Abstract
Recumbent cow syndrome refers to cows that become recumbent and fail to
rise. Five hundred and fifty six cows presented in recumbency to veterinary
hospital, Namakkal district of Tamil Nadu during the period June 2015 to
May 2019 were analyzed for haematobiochemical changes. There was no
significant difference in the haematological values within the recumbent
cows having metabolic disorders. However recumbent cows due to
abdominal dysfunction, infectious causes, musculoskeletal and nervous
disorders had significant leukocytosis with neutrophilia when compared to
their respective control means. A significant hypocalcemia, elevated mean
creatinine kinase and gamma glutamyl transferase was noticed in all the
recumbent cows when compared to their respective mean serum values of
control animals.
