Description
Impactions are simple obstructions of the gastrointestinal system. In the horse they include:
- Oesophageal obstruction ('choke')
- Gastric impaction
- Small intestinal simple obstruction
- Large intestinal simple obstruction
Prognosis
Good for impactions that resolve medically (95% long term survival in one study) and fair in horses that require surgical intervention (58% long-term survival in the same study) (84)
Prevention
Frequent small feedings(32)
