Abstract

Large animal practitioners are faced with varying levels of de­hydration in both mature and neonatal cattle. The goal of this talk will be to describe and formulate fluid therapy plans in varying circumstances in an ambulatory setting. Determining dehydration, acid-base status, and electrolyte abnormalities will be reviewed. Following this presentation, the practitioner will be able to identify the proper use of oral and intravenous fluid in clinical cases and appropriate volume to be adminis­tered. Homemade fluid recipes will be discussed including pros and cons compared to commercially available products.
