How to Measure the ear for an Auralsplint
Participant Acceptance Information
Treatment Instructions
The treatment for aural hematoma involves hypodermic needle aspiration, taping the ear in preparation, installing the ear splint for dog ear hematoma, and removing it after 14 days. A full set of instructions will accompany the order confirmation email. Owners must provide an inflatable protective collar, which is available at most local pet stores; this collar is required but not included with the treatment kit. Be sure to go to your local pet store to purchase your inflatable collar in preparation for receiving the Auralsplint kit, as it is preferred over an e-collar. If the hematoma requires urgent aspiration, #20 needle heads can be acquired at your local feed store—make sure to follow the proper instructions to aspirate. Detailed aspiration instructions are included with the complete set of instructions provided to accepted participants.
Veterinary Treatment
The Auralsplint™ ethical treatment is provided during this study protocol for participants who agree to contribute research to advance the medical protocol. The Auralsplint™ has been tested and proven effective in a previous five-year study, with the manuscript of the study results available on ResearchGate.com. It is important to note that the Auralsplint is not intended to replace a professional veterinarian. Veterinarians should carry the Auralsplint to offer their clients an effective aural hematoma non-surgical treatment option, such as the ear hematoma splint, which provides immediate care. Unique to the Auralsplint treatment is the access to the ear canal after installation, making it suitable for use as an ear wrap for dog hematoma. A visit to a licensed professional veterinarian is recommended to check for underlying causes and assess the overall health of your animal, ensuring the best care, including options like a head wrap for dog hematoma.
