PREPARING FOR AN INTERNSHIP IS A RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS!
In order to become a successful specialist, you need to study a lot. But you also need to work hard so that the acquired knowledge does not just become an unnecessary heavy burden. Therefore, fourth-year students of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine are trained in the most prominent farms of the Republic of Belarus.
In order for the students’ internship to be productive, the Department of Internal Non-communicable Animal Diseases, together with the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Biotechnology of Animal Reproduction, organized on April 8 a joint meeting of the scientific student circles “going forward” (scientific supervisors Associate Professor Petrovsky Sergey and assistant Vaskin Valery) and “reproduction” (scientific supervisor Panaskov Mikhail).
During the meeting, members of the clubs Polina Poznyak, Anna Khokhlyanok, Igor Yurchenko, Nikolay Melyantsev, Ekaterina Lakun, Evgeny Dashkevich, Elizaveta Kondrashkova and a number of other caring students and undergraduates held a kind of master class.
They learned and, most importantly, gained practical knowledge about two diseases that cause enormous economic damage to industrial dairy farming. Associate Professor Sergey Petrovsky told and showed how to diagnose, treat sick animals and prevent ketosis and the maintenance of rennet. It became clear to those present that the use of already well-known (percussion and auscultation) and more modern (devices for rapid determination of ketone bodies and glucose levels in the blood) diagnostic tools would make it possible to successfully determine the contents of the stomach, ketosis, and a number of other related diseases at the earliest stages of their development, even before applying a large harm.
The “culmination” of the meeting was the installation of a drencher for the cow to inject a large volume of liquid containing sugar, propylene glycol, vitamins, macro- and microelements into the scar. Some details of the process have been revealed, the fulfillment of which will never allow the cow to suffocate during the insertion of the probe, and we will become unwitting accomplices in this. Everyone was interested, but the work continues! There will be more than one meeting of student circles for the sake of obtaining useful theoretical and practical knowledge and their further successful implementation. Both during internships and while working as a certified veterinarian.
See you soon!
