Özet
Öz Amaç: Bu çalışma Atatürk Üniversitesi Hayvan Hastanesine getirilen ve barınakta bakılan köpeklerde kanin parvovirüsün (CPV) prevalansını ve risk faktörlerini araştırmayı amaçladı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Örnekler CPV enfeksiyonunun klinik bulgularını gösteren barınakta bakılan 83 köpek ve hayvan hastanesine getirilen 17 köpekten elde edildi. Hızlı testle incelenen 100 köpeğin 40’ının dışkı örneği (%40) CPV varlığı için pozitifti ve 60 dışkı örneği (%60) negatifti. Bulgular: Bu çalışmada CPV varlığı ve aşılama durumu, barınma yeri, barınma ortamının temizlenme sıklığı, antelmentik sağaltımı ayrıca iştahsızlık, kusma, dehidrasyon ve karın ağrısı bulguları arasında önemli ilişkinin olduğu belirlendi. Öneri: Bu çalışmada bütün köpekler gençti (1.5-7.5 aylık yaş aralığında) ve ev ve bahçe dışında serbest dolaşan sokak köpekleriyle temasları vardı. Dolayısıyla sokak köpekleriyle temas, CPV prevalansının yüksek olmasında önemli rolü olabilir. Ayrıca Erzurum ilinde CPV enfeksiyonunun yaygın dolaşımı ve risk faktörleri dikkate alınarak etkili korunma uygulamalarının gerçekleştirilmesi gerekir.
Abstract Aim: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of canine parvovirus (CPV) infection in dogs that were presented to Animal Hospital of Atatürk University and housed in shelter. Materials and Methods: The samples were obtained from 83 dogs kept animal shelter and 17 dogs presented animal hospital showing clinical signs of CPV infection. The 40 stool samples of 100 dogs (40%) examined by the rapid test were positive for the presence of CPV, and the 60 stool samples (60%) were negative. Results: In this study, it was determined that there was an important association between the presence of CPV and vaccination status, housing place, cleanliness frequency of housing place, anthelmintic treatment as well as anorexia, vomiting, dehydration and abdominal pain findings. Conclusion: All the dogs in this study were young (1.5 to 7.5 months’ age range) and had contact with free-roaming stray dogs outside the house and garden. Thus, contact with stray dogs might play an important role in the increased prevalence of CPV. Also, the effective prevention practices should be implemented considering risk factors and common circulation of CPV infection in Erzurum province.
