Mastitis is the most frequent and expensive disease in the
Animal Production Units (UPAS-Animal Production Units) of dairy cattle, due to
its serious consequences on economic losses in the quantity and quality of milk
produced. Its cause is directly related to aspects of well-being, health and
hygiene and sanitation of the high milk-producing animals. The study aimed to
discuss the diagnosis, treatment and prevention strategies for managing Bovine
mastitis. In terms of diagnosis, the clinical determination of mastitis in the
UPAS of dairy cattle is based mainly on the preparation, training and
experience of the actors in the dairy activity (veterinarians, herdsmen and
workers). For the prevention of mastitis, it is vitally important to keep the
udder health of each and every one of the cows that are in production in the
UPA, in which the participation of the veterinarians in the training of the
personnel (cattle ranchers and Workers) is of paramount importance. Its benefit
is directly related to the quality of the work during milking and, as a
consequence, with lower cases of mastitis in the UPAS, both clinical and
subclinical. In the treatment of bovine mastitis, it should be standardised and
specific based on the general health status of cows, such as fever, colour and
physical appearance of milk (texture). It is essential to avoid having many
types of antimicrobial treatments.
Clinical cases of bovine mastitis should be treated as quickly as
possible, especially in acute and subacute acute and acute clinical cases.
Hence, in this work, the significant aspects to consider in the diagnosis,
prevention, and treatment of bovine mastitis, considering the use of
antimicrobials and other measures of vital importance essential for its
prevention in UPAS dairy cattle operations, have been discussed.
