Uso de diferentes dosis de aspirina y aminofilina para reducir la incidencia del sindrome ascítico en pollos broiler en la altura

摘要

Ascites syndrome (AS) is a worldwide disease that affects broiler chickens with mayor incidence in higher geographical areas. AS has a complex etiology, and may be predisposed where conditions of poor ventilation, cold and respiratory diseases exist that leads to hypoxia. Hypoxia generates increased blood viscosity by increasing hematocrit and red blood cells, difficulting circulation and proper oxygenation of blood causing overstress to the heart. There were two different action drugs dissolved in drinking water, a bronchodilator aminophylline and aspirin, prostaglandin inhibitor, in order to determine their impact in reducing SA at 2.460 m above sea level.
