Three ewes with naturally occurring pregnancy toxaemia and increased plasma glucose concentrations within 24 h of the onset of clinical signs, made a complete recovery following treatment with a concentrated oral rehydration solution. Four ewes in which plasma glucose concentrations fell did not recover. Ewes with elevated plasma alkaline phosphatase concentrations were slower to recover than ewes with normal plasma alkaline phosphatase concentrations. These findings suggest that plasma alkaline phosphatase concentration and change in plasma glucose concentration might offer useful prognostic indices in cases of ovine pregnancy toxaemia, and influence a decision to perform an elective caesarean operation. Further studies using a larger number of ketotic ewes are necessary before firm conclusions can be made.
三只自然发生妊娠毒血症且在临床症状出现后24小时内血浆葡萄糖浓度升高的母羊，在用浓缩口服补液溶液治疗后完全康复。四只血浆葡萄糖浓度下降的母羊没有康复。血浆碱性磷酸酶浓度升高的母羊比血浆碱性磷酸酶浓度正常的母羊恢复得慢。这些发现表明，血浆碱性磷酸酶浓度和血浆葡萄糖浓度的变化可能为绵羊妊娠毒血症病例提供有用的预后指标，并影响是否进行选择性剖宫产手术的决定。在得出确切结论之前，有必要使用更多数量的酮血症母羊进行进一步研究。
