Abstract

This study, based on a questionnaire, examines the treatment and prevention strategies for Traumatic Reticulo-Peritonitis (TRP) among cattle owners in Sulaimani province, located in North-East Iraq. The survey assesses the frequency of practices such as surgical procedures, post-operative care, medication administration (antibiotics and analgesics), specific feeding, and the use of vitamins and minerals as supplements. Analyzed responses from 280 cattle owners were categorized as 'Yes', 'No', or 'Sometimes' to indicate the frequency of each practice. The study shows strong connections between affirmative management measures, including the use of dry food and antibiotics, indicating a broad acceptability of these methods in addressing TRP more than 75% of the respondents confirmed their use. Surgical procedures and the significance of owner care were highlighted as common strategies, emphasizing a comprehensive approach to treating the illness. However, there is significant variations in the implementation of post-operative care and supplementing procedures, as well as a clear sense of 'Careless owner' practices, suggesting differing views on their efficacy. The results highlight the necessity of focused training efforts to encourage evidence-based management methods, particularly for owners with non-traditional perspectives on TRP causes and treatments. The results offer important information for veterinary health authorities to create intervention programs and policy frameworks to improve TRP management and cattle welfare in the region. This emphasizes the need for targeted initiatives to reduce practice variability and enhance cattle health using evidence-based strategies.
