Abstract
The purpose of the study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the therapeutic effectiveness of a local antiseptic drug based on tea tree essential oil for acute postpartum catarrhal endometritis in cows. The study was conducted at the Department of VNB, Obstetrics and Physiology of Farm Animals of the Krasnoyarsk State Agrarian University, on the basis of the dairy farm of the Balakhta District of the Krasnoyarsk Region. The object of the study is red-motley cows. Research methods: obstetric and gynecological medical examination of breeding stock; the diagnosis of acute postpartum catarrhal-purulent endometritis was established during a clinical and gynecological examination of fresh cows, which inclu-ded thermometry, rectal and vaginal examination. The diagnosis was considered confirmed when pathological discharge of a catarrhal nature appeared from the uterus during rectal massage. Two experimental groups of fresh cows were formed according to the principle of analogues (based on live weight, age, lactation, clinical manifestation of the form of acute endometritis). In the 1st experimental group, scheme № 1 was used: a 25 % oil solution of tea tree essential oil was administered intrauterinely in a dose of 20 ml daily once a day until clinical recovery; eleovit 8 ml was administered intramuscularly on the 1st and 5th days of treatment; uteroton 10 ml was administered intramuscularly daily once a day for 3 days; 0.05 % chlorhexidine solution 200 ml – intravaginally; rectal massage of the uterus once a day. In the 2nd experimental group, treatment regimen № 2 was used, which differed from regimen № 1 by using a 50 % oil solution of tea tree essential oil in a similar dosage. The best therapeutic effect in the treatment of acute catarrhal endometritis was obtained using scheme № 2 using a 50 % oil solution of tea tree essential oil. Du¬ring the seven-day course of treatment, therapeutic effectiveness was obtained in 60.0 % of cases; prolongation of the course of therapy led to the recovery of all animals in this experimental group. The ave¬rage duration of treatment for the group was 8.0 days.
