Direct Nerve

Sciatic nerve damage in cattle could lead to pain, paralysis and lameness, creating welfare and productivity issues. Damage following intramuscular injection is highlighted in some clinical texts although there is no indication of prevalence. This cross-sectional study investigated the anatomical size and position of the sciatic nerve in four dairy cattle type cadavers. To evaluate the risk of iatrogenic damage, 54 participants placed needles in the dorsal gluteal region of two cadavers each, as per their routine intramuscular injection method. The distance from needle tip to the sciatic nerve was estimated for each. Sixty-nine per cent of injections were placed within 5 cm of the sciatic nerve. Direct nerve puncture occurred in the cadaver in poorest body condition. A short questionnaire revealed that 70 per cent of the participants regularly used the dorsal gluteal region for intramuscular injection and 50 per cent commonly used a volume of ≥20 mL at a single site. It is concluded that the sciatic nerve is at considerable risk of iatrogenic damage. The neck should be promoted as the optimum site for intramuscular injection and improved guidelines are required if the gluteal region is to remain in common use. A lateral site, between the tuber coxae and tuber ischium, is recommended.

Potential Factors

To evaluate milk production performance in stall feeding dairy cattle in relation to associated biological factors such as age of cow, age of first calving, breed and number of parity at Central Cattle Breeding Station, Savar, Dhaka, a cross sectional study was performed on April, 2002 using a structured questionnaire. Local (21%), pure bred "Sahiwal" (12%) and cross bred (L×F1; L×F2; L×F3; SL×F2>) (67%) were the breed of studied cows (n = 62). The average age and milk production of the cow was 94.9 months and 3.9 liter/cow/day. The parity number and age at first calving of a cow were recorded to be average 4 and 43 months respectively. The younger cows (≤99 months) were 6.7 time more likely to have yielded >3 liters/cow/day than the older cows (>99 months) (p < 0.001). Cows with ≤4 parities were recorded to have 7.6 times more chance to produce milk of >3 liters/cow/day than cows with ≥4 parities (10.9%) (p < 0.001)). The milk production of >3 liters/cow/day is 39.3 times higher in the crossbred than the milk production in the local breed (p < 0.001). Keywords: Milk production, potential factors (age, age at first calving, breed, genotype and parity), dairy cattle  doi:10.3329/bjvm.v4i1.1527 Bangl. J. Vet. Med. (2006). 4 (1): 61-63
