• When puncturing, suturing, or incising the tissue near the
sheath, be careful not to damage the sheath. Do not put a clamp
on the sheath or bind it with a thread.
• When inflating a balloon at, or close to, the sheath tip, be sure
not to inflate it inside the distal end of the sheath (Fig. 6). The
radiopaque marker is located approximately 5 mm proximal
to the tip (Fig. 1) and therefore does not actually mark the true
distal tip of the sheath.
8. The side tube may also be used as a continuous infusion site by
connecting an infusion line to the 3-way stopcock.
9. When inserting, manipulating or withdrawing an interventional /
diagnostic device from the sheath, always be sure to hold the
sheath in place.

CAUTION
• Do not suture the sheath tubing since this may restrict access /
flow through the sheath.
• Do not use a power injector through the side tube and 3-way
stopcock. Excessive leakage may occur through the CCV valve
with high/rapid flow injections such as an injection of contrast
to provide a comprehensive image of the aortic arch.
10. After the intended procedure is completed, remove all of the
devices.
STORAGE
Do not store at extreme temperatures and humidity. Avoid direct
sunlight.
