Factors associated with mortality in hospitalized periparturient goats
The duration of labor before hospitalization influenced survival
Periparturient reproductive complications appear to be common in hospitalized goats. More information is needed about periparturient reproductive complications and survival in goats with these conditions. The objective of this multicenter, matched case-control study was to identify exposure factors associated with nonsurvival in periparturient does hospitalized ≤1 day or ≥2 days.
The authors evaluated reproductive complications in periparturient does admitted to referral hospitals from October 2021 to June 2022. Conditional logistic regression was used to identify exposure factors associated with nonsurvival in periparturient does hospitalized ≤1 day or ≥2 days.
A total of 198 periparturient were enrolled. Overall doe survival was 79% (156/198). ...
