209 HK Pregnancy Testers for Horses You can quickly and reliably detect pregnant mares using the pregnancy tester between the 14th and 38th week after the last mating with over 90 % certainty. Ref. no. € 323 1 Made in Germany The problem: • The animal was mated and has since shown no signs of returning to oestrus. However, there is a high risk of false pregnancy. • The animal’s pregnancy has been confirmed, but there are signs of returning to oestrus after a few months. You should not necessarily conclude that a miscarriage has occurred. A fertility treatment or re-insemination despite pregnancy would lead to a miscarriage. The solution: The HK Rheintechnik pregnancy tester provides certainty. The device generates ultrasonic waves that are sent out from the transducer and reflected when they meet separating layers (e.g. tissue fluid). In pregnancy, the amount of amniotic fluid in the uterus increases so dramatically that it slowly descends into the abdominal cavity, meaning the ultrasonic waves can pick it up. The device converts the reflected ultrasonic waves into a continuous noise, indicating pregnancy. An intermittent whistle noise denotes a lack of separating layer – the animal is not pregnant. Advantages: • You can determine when you want the examination to take place • No previous expertise or major training required • No unpleasant transrectal examination required for the animal, so no risk of miscarriage • The device is comfortably worn on the belt, leaving both hands free for measurement • Robust workmanship in a solid plastic housing • Automatic shut-off prevents unnecessary energy consumption • In most cases, the test takes less than 30 seconds • The housing is protected against moisture ingress • Secure storage in the supplied case • 4 x 1.5 V AA (LR6) batteries included Horse Monitoring
