The Metricheck Device is an essential tool for identifying endometritis in dairy cattle before mating begins. With 25% of cows developing this bacterial uterine infection after calving, early detection and treatment can dramatically improve your herd's reproductive performance and profitability.

Features of the Metricheck Device:

• Extra 14-20 days in milk per treated cow in next lactation
• Improved pregnancy rates - 51% vs 26% for untreated cows
• Higher submission rates - 94% vs 74% for untreated animals
• Reduced empty rates - 7% vs 26% for untreated herds
• Quick, accurate diagnosis using simple scoring system
• Cost-effective herd management tool

​How It Works:

The Metricheck procedure involves a routine examination of at-risk cows using this device to scoop discharge from the anterior vagina. Based on the discharge appearance, cows are scored using a simple system - scores of 2 or higher indicate endometritis requiring treatment.

Simple 3-Step Process:

• Insert device to collect discharge sample from anterior vagina
• Assess discharge appearance using established scoring criteria
• Treat positive cows (score 2+) with antibiotics 4 weeks before mating

​At Risk Cows Include: 

• Cows with difficult or assisted calving
• Twin births
• Cases of milk fever or ketosis
• Retained foetal membranes
• Dead calves at or within 24 hours of calving
• Older cows with poor body condition scores
• Any cow with vaginal discharge >7 days post-calving
