OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.The presented work addresses the problem of hypoglycemia in neonatal piglets, which represents a serious health risk factor that can lead to mortality. The creative process stemmed from the need to verify and compare the effectiveness of different methods of glucose administration as part of infusion therapy, since clear recommendations for the optimal route of application are often lacking in veterinary and farming practice. Experimentally, three methods of 5% glucose administration were tested – intravenous (i.v.), intraperitoneal (i.p.), and subcutaneous (s.c.) application. The process of generating the results consisted of systematically monitoring changes in blood glucose levels in piglets before infusion and subsequently at four fifteen-minute intervals after therapy, with attention also given to evaluating the application site. The content contribution of the study lies in the objective comparison of the dynamics of individual administration routes: the fastest and most pronounced increase in glucose concentration was observed after i.v. administration (by 36.04% within 15 minutes), subcutaneous application reached its maximum after 30 minutes (increase of 21.86%), while intraperitoneal administration peaked after 45 minutes (increase of 10%). The significance of this creative activity lies in providing practical and experimentally validated information for veterinary practice and pig breeders facing hypoglycemia in newborn piglets. The work offers a basis for more effective neonatal care management, optimization of therapeutic procedures, and reduction of production losses, thereby linking scientific research with direct socio-economic impact.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in EnglishThe study experimentally compared intravenous, subcutaneous, and intraperitoneal administration of 5% glucose in neonatal piglets with hypoglycemia, demonstrating that i.v. application ensured the fastest and strongest effect, while s.c. and i.p. routes showed slower but still measurable increases in blood glucose, providing practical guidance for veterinary practice.

OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practiceThe results of this work have direct significance for veterinary practice and pig breeders, as they provide clear and experimentally validated data on the effectiveness of different methods of glucose administration in neonatal piglets suffering from hypoglycemia. Implementing these findings allows for earlier and more targeted interventions, increasing piglet survival, reducing economic losses due to mortality, and improving overall farming efficiency. From an economic perspective, applying the recommended procedures contributes to more sustainable and productive livestock production, lowers treatment costs, and minimizes the risk of losses in rearing. From a societal perspective, the output supports the quality of animal care and provides new insights into neonatal veterinary medicine, which can also be utilized in education and in the development of professional guidelines.
OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational processThe output provides valuable experimental insights into glucose administration in neonatal piglets, which can be directly utilized in the educational process of PhD students and third-cycle university students in veterinary medicine, animal production, and veterinary physiology. Through this output, students learn to design experimental studies, compare the effectiveness of different therapeutic procedures, evaluate results in terms of statistical and biological significance, and translate theoretical knowledge into practical veterinary applications. Activities related to this output support the development of critical thinking, analytical skills, and practical competencies in neonatal animal care. The output also serves as an educational resource for discussions on ethical and economic aspects of neonatal care management and its impact on livestock production efficiency.
