What you need to know about brucellosis

Brucellosis - infectious disease caused
Brucellians - small pathogenic bacteria. Man infects OT
Pets (cows, sheep, goats, pigs) when leaving them
(Veterinary workers, milking and so.) or when used
infected products - milk, little weathered cheese, bad
wrapped or roasted meat. Pathogen penetrating the body
through the digestive tract, cracks, scratches and other damage to
leather or mucous membrane, then apply to lymphatic
paths and blood vessels, which makes anyone anyone

The place of attaching tendon muscles arise the formation of a cartilaginous
consistency (fibrosits) magnitude with lentil and larger. They are
The cause of pain in the joints, bones, muscles. Consequences
brucellosis can acquire persistent and irreversible character
temporary or constant disability.

Incubation period about 14 days. The body responds to the infection
increasing range of lymphatic glands, liver and spleen. In their way
the flow of brucellosis can be sharp (2 months lasts.), subacle (from 2 to
4-5 months.) and chronic, including recurrent and generation
infections (bacteremia) - lasts up to 2 years, sometimes longer.

The development of the disease is manifested by common malaise, loss
appetite, bad sleep. Patients complain of pain in the joints, lower back,
muscles. Temperature of the body gradually (3-7 days) rises to 39C,
Taking further wave. Sweat rich, humidity
skin, especially palms, is observed even with a decrease in temperature to
Normal.

After 20-30 days from the beginning of the disease, the well-being of patients
worsens, they have pain, mainly in large joints
- knee, then hip, ankle, shoulder, less often
elbow. The size and shape of the joint is changed, its outlines
smoothed, soft fabrics, his surrounding, inflamed, swell. Leather
Around the joint is empty, it can acquire a pink shade, sometimes
There are different characters of Roseolo-Papulse.

Later without appropriate treatment, numerous violations

Pathological symptoms from the nervous system, patients grow
become irritable, capricious, even plastic. They are tormented
Neuralgic pains, Ishias, Radiculitis. In some are observed
Beaming genitals. Men brucellosis can be complicated by orchites,
epididimitis. Women have adnexites, endometritis, mastitis, spontaneous miscarriages. From the side of the blood - anemia, leukopenia with lymphocytosis, monocytosis, an increase in soe.

Helps carefully assembled history, taking into account epizootological
Furnishing and concrete circumstances of infection, laboratory tests
(Pattern of peripheral blood, serological and allergic reactions).
Confirm the diagnosis of special bacteriological research.
The disease must be distinguished with the abdominal typhoid, sepsis, infectious
mononucleosis, with rheumatic polyarthritis. In all cases you need
keep in mind typical precisely for brucellosis complications, for example,
Orchitis.

The most efficient means are antibiotics. Tetracycline 1
Inside 4-5 times a day at 0.3 g with night intervals for adults. Well
Treatment with these doses up to 2 days of temperature normalization. Then dose
decreases to 0.3 g 3 times a day for 10-12 days. Considering
The duration of the treatment rate of tetracycline, as a result of which they can
Allergic reactions arise, a number of side effects and even
complications caused by the activation of the crank tremendous mushrooms,
At the same time prescribe antifungal agents (nastatin),
Desensitizing preparations (Dimedrol, Supratip), Vitamins. Patient
Approach single-log blood or plasma transfusion. Spend
vaccine therapy that stimulates the body's immunity to the causative agent and
Promotes overcoming infection. The course consists of 8 intravenous
Introductions to therapeutic vaccine with 3-4 day intervals. Before starting the course
experience the degree of sensitivity of the patient to the vaccine, watching
The flow of hours a reaction to the first test injection that should be
moderately pronounced, with a shock reaction to carry out vaccine therapy
follow.

In the attenuation stage of the island phenomena, prescribe therapeutic
Physical culture, appliques for paraffin joints in warm form. With counter
Remissions - resort treatment, taking into account the existing contraindications.

Combines a number of veterinary and health events. In farms, be sure to separate animals, patients with brucellosis.
Their slaughter with subsequent processing of meat on canned food
accompanied by autoclaving. Meat can be consumed and eating after
his cooking in small pieces for 3 hours or a bun with
withstand in brine at least 70 days. Milk from cows and goats in
terrain where there are cases of a disease of large and small livestock,
consume only boiling. All dairy products (Prostokvasha,
Cottage cheese, kefir, cream, oil) should be prepared from pasteurized
milk. Brynez cooked from sheep milk withstand in
For 70 days.

For the prevention of professional infection when care for patients
Animals must comply with all precautions (wearing
Rubber boots, gloves, special bathrobes, aprons).
An abortion of the fruit of the animal is buried into a hole on a depth of 2 m, fall asleep
Lime, the room is disinfected. In the fight against distribution
