feldstudie zur therapie der felinen ohrraude verursacht durch Otodectes cynotis mit selamectin stronghold
Wiener Klinische Wochenschrift, 2010Co-Authors: W BeckAbstract:Die Ohrraude, verursacht durch Otodectes cynotis (HERING, 1858), ist eine sehr haufige Erkrankung des auseren Gehorganges bei Katzen. Otodectes cynotis kann als die verbreitetste Raudemilbe bei Fleischfressern angesehen werden. Fur die Behandlung konnen verschiedene Antiparasitika verwendet werden. Ziel der vorliegenden Wirksamkeitsstudie war die Evaluierung von Selamectin (Stronghold® Spot-on) bei der Tilgung von Ohrraudemilben bei Katzen unter Feldbedingungen. Es wurden 16 Katzen mit Ohrmilbenbefall (Otodectes cynotis), die in der regularen tierarztlichen Kleintiersprechstunde vorgestellt wurden, einmalig mit jeweils 6–17,3 mg/kg KM Selamectin (Stronghold® Spot-on) therapiert. Bei den Kontrollen am Tag 14 und Tag 28 post applicationem konnten bei keiner der Katzen mehr Ohrmilben oder deren Entwicklungsstadien nachgewiesen werden. Auch die klinischen Symptome waren bei zehn Tieren weitgehend abgeklungen. Das applizierte Selamectin (Stronghold® Spot-on) erzielte eine 100%ige Beseitigung der Otodectes-cynotis-Milben bei den therapierten Katzen. Die Spot-on-Applikation erwies sich als praktikable Anwendung zur Therapie der felinen Ohrraude. Der Wirkstoff wurde von allen Patienten sehr gut vertragen, ohne dass lokale Hautirritationen an der Applikationsstelle auftraten.

Feldstudie zur Therapie der Felinen Ohrräude verursacht durch Otodectes cynotis mit Selamectin (Stronghold^®)
Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2010Co-Authors: W BeckAbstract:Otacariasis due to Otodectes cynotis (HERING, 1858) is a very frequent disease of the external ear canal in cats. Otodectes cynotis is the most common mange mite in carnivores. Several antiparasiticides are licensed for treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a formulation containing selamectin (Stronghold^® Spot-on) for eradication of ear mites in cats under field conditions. Sixteen cats with otacariasis, presented in a small animal clinic, were treated with a single spot-on application of selamectin (Stronghold^® Spot-on, 6–17.3 mg/kg bdw.). On clinical and parasitological assessment days 14 and 28 clinical signs had subsided in ten cats. Furthermore all ear swabs were negative for mites and their developmental stages on D 14 and D 28. Selamectin was a practical and well-tolerated treatment of feline otacariasis for the cats included in this study. It was very well tolerated in all cats, local skin irritations on the neck did not occur. Die Ohrräude, verursacht durch Otodectes cynotis (HERING, 1858), ist eine sehr häufige Erkrankung des äußeren Gehörganges bei Katzen. Otodectes cynotis kann als die verbreitetste Räudemilbe bei Fleischfressern angesehen werden. Für die Behandlung können verschiedene Antiparasitika verwendet werden. Ziel der vorliegenden Wirksamkeitsstudie war die Evaluierung von Selamectin (Stronghold^® Spot-on) bei der Tilgung von Ohrräudemilben bei Katzen unter Feldbedingungen. Es wurden 16 Katzen mit Ohrmilbenbefall ( Otodectes cynotis ), die in der regulären tierärztlichen Kleintiersprechstunde vorgestellt wurden, einmalig mit jeweils 6–17,3 mg/kg KM Selamectin (Stronghold^® Spot-on) therapiert.

Perfil clínico e microbiológico de cães com e sem otoacaríase
Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2015Co-Authors: Clarissa Pimentel De Souza, M.m.s. Souza, Fabio Barbour ScottAbstract:The goals of this study were to identify microorganisms in dogs' ear canals through cytological and microbiological examination, and evaluate their association with otoacariasis and its clinical signs. Otodectes cynotis infestation diagnosis was achieved by bilateral otoscopy, and by parasite viewing on cerumem under stereoscopic microscope, representing the parasitological exam. Ear discharge was also collected from each canal to fix cytology slides and for microbiological isolation, but this last sample was collected with sterile swab. Among the 250 studied animals, 15 (6%) had ear mites. There was an association between the parasite and external clinical otitis specially as established by auricular erythema (P

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2008Co-Authors: Clarissa Pimentel De Souza, Fabio Barbour Scott, Regina Ruckert Ramadinha, Maria Julia Salim PereiraAbstract:O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os fatores associados a prevalencia da infestacao por Otodectes cynotis em caes atendidos no Setor de Dermatologia do Hospital Veterinario de Pequenos Animais, Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro. Foram atendidos 250 caes, sendo o diagnostico feito atraves de visualizacao do acaro, presente no cerumem coletado e examinado sob microscopia esterioscopica. Todos os proprietarios dos caes foram entrevistados para preenchimento de fichas individuais com dados dos animais e do ambiente em que estes viviam. A infestacao por O. cynotis foi observada em 15 animais, sendo a prevalencia de 6%. A associacao entre as variaveis e a presenca dos acaros foi testada atraves do χ2 e quando pertinente pelo teste de Fisher exato. Nao houve evidencias que permitissem concluir que a idade (p = 0,20), o sexo (p = 0,31), a raca (p = 0,50), o formato das orelhas (p = 0,66), o tipo (p = 0,19) e comprimento da pelagem (p = 0,14) e, o convivio com outros animais (p = 0,06) poderiam atuar como possiveis fatores de risco para a infestacao. Entretanto, o ambiente em que viviam os animais (p = 0,03) e a frequencia de limpeza (p = 0,005) parecem propiciar a infestacao. A ocorrencia de prurido esteve associada a presenca dos acaros (p

miticidal efficacy of thiabendazole against Otodectes cynotis hering 1838 in dogs
Revista brasileira de parasitologia veterinaria = Brazilian journal of veterinary parasitology : Orgao Oficial do Colegio Brasileiro de Parasitologia , 2006Co-Authors: Clarissa Pimentel De Souza, Thaís Ribeiro Correia, Raquel M.p.s. Melo, Guilherme G. Verocai, Douglas Dos S.e. Castro, Maíra Cruz Holanda Cavalcanti, Fabio Barbour ScottAbstract:The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of thiabendazole on the treatment of Otodectes cynotis infestations in dogs. Ten naturally infested beagle dogs were used. The mites were diagnosed through otoscopy. Dogs were examined three days before treatment (day -3) and on the treatment day (day 0). They were randomly divided into two groups, five animals for the control group and five for the treated. During seven days, was applied in both ears of the treated dogs 1ml of the thiabendazole 5% solution, which correspond to 50mg of the product. All animals were reexamined through otoscopy on days +1, +3, +7, +10, +17, +24 and +31. The dogs on the control group showed mites in both ears during the whole period of observation. On the treated group the efficacy varied from 20% on the left ear to 80% on the right ear, on the first day after treatment. On days +3, +7, +10, +17, +24 and +31 the medium efficacy was 100% on both ears. The thiabendazole was efficient on the elimination of O. cynotis in dogs when used on the dose of 50mg per ear during seven following days.

Urban stray cats infested by ectoparasites with zoonotic potential in Greece
Parasitology Research, 2015Co-Authors: Menelaos A. Lefkaditis, Anna V. Sossidou, Alexandros H. Panorias, Smaragda E. Koukeri, Anamaria I. Paştiu, Labrini V. AthanasiouAbstract:A large population of stray cats is encountered in many urban areas sharing the same environment with people, usually being in a close direct contact with them. A variety of ectoparasites can infest such cats, causing mild dermatological abnormalities to more severe systemic disorders. In order to determine the extent of which stray cats carry ectoparasites, particularly those of zoonotic potential, 341 stray cats originating from the urban area of Thessaloniki, Greece, were examined between 2012 and 2014. The signalment of each cat such as gender, hair length, and roughly estimated age were recorded. From a total of 341 examined stray cats, 127 (37.24 %; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 32.14–42.64) were infested with at least one of the following ectoparasites: mites— Otodectes cynotis (15.8 %), Notoedres cati (2.35 %), Cheyletiella blakei (2.05 %); fleas— Ctenocephalides felis (24.3 %); ticks— Rhipicephalus sanguineus (0.88 %); and lice— Felicola subrostratus (0.59 %). A significantly higher prevalence of ectoparasites was observed in long-haired individuals ( p

Efficacy of fluralaner against Otodectes cynotis infestations in dogs and cats
Parasites & Vectors, 2017Co-Authors: Janina Taenzler, Rainer K. A. Roepke, Régis Frénais, Anja R. HeckerothAbstract:Background The efficacy of fluralaner for the treatment of Otodectes cynotis infestations in dogs and cats was evaluated after oral (dogs) or topical administration (dogs and cats). Twenty-four dogs and sixteen cats were experimentally infested with O. cynotis and randomly allocated to equal sized groups ( n = 8/group). Dog groups were treated once, either orally with fluralaner at a minimum dose of 25 mg/kg body weight, topically with fluralaner at a dose of 25 mg/kg body weight or topically with saline solution (control). Cat groups were treated once, either topically with fluralaner at a dose of 40 mg/kg body weight or topically with saline solution. Ears of all animals were examined otoscopically for live visible mites and the amount of debris and cerumen before, and 14 and 28 days after treatment. Twenty-eight days after treatment, animals were sedated and both ears were flushed to obtain the total number of live mites per animal. The efficacy was calculated, based on the results of the ear flushing, by comparing mean live mite counts in the fluralaner treated groups versus the saline solution treated group. Results A single topical treatment of cats with fluralaner reduced the mean mite counts by 100% ( P

The efficacy was calculated, based on the results of the ear flushing, by comparing mean live mite counts in the fluralaner treated groups versus the saline solution treated group. A single topical treatment of cats with fluralaner reduced the mean mite counts by 100% (P < 0.001) at 28 days after treatment. Similarly, a single oral or topical treatment of dogs with fluralaner reduced the mean mite counts by 99.8% (P < 0.001) at 28 days after treatment. Cats treated topically with fluralaner had no mites visible during otoscopic examination at either 14 or 28 days after treatment. All dogs treated orally or topically with fluralaner had no mites visible during otoscopic examination at 28 days after treatment. At 14 days after treatment, only 1–2 mites were visible in three dogs (oral treatment: 2 dogs, topical treatment: 1 dog). All fluralaner-treated animals showed improvement in the amount of cerumen exudation compared with observations performed before treatment. No treatment related adverse events were observed in any dogs or cats enrolled in these studies. In this study, fluralaner administered topically to cats and orally or topically to dogs was highly effective against Otodectes cynotis mite infestations.
