  • Title: [The problem mare part 2: treatment].
    Author: Bergman HJ, de Kruif A, van Dessel S.
    Journal: Tijdschr Diergeneeskd; 2000 Jun 15; 125(12):381-7. PubMed ID: 10902144.
    Abstract:
    In this article different possible treatments for problem mares are discussed. The therapeutic possibilities vary and can be classified into anatomical correction, anti-infectious therapy, and treatment to enhance the uterine defence mechanisms. Anatomical correction and treatment with antibiotics are valuable therapies and have been used for many years. In recent years, stimulation of the mechanical defence mechanism of the uterus, by flushing it with physiological solution combined with parenteral oxytocin, has been shown to increase the chance of getting problem mares in foal.
