Canine distemper virus

Også kendt som: CDV Infection, Canine Distemper Virus Infection, Hard pad disease

DogFerretHastighed: High

Kort sagt

Canine distemper is a highly contagious, severe viral disease affecting dogs and ferrets. It attacks multiple body systems, including the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and nervous systems, often leading to irreversible neurological damage. Understanding its signs, diagnostic process, and the critical importance of vaccination is essential for every pet owner.

Canine distemper is a highly contagious viral disease that causes severe lethargy and systemic illness.

TL;DR. Meget smitsom, livstruende virusinfektion hos hund og ilder med skade på luftveje, mave-tarm og nervesystem; ofte permanente neurologiske følger.

Alvorlig systemisk sygdom med udtalt letargi.

Hvad er det?

Morbillivirus (CDV). Rammer lymfoidt, nerve- og epitelvæv. Faser: lymfopeni/feber, derefter luftveje/GI/hud/øjne, ofte CNS. Intet kurativt antiviral.

Årsager og risikofaktorer

Aerosol og kropsvæsker.

"CDV is shed in respiratory secretions for up to 90 days after infection. Initial replication of CDV is in lymphoid tissue, and viral destruction of lymphocytes results in lymphopenia and pyrexia."

Uvaccinerede hvalpe 6-12 uger højeste risiko; ildere næsten 100% dødeligt. Ingen raceprædisposition.

Tegn

  • Myoklonus (kardinal)
  • Almindelige: feber, depression, mukopurulent næseflåd, hoste, opkast/diarré, pustler, hyperkeratose (hard pad), kramper, ataksi
  • Lejlighedsvis: uveitis, optikusneuritis, KCS, emaljehypoplasi

Hyperkeratose af trædepuder er klassisk.

Diagnostik

CBC (lymfopeni), thoraxrøntgen, konjunktivalcytologi, RT-PCR (guldstandard), IHC, evt. CSF.

A digital X-ray monitor displaying a dog's chest radiograph.
Thoraxrøntgen vurderer sekundær pneumoni.

Behandling

Kun støttende: IV-væske, antibiotika mod sekundærinfektion, respirationsstøtte, antiemetika, antikonvulsiva. Glucocorticoids selektivt. Streng isolation.

Prognose

Ofte dårlig, især ved CNS-tegn.

"CNS disease is generally progressive and carries a poor prognosis; it can develop in some dogs that never had systemic signs of disease recognized."

Forebyggelse

Core-vaccine hvalpe + boostere; ilder-specifik vaccine; karantæne; desinfektion.

Hvornår ringe til dyrlæge

Akut: kramper/myoklonus; alvorlig åndenød; gulgrønt flåd; kollaps; alvorlige GI-tegn; pludselig blindhed.
