How To Use
-
Restrain the Animal: The animal must be securely and calmly restrained to prevent movement and injury.
-
Isolate Spermatic Cord: The scrotum is grasped to isolate one of the two spermatic cords. It is crucial to ensure the urethra and other tissues are not included.
-
Position the Instrument: The jaws of the Burdizzo are placed on the isolated spermatic cord, making sure to avoid the scrotal skin. The skin should be moved to the side so that only the cord is within the clamp.
-
Crush the Cord: The handles are then squeezed together firmly and held for a sufficient duration (typically 30 seconds or more) to crush the cord and blood vessels.
-
Repeat: The procedure is then repeated on the second spermatic cord, leaving a small gap between the two crush sites to prevent necrosis of the scrotal skin.
