EFFICIENCY OF «OINMENT FOR WOUNDS» IN THE COMPLEX THERAPY OF AVULSIVE WOUNDS OF COWS’ UDDER TEATS

Abstract

In the study of cows’ mammary glands pathologies it was determined that the udder wounds constitute 1.2% in the overall structure of diseases. The peak of traumatism on cows’ breast wounds falls on summer (pasture–range period) – 77.3%, resulting from offences of sanitary requirements for cattle pasture and grazing. While testing new treatment regimens it was set the high efficiency of «Ointments for wounds» based on essential oils of Siberian Cedar, Eucalyptus, Clove, Cedar, Tea Tree and chlorophyllipt oil solution for treatment of avulsive wounds of cows’ udder teats. It has been proven the reducing of time for treatment compared with traditional drugs «Oxytetracycline Ointment 5%» containing oxytetracycline – a semisynthetic antibiotic of a tetracycline series. Complex therapy, including application of preparation for external use «Ointment for wounds» and hypodermic injection of NSAID «Celecoxib», together with the wound defects closing by sutures with polyglycolide, promotes rapid correction of the clinical condition of cows. It was observed upregulating of hemoglobin by 6.1%, the number of erythrocytes – 11.4%, leukocytes – 9% in the blood, compared with the traditional method of treatment («Oxytetracycline Ointment 5%» and nonsteroidal drug «Kefen»). Local application of phytopreparation «Ointments for wounds» and hypodermic injection of NSAID «Celecoxib» promotes acceleration of inflammatory reactions cancellation in 1,3 times, reduce udder edema – 1.2 times and enhance regenerative processes, thereby reducing treatment time 5 – 6 days compared to control animals.
