New in the treatment of calves in acute catarral bronchopneumonia

At present, the veterinary experts of the Russian Federation has a difficult task of reducing the incidence of bovine animals, in particular calves. A significant part in solving this problem takes to find the most effective and relatively inexpensive treatment of sick animals used in the complex therapy. The purpose of work was studying of a possibility of application of methods of ozonotherapy of calves at pulmonary diseases, in particular at a sharp catarral bronchopneumonia. The material for the study was young cattle in the number of 35 animals at the age of 1-3 months. Groups of animals were formed by the principle of analogs up to 5 heads in everyone. As monitoring served clinically healthy calves. The diagnosis on a bronchopneumonia was established in a complex taking into account data of the anamnesis, clinical implication of a disease, blood test on morphological and biochemical parameters. In order to increase the effectiveness of therapeutic measures performed with bronchopneumonia of calves, we proposed the use of ozonized saline and autoblood. To take into account the measures taken, the average daily weight gain of calves, changes in hematological and biochemical blood parameters, percentage of recovery and duration of treatment were taken into account. As a result of the treatment, we found that under the influence of the ozonization of liquids (autoblood and saline) in the body of diseased calves, a rapid restoration of the protein composition of the blood occurs. It should be noted that the immunostimulatory effect of ozone is well pronounced, as evidenced by an increase in the level of the γ-globulin fraction by an average of 6.1 and 43.5%.
