In this episode of the Medical Nursing Podcast we're talking about a really common, commonly misunderstood and often frustrating disease - feline respiratory disease complex, aka FRDC or cat ‘flu. When I think about those ‘flu cases, I think back to sweating in PPE in a makeshift isolation room in my earlier nursing days, spending countless hours cleaning nasal discharge, creating steam baths outside of kennel doors, and tempting tiny kittens to eat. This is a disease that is MADE for nursing - there is so much we can do to support these patients. And as always, giving that great care starts with understanding what ‘flu is, and how we manage it - which is exactly what's waiting for you inside this episode. --- Resources mentioned in this episode:

Recently, a study was conducted at the university of Auckland analysing the use of A.I in predicting the prevalence of respiratory disease outbreaks during flu seasons in Aotearoa. Forecasting models are essential for hospitals in predicting admissions and subsequently allocating resources and beds. However, during peak flu periods, and, most notably the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals across Aotearoa have been largely underprepared for respiratory disease outbreaks, hence why experts have called for improvements to be made to traditional forecasting models.  Oto spoke to Dr Steffen Albrecht, a Research Fellow at the School of Computer Science at the University of Auckland and author of the study, to talk about the study and how A.I could help disease forecasting models in hospitals across Aotearoa. 

Dr. Brad White of Kansas State University and Director of the Beef Cattle Insitute talks about his team's research into Bovine respiratory disease, or Shipping Fever. Bovine respiratory disease costs ranchers in the United States about $900 million annually due to animal death, reduced feed efficiency and treatment costs. The research represents the most comprehensive assessment of risk factors and pathological characteristics of late day pulmonary disease ever reported, generating valuable results that will help ranchers and veterinarians improve animal welfare, mitigate the negative impacts of this disease while promoting antimicrobial stewardship.

Respiratory diseases costs the country more than $8 billion each year. New research has found more Kiwis are suffering than previously thought, with around one million people affected by the disease annually. Asthma and Respiratory Foundation Chief Executive Letitia Harding says the financial burden is huge. "We base all of this on our prescriptions, our hospitalisations, time off work, school days lost - because then you have parents who take time off as well - a lot of factors go into this."

Dr. Tess Eidem a practitioner and researcher working with the cannabis industry. She is interested in IEQ issues from a very broad perspective such as relative humidity and ventilation to very specific topics such as Bioaerosol exposures when cultivating cannabis. This week we will explore cannabis production, the worker health issues it poses and how we can learn from this new and quickly expanding area. Her most recent paper with Tara Nordgren and Mark Hernandez is on Bioaerosol Exposures and Respiratory Diseases in Cannabis Workers.  Tess Eidem's doctoral research focused on developing novel antibiotics against bacterial pathogens, and her scientific career has centered on bringing modern microbiology and RNA biology practices to promote human health. Leveraging her scientific expertise, Dr. Eidem transitioned into the cannabis industry where she spent four years working directly in cannabis production and quality management. This unique experience allowed her to combine her hands-on skills in manufacturing with microbiology and product safety as a Preventive Controls Qualified Individual (PCQI) to help cannabis cultivators minimize potential hazards within their facilities and in their products. Having witnessed firsthand the challenges of microbial contamination in the cannabis industry, Dr. Eidem returned to the University of Colorado Boulder, where she currently works as a Senior Research Scientist in the Aerobiology and Disinfection Laboratory, with a focus on practical building science. Her research investigates bioaerosol persistence associated with cannabis environments, including airborne molds, allergens, and pathogens. She is driven to connect unbiased scientific research with environmental engineering principles and applying them to the cannabis space to improve worker well-being, plant health, and consumer safety.

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Brad White from the Kansas State University Beef Cattle Institute to discuss a paper published in the Bovine Practitioner titled “Risk factors Associated with Case Fatality and Treatment Success following Initial Bovine Respiratory Disease Treatment in Feedyard Cattle”. This paper was a retrospective analysis of existing feedyard data to identify potential relationships between risk factors known at the time of initial treatment for bovine respiratory disease (BRD) and treatment outcomes. The three post-treatment outcomes evaluated were first treatment success, post-treatment deaths from any cause, and post-treatment deaths due to BRD.  The investigators found the overall first treatment success for BRD to be 67.8% with all-cause mortality of 10% and BRD related mortality of 6.3%. White discusses associations found with each post-treatment outcome evaluated which can be useful information as veterinarians evaluate the success of their BRD treatment, prevention and control protocols for their customers, and define expectations with clients.  Neal, K.
