Topic:Respiratory Health

Respiratory health in horses encompasses the study of the equine respiratory system, its function, and the various conditions that can affect it. The respiratory system in horses includes the upper airways, lungs, and associated structures, which facilitate gas exchange and are vital for maintaining physiological homeostasis during rest and exercise. Common respiratory conditions in horses include equine asthma, infectious diseases like strangles, and exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH). These conditions can impact a horse's performance and overall health. This page compiles peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore the anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, and management of respiratory health in horses.

I 966.—Horses with clinical signs of chronic pulmonary emphysema were demonstrated to have heart rates, total peripheral vascular resistance, pulmonary vascular resistance, and mean pulmonary artery blood pres-sure highly significantly greater than normal. They also had a highly significant decrease in central blood volume, stroke volume, stroke index, and left ventricular work. Cardiac out-put was significantly lower than in control (normal) h...

Observations on Heaves: An Asthma-Like Syndrome in the Horse.

The Journal of allergy July 1, 1964 Volume 35 322-330 doi: 10.1016/0021-8707(64)90095-4

LOWELL FC.Observations in six horses with heaves established a clear relationship between attacks of heaves and the feeding of hay. Severe acute attacks were accompanied by striking changes in the eosinophil count and the sedimentation rate. The variation in the severity of heaves in relation to the feeding and withholding of hay is accounted for by assuming that attacks result from a transient, obstructive lesion in the bronchial tree or lung caused by hypersensitivity to some component of hay. The observations strongly suggest that heaves is a respiratory allergic disease in the horse. The relation of...
