WARNINGS
• This device is intended for single use only; do not reuse. Do not re-sterilize, as this can compromise device performance, and increases the risk of cross contamina-tion due to inappropriate reprocessing.
• approximate the diameter of the vessel just proximal and distal to the stenosis in Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA).
• When the catheter is exposed to the vascular system, it should be manipulated.
• If resistance is met during manipulation, determine the cause of the resistance before proceeding.
• Balloon pressure should not exceed the rated burst pressure (RBP). Refer to the product prevent over pressurization, use a pressure monitoring device.
• Do not use with Lipiodol contrast media, or other such contrast media which incorporate the components of this agent.
• Do not use, or attempt to straighten, a catheter if the shaft has become bent or kinked; this may result in the shaft breaking. Instead prepare a new catheter.
