SYNDROME DE M.M.A: MASTITIS .METRITIS AGALACTIA

It is a syndrome of very complex and varied etióloga. Easily only common clinical sign cannot differ it is the agalactia.
Even when to the palpación the udder is hot or swollen, and vaginal discharges can be observed, there usually are not mastitis neither metritis.

Pathology and Etiología: It is spoken of agents infesiosos, manajo, nutrición.etc.

Infectious *Agentes: Estreptococos ,klbsielas, golden estafilococos ,Actinio misis, Echerichia colis is it finishes it is the but suspect, since an endo toxin that alters the concentrations of the circulating hormones takes place. And an endocrine imbalance .Algunos studies says that the infusion of this toxin induces to a similar clinical syndrome to the natural illness. But not yet it is known if the bacteria or the toxin are primary or secondary factors of the illness.

*Manejo: The females in the first 20 days of pregnancy require a special care since in these days it is when they can be presented most of the embryonic reabsorptions .Y in the last 20 days of preñes or preaparto since in this time the biggest fetal development is given by what it is necessary to increase the food to avoid neonatos of vile.

Nutrition: The changes in the nutrition, as the excess food, or the food shortage, forages or grains very milled etc, the lack of fresh water and abundadote, they can predispose to the estrés, to him constipation, or to alter the bacterial flora (Manual merck 4ta edition).

For the above-mentioned he/she mentions exposed and for the sake of preventing this illness. In the farm progressive Women of Valencia located in the Municipality of Since Sucre, in the year 2000 to the ña0 2002 you implements for ten (10) credas and four (4) reproducers.
The following method of Prevention of the M.M.A, that which I allow to control in a 99 hundred this illness.

1º When the sows acquired a weight between 85 and 100kg they underwent a restricted diet of 2kgr /día of food allowing them to grow slowly with gain of 450gr á 600gr day until the moment of it mounts it.

2º From the first day of the gestation until the day 20, they are provided the best possible atmosphere, maintaining them in their corrals, they are not practiced handling of any nature, neither to bother it in their corral.

Starting from this date they are increased them to you the food consumption at 2.5kg / day, and fresh and abundant water to will and they stayed in a weight average like it is indicated in the following chart

*Primerizas 120kg á 130 Kg., until the moment of the childbirth
*Sdo/parto 140kg á 150 kg “““““
*Ter/parto 160kgá 170 Kg “““““

This stage called metabolism Gravídico, the sows take advantage of the food a lot.

3º the last 20 days of pregnancy or preparto are increased the food in 300kg, with the purpose of improving the weight when being born of the pig.
*Se took out to shepherding every day for 3 hours. in grass bracharia for proporcinarle vitamin TO and I eat ejercico or motilidad therapy
*Se gave them three bathrooms in the day one at 11 o'clock AM, another to the 2 PM and another to the PM, after the pastoreo.para to reduce caloric elestres

4º The day 111 were synchronized or the childbirth was induced with ILIREN”,que it is a similar of the natural prostaglandina (PGF2).
Approximately among the 20 á 30 hours of having applied the drug the childbirth he/she began. The drug was applied between the 11AM and the 12M with the end that the childbirth work began between the 8Am and the 6 PM of the following day.
Dose applied 2 á 4 ml in their majority 3ml were applied.

He/she notices: it is recommended not to apply the Iliren before the day 111. for that can nacerl pigs deviles.

The objective of the application of the drug was to facilitate the childbirth to avoid the manipulation and the traumatisms caused by this reason.
*Inducción of the childbirth for elimination of the body luteo Gestacional.

*Aumentar the uterine contractions.

*relajación and opening of the uterine neck.

5º Care of the posparto .para is it tube in bill the history or clinical evaluation of the farm.

Four (4) hours search childbirth was applied, 4ml of NEOBACTERIOL(o any other Iodine IM). Since the iodine acts as:
A general disinfectant.

As stimulant of the organic metabolism and hormonal.estimula the production of milk through the hormone thyroid (T3-T4) oxitocina (O.T) ProlactinaP.R.L) glucocorticoide (G:H).

6ºpara to prevent the constipation mixed the food with molasses to same parts, for 5 days then retired gradually. You can also use the sulfate of magnesium in doisi of 60 á 100gr (we Never use it).

7º in the event of fever their NOVALGINA used 20ml IM, or any other antipirético.

8ºLa feeding during the nursing you increase to of 4 á 4.5 kg, for primerizas
And of 6.5 and 9 kg for those of but, with a consumption it averaged of 7.5kg / day ,para big sows and 6.5kg/día for the medium ones.

By means of this handling practice the M.M.A was prevented during the period of January of the 2000 á January of the 2002 in this farm. But like it was a Municipal program he/she left to the fret when you adimistracion change and of technician.

Greetings Diso blesses him: Paul Lozaya King .Esta was a personal experience with very good results I hope this comment is you useful.

dear doctor
it is possible that most of the sows that are presenting the agalactia problem are animal of first childbirth, of being you can consider this way since a normal problem until certain moment these sows not yet they have well developed their mammary apparatus and for such a reason their conduits galactoforos that are those in charge of taking the milk to the mammary cisterns for their later one left by the nipple, are corked initially to be extremely narrow, if to the above-mentioned we added him a milk with high fatty content, it is not difficult to understand that during the itinerary they can be formed clots or clots of milk that cork the exit beginning this way the mastitis processes and later agalactia. my advice is to use some topical ointment that is inflammatory anti and anticongestiva, these ointments to the hot being they will allow the dilation of the conduits and the exit of the milk. it is important that it is helped with an antimastitico.

Hello to all, it is really interesting all the lived alternatives, but he/she also wanted to add him although the mencionarón very for above that is good to apply a system of meter of water in the areas of maternity to estimate their consumption in a same way it has worked me very well the humid feeding, this measure maybe is not carried out commonly for the use of the laundry system, but them all that when it is implemented they leave to it floats many details that they help us to solve agalactia problems mainly in primerizas, Thank you.

For these cases of agalactia we observe if there is presence of: metritis, mastitis y/o intestinal constipacion.
Looking for the restoration of the animal, we use treatments as much as possible alternative, this way:
The mastitis works her with hydrotherapy carrying out massages with leaves of male papaya tree or Moorish grass 2 or 3 times a day.
This makes it the animal it doesn't present this way poblemas, since he/she gives exelentes.
For the metritis we make intra-uterine laundries with 70cc of lukewarm water + 15 cc of oxitetraciclina +5 cc of iodine, 2 daily times, until when the problem disappears.
For the intestinal constipación we give him fiber through some leguminous forrajera or we shepherd the female.

Hello to all.
Thank you for all the comments, really that they have been very valuable. I see that all agree in defining the problem like a syndrome, that which should be focused doesn't only eat an infectious cause. I comment them, in the case of the analyzed sows or with those that this forum began, infectious illnesses were discarded because the animals didn't have affectation of its general state of health. They are sows F1 York-Lan, for what I also discarded a genetic problem. The problem seemed to be due to a marked mineral desbalance, added to a faulty consumption of water in maternity, now they are in 2 litros/min, added to the suplementación of 50 grams of salt mineral 15 days preparto, and during the whole nursing. Seemingly the problem was solved.
Now, a comment as for the last treatment suggested for the syndrome, was suggested Oxitetraciclina and iodine 2 times a day. Although with these products the cure of the animal is achieved and he/she survives the nursing and the breeding of the pigs, I consider that I eat disadvantage the later affectation of the fertility of the sow is, because as much the Oxitetraciclina as the iodine are extremely irritating products for the endometrio, causing inflammation, what is reflected in sows lecturers to future, because the embryos are not implanted or in poor litters, that is to say low number of pigs, products like METRICURE exist (Intervet) that they don't damage the endometrio and they solve the problem. I comment this because the treatment with Oxitetraciclina or iodine, I used it some years ago, and then he/she had those inconveniences with the fertility of some sows.
I wait comments in this respect.
Thank you.

Dr. Paúl Loaza King,
I congratulate him for the intuitive of their interconsulta, and the opportune of their last comment.
Yes, it is you in the certain thing, the iodines, topically and in uterine laundries, they are very irritating, more when it is of mucous, and the oxiteraciclina, depending on the concentration of the prepared solution.
But the injected iodines are an excellent stimulant of the organic metabolism, and for ende a hormonal stimulant, allowing a quick recovery of the reproductive physiology, and it is also a general disinfectant, and it doesn't affect in anything the reproductive apparatus, on the contrary, it allows a quick and excellent uterine involución.
I comment him, I have a reproductive work of improvement in bovine with iodine, with excellent results.
The handling that was given to the sows in this farm, responded very well to the use of the yodoterapia.

Hello. I see all the comments, and they are very good. He/she wanted to know if when administering the oxitetraciclina in a sow with little production of milk, this he/she doesn't go to help more in the decrease of the production of milk.

The topic of agalactia search childbirth is a frequent problem in farms where the handling conditions before, during and after the childbirth they don't guarantee good sanitary conditions mainly. It is important to keep in mind that before the probable date of childbirth a gradual reduction of the quantity of food should be begun given to the female and an appropriate toilet of the cage paridera and of the I modulate that it is in childbirth work in that semana.En the moment to begin the childbirth it is important to carry out toilet with water and soft soap from the surrounding area to the vulva of the female including the later train and of the cage. Subsequently to use a disinfectant on the same area to guarantee that the bacterial load of the skin of the female and the cage in that moment are it but possible first floor. During the childbirth him but important it is the permanent attendance on the part of a qualified operative that helps us so that the childbirth you produsca in the smallest possible time, to inclination direct stimulation to the female one and as much as possible to avoid the manipulation of the pigs dentor of the channel of the childbirth (not to feel), since this is factor predisponente for the presentation of this syndrome. the constant toilet of the area posterios of the henmbra during the whole process of the childbirth and at least the two following diasa to the same one is key to avoid the patogenos entrance that you/they can cause the presentation of this problem. finished in childbirth it is important to maintain with a checkup and constant evaluation of the female contreolando their temperature every 12 hours during the first three days and in the event of being presented episodes of fever to combine an antibiotic (oxitetraciclina, espiramicina) with an AINS. Him but important and economic in swinish produccio to avoid the presentation of this type of problems are the good ones you practice of production and these they are carried out carrying out a handling estricto,constante and effective of our exploitations

Hello to all.
The topic of the INJECTABLE iodine is totally different to that of use TOPIC or INTRA-UTERINE. I agree with their injectable use, it is a very good work tool in farms where the sanitary state is faulty. On the other hand, the use of antibiotics (oxitetraciclina, penicillins, quinolona, etc) as preservatives, it doesn't affect in anything the production of milk. INS SEIZURE, WHEN THE USE IS THERAPEUTIC, MANY TIMES HE/SHE IS ATTRIBUTED TO THE ANTIBIOTIC THE DECREASE IN THE PRODUCTION OF MILK OF THE SOW, AND NOT TO THE INFECTIOUS PROCESS AS SUCH. Let us remember that the syndrome begins with a METRITIS, it continues with a MASTITIS, and it finishes with an AGALACTIA. What do they say in this respect?

Bosco Farmer

I See that the alternative of use of the injectable iodo exists. He/she wanted as much as possible to have knowledge of some experiences in pigs. Thank you.

The problem that you have is the syndrome (mastitis, metritis, agalactia) this it is presented by diverse bioseguridad forms or hijiene that he/she has in the farm, those but important it is to detect it on time. and those but cash is washed uterine with oxitetraclinas but it dilutes distilled and it works very well in a mixture of 30ml of oxi x 60ml of distilled water, the other form is the use of obulos uterine posparto that equal is of oxitetraciclinas, and to be careful with the evolution of the mastitis.

Only to remind them the important thing that it is the feeding of the sow in the period of gestation among the days 70 and 90 post service, since we know that it is the moment where we form the he/she suckles for the next nursing. Without more, I greet all.

Very interesting all that you/they comment.
Here in North Carolina we use oxitocina with dexamethasone for the production of milk and inflammation. Galamicin works quite well also. Then vitamin B12 for the appetite. It is good also to take it out of the cage so that he/she walks. To also notice if it is caught a cold that pellets are come behind. But it is very important to minimize the estrés. Good luck,

In my view, it is necessary the periodic revision of the consumption of water and food of each sow, since are considered a possible factor predisponente. it is also necessary to prepare the animal of a comfortable atmosphere, where we can generate the minimum estres possible to the animal. it is also necessary the oxitosina application and and to revise the match levels and calcium that you them this giving in the diet in pre childbirth.
