Bangladeş Dhaka’da Merkez Hayvan Hastanesine Getirilen Kedi ve Köpeklerin Sağlık Durumlarının Prevalansı

Abstract

Bu araştırmada 2014 yılı Haziran ve Temmuz aylarında 2 aylık bir süre boyunca Dhaka (Bangladeş) Merkezi Hayvan Hastanesi’ne getirilen kedi ve köpeklerde sağlık durumunun prevalansının ortaya konulması amacıyla kesitsel prospektif çalışıldı. Hastaneye getirilen 450 (%75) köpek ve 150 kedi (%25) olmak üzere toplam 600 klinik vakanın farklı klinik durumları değerlerdirildi. Klinik durumlar, prevalans, yaş, cinsiyet ve üreme özellikleri temel alınarak değerlendirildi. Yapılan uygulamalar arasında 325 (%72.22) köpek ve 103 (%68.67) kedi olmak üzere en yüksek düzeyde uygulamanın tıbbi müdahale olduğu; bunu 65 (%14.44) köpek ve 24 (%16.0) kedi ile cerrahi vakaların takip ettiği ve bunu da 60 (%13.33) köpek ve 23 (%15.33) kedi ile de aşılama ve sağlık kontrolünün izlediği belirlendi. Tıbbi vakalar içerisinde en yüksek prevalans 78 (%17.33) köpek ve 25 (%16.67) kedi ile özel duyu organ hastalıklarında gözlendi. Köpeklerde (≤6 ay) ve erkek kedilerde yapılan aşılama ve sağlık kontrolllerinin prevalansı istatistiksel olarak önemli (P≤0.05) bulunmuştır. Ayrıca erkek kediler ve ekzotik hayvanlarda non-infeksiyöz hastalıkların prevalansı istatistiksel olarak önemli düzeyde (P≤0.05) bulunmuştur. Bu bulgular, köpeklerde ve kedilerde aşılama uygulamalarının, hayvan sahiplerinin sosyo-ekonomik durumlarına ve Dhaka’daki farklı bölgelerin yönetim değişikliklerine bağlı olarak değiştiğini göstermiştir

A total of 600 clinical cases, 450 (75%) dogs and 150 (25%) cats were observed with different clinical conditions. Prevalence of clinical conditions was analyzed on the basis of age, sex and breed. It was revealed that highest number of dogs 325 (72.22%) and cats 103 (68.67%) occupied in Medicinal cases followed by surgical cases 65 (14.44%) in dogs and 24 (16%) in cats and vaccination and health check up 60 (13.33%) in dogs and 23 (15.33%) in cats. Among of the medicinal cases special sense organ diseases occupied highest prevalence 78 (17.33%) in dogs and 25 (16.67%) in cats. Prevalence of vaccination and health check up condition in dogs (≤6 month) and male cats was higher with significant P-value (P ≤ 0.05). Another prevalence of non infectious diseases in exotic breed and male cats was higher (P ≤ 0.05). These findings address the vaccination practice in dogs and cats, variation of management within different topography in Dhaka and socio economic condition of owners
