| Disease Description |
In diarrhoea, the intestine fails to adequately absorb fluids, and/or secretion into the intestine is increased. Loss of fluids through diarrhoea produces dehydration and the loss of certain body salts. Diarrhoea causes a change in body tissue composition and severe depression in the animal. |
| Disease Control |
Depending on the cause of diarrhoea, treatment options may include responsible use of antibiotics or anthelminthics, anti-inflammatories, rehydration fluids, vaccination, mineral supplementation and ration management. Note that antibiotics are only useful if the cause is a bacterial infection. |
| Disease Prevention |
Prevention. Identifying the cause of diarrhoea in the herd will allow you to make a sound plan about how to prevent or minimise the effect. This can include reviewing rations, grazing plans, worm management and biosecurity practices. |
| Precautions |
|
| Procedure of Use |
To treat the problem, use 10 leaves of "Gandhati" (Oplismenus burmanii), which is mixed with the paste of maize (Zea mays). This mixture is fed to the affected animal for thrice a day. If the animal is not cured, then the treatment is continued for the second or third day.
It is a traditional practice learnt from forefathers and has been in use from last 70 years. |
| Etiology Causative Agent |
Infectious causes include: worms. viruses (e.g. bovine viral diarrhoea virus) bacteria (e.g. Salmonella or Yersinia - see the Bacterial diarrhoea heading below) |
| Global Context |
Spread world wide |
| Lesson Implication |
Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is most common in young cattle (6–24 mo old). ... distinguished from other viral diseases that produce diarrhea and mucosal lesions. |
