Effects of transportation induced stress in electrocardiography data and blood parameters in Kangal Akkaraman sheep breed
Öz
The objective was to
investigate the stress effects induced by transportation in blood parameters
and in electrocardiography data in Kangal
Akkaraman sheep breed. Clinically healthy 36 Kangal Akkaraman sheep were used
in the study. Electrocardiography data from the sheep were obtained by holder
device during the resting period, and during 30 minute and 120 minute
transportation periods. Blood parameters were determined from serum samples
obtained during resting period, and after 30 minute and 120 minute
transportations. Statistical evaluations were conducted by using Paired Samples
t-Test. For each intergroup evaluation, significant differences were observed
in the durations both PR to QT interval and P-wave, in the amplitude of P-wave,
in heart pulse count per minute, and in glucose levels in serum samples.
Significant differences were obtained for durations of both the QRS complex and
T-wave in groups of resting and 30 min transportation, and of 30 min
transportation and 120 min transportation. Significant differences were
obtained for serum total protein, albumin, and creatinine levels in groups of
resting and 120 min transportation, and 30 min transportation and 120 min
transportation. No significant difference was obtained for serum blood urea
nitrogen levels between study groups. This study is the first in literature
where the effects of transportation induced stress in electrocardiography data
and blood parameters in Kangal Akkaraman breed sheep were investigated.
