Title: [The concentration of ionized and total calcium in the blood of female dogs with uterine inertia]. Author: Kraus A, Schwab A. Journal: Tierarztl Prax; 1990 Dec; 18(6):641-3. PubMed ID: 2080510. Abstract: Blood values of calcium, inorganic phosphate and magnesium were estimated in 26 bitches one day before parturition, on the day of parturition and daily for 6 days post partum. In 17 of these 26 animals the diagnosis was dystocia because of uterine inertia. A comparison of calcium levels between those bitches giving birth spontaneously and those requiring assistance gave no indication that blood calcium deficiency was the cause of uterine inertia.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
