Enhancing Livestock Health Through Early Diagnostics and Targeted Antimicrobial Use
Utilizing early diagnostics in livestock for targeted antimicrobial administration is essential for effective disease management and reducing antimicrobial resistance. This approach aids in timely treatment, facilitates monitoring of animal health status, and supports preventive measures against emerging diseases. Collaboration with regulatory bodies and industry partners ensures compliance with standards while promoting advancements in veterinary diagnostics. By emphasizing the significance of animal health diagnostics, including vaccination efficiency monitoring and early disease detection, we contribute to global health efforts and combat antimicrobial resistance.

The importance of early diagnostics for a more targeted use of antimicrobials in livestock
Presentation about 21 members manufacturing over 1 600 veterinary diagnostic tools under ISO 9001 or higher QMS https://diagnosticsforanimals.com/
Missions 01 02 03 04 Federate and represent M anufacturers of Animal Health Diagnostics in Europe broadly Explain the benefit of an harmonized, efficient, and transparent regulatory framework to permit the AHDx to be in compliance with various Regulatory Requirements Promote initiatives for the development of Animal Health Diagnostics for emerging diseases Promote collaborations with other actors in Animal Health (institutes, vaccine producers, etc.)
D4A Partners: Animal Health Europe, CEN, Discontools, Epruma, OIE, European Commission, AHAC, EFSA, IABS, Fesass, Health for Animals, Star-Idaz
A veterinary diagnostic tool is more than just an additional cost
The importance of ANIMAL HEALTH DIAGNOSTICS Monitoring: Animal Health status (prevention, treatment etc.) Eradication programs Vaccination efficiency (monitor protective antibodies) Detect infected animals among vaccinated animals with DIVA One Health: Early detection of food pathogens in livestock permit the reduction of food borne diseases; Monitoring of shared infectious diseases (zoonoosis) Growing interest / need for reliable, rapid tests (pen-side) prior to prescription Recent Initiatives from regulatory bodies oblige for sensitivity testing prior to the use of critical antibiotics which market for sensitivity tests to improve the prescription of such antimicrobials?
>90% of the veterinary diagnostic market 21 Members >1600 diagnostic tools 2 Big Challenges 60% of the pathogens circulating in the human population originated in animals Helps the International Community to prevent AMR and be prepared for next pandemic Promotes One Health initiatives for the development of new Animal Health Diagnostics as rapid tests (pen-side) prior to prescription AMR
In the new global approach to health security Needs: PREVENTION INNOVATION OUTBREAK RESPONSE Early pathogen detection reduce the need to treat with antimicrobials a large number of animals (m taphylaxies) Engage the veterinary community in outbreak responses and promote diagnostic before antimicrobials prescription Open mass screening technologies, including point of care solutions Promote the investment of new, faster and affordable diagnostic technologies Include the vet lab capacity under an adapted legal framework More funding for Control of infectious diseases veterinary diagnostics are part of the solution
