Abstract

Unatoč brojnim pozitivnim učincima pasa na fizičko i psihičko zdravlje čovjeka, ne treba
zanemariti činjenicu da psi mogu biti izvor različitih zoonotskih patogena. Vlasnici vrlo često
smatraju svoje pse članom obitelji i sukladno tome ostvaruju vrlo blizak kontakt koji pogoduje
prijenosu zoonotskih patogena. Bakterijske zoonoze povezane s kućnim ljubimcima relativno su
zanemareno područje te postoji opći nedostatak podataka o prevalenciji patogena unutar populacije
kućnih ljubimaca, odnosno učestalosti infekcija u ljudi koje se mogu povezati s prijenosom s
kućnih ljubimaca.
U ovom radu prikazane su najčešće bakterijske zoonoze u pasa. Daje se pregled njihove
učestalosti, načina prijenosa i povezanih preventivnih mjera. Bakterijske zoonoze podijeljene su
na one koje se prenose ugrizom, ogrebotinama ili kontaktom sa slinom (infekcija bakterijom
Pasteurella spp. i Capnocytophaga canimorsus), fekooralnim putem (salmoneloza,
kampilobakterioza), izravnim ili neizravnim kontaktom sa životinjskim tkivima, urinom
(leptospiroza), drugim tjelesnim tekućinama ili izlučevinama (bruceloza, Q groznica), kapljičnim
putem ili aerosolom (infekcije bakterijom B. bronchiseptica, Q groznica). U zasebnim poglavljima
daje se kratak osvrt o značenju multirezistentnih bakterija i zoonotskom potencijalu bakterija koje
se prenose vektorima.

Abstract (english)

Despite the numerous positive effects of dogs on the physical and mental health of humans, we
should not ignore the fact that dogs can be a source of various zoonotic pathogens. Dog owners
very often consider their dogs as members of the family and accordingly achieve very close contact
that favors the transmission of zoonotic pathogens. Bacterial zoonotic diseases associated with
pets are a relatively neglected area, and there is a general lack of data on the prevalence of
pathogens within the pet population, or the frequency of infections in humans that can be linked
to transmission from pets. This paper presents the most common bacterial zoonoses in dogs. An
overview of their frequency, mode of transmission and associated preventive measures is given.
The different modes of transmission and associated preventive measures are presented. Bacterial
zoonoses are divided into those that are transmitted by bites, scratches or contact with saliva
(infection with Pasteurella spp. and Capnocytophaga canimorsus), fecal-oral route (salmonellosis,
campylobacteriosis), direct or indirect contact with animal tissues, urine (leptospirosis), other body
liquids or secretions (brucellosis, Q fever), by droplet or aerosol (infections with B. bronchiseptica,
Q fever). Separate chapters briefly review the importance and zoonotic potential of multidrugresistant bacteria and vector-borne diseases.
