Abstract
Tackling the successful treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is a challenging problem in clinical practice, with application of drug therapy often occurring quite late down the line of clinical progression, and so resulting in poor treatment outcomes. Temperature detecting technology such as TempVerified FeverTags has been utilised in a set of studies to allow early detection of BRD, and therefore comparison of different treatments and their outcomes in pre-weaning calves. The studies compared antimicrobial and NSAID treatments for BRD, and found that while NSAIDs did allow a potential ~30% reduction in antimicrobial usage, this treatment choice must be accompanied by continuous close monitoring of calves for the occurrence of future cases of BRD.
