Abstract

Haemoplasmosis is a bacterial infection in erythrocytes caused by Mycoplasma sp. This study aimed to report methods of diagnosis, therapy, and evaluation of therapy in cats with haemoplasmosis. The cat showed decreased appetite, conjunctivitis, presence of mucoid mucus on the eyes and nose, gum anemia with a capillary refill time of more than 2 seconds, high temperature, and weakness. Skin and hair examination reported infestations of Ctenocephalides felis and Lynxacarus sp. on the hair. Routine hematologic examination showed normochromic normocytic anemia, leukocytosis, neutrophilia, eosinophilia, lymphocytosis, monocytosis, and hypoalbuminemia. A blood test examination observed Mycoplasma sp. in erythrocyte cells so the cat was diagnosed with haemoplasmosis. Treatment was performed using Oxytetracycline long-acting at 20 mg/kg BW intramuscularly for 2 weeks and revealed support to recovery during the treatment period.

Abstract

This report aimed to provide information on the diagnosis, treatment, and therapeutic evaluation of Ehrlichiosis in crossbreed dogs treated using red fermented rice. A Shitzu-Pomeranian crossbreed was indicated with decreased appetite, weight loss, and the presence of high levels of pruritus due to suffering from blood parasites. Physical examination showed an infestation of Rhipicephalus sanguineus around the eyes and back area. A complete hematological examination and blood smear showed leukocytosis, lymphocytosis, thrombocytopenia, increased granulocytes, and the presence of intracytoplasmic bodies in monocytes. The results of the examination using the test kit showed that the sample was positive for Ehrlichiosis. Treatment using Doxycycline (5 mg/kg BW, for 28 days), Ivermectin 1% (0,2 ml SC), Diphenhydramine HCl 10 mg/kg (1,1 ml IM), Chlorpheniramine maleate (1 tablet/day for 14 days), Vitamin B12 (1 tablet/day for 28 days), and 5 ml of red fermented rice solution twice a day for 21 days. After 21 days, the whole treatment reported the appetite returned to normal, reduced infestation of R. sanguineus, and reduced frequency of pruritus.
