Efficacy of a Lidocaine-Impregnated Elastrator Band for Castration and Tail Docking in Lambs

Abstract The primary objective of this study was to demonstrate the non-inferiority between lidocaine-impregnated ligation bands (LLBs) and control bands (CBs) with respect to the efficacy of castration and tail docking. Secondary objectives were to compare castration and tail-docking success, evaluate local site reactions, and compare average daily gain (ADG) between the treatment groups. A total of 238 male lambs were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive LLBs or CBs on their tail and scrotum. Lambs were weighed, had a health assessment, and the band site was observed on -3, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42 days after the bands were applied. A linear regression model was built to assess average daily gain, whereas a repeated measures model was used to evaluate body weight differences at each of the measured timepoints. Furthermore, logistic regression models were used to evaluate associations with casting outcomes. Few differences were noted between treatment groups with respect to casting success for the scrotum and tail and ADG over the entire experimental period. Non-inferiority calculations demonstrated no differences in tail docking and scrotal casting success, with casting occurring for the majority of animals by d 21 and d 42 for castration and tail docking, respectively. However, lambs receiving LLBs gained more weight from d -3 to 7 (+0.03 kg/d; 95% CI: 0 to 0.07), which may be an indication of effective pain control during the first week following band application. Overall, the use of an LLB does not affect the time to successful casting of the tail and could improve short-term growth when compared to a control band. Further studies are needed to compare LLBs to multimodal methods of pain relief.

Tail docking and castration are common procedures performed in lambs but are considered painful. Mitigation of the pain associated with these procedures is difficult, especially when using rubber ring castration. The objectives of this study were to compare castration and tail docking efficacy between lidocaine-impregnated ligation bands (LLBs) and control bands (CBs) under field conditions and identify the benefits of pain control provided by LLBs. In this study, 238 male lambs were randomly assigned to receive either LLBs or CBs on both their tail and scrotum. CBs and LLBs were both 100% effective with respect to casting success of the tail and scrotum. Lambs receiving LLBs gained more weight from d −3 to 7 following application, which may be an indication of pain control during the first week following band application. However, there were no differences observed in average daily gain over the entire study period.
