Saletska O. Diagnostics, therapy and prophylaxis of serous mastitis at sows

Object of research: function of mammary gland of sow and the causes of its disorders. Purpose of research: deals with the groundings of prognosis criteria for early diagnosis of mammary gland inflammation and using the different schemes of pathogenetic therapy and prophylactic of serous mastitis in sows in the condition of special economy of pork production. Methods of research: clinical, biochemical, bacteriological, cytological, statistic. Scientific novelty: for the first time it was studied and found out the character of metabolic changes in blood (biochemical indices and the content of prolactinum) and coinciding the main diagnostic tests by the conditions of serous mastitis development in sows. Scientifically grounded symptomatic, the dynamic of somatic cells and microbial insemi-nation of secretion of affected mammary glands and its influence on vital activity and breed preservation in sows at serous mastitis. For first the time, in the comparative aspects, it was studied therapeutic and economical efficiency of different scheme of pathogenetic therapy of sows at serous mastitis and dynamic changes of metabolic indices of blood during their using. Degree of introduction: sick sows which have serous mastitis have to use the injection between the abdomen and affected mammary gland the 0,25% solution of Novocainum, in a 40 ml dose with the adding to it 1 ml of the 2,5% Hy-drocortizonum suspension, three times, with the interval of 24 hours. With the purpose of prophylactic the serous mastitis in sows it should be used intramuscular introduction of 2,5% suspension of Hydrocortizonum in a 2 ml dose should be injected twice - on the 113th day of the gestation period, and in one hour after the delivery(after last droppings taking out). Sphere (field of using): veterinary medicine.
