Abstract
Haemato- biochemical parameters were found
to be useful prognostic indicators in assessing
the severity of colic. Significant increase in PCV,
leucocytosis, neutrophilia and lymphocytosis
was observed in case of severe colicky horses.
Significant increase in the BUN and creati-
nine levels in moderate and severe colic cases.
Severely colicky horses, the elevation of glucose
was found to be double than that of mild and
moderate colicky horses. Hypoproteinemia and
hypoalbuminemia was observed in all the three
groups of colicky horses. LDH was found to be
significantly elevated in horses with moderate
and severe colic cases.
