** Recommended Procedure
1) Remove the guiding catheter from its packaging using
sterile techniques.
2) Flush the guiding catheter lumen with a heparinized
saline solution.
3) Appropriate anticoagulation and vasodilation therapy
should be used.
4) Introduce the guiding catheter into the vasculature through
the catheter sheath introducer, and/or over an indwelling
guidewire using a percutaneous entry technique of choice.
5) Under fluoroscopic guidance, advance the guiding catheter over
the guidewire or introducer until the desired position is attained.
6) Remove the guidewire prior to introduction of other
intravascular devices or infusion of contrast agents.
** Complications
Use of guiding catheters should be restricted to those specialists trained to perform procedures for which the product is indicated.Complications may occur at any time during or after the procedure and may include, but are not limited to, the following: hemorrhage, hematoma, allergic reaction, infection, embolism, blood vessel dissection or occlusion.
