Abstract

Monitoring after calving is required for the maintenance of life in cloned calves. It is imperative that protocols and procedures, as well as the clinical assessment of cardiovascular and respiratory systems are improved for the survival of clones. Evaluations in order to verify the oxygenation capacity of lungs are crucial in neonatal care, and for this purpose has recommended the use of blood gas analysis. The study was divided into four chapters, the 1st chapter: Comparison of differences in neonatal adaptation of Nellore calves (n = 10) and Holstein calves (n = 10) in gas exchange and hemodynamic parameters obtained by through the Swan-Ganz, the 2nd Chapter: hemodynamic evaluation and blood gas analysis of cloned calves (n = 3), and the 3rd Chapter: Reporting the use of noninvasive mechanical ventilation - CPAP- in the treatment of neonatal hypoxic 10 calves and Chapter 4: hemodynamic evaluation and hemogasometric of newborn calves with respiratory disorders underwent noninvasive ventilation with face mask ventilation mode CPAP (n = 12). The purpose of this study is to standardize the use of mechanical ventilators in newborn calves giving the required respiratory support, evaluating hemodynamic pulmonary artery pressure, heart rate, cardiac output by using of the Swan-Ganz catheter, arterial blood gas analysis to evaluation of respiratory disorders and obtaining the parameters normal values, and know the neonatal adaptation of Nellore and Hostein Frisian races. They were determined means of pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary artery wedge pressure, right ventricular pressure, right atrial pressure, temperature, pH, pCO2, pO2, HCO 3, BE, SO 2. The animals were ventilated CPAP- noninvasive ventilation mode with face mask with positive pressure at the end of expiration (PEEP) (AU)
