A disease of beef cows with large energy requirements, e.g. during very cold weather or when fed poor quality roughage with low energy content and poor digestibility. The abomasum impacts with dry roughage and the abdomen distends on the right; clinical signs are scant feces and emaciation. 3, record 1, English, - abomasal%20impaction
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Abomasal impaction. Impaction of the abomasum develops in pregnant beef cows during cold winter months when cattle have decreased water intake and are fed poor-quality roughage. It also has been seen in feedlot cattle fed a variety of mixed rations containing chopped or ground roughage (straw, hay) and cereal grains and in late-pregnancy dairy cows on similar feeds. Complete anorexia, scant feces, moderate distention of the abdomen, weight loss, and weakness are usually the initial signs. Body temperature is usually normal but may be subnormal during cold weather. A mucoid nasal discharge tends to collect at the external nares and on the muzzle; the muzzle is usually dry and cracked due to the failure of the animal to lick its nostrils and to the effects of dehydration. The heart rate may be increased, and mild dehydration is common. 2, record 1, English, - abomasal%20impaction

En los bovinos es más frecuente en hembras preñadas durante el último tercio de la gestación. Las causas que pueden desencadenar la impactación del abomaso son múltiples, y se agrupan en primarias o secundarias. Se consideran primarias cuando la impactación ocurre como consecuencia de las características de la dieta que los animales consumen. 1, record 1, Spanish, - impactaci%C3%B3n%20del%20abomaso
