Glycaemia as a sign of the viability of the foetuses in the last days of gestation in dairy goats with pregnancy toxaemia.

摘要: Pregnancy toxaemia is one of the most common diseases affecting small ruminants in last month gestation. Nearly 80% foetal growth occurs 6 weeks Fat goats and carrying twins triplets are at greater risk. characterized by metabolic acidosis, hypoglycaemia ketonaemia a very high mortality rate. In our study five does with pregnancy showed marked hyperglycaemia (12.4 ± 5.4 mmol/L). Although findings based on population sample (10 goats), we nonetheless postulate that could be explained death foetuses. Caesarian surgery was performed four (HG does). fifth, kidding induced. this group, two had dead foetuses, three foetuses only which alive. all (LG Four LG group The HG doe lower rectal temperatures, sodium higher urea nitrogen (BUN) blood when compared does. As condition affected may deteriorate quickly, results present suggest days concurrent should considered for caesarian surgery.
