Subclinical ketosis is an important and common condition of early-lactation dairy cattle. It is associated with losses in milk production and increased risk of periparturient disease. Prevention depends on several factors, including proper transition-cow nutrition, management of body condition, and the use of certain feed additives such as niacin, propylene glycol, and ionophores. All currently available cowside tests for subclinical ketosis have certain limitations in their use. Effective monitoring schemes for subclinical ketosis can be developed, however, and these may be useful in many herd health programs.
亚临床酮病是早期泌乳奶牛的一种重要且常见的病症。它与产奶量损失以及围产期疾病风险增加有关。预防取决于多个因素，包括适当的围产牛营养、体况管理以及使用某些饲料添加剂，如烟酸、丙二醇和离子载体。目前所有用于检测亚临床酮病的现场检测方法在使用上都有一定局限性。然而，可以制定有效的亚临床酮病监测方案，这些方案可能在许多畜群健康计划中有用。
