DIAGNOSIS DAN PENANGANAN MASTITIS PADA SAPI PERAH DI BALAI BESAR PEMBIBITAN TERNAK UNGGUL DAN HIJAUAN PAKAN TERNAK (BBPTU-HPT) BATURRADEN = Diagnosis and Management of Mastitis in Dairy Cattle at the Center for Superior Livestock Breeding and Forage Production (BBPTU-HPT) Baturraden

Abstrak Mastitis merupakan penyakit peradangan kelenjar ambing yang menjadi kendala utama peternakan sapi perah karena menurunkan produksi dan kualitas susu secara drastis. Laporan kasus Tugas Akhir ini bertujuan mengevaluasi diagnosis serta manajemen penanganan mastitis pada sapi Friesian Holstein (FH) di BBPTU-HPT Baturraden guna menerapkan langkah diagnostik lapangan dan terapi yang tepat. Pengamatan komprehensif dilakukan terhadap sapi FH betina laktasi aktif dengan nomor telinga (eartag) 22067. Metode yang digunakan adalah anamnesa, pemeriksaan fisik organ ambing secara inspeksi-palpasi, evaluasi fisik makroskopis pancaran susu pertama, serta pengujian konfirmasi sediaan susu segar menggunakan reagen California Mastitis Test (CMT). Hasil pemeriksaan fisik menunjukkan adanya tanda klinis peradangan akut lokal yang intens pada kuarter ambing kiri depan (sinistra anterior) berupa pembengkakan, warna memerah, suhu lokal yang panas, serta respon nyeri hebat saat palpasi dan pemerahan. Uji sediaan susu pertama secara makroskopis menampakkan konsistensi pecah, sangat kental, dan mengandung gumpalan halus menyerupai keju. Pengujian konfirmasi dengan CMT menunjukkan hasil positif kuat berupa pembentukan matriks gel (crude) yang melekat pada paddle. Penanganan kausatif dijalankan melalui pengosongan kuarter terinfeksi secara higienis, pemberian kombinasi antibiotik sistemik Procaine Penicillin dan Dihydrostreptomycin dosis 1 mL/10-15 kg BB (IM), terapi lokal intramamaria Oxytetracycline hydrochloride 1 spuit post-pemerahan, serta antiinflamasi Meloxicam dosis 0,5 mg/kg BB (IM). Kesimpulan menegaskan bahwa status mastitis klinis pada paritas ke-4 ini bersifat multifaktorial yang dipengaruhi imunitas inang, trauma mekanis sfingter puting akibat kapasitas produksi tinggi, serta higienitas rantai pemerahan. Abstrac Mastitis is an inflammatory disease of the mammary gland and remains one of the major constraints in dairy farming because it drastically reduces both milk production and milk quality. This final case report aimed to evaluate the diagnosis and management of mastitis in a Friesian Holstein (FH) dairy cow at the Center for Superior Livestock Breeding and Forage Production (BBPTU-HPT) Baturraden in order to apply appropriate field diagnostic procedures and therapeutic management. A comprehensive examination was conducted on an actively lactating female FH cow with eartag number 22067. The diagnostic methods included anamnesis, physical examination of the udder through inspection and palpation, macroscopic evaluation of the first milk stream, and confirmatory testing of fresh milk samples using the California Mastitis Test (CMT) reagent. Physical examination revealed severe localized acute inflammatory signs in the left forequarter (sinistra anterior), including swelling, redness, increased local temperature, and marked pain response during palpation and milking. Macroscopic evaluation of the first milk stream showed a broken and highly viscous consistency with the presence of fine cheese-like clots. Confirmatory testing using the CMT produced a strongly positive result characterized by the formation of a gel-like matrix (crude) adhering to the paddle. Causal treatment consisted of hygienic evacuation of the infected quarter, administration of a systemic combination antibiotic containing Procaine Penicillin and Dihydrostreptomycin at a dosage of 1 mL/10–15 kg body weight intramuscularly, local intramammary therapy with Oxytetracycline hydrochloride (one syringe after milking), and anti-inflammatory therapy with Meloxicam at a dosage of 0.5 mg/kg body weight intramuscularly. The case concluded that the clinical mastitis observed in this fourth-parity cow was multifactorial in origin, involving host immune status, mechanical trauma to the teat sphincter associated with high milk production capacity, and inadequate hygiene practices within the milking chain.
