Assessment of an integrated therapeutic protocol for sheep with acute ruminal impaction: diagnostic and prognostic significance of rumen functions and hepatorenal biomarkers

20251 citationOpen accessKafr el-Sheikh University

Abstract

The applied therapeutic regimen (1-5 days' therapeutic program) was highly effective in cases of acute ruminal impaction in sheep, as evidenced by a clear improvement in their clinical health status (up to 15 days post-therapy) as well as restoring their reference intervals of ruminal functions biomarkers, blood picture indices, and hepatorenal functions throughout the current study (15-60 days post-therapy). Except for hepatorenal functions, all estimated laboratory indices restored their physiological intervals on the 15th day post-therapy. A 30- to 60-day follow-up period was required post-therapy until hepatorenal function restored their physiological reference intervals.
