Plakhotnyuk K. The metabolic syndrome at hyperthermiа of ducks and its correction

The object of the research is metabolism in poultry heat stress. The aim of the research is to determine the effect of general overheating of the body of ducks on their metabolism and performance, to develop the ways of medical correction of metabolic syndrome, which develops at hyperthermia. The methods are: clinical, zootechnical, zoohygienic, laboratory blood tests, pathological, histological and statistics methods. Practical significance lies in the fact that the results of the research, expanding and deepening the knowledge of the pathogenesis of hyperthermia may become one of the important components of the further study of the problem of diagnosis and prevention of metabolic disturbances at the pathology. The principle possibility and advisability of pharmacological correction of the metabolic syndrome which arises at hyperthermia was proved. For the first time the dynamics of hematological and plasma biochemical parameters of ducks were studied in age-sex aspect, their limits were defined. The difference in the content of lipids, total protein, total calcium in females and males starting from 18 weeks of age was established. For the first time conducted a comprehensive study of clinical and biochemical status of ducks of both sexes at thermal overheating. The development of hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, increased activity of lipid peroxidation, disruption of water and electrolyte balance and acid-base balance were established. It was found that drakes are less exposed to elevated temperatures.The study dynamics of metabolic ducks in age-sex aspect included in the guidelines "The methods of clinical examination ducks of industrial herd". Recommendations were approved by the Department of Veterinary Medicine at the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Scientific and Technical Council of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food of Crimea (25.12.2012) Basic scientific thesis of the dissertation are used for educational purposes in teaching subjects "Clinical diagnostics" and "Internal Diseases of Animals" and specializations "Diseases of Poultry" at the programs for masters, specialists, bachelors, students faculty training in six universiyies of Ukraine. Suggested by the author means the correction of metabolic disorders by hyperthermia are used in poultry farms of Crimea. Scope (area) of use: veterinary medicine
