As a scientific discipline "Infectious diseases of animals" are engaged in the study of origin, spread, duration and termination of specific infectious diseases of domestic and farm as well as free-living animals. Special attention is paid to the problems of how pathogenic and resistant infectious agents are, pathogenesis of diseases, their diagnostics and immunoprophylaxis. It is the current trend of decreasing the role of immunoprophylaxis that stresses the importance of other controlling measures in the farmework of structural changes in the agriculture and new ecological information. The discipline closely cooperates with the human medicine in the area of zoonoses. Students are trained to organise effective systems of prevention of infectious diseases of farm animals, methods of their control and eradication and public health protection.
1) theoretical knowledge Student is able/knows/understands: o The student is able to describe the etiology of bacterial infections of animals, their geographical occurrence, and the current disease situation in the Czech Republic and EU countries. He can determine whether the disease is transmissible to more species of animals or to humans. Can describe the pathogenesis of the disease. 2) practical skills Student is able: o Based on the knowledge from lectures and practical lessons, the student is able to recognize the typical clinical symptoms of the disease and to specify the possibilities of appropriate sampling, therapy and prevention. 3) competences Student is able o The student is able to use the knowledge of General Epidemiology and Infectious Diseases of Animals 1 and is able to independently evaluate the severity of individual bacterial diseases and their danger to animals or humans. They are able to orientate in differential diagnostics and can evaluate the reliability of methods of laboratory diagnostics, the effectiveness of adopted veterinary measures, or possible therapy and immunoprophylaxis.
