摘要：Income from livestock plays an important role in the socio-economic lives of the people globally. Wounds are a common problem that reduces productivity, increase mortality, impair host immune system, and depreciate hide quality that result in severe economic losses to livestock owners. Various studies have been conducted to develop effective herbal preparations for wound management. A clinical trial was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of a novel topical herbal spray foam viz. AV/MSF/19 (M/s Ayurvet Limited, India) in the management of pocketed wounds in livestock. Twenty cattle having different types of pocketed wounds were assigned to one of two groups: Group T1, receiving treatment with AV/MSF/19, or Group T2, treated with a popular wound-healing spray (Brand X). The response to treatment was assessed based on clinical improvement and time required for wound healing. Results show that the mean time to 100% healing was 8 and 13.75 days in groups T1 and T2, respectively. In group T1, wound healed completely in lesser time and efficacy index was also higher than group T2. Based on the findings of the study, AV/MSF/19 was found to be efficacious in the management of wound in cattle.
