dc.description.abstractThe present study was carried out with the objectives to study the period prevalence of canine respiratory tract disorders (CRTD), to understand lungs physiology in relation to associated pathology in canine respiratory tract disorders and to explore therapeutic options for better management of CRTD. Total of 66 dogs with RTD were presented between July 2021 to June 2022 to VCC, out of which 39 cases were undergone detailed investigations and treatment trial (n=27) according to approved protocol of the study. The period prevalence of CRTD, URTD and LRTD was 2.66%, 17.95% and 82.05%, respectively. The highest prevalence of CRTD, URTD and LRTD was recorded in male dogs of less than 2 years of age during peak winter months. Non-descript, Pug and Labrador were the most commonly affected breeds with CRTD, URTD and LRTD, respectively. Coughing and nasal discharge were the most common clinical signs in dogs with CRTD. The hematobiochemical findings reveal a significant leukocytosis with neutrophilia, hyperproteinemia due to hyperglobulinemia and decreased A:G ratio. ABG analysis revealed a significant decrease in the PaO2, PF ratio and the sum of PaO2 and PaCO2 and a significant increase in the A-a gradient. Radiographic findings revealed bronchial, alveolar and mixed patterns. Endoscopy findings revealed hyperemia of the trachea and bronchi. Amoxycillin-clavulanic acid was the most sensitive on AST. In group 2 significant improvement was noticed in the clinical and respiratory score card, leucogram, protein profile and oxygenation parameters on day 6 of therapy as compared to group 1 and3.en_US
