Abstract

The article presents data on the dynamics of postpartum pathology, which was most often recorded in the form of both their pathologists and as acute postpartum cervicitis . So in 2017, this pathology of the organs of the genital system was diagnosed in 7 animals, which made up 37% of the total number of calving cows, in 2018 a similar figure was 8 cases, which is 42.1%, and in 2019 observed an unprecedented decrease the number of cases of postpartum cervicitis is 7, which is 31.82% of the total number of cows.

However, fluctuations in the number of families had pathological tendencies th to increase, but this increase was not statistically significant: in 2017 - 7 cases (35%), in 2018 - 8 (42.1%) in 2019 - 9 (39, 34%). For all reasons, pathologic births most frequently reported a delay: in 2017 - 3 (42.85%), in 2018 - 4 (50%), in 2019 - 3 (33.34%), on average over the three reporting years the figure was 41.67% of the total number of causes of pathological births.

As can be seen from the data presented in table 6 in sick animals , on the third day from the beginning of treatment there is a probable increase in the level of total protein in the cows of the experimental group, compared with the indicator for treatment by 6.9% (p <0.01), but its content still remains

Lower relative to the level of clinically healthy cows by 5.8% (p <0.01). In the control group, this indicator remained almost unchanged from the pre-treatment index, remaining lower by 12.4% (p <0.001) relative to clinically healthy cows and by 7% (p <0.05) compared to the experimental group.

In particular, studies concentration of fibrinogen in the blood plasma of cows with different methods of treatment showed that at the third day of treatment fibrinogen level is reduced compared with the rate before treatment to 14.3% (p <0.001) in the experimental group and incredibly on 5% in the control.
