Recurrent Airway Obstruction

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Recurrent airway obstruction, also known as broken wind, heaves, or sometimes by the term usually used for humans ("chronic obstructive pulmonary disease" or "disorder"), is a respiratory disease in horses. This is a chronic condition of horses involving an allergic bronchitis characterised by wheezing, coughing and laboured breathing. An allergic reaction to certain otherwise innocuous substances - allergens, typically dust and mold spores (e.g. Aspergillus spp.). It is therefore most common in horses fed on hay and bedded on straw. Endotoxins from organisms in the bedding and feedstuffs may also play a role.
