Suresh, Gonde | Sushma, Chhabra | Singla, L. D. | Randhawa, C. S.
A comprehensive study was conducted on the clinical observationsincluding clinical history, physical examination along with haematobiochemical alteration on 41 naturally occurring cases of canine babesiosis from Punjab state, India. Examination of 964 dogs revealed 4.25 percent (41/964) prevalence of the disease including 3.84 percent (37) B. gibsoni and 0.41 percent (4) B. canis infected cases. Clinical and parasitological diagnosis was finally confirmed by polymerase chain reaction. A large variation of clinical anifestations including rare findings of paraplegia, blindness, ocular bleeding, immune mediated haemolytic anaemia (IMHA), ascites and skin lesions were observed among the affected animals. Bloodfilms showed anisocytosis and nucleated erythrocytes indicating regenerative anaemia. Blood parameters of the affected dogs revealed significant decrease in Hb, TEC, PCV and thrombocytes. Significantdecrease in lymphocytes was found in B. gibsoni affected animals. The affected dogs showed significant increase in serum bilirubin, ALT, AKP, BUN and creatinine. Haemato-biochemical observations wereindicative of severity of babesiosis in dogs.

A study was conducted inthe Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex,College of Veterinary Animal Sciences,Mannuthy to evaluate the efficacy ofclindamycin as potential monotherapytreatment plan for Babesia gibsoni infectionin dogs during the period from January2013 to March 2014. Dogs of variousbreeds and age groups belonging to bothsexes diagnosed of having Babesia gibsoniinfection by blood smear examination andconfirmed by PCR were selected for thestudy. These animals were treated withclindamycin @ 11mg/kg bw IV q24hr for10 days and supported with haematinics.All animals showed clinical cure withimprovement in appetite and physicalactivity, increase in haematologicalparameters including platelet count andimprovement in serum chemistry values.
