Summary, etc. Twelve goats with history and symptoms suggestive
of ruminal acidosis were divided into two groups (I
and 11). Six healthy goats were also served as
controls. Detailed clinical examination, recording of
clinical data, sampling and analysis of rumen liquor
and blood were done at zero hour, one hour, 12 h, 24
h, 48 hand 72 h of the study. Therapeutic management
of group I was done by giving five per cent sodium
bicarbonate solution intravenously at a dose rate of 5
ml / kg ; whereas in group 11 it was replaced with a
mixture of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate
(carbicarb) intravenously at a dose rate of 4 ml / kg.
Animals of group I and 11 were given dexamethasone 20
mg intravenously, evacuated rumen contents and given
..



magnesium


hydroxide


and


oxytetracycline


orally.



Supportive treatments were done with fluids, vitamin B
complex inj ection daily and transfer of fresh rumen
liquor on second or third day in both groups. The
clinical signs noticed were anorexia, dullness, low
carriage of head, dry muzzle, sunken eyes, tending of
skin, oliguria, distended abdomen, cold extremities
and retracted eye balls. There was improvement in the

pulse quality and also considerable reduction in
respiratory rate noticed in animals of group 11 than
in group I at 24 h of .treatment. In both groups, the
rumen liquor colour, odour, consistency and protozoal
motility became normal, SAT and MBRT showed
improvement and elevated rumen liquor lactic acid
became normal by 72 h. Elevated haemoglobin, PCV, TEC,
TLC and neutrophilia also became normal. Improvement
in serum bicarbonate level was marked in group 11 than
in group I at 24 hand 48 h of treatment. Serum lactic
acid showed significant increase at zero hour in group
I and 11, but came to normal in group 11 at 72 h, but
not in group I. Elevated serum protein level at zero



hour


also


came


to


normal.


Clinical


assessment



throughout the study revealed that all animals of
group 11 appeared more alert and active and recovered
earlier than in group I.
