Abstract: BENESISTO, JOHNNIE MUNIQUE B., Prevalence and Associated Risk Factors of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea (PED) in Diarrheic Pigs from Selected Swine Farms in the Province of Rizal. Undergraduate Thesis. Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. November 2018. Adviser: Ma. Cynthia R. dela Cruz, DVM, PhD. This study determined the prevalence of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea (PED) in diarrheic pigs from selected farms in the province of Rizal and risk factors associated with PED. Purposive random sampling was used in selecting the farms (72) and diarrheic pigs (648) from the sampled areas. The farm owners were interviewed using a structured questionnaire containing the probable risk factors associated with PED. The PED from the fecal samples were detected using the commercially available ANDALI® Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Reverse Transcription- Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification (RT-LAMP) test kit. Results revealed that 9 out of 648 samples were positive for PED giving an overall prevalence of 1.4%. The highest prevalence was observed in Binangonan with 6.9% followed by Antipolo City, Pililla, San Mateo and Teresa with 1.4% prevalence equally. Several risk factors were evaluated and correlated in relation to current and related literatures. However, of all the risk factors evaluated in this study only the early weaning, source of replacement stock, and biosecurity risk on possible route of disease through people had statistical association with the prevalence of PED from the animals sampled in Rizal. This study confirmed the presence of the organism in swine in Rizal province and although the prevalence is low, strict biosecurity measures must be practiced at all times.
