Abstract

The clip has a partitionable skin support plate containing a space for fixing and holding the tick between its body and hypostom. A standard cold spray (1) based on e.g. tetrafluoroethane is sprayed onto the tick via a flexible tube (2) connected to the space in which the tick is held, so that the tick is killed by freezing it to ca. -55 deg.C.

BeschreibungDescription Klammer zur Entfernung von Zecken durch VereisungClamp for removing ticks by freezing

Zecken sollten immer schnell entfernt werden. Wichtig ist die Vermeidung früher angewandter Verfahren wie z.B. das Beträufeln mit Öl oder Nagellack. Die Verwendung von Pinzette, Skalpell oder wie auch empfohlen der Fingernägel, ist bei einer lebenden Zecke doch meist ein Problem. Unbedingt vermieten werden muß ein zerdrücken oder quetschen der Zecke. Mit der Klammer zur Entfernung von Zecken durch Vereisung wird, wie in Fig. 3 der Zeichnung, (Klammer geöffnet) die Zecke fixiert.Ticks should always be removed quickly. It is important to avoid previously used methods such as sprinkling oil or nail polish on the tick. Using tweezers, a scalpel or, as recommended, fingernails is usually a problem with a live tick. Crushing or squeezing the tick must be avoided at all costs. The tick is fixed in place with the clamp for removing ticks by freezing, as shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing (clamp open).

Fig. 1 zeigt die Klammer durch Federdruck 3 im geschlossenen Zustand. Dabei befindet sich die Zecke mit Leib und Hypostom zwischen der Aussparung 6 der Hautauflageplatte 7. Mit einem handelsüblichen Kältespray 1, z.B. auf Basis von Tetrafluorethan, wird die Zecke durch ein flexibles Rohr 2, daß wie in Fig. 2 durch die Aufnahme 4 mit der Klammer verbunden wird, durch kurzes besprühen sofort auf ca. -55°C abgekühlt, hartvereist und abgetötet. Mit der Pinzetteneinrichtung 8 kann die nun locker sitzende Zecke, auch kleinere Exemplare wie z.B. im Nymphenstadium, leicht aus der Haut gezogen werden.Fig. 1 shows the clamp closed by spring pressure 3. The tick is located with its body and hypostome between the recess 6 of the skin support plate 7. Using a commercially available cold spray 1, e.g. based on tetrafluoroethane, the tick is immediately cooled to approx. -55°C, frozen solid and killed by a short spray through a flexible tube 2 that is connected to the clamp by the holder 4 as in Fig. 2. The tick, which is now loosely attached, can be easily pulled out of the skin using the tweezers device 8, even smaller specimens such as those in the nymph stage.

Damit keine Körperbehaarung in die zweigeteilte geschlossene Hautaufiageplatte eingeklemmt wird, befinden sich in dem Spalt (Fig. 4) beitseitig Abstandshalter 5.To ensure that no body hair gets caught in the two-part closed skin support plate, spacers 5 are located in the gap on both sides (Fig. 4).
