Sažetak
Virusni arteritis konja (EVA) je zarazna bolest kopitara koju uzrokuje Equine Artheritis Virus (EAV) i raširena je u većini država sveta gde se vrši dijagnostika. Infekcija najčešće protiče asimptomatski. Klinički znaci bolesti ukazuju na respiratornu infekciju različitog intenziteta a prisutni su i abortusi u različitim stadijumima gestacije. Velika raširenost ovog oboljenja u svetu predstavlja sve veći ekonomski problem. Bolest je specifična za vrstu i od nje oboljevaju isključivo kopitari (konji, magarci, mule, mazge i zebre). U zemljama gde je zaraza potvrđena, procenat pozitivnih životinja je različit. Isto tako, postoje razlike u procentu pozitivnih životinja među pojedinim rasama. Največi procenat pozitivnih životinja nađen je kod kasača, a najmanji kod hladnokrvnjaka.
Abstract
Equine viral arteritis (EVA) is a contagious disease of equids caused by equine artheritis virus (EAV), widespread in most countries in the world, where patients are diagnosed. The infection usually starts asymptomatic. Clinical signs indicate respiratory infection of different intensity and also abortions are present at different stages of gestation. Large prevalence of this disease in the world has become a growing economic problem. The disease is specific to a particular kind of animals, and it affects only equids (horses, donkeys, mules, mule and zebras). In countries where the infection has been confirmed, the percentage of positive animals differ. Likewise, there is difference in percentage among certain animal kinds. The highest percentage of positive animals has been found in totters and the lowest in cold-blooded.
