The dangerous â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;frothy bloatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is a form of functional blockage, where a stable foam forms in the rumen and prevents the gas that is normally formed in the rumen from being released. This can be an emergency situation, as many cattle deaths can occur without intervention. The increased pressure in the rumen compromises the circulatory and respiratory systems, and can rapidly lead to death. Clovers in lush pastures are a risk factor for frothy bloat, and some paddock environments will be worse than others. Warm humid days increase the risk also. Avoidance of high risk pastures on high risk days, and strip grazing and/or manipulating pasture type can reduce the incidence of bloat. Feed additives and bloat capsules (Rumensin) can be quite effective at preventing bloat in cattle on high risk pastures.
Bloat capsules should be numbered and recorded with the cow number, as the odd cow will burp one up and require a replacement. Treatment depends on the severity of the bloat. Mildly bloated animals can be saved by removing them from the offending pasture, and administering a bloat oil orally. Severely bloated cattle will need a rumenotomy, which in an emergency situation it may be necessary to stab into the rumen with a knife to relieve the pressure. NEWSLETTERS ONLINE

Bloat in cattle can be caused by either physical obstruction of the oesophagus, or functional blockage of the rumen/ oesophageal opening. An example of physical obstruction preventing eructation/gas release would be an object such as an apple or potato stuck down the oesophagus, or a cow down for a prolonged period.
