“…Possibly due to the favorable association of the compounds contained in HoofCare ® . Citric acid is a strong stabilizer (Papagianni, 2011;Prastiwi et al, 2019); tea tree oil is a potent antiseptic, antimicrobial and antiinflammatory (Souza et al, 2014, Battisti et al, 2021Ramadan et al, 2020) and both zinc and copper are essential for tissue repair and potent antimicrobials (Polefka et al, 2012;Hobman and Crossman, 2014).…”

“…Vet. Zootec., v.76, n.3, 2024 DD is a highly contagious infectious disease that causes pain, decreases in production, as well as increases in reproductive problems and susceptibility to other diseases (Berry et al, 2012;Refaai et al, 2013;Nielsen et al, 2016;Pozzatti et al, 2018), even in cases without apparent lameness (Laven and Proven, 2000). It has a multifactorial etiology with several predisposing factors such as genetics, diet, management, environment, and preventive trimming (Silva et al, 2001;Nishikawa and Taguchi, 2008).…”

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of topical HoofCare® in the treatment of digital dermatitis (DD) in dairy cows. Thirty-six high-yielding Holstein cows with DD in at least one limb were included and randomly divided into two groups, making 42 limbs. The alternating treatment group consisted of 21 limbs treated for three alternating days every 48h, and the continuous treatment group consisted of 21 limbs treated every 24h for five days. The cows underwent lameness examination, thermographic analysis, and qualitative and quantitative analysis of the lesions on D0 (time of identification of the lesion and prior to treatment), D4 (fourth day of treatment), and D10 (five days after the end of treatment). The data were compared between different time points and groups. There was no significant difference between the groups for the variables evaluated. However, both groups presented a reduction in the degree of lameness around the lesion, in the local temperature, and regression from the active to the inactive stage of the lesions. Thus, this short-term study demonstrates the suggestive efficacy of HoofCare® in treating DD and recommends conducting further long-term studies.

Background and Aim: To establish prevention strategies, recording the prevalence of foot injuries within a herd should be the starting point in determining the risk factors involved in digital diseases. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of claw disorders in lactating Jersey cows raised in a semi-confinement system. Materials and Methods: Five hundred and eighty-four digits were examined from 73 lactating Jersey cows. The lameness score system was used to assess each cow while walking and on standing position, and digital lesions were evaluated with the cows restrained in a hydraulic cattle chute. Results: The prevalence of digital lesions was 93.1%. Among the 68 affected cows, only 21 were lame. Of the 584 digits examined, 970 lesions were recorded, corresponding to 13.3% lesions per cow and 1.66% injuries per digit. Forty-eight cows (65.7%) had lesions in all digits, and 92.8% of digits had at least one lesion. Lesions in digits of fore limbs were more common (55.3%) (p<0.0001) than those of hind limbs (44.7%). Foot injuries in medial digits of the fore limbs were more prevalent (56.8%) (p<0.001) than in the lateral digits (43.2%). The lesions' occurrence was similar in both medial and lateral digits of the hind limbs (p=0.8347). The primary diseases observed were heel horn erosion (53.8%), white line disease (19.3%), and double sole (12.4%), which together accounted for 92.4% and 84.9% of foot disorders diagnosed in the fore and hind limbs, respectively. Other digital diseases occurred less frequently. Conclusion: The prevalence of foot disorders in lactating Jersey cows raised in semi-confinement systems was high. This could be due to the lack of preventive trimming, infectious diseases, and nutritional problems.
