Identifikasi Penyebab Kematian Domba Melalui Bedah Bangkai di Desa Pantai Mekar, Muara Gembong, Kabupaten Bekasi . (Indonesian)

Identifying the Cause of Sheep Death via Necropsy in Pantai Mekar Village, Muara Gembong, Bekasi Regency. (English)

Sheep breeders generally raise their sheep by releasing and allowing their livestock to graze wildly. This causes the sheep to receive feed intake with unbalanced nutrition. One of the student programs in the KKN-T IPB University in Pantai Mekar Village, Muara Gembong District, Bekasi Regency, were checking physical conditions, socializing management of sheep maintenance and distribution of vitamin B complex which to improve the health of the sheep. It was reported that four sheep were found dead after B complex vitamin administration to in four days. The sheep cadavers were brought to the School of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences, IPB to undergo carcass surgery or necropsy to reveal the cause of death. The results of necropsy found Haemonchus contortus worm infestation in the abomasum of sheep, accompanied by accumulation of fluid under the skin, chest cavity, stomach, and lungs. The cause of death of the four sheep based on necropsy was caused by severe infestation of the Haemonchus contortus type of worm and malnutrition, which lead to hypoalbuminemia and progressed to edema in the lungs, which resulted in shortness of breath (dyspnea). In this case the necropsy results showed that the administration of vitamin B complex was not the cause of the death of the sheep. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Peternak domba umumnya memelihara domba dengan cara melepaskan dan membiarkan ternaknya untuk merumput secara liar, sehingga domba mendapat asupan pakan dengan nutrisi yang tidak seimbang. Salah satu program mahasiswa dalam kegiatan kuliah kerja nyata tematik Institut Pertanian Bogor (KKN-T IPB) di Desa Pantai Mekar, Kecamatan Muara Gembong, Kabupaten Bekasi yaitu pemeriksaan kondisi fisik, sosialisasi manajemen pemeliharaan domba serta distribusi vitamin B kompleks yang bertujuan meningkatkan kesehatan ternak domba. Telah dilaporkan kematian empat ekor domba oleh salah satu peternak setelah pemberian vitamin B kompleks selama empat hari. Kadaver domba dibawa ke Sekolah Kedokteran Hewan dan Biomedis, IPB untuk dilakukan bedah bangkai atau nekropsi untuk mengungkap penyebab kematian. Hasil bedah bangkai, ditemukan infestasi cacing Haemonchus contortus pada abomasum domba, disertai dengan penumpukan cairan pada bawah kulit, rongga dada, perut, serta paru-paru. Penyebab kematian keempat domba berdasarkan bedah bangkai disebabkan oleh infestasi parah cacing jenis Haemonchus contortus dan malnutrisi, yang menyebabkan hipoalbuminemia serta berlanjut menjadi edema pada paru-paru, yang berakibat sesak nafas (dyspnea). Pada kasus ini hasil nekropsi menunjukkan bahwa pemberian vitamin B kompleks bukan menjadi penyebab kematian pada domba-domba tersebut. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
