15 Supplemental Ca treatment options IV Ca Intravenous Calcium Rapid supply of available calcium Appropriate for clinical milk fever Unnecessary for cows with no clinical signs Oral calcium boluses or drenches Will not provide Ca quickly enough for recumbent cow Slow release of different calcium salts or other compounds May be more appropriate for suspected subclinical cases Subcutaneous calcium Intermediate to the above two options Serum total Ca following postpartum prophylactic administration of Ca IV (500 ml 23% Ca borogluconate) or Ca Oral (2 Ca boluses 12 h apart). Blanc et al., J. Dairy Sci. 97: SQ Ca 7 farms, 984 cows w/o visible milk fever Administered Ca SQ immediately postcalving and at 12 to 24 h postcalving Ca gluconate in combination with Ca glucoheptonate (TheraCalcium) Total ~ 10 g of supplemental Ca Results Transient increase in blood Ca at 24 h; no difference at 48 h Treated cows slightly less likely to receive subsequent Ca treatments (5.0 vs. 8.4%) No effect on RP, metritis, ketosis, culling No effect on early lactation production, probability of pregnancy to first artificial insemination, or time to pregnancy. Oral Ca Bolus 2 herds, 927 multiparous cows 1 st bolus 0-2 h after calving, 2 nd bolus 8-35 h after calving (Bovikalc) Mean ica concentrations were not different Treated lame cows averaged 0.34 fewer health events (w/in 30 DIM) Treated cows w/higher previous ME305 milk production cows produced 2.9 kg more milk at first DHI test Miltenberg et al., J.

19 What about Ca levels in close-up diets? Lack of consensus Moore et al. (2000) determined better Ca status as Ca increased from 0.44 to 0.97 and 1.50% of the diet and DCAD decreased Recent data (Chan et al., 2006) suggest Ca at 0.99 or 1.50% in conjunction with anionic supplement maintained adequate serum Ca Lean et al. (2006) meta analysis Suggested less milk fever at either lower < 0.60% or higher Ca concentrations > 2.0% Current Overton recommendation 0.9 to 1.0% if no anionic supplement 1.4 to 1.5% if anionic supplement What about Vitamin D levels in close-up diets? Good consensus 25,000 to 30,000 IU of Vitamin D (cholecalciferol) Some recent research with calcidiol 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 Enhanced responses to negative DCAD diets in some studies (Martinez et al., 2015) but not others (Weiss et al., 2015)
