- Inflammation
Therefore, therapies are directed at resolving microbial invasion, decreasing inflammation and uterine contractions. [info.selectbreeders.com]
Definitions from The Century Dictionary. noun Inflammation of the placenta. from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License. noun inflammation of the placenta Etymologies from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License [wordnik.com]
Placentitis is an inflammation of the placenta, the temporary organ that forms to support the foal while it is in the mare during pregnancy. [riverinaequinevet.com.au]
- Weakness
Placentitis can be a devastating problem in the horse leading to abortion, stillbirths or weak or premature foals. [riverinaequinevet.com.au]
This usually means mares with a prior history of abortion, weak foals, or producing abnormal placentas at previous foalings. [longfordequine.com.au]
Placentitis is a significant cause of preterm labour in mares and results in premature delivery of dead or weak, severely compromised foals that require expensive intensive care to survive. [agrifutures.com.au]

Carter and the laboratory asked area veterinarians: "Please encourage your clients to submit all aborted fetuses and placentae to our laboratory for a full pathological and microbiological examination. [equusmagazine.com]

If you have any questions about your broodmare’s risk for this condition or see any clinical signs described in this article, please call your veterinarian immediately. [blueridgeequine.com]
Using the rectal probe, the attending veterinarian will seek to identify the combined thickness of the uterus and placenta (CTUP). [beh.com.au]
- Sepsis
They still carry a risk for sepsis and orthopaedic complications. Treatment: Treatment of placentitis is often unrewarding, when the mare has developed clinical signs. [myeventflo.com]
Infection of the placenta results in subsequent infection of the fetus and in the release of prostaglandins from the inflamed placenta, which ultimately leads to abortion or delivery of a premature foal with bacterial sepsis. [equine.ca.uky.edu]
Any foal born to a mare with placentitis (premature or not) should be treated as being at a high risk of sepsis and managed accordingly. [beh.com.au]
Depending on the stage of pregnancy the above clinical signs are followed by either abortion or the birth of a small, weak foal that may be infected (septic) or develop sepsis. [riverinaequinevet.com.au]
- Hypothermia
Bradycardia and hypothermia was observed at 48 hours of life in No Survivors Group. Foals from No Survivors and Healthy groups showed leukopenia at birth with slight variations until 48h. [scielo.br]

- Vaginal Discharge
discharge and / or early milk production. [wordnik.com]
A diagnosis usually can be determined using trans-rectal and/or trans-abdominal ultrasound in combination with a culture if a vaginal discharge is present. [info.selectbreeders.com]
Commonly reported signs are early udder development or ‘bagging-up’, and vaginal discharge from as early as five months of gestation. Normal mares undergo udder development 2-4 weeks prior to birth. [riverinaequinevet.com.au]
Mares with placentitis may develop premature udder development or a vaginal discharge but by this time, treatment is more difficult. [veterinarypartner.vin.com]

Treatment
Thereafter, placentitis induced mares were randomly assigned into: (1) basic treatment, TMS+FM (n = 8); (2) basic treatment with ALT supplementation, TMS+FM+ALT (n = 8); (3) basic treatment with ECP supplementation, TMS+FM+ECP (n = 6); (4) basic treatment [experts.illinois.edu]
Currently, ultrasonographic evaluation of the placenta is used to detect early cases of placentitis and to implement treatment to prevent abortion and delay premature labor. [equine.ca.uky.edu]
Future studies will hopefully identify markers of infection and inflammation characteristic for placentitis so treatment can be initiated early. [info.selectbreeders.com]
Treatment The treatment for placentitis is primarily aimed at controlling infection and reducing inflammation. [beh.com.au]
More effective prenatal treatment of mares is essential to reduce the incidence of premature delivery of compromised foals. [agrifutures.com.au]
Prognosis
PROGNOSIS AND RELEVANT FACTORS The prognosis is generally poor. It is difficult to control the infection and maintain a healthy pregnancy. my role I might observe You might make these observations when a horse has this condition. [horsesidevetguide.com]
Pathophysiology is emphasized throughout, providing a sound basis for discussions of the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis that follow. [books.google.com]
Most foals that present with these symptoms have a very poor prognosis but Fiona fought every step of the way and responded to treatment. [belvoirequineclinic.com.au]
Prognosis If the condition is diagnosed early and aggressive treatment initiated with a combination of broad spectrum antibiotics, altrenogest and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication, up to 73% of mares may deliver live foals. [beh.com.au]

This study was conducted to compare C4d immunoreactivity between villitis of unknown etiology (VUE) and cytomegaloviral placentitis. C4d immunohistochemistry was performed in cases with VUE (n = 16) and cytomegaloviral placentitis (n = 5). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In another 24 placentas they observed only villitis in the absence of parasitism determining a frequency of 17.9% of villitis of unknown etiology. A control group of placentas of non chagasic mothers was studied. [scienceopen.com]

It also addresses the importance of preventing and controlling infectious disease outbreaks with coverage of epidemiology, biosecurity, antimicrobial therapy, and recognizing foreign equine diseases. [books.google.de]
Director & Professor of Epidemiology at the University of Kentucky's Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (UKVDL) in Lexington, Kentucky issued a notice to area veterinarians today that the UKVDL received an equine fetus from a Bluegrass area farm. [equusmagazine.com]

Prevention

To prevent abortion, early detection of the condition is critical and waiting until clinical signs of placentitis develop may be too late. [veterinarypartner.vin.com]
Thickening at the cervical star can prevent it rupturing at birth or abortion, so that the chorion tears across the rostral body. [myeventflo.com]
Pregnant women with COVID-19 have an increased risk for stillbirth compared to uninfected women, and those who vaccinate can more effectively prevent adverse conditions such as SARS-CoV-2 placentitis, infant death, preterm birth, and stillbirth. [massgeneral.org]
Management Management and prevention of placentitis involves a number of factors. For viral abortion ( EHV ) this means vaccination of mares in their 5th, 7th and 9th months of pregnancy. [longfordequine.com.au]
