RINAUDO, A. y BERNARDI, S.F.. Efecto de la producción láctea en el desarrollo de endometritis en vacas lecheras de Santa Fe (Argentina). Rev. vet. [online]. 2014, vol.25, n.2, pp.109-113. ISSN 1669-6840.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of individual milk production in the development of subclinical endometritis in postpartum Holstein dairy cows in the Province of Santa Fe, Argentina. Two hundred and seventy four cows were included in the assay, 222 were diagnosed as healthy and 52 sick with subclinical endometritis. The presence of = 5% polymorphonuclear neutrophils collected from the uterine mucosa through a complementary technique known as cytobrush was the parameter considered for a positive diagnosis of subclinical endometritis. Productive variables were body condition, parity, and total milk liters. No statistically significant differences for any of the considered variables between healthy cows and those with subclinical endometritis were registered. In conclusion, production variables such as body condition, parity and milk production did not influence the development of subclinical endometritis.
