27
Q

What is vagus indigestion

A

Functional outflow problem from fore stomach e.g. damaged vagus nerve, obstruction, idiopathic

28
Q

What is type I vagus ingestion

A

Failed education -> bloat - Inflammation of vagus nerve

29
Q

What is type II vagus ingestion

A

Failed transport from omasum into abomasum

30
Q

What is type III vagus ingestion

A

Physical impaction by feed, abomasal displacement and volvulus

31
Q

What is type IV vagus ingestion

A

Pregnancy related -> shifting of the position of the abomasum due to the increased size of the foetus causing compression of the abdominal branches of the vagus nerve
