Veterinary instruments related to the stomach of large animals are often used for diagnostic and surgical purposes. Here are some veterinary instruments that may be used in procedures related to the stomach of large animals:
Rumen Magnet:
A magnet designed to be administered orally to large animals. It helps prevent hardware disease by attracting and collecting metal objects ingested by the animal in the reticulorumen.
Rumen Trocar and Cannula:
Instruments used for emergency relief of gas or fluids in the rumen. A trocar is a pointed rod, and a cannula is a tube that can be inserted into the rumen after the trocar pierces through the abdominal wall.
Stomach Pump (Esophageal Tube):
A long tube used to administer medications, remove ingested toxins, or obtain samples from the stomach or rumen of large animals. It is typically passed through the esophagus.
Rumen Fluid Collection Set:
Instruments for obtaining fluid samples from the rumen for diagnostic purposes. The collected samples can be analyzed for the presence of microorganisms, pH levels, and other parameters.
Rumenotomy Instruments:
Instruments used for performing a rumenotomy, which involves making an incision into the rumen. This procedure may be necessary for removing foreign objects or addressing certain health issues.
Abomasal Trocar and Cannula:
Similar to the rumen trocar and cannula, these instruments are used for emergency relief of gas or fluids in the abomasum (fourth stomach compartment in ruminants).
Abomasal Magnet:
Similar to the rumen magnet, this is designed to be administered orally to large animals to help prevent hardware disease in the abomasum.
Stomach Speculum:
A device used to hold open the mouth of the stomach during surgical procedures, allowing veterinarians to visualize and access the interior.
