Description
Summary:The purpose of this research was to develop accurate, and objective guidelines for assessing hydration status of suckling goat. Ten male suckling goats (Etawah) aged between 10 to 14 days old were used in this study. Dehydration was induced by fasting from all kinds of feed and administration of diuretics (furosemide 2 mg/kg im q 4 hours, spironolactone 50 mg PO, q 8 hours and hydrochlorothiazide 50 mg PO, q 8 hours) and chatartic (sucrose solution 2 g of sucrose/kg in 20% aqueous solution, PO, q 8 hours) during 24 hours. Linear regression was used to examine the relationship between some clinical parameters (enophthalmus, skin-tent, pulse, respiration rate, body temperature) and the degree of dehydration, as determined by change in body weight. The results indicate that enophthalmus and skin elasticity on thoracal region were closely related to the hydration status (R2 = 0,94 and R2 = 0,90) and therefore could be useful as predictors for evaluating hydration status of suckling goat.
