Introduction
The HK Pregnancy Diagnosis Unit is a reliable tool for detecting pregnancy in cows, designed and manufactured by Weiland und Kaspar GmbH & Co. KG, with sales managed by Albert Kerbl GmbH. This unit offers a modern approach to pregnancy detection, eliminating the need for invasive procedures.
Benefits
The unit allows for flexible testing without requiring prior experience or extensive training. It avoids the discomfort associated with transrectal examinations and is risk-free. If results are unclear, the test can be repeated at no additional cost. The device is portable, attaching to a belt for hands-free operation.
Procedure
The probe is positioned below the stifle fold at the base of the udder. If the cow is pregnant, ultrasound waves reflect off the placental fluid, emitting a continuous tone. The test is quick, generally taking less than 30 seconds.
Reliability
From the 90th day of pregnancy, the unit provides over 90% reliability. Incorrect positioning of the probe can lead to false positives, so it is recommended to repeat a negative result after two to three days for confirmation.
Problem and Solution
Early pregnancy detection is crucial as the risk of abortion is high until the twelfth week. The HK unit provides peace of mind by offering immediate and reliable diagnosis, helping to avoid false pregnancies or foetal rejection.
Conclusion
The HK Pregnancy Diagnosis Unit is an effective, user-friendly tool for early pregnancy detection in cows, ensuring rapid and reliable results without the need for invasive procedures.
