GB | INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
STERILIZATION | PACKAGING
All products are carefully and thoroughly
steam sterilized. Owing to the fact that the
product is packaged in two layers of sterile
packaging, five years of sterility are guaran-
teed. The expiration date for each item is indi-
cated on the package. If the packaging is
damaged in any way, the product should not
be used under any circumstances.
The functional safety and reliability of resteril-
ized products cannot be guaranteed.

REQUIREMENTS OF THE MDD
(DIRECTIVE 93/42/EEC)
The Medical Device Directive requires com-
prehensive documentation of the where-
abouts of medical devices used in humans,
especially for implants. The individual iden-
tification number of the implanted valve
should therefore be recorded in the patient's
medical records and patient passport to
ensure complete traceability. Translations
of these instructions for use into addi-
tional languages can be found on our
website
(https://www.miethke.com/en/prod-
ucts/downloads).
