Clinical Studies on Exercise Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (eiph) in Horses

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The present study included 18 Thoroughbred horses with signs of EIPH competing in the 1600 m flat racing discipline. A clinical and endoscopic examination of the trachea (60-90 min after the finish) was per-formed, which confirmed the presence of blood in all horses examined. Two horses were diagnosed with grade 1 hemorrhage, two horses with grade 2, eight horses with grade 3 and six horses with grade 4. Klebsiella spp. and Streptococcus equi subsp. Zooepidemicus were isolated in Tracheal wash (TW). Tracheoscopy is an ex-tremely valuable method for diagnosing pulmonary hemorrhage in the field.
