How to deal with postpartum stillbirth in sows, sharing effective methods

Postpartum stillbirth is a common problem in sows and needs to be dealt with promptly to avoid affecting the health of the sow. This article will introduce several effective methods to deal with postpartum stillbirth in sows.

1. Guided exclusion of stillbirth

When a sow gives birth to a dead fetus, we can use warm water soaking to soften the dead fetus, and then use gentle massage and pressure to guide the expulsion of the dead fetus. This method can reduce the sow's pain and avoid infection.

2. Seek veterinary help

If the sow's postpartum stillbirth is serious and cannot be treated by guided elimination, it is recommended to seek veterinary help in time. The veterinarian will use appropriate treatment methods according to the specific situation, including surgery and other means to eliminate the stillbirth.

3. Provide good postpartum care

Postpartum sows need more careful care to keep the delivery room clean and hygienic to avoid the spread of infection. At the same time, attention should be paid to supplementing the sows with sufficient nutrition to promote recovery.

4. Prevent postpartum stillbirth

In order to reduce the occurrence of postpartum stillbirth in sows, farmers need to pay attention to the feeding and management of sows to avoid the impact of stress factors on sows after delivery. Reasonable feeding environment and feed management can effectively prevent the occurrence of stillbirth.

Through the application of the above methods, the problem of postpartum stillbirth in sows can be effectively dealt with, ensuring the health and production efficiency of sows.
