The Elastrator Ring is an essential tool for veterinary elastration, generally used to perform elastration ligation simply and effectively on farm animals. This product is available in packs of 100 rings, making it ideal for extended use and multiple treatments.
Made of high quality materials, the ring guarantees optimal durability and high safety during application, ensuring correct function for elastration. The pack of 100 rings is designed to facilitate the management and conservation of the product, keeping it ready for use on any occasion.
Easy to apply, the elastrator ring is compatible with various instruments for elastrative ligation and guarantees precise compression, promoting a correct elastration process without causing excessive discomfort to the animal. It is particularly suitable for use in cattle, sheep and goat farms, playing a fundamental role in castration procedures and interruption of blood flow in a non-invasive and clean way.
Therapeutic Indications
The Elastrator Ring is used to perform elastrative ligation which involves ischemic necrosis of the tied tissue, allowing castration and tail removal to be carried out in farm animals such as cattle, sheep and goats. This method is particularly suitable for young animals, where rapid closure of the blood flow is essential to minimize pain and reduce the risk of infection. Elastration represents an effective technique, less invasive than traditional surgical interventions, allowing easier management by the breeder or veterinarian.
The elastration procedure is recommended especially in the first days of the animals' life to maximize effectiveness and minimize discomfort. The elastrator ring, applied with the appropriate instrument, must be positioned correctly to ensure optimal compression on the portion of tissue to be eliminated.
Properly performed elastrative treatments help prevent complications such as local infections and inflammatory processes, making this approach a safe and reliable choice for health management in small and large farms.
Composition
The Elastrator Ring is made of high quality elastic material which guarantees uniform and long-lasting compression. The material used is resistant to atmospheric agents and the mechanical stresses typical of the breeding environment, while offering comfort to the animal during the elastration process. The composition is designed to maintain an optimal level of elasticity, avoiding accidental breakages during use and ensuring a long life of the rings in the package.
The pack of 100 rings contains elements with specific diameters and thicknesses to ensure compatibility with most rubber band ligature tools available on the market. This ensures a perfect fit and allows calibrated pressure for effective interruption of blood flow without excessively damaging the surrounding tissues.
In addition to functionality, the materials used are chosen to be biocompatible and to minimize the risk of allergic reactions or skin irritation, allowing safe application in different environmental conditions and for various animal species.
Contraindications
The use of the Elastrator Ring is contraindicated in adult or overly large animals for which the elastrator ligation is not effective or safe, since the compression generated by the ring may not be sufficient to guarantee an optimal result or could cause damage to nearby tissues. Improper use or application on animals with compromised health conditions may result in significant complications, such as infection or necrosis extending beyond the intended area.
It is not advisable to use the ring on animals with active skin infections in the application area or where the skin is particularly fragile or damaged, as this could aggravate the clinical situation and prolong healing times or cause unnecessary pain to the animal. Furthermore, the product should be used with caution or avoided
