Canine distemper has been associated with neurologic signs?

Yes!


1. Hypersalivation


2. Muscle twitching


3. Seizures


4. Jaw chomping = looks like their chewing gum


- ataxia (can’t move)


- paresis


- hyperesthesia (extreme sensitivity to the skin or eyes) very painful to pet your dog

What clinical signs are associated with canine distemper in a later stage of the disease?

Hyperkeratosis (thickening of the outer layer of the skin) e.g. calluses

What does CDV stand for?

Canine distemper virus

Which age is more susceptible to CDV?

Dogs of any age

Who is more at risk of contracting CDV?

Puppies and immune compromised dogs are more at risk


- disease can also affect wildlife; foxes, raccoons, ferrets, big cats, skunks, wolves, and ferrets.

The CDV is shedded from what part of the animal?

The virus is shed mostly from the respiratory tract.


Can be shed through all secretions area.

Does CDV survive in the environment for long periods of time?

No! Not stable

Is CDV a core vaccine?

Yes!

The CDV is available in what type of constitution?

Recombinant


Modified live

The CDV vaccine is part of vaccine protocol?

DA2PP


Dhpp

Core vaccines

DA2PPV


Rabies

Core vaccines

DA2PPV


- canine distemper virus


- adenovirus- 2


-parvovirus


- parainfluenza virus?


Parainfluenza is not considered core but it is often in combination with the DA2PPV


Rabies

Non core vaccine

Bordetella bronchiseptica


- parainfluenza virus


Leptospira


- leptospirosis


Borrelia burgdorferi


- Lyme disease


Canine influenza virus


Crotallus atrox


- rattlesnake vaccine


Canine Coronavirus

Who makes the vaccine guidelines?

AAHA


American animal hospital association

What is the name of the organization that is involved with a lot of shelter médecine?

UCDavis


University of California-Davis

Is parainfluenza a vaccine by itself?

No!


It usually tags along with other virus in the vaccine.

Is CDV a highly contagious virus?

Be careful if :


1. Work at a clinic that does exotics animals


2. Dogs in a distemper prone area

What are the proper precautions to prevent transfer of disease?

Ppe?

What is one area that is prone to CDV?

Shelters!


Non vaccinated dogs! City


Puppy mills

By the time the dog hits the neurological signs what is probable?

Death 😭

J

J

If they do survive CDV the ocular discharge to the neurological signs what happens?

Hyperkeratosis


Thickening pass on feet


Looks like Dirty/ Stained teeth- not proper covering on them called enamel hypoplasia


Puppy- multiple teeth

Where would you see a puppy with enamel hypoplasia?

Mother who was effected (in utero)

What is the diagnosis?

By clinical signs:


Nasal discharge. Ocular signs. Neurological signs with a combination with an animal that has no vaccine history.


CBC result:


- lymphopenia (low lymphocyte count)


- leukopenia ( love white blood cell count)


Radiographs:


It can show pneumonia


Confirmation of (outside lab) PCR & IFA:


Conjunctival swabs


Tracheal swabs


CSF or bone marrow aspirated


cerebrospinal fluid-General anesthesia


Bone marrow aspirates- take a biopsy of the liquid of the soft tissue inside the bone.


Necropsy: IFA and PCR


Transition of CDV?

Aerosolized

What is the most common spread of the virus CDV?

Aerosolized


Direct contact with secretions


Fomites/ multiple surfaces that virus can stay

Which area is prone to be easilly spread of the virus CDV?

Daycare


Shelters


Dog parks

Treatment for CDV?

1. Isolation


2. Fluid therapy- diarrhea


3. Antibiotics - treatment and prevention of secondary bacterial infections


4. Maybe- antivirals


5. Nutrition- parenteral/ small frequent meals / highly digestable


6. Symptomatic:


Treat the fever


Analgesics- to make them feel better


Antiemetic- stop the vomiting


Anticonvulsants- stop the seizures


Nursing care:


High level of nursing care


Frequent bedding changes


Sponge baths/ cleaning nose and eyes frequently


Regular physical assessment


IV catheters & fluid maintenance


TLC



Things to think about with a seizure dogs and IV maintenance

They can reap out the IV fluid

Prognosis CDV

Guarded- cautious not the greatest chance


Early detection is key!


May improve outcome but viral disease no cure


Once neurological signs are present- it is often too late and fatal

Prevention

Limiting outdoor exposure to puppies until 16 weeks of age.


Vaccinate!

Tirers check are?

Reasonable assessment of protective immunity for distemper

The vaccination scheduled for CDV?

6-8 weeks


Every 3 or 4 weeks


Until 16-20 weeks


A year later


Revaccinate every 3 years or tirers check.
