This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: closed casration of cattle intra, burdizzo how does it work? crushes the blood vessels, interrupts the blood supply to the testicle and thus kills the testicle, closed castration one month and older burdizzo, Position the Burdizzo correctly for crushing. One jaw of the Burdizzo has projections at each end to keep the spermatic cord from slipping out of the Burdizzo. Place the jaw with the projections on the LATERAL side of the scrotum. Point the projections toward you. 3. Include only the part of the scrotum that contains the spermatic cord between the jaws of the Burdizzo. Do not crush more of the scrotum than necessary. The jaws should be placed just above (1-1.5 cm) the top of the testicle., With the calf standing and both testicles in the scrotum, stretch the ring open and slip the open band up over the scrotum. Release the band just above the top of the testicles (~0.5 cm), not at the base of the scrotum. 4. Check to be sure both testicles are still in the tip of the scrotum and that the ring is placed properly . If not, cut the ring with scissors and start again, area with antiseptic tools must be clean use local blocks, elastic band method 1. Pull both testicles into the scrotum. A muscle attached to each testicle will be pulling against you, Pull both testicles into the scrotum. A muscle attached to each testicle will be pulling against you 2. Place the rubber band on the elastrator. Hold the elastrator with the prongs facing up. Close the handles to open the band, closed castration before area with antiseptic tools must be clean, burdizzo instructions and pics links to castration methods, area with antiseptic tools must be clean use screw worm, client info burdizzo Check calves four to six weeks later to be sure the testicles have shriveled. remember- The testicles swell initially and then degenerate and shrink in size., Check to be sure both testicles are still in the tip of the scrotum and that the ring is placed properly . If not, cut the ring with scissors and start again 5. Remove the elastrator from under the band, closed castration don't forget client info, area with antiseptic tools must be clean consider antibiotics, Place the rubber band on the elastrator. Hold the elastrator with the prongs facing up. Close the handles to open the band 3. With the calf standing and both testicles in the scrotum, stretch the ring open and slip the open band up over the scrotum. Release the band just above the top of the testicles (~0.5 cm), not at the base of the scrotum., CLAMP for 3mins 5. Release the Burdizzo, move it to a new site 1 cm below your first site, and repeat steps to clamp. Choose a site below the first crush to minimize acute pain from a second crush, elastic band method side note Use elastic rings purchased within the last 12 months to avoid breakage and assure a tight fit, Release the Burdizzo, move it to a new site 1 cm below your first site, and repeat steps to clamp. Choose a site below the first crush to minimize acute pain from a second crush ???? Repeat the procedure on the opposite side, area with antiseptic tools must be clean use analgesia, Include only the part of the scrotum that contains the spermatic cord between the jaws of the Burdizzo. Do not crush more of the scrotum than necessary. The jaws should be placed just above (1-1.5 cm) the top of the testicle. 4. CLAMP for 3mins
