Miau Katzen-Podcast - für Katzenfreunde, die ihre Katze wirklich glücklich machen möchten
Es ist noch gar nicht so lange her, dass die Feline infektiöse Peritonitis, kurz FIP, für betroffene Katzen ein Todesurteil war. Mittlerweile gibt es jedoch ein Medikament, welches an FIP-erkrankte Katzen heilen kann. Tierärztin Katharina Zwickelbauer hat sich jüngst in einer Studie mit der Behandlung der FIP befasst. In dieser Podcast-Folge teilt sie mit uns ihre aktuellen Erkenntnisse aus der Forschung und zeigt auf, welche Möglichkeiten es derzeit für betroffene Katzen gibt. Wichtige Punkte aus der Podcast-Folge: 1. Medikamentöse Behandlung: Es gibt ein Medikament, GS-441524, das FIP erfolgreich behandeln kann. 2. Studien und Forschung: Dr. Katharina Zwicklbauer und ihr Team an der LMU München führen Studien durch, um die Wirksamkeit und Sicherheit der Behandlung zu gewährleisten. 3. Diagnose von FIP: Die Diagnose von FIP ist komplex und erfordert mehrere Tests und die Berücksichtigung verschiedener Faktoren wie Symptome, Blutwerte und mögliche Stressfaktoren. 4. Therapieablauf: Die Therapie dauert in der Regel 42 Tage mit einer oralen Medikation. Die ersten drei Tage werden die Katzen stationär aufgenommen, danach erfolgt die Behandlung zu Hause. 5. Erfolge der Therapie: Die Studien zeigen, dass die Katzen nach der Therapie geheilt sind und keine Virusnachweise mehr haben. 6. Legale Behandlungsmöglichkeiten: Aktuell ist die legale Behandlung von FIP in Deutschland nur über die Studien an der LMU München und deren Kooperationspartner in Zürich möglich. 7. Zukünftige Entwicklungen: Es gibt Hinweise auf neue legale Behandlungsmöglichkeiten, wie eine Paste aus einer französischen Apotheke, aber es fehlen noch Erfahrungswerte und Studien dazu. 8. Forschung und Weiterentwicklung: Dr. Katharina Zwicklbauer forscht weiter an den immunologischen Parametern bei Katzen mit FIP, um die Krankheit und ihre Behandlung besser zu verstehen. Kontakt und weitere Informationen: - LMU München: Für betroffene Katzenbesitzer ist es ratsam, sich direkt an die LMU München zu wenden, um an der Studie teilzunehmen. - ABCD Guidelines: Der Diagnostic Tree von ABCD ist ein hilfreiches Tool zur Diagnose von FIP und kann online eingesehen werden. - Zukünftige Updates: Es wird empfohlen, sich über zukünftige Entwicklungen und neue Behandlungsmöglichkeiten auf dem Laufenden zu halten. Diese Podcastfolge bietet einen umfassenden Überblick über die aktuellen Möglichkeiten und Fortschritte in der Behandlung von FIP bei Katzen. // In Kooperation mit der Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedia GmbH, bietet die Medizinische Kleintierklinik der LMU München eine „Spezialsprechstunde Cat'Xpert – Gesundheitsvorsorge für Katzen“ an. Hier kannst du auch deine nächsten Schritte bei einer FIP-erkrankten Katze besprechen.

Ever heard of a black-market drug ring… for cats? Feline Infectious Peritonitis, or FIP, has long been a devastating diagnosis, leading cat owners worldwide to turn to covert methods in the desperate search for a cure. Join us on this eye-opening episode of Cat Talk Radio as Dr. Lisa Fiorenza unpacks the surprising underground network that helped give hope to thousands of FIP-affected cats. We'll dive into how this sneaky disease triggers, what symptoms to watch for, and how FIP is being treated today with legitimate, life-saving advancements. Don't miss this revealing conversation about a disease that's finally losing its grip on the feline world!

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) occurs as a result of a viral mutation in cats infected with feline coronavirus. For decades, FIP has been a devastating condition in cats with an extremely high (95%) mortality rate and no reliable treatment options. A few years ago it was discovered that the antiviral drugs remdesivir and GS-441524 are highly effective for treating FIP, but these drugs are very expensive and there was no legal means of accessing them in Canada or the US – until now! As of 2024, Canadian veterinarians can access these life-saving drugs through an Emergency Drug Release (EDR). As these drugs and the process to access them are new to many Ontario veterinarians, the Ontario Animal Health Network is thrilled to have Dr. Kelly St. Denis with us to walk us through some of the ins and outs of these new treatment options. Veterinarians can find the links discussed in the podcast on the OAHN website here (OAHN login required). Don't have an OAHN login? Veterinarians and RVTs can sign up for free in one step.
In this second episode of their podcast, Dr. Jolle Kirpensteijn and Dr. Susan Little featured Dr. Terza Brostoff, DVM, PhD, from the University of California, Davis, to discuss her pioneering research on new medications for feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). Dr. Brostoff detailed the foundational steps in her investigations aimed at developing effective therapeutic options for this devastating disease, which affects cats and is caused by a coronavirus. We have had some exciting developments in therapeutic possibilities lately.

High-Yield cases & Question-based Review of 2 important complications of Cirrhosis (SOAP format). (For other complications look at hepatic encephalopathy in Acute liver failure and for Peritonitis to the previous episode)
Following the SOAP approach, we review Subjective, Objective, Assessment & Plan for Ascites & Peritonitis. Exudative versus Transudative classification compared to new SAAG-based classification are discussed for differential diagnosis. Values of SAAG in relation to Protein content, Cell count, LDH and Glucose and pH values as well as major risk factors are discussed to differentiate primary (spontaneous) versus 2ndary bacterial peritonitis. and management guidelines provided. Needs some mathematical understanding of SAAG formula and couple exceptions to the rules (as discussed).

Episode 123: Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis. Kaitlen defines spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) and also explains the diagnosis and management. Written by Kaitlen Roy-Ross, MS4, Ross University School of Medicine. Moderated by Hector Arreaza, MD. Definition:An ascitic fluid infection with no obvious surgically treatable intra-abdominal source (bowel perforation, abscess, perforated ulcer). Commonly seen in patients with cirrhosis and ascites. Patients may have symptoms of fever, abdominal pain, abdominal tenderness, altered mental status, and hypotension.Etiology: The most common pathogens (75%) are gram-negative aerobic organisms. Klebsiellapneumoniae accounts for 50% of the cases. Gram-positive aerobic bacteria (Streptococcus pneumoniae or viridans group streptococcus) account for the remaining cases. Some report E. coli as the most common cause of SBP. Random information: in Korea, Aeromonas hydrophila is an important pathogen of SBP during the summer. Diagnosis: To diagnose SBP, a paracentesis should be performed to analyze the ascitic fluid prior to treating the patient with antibiotics.The ascitic fluid should be analyzed for the following: PMN (Polymorphonuclear cell) count: > or = to 250 cells/mm3 Aerobic and anaerobic culturesSerum ascites albumin gradient (serum albumin-ascitic albumin): this measures portal pressure.If the gradient is > 1.1 = portal HTN is present (cirrhosis, heart failure, large liver malignancy, alcoholic hepatitis, portal vein thrombosis) – SBP is likely.If the gradient is 6 mg/ suggests a gallbladder perforation. No SBP.Treatment:The treatment for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis is broad-spectrum antibiotics. Empiric treatment is indicated if a patient with ascites has any of the following:Temperature > 100 FAbdominal pain or tendernessAltered mental statusPMN in ascitic fluid > 250 (but if there is bacteria in ascitic fluid, start antibiotics stat)Alcohol-induced hepatitis*Important note: Patients on beta blockers should have them permanently discontinued prior to treatment for SBP as beta blockers are associated with worse outcomes. In one study, patients on beta blockers had a 58% increase in mortality risk compared to patients not treated with beta-blockers. Beta-blockers were also associated with higher rates of hepatorenal syndrome and longer lengths of hospital stay.1st line treatment- 3rd generation Cephalosporin Cefotaxime 2g IV Q8H (preferred) or Ceftriaxone 2 g per day2nd line treatment- Carbapenems. Usually reserved for patients with severe disease/critical illness.3rd line- Fluoroquinolones- Cipro 400 mg IV BID to patients with normal renal function. (Patients should not get this if they already receiving it prophylactically.)Duration of treatment:5 days, then re-assess the patient's PMN count:PMN 250 or greater than pre-treatment PMN count > look for a surgical source of infection.If PMN is > 250 but less than pre-treatment value, continue ABX for 48 more hours and then repeat paracentesis. Note: In general, ascitic fluid PMN count should be reduced by at least 25% after 48 hours of antibiotic therapy.Renal failure is the major cause of death in patients with SBP and develops in 30-40 % of the patients. We can decrease this risk by administering IV albumin. IV albumin should be given when the creatinine is > 1 mg/dl, the blood urea nitrogen is > 30 mg/dl, or the total bilirubin is > 4 mg/dl. Treatment with octreotide or midodrine is helpful if renal failure develops.Prevention:Antibiotic prophylaxis can be given to patients with risk factors for SBP. Some risk factors include prior history of SBP, variceal hemorrhage, or an ascites fluid protein concentration of
