Rumen food accumulation refers to a disease characterized by excessive rumen food accumulation, which leads to increased volume, gastric wall expansion and motor dysfunction. This disease is more common in dairy cows fed in houses.

【 Diagnostic points of rumen food accumulation 】

1. Have a history of gluttony.

2. The abdominal circumference is enlarged, the upper part of the left rumen is full, and the middle and lower parts protrude outward.

3. Abdominal pain, rumen pressure, full contents and finger retraction.

4. The intensity of rumen peristalsis weakened and the number of peristalsis decreased.

【 Treatment principle of rumen food accumulation 】

The treatment principle is to eliminate rumen contents, stop fermentation, prevent automatic poisoning and improve rumen excitability.

[Treatment method of rumen food accumulation]

1. In order to discharge the contents and stop the fermentation, 800g of sodium sulfate, 20g of fish fat and 0/000 ~ 2000ml of ordinary water can be taken orally at one time; Or paraffin oil 1000ml once orally.

2. To improve rumen excitability, potassium antimonate 8~ 10g can be dissolved in 2000ml water once a day, or 500ml 10% concentrated saline can be injected intravenously.

3. In order to prevent self-poisoning, 500 ml of 5% sodium bicarbonate was injected intravenously, and the effect was good. Of course, at the same time as the above intravenous injection, it is better to add cardiotonic agent appropriately.

4. If it is stubborn rumen food accumulation, if conservative treatment fails, rumen incision should be performed immediately, and after most of the contents are taken out, a proper amount of rumen fluid from healthy cows can be added, which can achieve good results.

Rumen ventilation

Rumen swelling refers to the rapid fermentation of rumen contents to produce gas, which hinders the absorption and discharge of gas and leads to the rapid expansion of stomach wall. There are many cows eating grass.

【 Diagnostic Points of Rumen Stomach Qi 】

1. has a history of eating a lot of fermentable feed.

2. Abdominal swelling, protruding above the left stomach, tense and elastic by palpation, no finger depression, and drums. 3. Rumen peristalsis is first strong and then weak, and finally disappears. 4. Normal body temperature, dyspnea and blood circulation disorder.

【 Treatment principle of rumen gas 】 The treatment principle of this disease is to exhaust and decompress, stop fermentation and remove harmful contents in the stomach.

[Treatment method of rumen gas]

1. In order to exhaust and decompress, especially when acute rumen dilatation occurs, the rumen should be punctured and deflated first. After disinfection, puncture the rumen in the opposite elbow direction and pull out the needle core for intermittent deflation.
