Continuous, subjective sonographic grayscale analysis of uterine involution in sows during the postpartum period

Grahofer, Alexander; Nathues, Heiko (13 May 2022). Continuous, subjective sonographic grayscale analysis of uterine involution in sows during the postpartum period. In: 13th European Symposium of Porcine Health Management. Budapest. May 11.-13. 2022.

The aim of this study was to analyse the continuous and subjective evaluation of echogenicity, echotexture of the puerperal uterus as well as the presence of intrauterine fluid in sows of differing parity stages. The goal was to determine associations between grayscale values and simultaneously assessed uterine diameter, body condition, and additional performance parameters such as farrowing duration, placenta expulsion duration, placenta weight and litter weight.
