  • Abstract A procedure to secure a jugular vein catheter system to the neck of cattle is described. A wide-mouthed polypropylene bottle attached to a halter strap provided a secure container for the catheter. This device allowed convenient access to the catheter for repeated sampling and, apparently, reduced discomfort to the cattle. Resume Procedure simple pour frxer a demeure une sonde dans la veine jugulaire des bovins, afin de proceder a des prelievements sanguins frequents. Une proc6dure pour fixer une sonde dans la veine jugulaire des bovins est decrite. Une bouteille en polypropylene a large goulot attachee au licou constitue un contenant securitaire pour loger la sonde.
