ABSTRACT

Respiratory diseases in poultry are the sum of the costliest problem plaguing today in the poultry industry due to high morbidity and mortality. Chronic respiratory disease (CRD) had a high prevalence rate in the last decade and thus established itself as a disease of the major economic importance of the poultry industry. The eradication of this contagious disease remains a challenge to the poultry industry that can be transmitted from infected birds to healthy ones by respiratory routes. The lack of proper isolation and diagnostic methods as well as improper use of antimicrobial therapy causes the treatment failure. Different types of antibiotics are used to treat it and different research use antibiotics of aminoglycoside group. For preventing the flock from infection separates the infected birds from healthy ones. Different treatments show average growth and good performance with the recovery of clinical signs, histopathological changes, mortality, and morbidity percentage. In this study, we represent a review with a descriptive analysis to identify the chronic respiratory poultry disease, method of prevention, their seasonal incidences, and the treatment by the use of good antibiotics and supportive therapy.
