Symptoms and treatment of gastric obstruction in sheep flap

The symptoms of gastric obstruction of sheep flaps are mainly manifested as enlarged stomach in sick sheep flaps, hardness, non-excretion, and abdominal distention, which are mostly caused by improper feeding. Treatment of gastric obstruction of sheep flaps focuses on softening the valve gastric contents and promoting the excretion of these contents. For the symptoms and treatment measures of sheep flap gastric obstruction, this article details as follows:

　　First, the symptoms of gastric obstruction of sheep flaps

　　The initial symptoms of the sick sheep are similar to those of the anterior gastric flaccidity, the rumen peristalsis is weakened, the flap gastric peristalsis disappears, and the rumen gas gas and rumen accumulation can be secondary.

　　When the seventh to ninth ribs on the left side of the affected sheep are pressed, the sheep show pain and uneasiness when the level of the shoulder blade joint is up and down. The stool is less dry and dark, and the excretion is stopped later.

　　With the prolongation of the course of the disease, inflammation or necrosis of the valve gastric lobules, often secondary sepsis, at this time can be seen increased body temperature, breathing and pulse acceleration, systemic performance is weak, the sick sheep can not stand on the ground, ** after death.

　　Second, the treatment of sheep flap stomach obstruction

　　It should be mainly used to soften the gastric contents of the flap, supplemented by excitatory prekinetic function to promote the discharge of gastrointestinal contents.

　　Valve gastric injection therapy has a significant effect on refractory valve gastric obstruction. The specific method is: prepare 25% magnesium sulfate solution 30 ~ 40 ml, paraffin oil 100 ml, in the right side of the ninth intercostal space and the scapular joint line junction below, select a 12-gauge 7 cm long needle, to the contralateral shoulder joint direction into the direction of 4 cm deep, after the piercing can first inject 20 ml of normal saline, when there is a large pressure, indicating that the needle has been pierced into the stomach flap, and then the above prepared medicinal solution with a syringe alternately injected into the valve stomach, and then repeat the injection on the second day.

　　After the gastric injection, 10% calcium hydride 10 ml, 10% sodium chloride 50 to 100 ml, 5% glucose saline 150 to 300 ml, mixed, 1 intravenous injection. After the flap stomach is soft, the subcutaneous injection of 0.1% carbamoylcholine 0.2 to 0.3 ml stimulates the gastrointestinal motility function and promotes the lower discharge of the accumulation.

　　Third, sheep feeding precautions

　　1. Timing, quantification, quality and appointment. The sheep should be fed on time so that the sheep form a conditioned reflex, which is conducive to digestion and absorption. According to different sheep, determine the amount of grass and material fed; To be able to eat and not to waste; To ensure feed quality and flower color varieties; Where conditions permit, a suitable diet should be formulated according to the feeding standard; Breeders should also be relatively fixed.

　　2, forage, feed, drinking water to clean, do not feed mildew hay, forage can not bring water, winter ** good to drink warm water.

　　3, keep the sheep house clean and dry, so that the winter is warm and the summer is cool, and the feces should be cleaned frequently.

　　4. It is necessary to do a good job in epidemic prevention and regular deworming in spring and autumn.
