Insert esophagus or trachea to inject drugs into pigs and be careful.

Last Updated: 2024/11/22, Pigs often lose their appetite and even do not eat when they get sick, which makes it difficult for artificial forced drug administration. So, how can we solve this problem? First of all, hold the sick pig and make it stand or lie on its back. Then, use the mouth opener to pry open the pig's mouth and quickly insert the gastric tube into the esophagus along the tongue surface through the root of the tongue. When the position of the inserted gastric tube is correct, the pre-dissolved drug can be injected, and then a small amount of gas is filled into the tube after filling, so that the drug in the gastric tube is emptied. Finally, pull out the stomach tube quickly. Special attention is required.

Pigs often lose their appetite and even do not eat when they get sick, which makes it difficult for artificial forced drug administration. So, how can we solve this problem?

First of all, hold the sick pig and make it stand or lie on its back. Then, use the mouth opener to pry open the pig's mouth and quickly insert the gastric tube into the esophagus along the tongue surface through the root of the tongue. When the position of the inserted gastric tube is correct, the pre-dissolved drug can be injected, and then a small amount of gas is filled into the tube after filling, so that the drug in the gastric tube is emptied. Finally, pull out the stomach tube quickly. It should be paid special attention that the stomach tube should not be inserted into the pig's trachea, so as not to cause the death of sick pigs. The methods to judge whether the gastric tube is inserted into the esophagus are as follows: (1) the compressed rubber ball is connected to the outer mouth of the gastric tube, and the ball remains intact without bulging. After inflating the rubber ball, the gastric tube feels unobstructed, which proves that the gastric tube has been inserted into the esophagus or stomach. (2) if the outer mouth of the gastric tube is immersed in water, if bubbles emerge with the exhalation of diseased pigs, it indicates that the gastric tube is mistakenly into the trachea; if no bubbles emerge, it indicates that the gastric tube is inserted into the esophagus. (3) if the stomach tube is mistakenly put into the trachea, the pig does not bark or the sound is low and weak; if the stomach tube is inserted into the esophagus, the pig's cry remains the same.
