Effects of xylazine on airway function in ponies with recurrent airway obstruction

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1992
SUMMARY The effect of iv administration of the α2-adrenoceptor agonist xylazine hydrochloride (0.5 mg/kg of body weight) was examined in ponies with recurrent obstructive pulmonary disease, commonly called heaves. Six ponies with the disease (principals) were studied during clinical remission and during an acute attack of airway obstruction ...

Diagnosis of Recurrent Intermittent Airway Obstruction (“Recurrent Croup”) in Children

Annals of Otology, Rhinology and Laryngology, 2001
Children with a history of recurrent intermittent airway obstruction can present with a constellation of signs and symptoms labeled by their primary care physician as “recurrent croup.” Recurrent croup, however, is not a diagnosis and should alert the clinician to the potential for intrinsic or extrinsic laryngotracheal pathology.

In vitro responses of distal airways in horses with recurrent airway obstruction

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1991
Summary Distal airway segments (id, 3 to 4 mm; length, 5 mm) from 2 groups of horses were isolated and suspended in tissue baths filled with Krebs solution, aerated with 5% CO2 in oxygen and maintained at 37 C. Responses to exogenous acetylcholine, isoproterenol, or electrical field stimulation were compared.

Effects of furosemide on ponies with recurrent airway obstruction

Pulmonary Pharmacology, 1991
The effect of aerosol and intravenous administrations of furosemide was examined in ponies with recurrent obstructive pulmonary disease, commonly called 'heaves'. This recurrent airway disease bears many similarities to human asthma. Six ponies with the disease (principal animals) were studied during clinical remission and during an acute attack of ...

Recurrent airway obstruction—heaves

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2003
Heaves, or recurrent airway obstruction (RAO), is a chronic respiratory disease featuring lower airway inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and mucus accumulation. Inhaled organic dusts and T helper 2 type immunologic reactions are involved in the complex pathophysiology of RAO. Clinical signs vary and alternate with remission periods.

A novel model for equine recurrent airway obstruction

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2002
Equine recurrent airway obstruction (RAO; a term combining both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and summer pasture associated obstructive pulmonary disease (SPAOPD)) is one of the most common equine respiratory diseases with up to 50% of horses affected worldwide.

Coughing, mucus accumulation, airway obstruction, and airway inflammation in control horses and horses affected with recurrent airway obstruction

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2003
Abstract Objective—To investigate relationships between cough frequency and mucus accumulation, airway obstruction, and airway inflammation and to determine effects of dexamethasone on coughing and mucus score. Animals—13 horses with recurrent airway obstruction( RAO and 6 control horses.
