Connecting the Outflow Tubing

CAUTION!
When using the Aquilex System with MyoSure® or other morcellation systems,
the combination of low set pressures and high vacuum pressures may result in a
significant loss of intrauterine distension pressure which has the potential to af-
fect the visibility of the surgical field. Conversely, when employing high disten-
sion pressures, the deactivation of the MyoSure® or other morcellator system
can lead to pressure spikes that can exceed 150 mmHg. These situations may oc-
cur for a short time as the system automatically adjusts the flow rate to return
to the set intrauterine pressure.
