Abstract

After elinical examination the blood samples were obtained from twenty five horses with colic and all of them were treated medically. Comprasion of these animals with twenty clinically nonnal horses revealed significant in neutrophil, total protein (P < 0.001) and aspartate aminotransferase levels (P < 0.01). 17.3 % of the horses with colic died. Comparison of the surviving with died animals revealed significant differences in hernatoerit (P < 0.001), total leucocyte, total protein (P < 0.05) and aspartate aminotransferase levels (P < 0.001). In conclusion, it was observed that aspartate aminotransferase had an important role in conjuction with hematocrit, total protein and total leucocyte levels in the prognosis of horses with colic.
Yirmibeş altan klinik muayenelerinden sonra kan alındı ve bütün sancılı atlara medikal tedavi uygulandı. Sancılı at/ar ile 20 adet klinik olarak nonnal atiann karşılaştınlmasında nötrofil total protein (P < 0.001) ve aspartate aminotransferase (P < 0.01) düzeylerinde önemli farklılık or taya çıktı. Sancılı atiann % 17.3'ü öldü. Sanc dan ölen atlar ile iyileşen atiann karşılaştırılmasında hematokrit (P < 0.001), total lökosit, total pro tein (P < 0.05) ve asparlate aminotransferase düzeylerinde (P < 0.001) önemli farklılık saptandı. Sonuçta, sancılı atiann prognozunda hematokrit, total lökosit ve total protein miktarları ile birlikte aspartate aminotransfe rase düzeyinin önemli rolü old ğu gözlendi.
