Disease Management of Dairy Calves and Heifers 2008-03-31 .txt text/plain 5723 267 48 This article focuses on the most important diseases of dairy calves and heifers and presents clinical approaches that can improve detection, diagnosis, and treatment of herd-based problems. As shown in Table 2 , fecal shedding results show evidence of increased exposure to C parvum and Salmonella newport in a herd with calf diarrhea problems in 9-day-old calves. For herd problems of enteric disease in calves, bedding materials from each environment that has housed calves are submitted both for bacterial counts (University of Minnesota Laboratory for Udder Health, Minnesota Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, St. Paul, MN) and Salmonella spp culture. In investigating a dairy calf or heifer pneumonia problem, the review of records to determine morbidity and mortality data, seasonal patterns, health, management, housing, number of calves at maximum occupancy, nutrition, vaccinations, procedures, case definition, and treatment protocols is important. ./cache/cord-257418-cyul92w0.txt ./txt/cord-257418-cyul92w0.txt
