Incidence of endometritis in crossbred dairy cows: A clinical report


Author(s): Ravikumar BP

Abstract: This clinical report investigates the incidence of endometritis in crossbred dairy cows. The study was conducted between May and August 2004, involving 621 cows presented for artificial insemination at the Teaching Veterinary Clinical Service Complex (TVCSC), Yelahanka, Bangalore, and an organized dairy farm near the Veterinary College, Bangalore. Diagnosis was based on the nature of discharge, gynecological examinations, and the Whiteside test. Results indicated an overall endometritis incidence of 12.56%, with a significant difference in incidence between cows at TVCSC (9.36%) and the organized farm (18.14%). The study confirms that the Whiteside test is a useful diagnostic tool for endometritis, particularly in repeat breeding cows with normal discharge and no abnormalities detectable by rectal palpation.
