Conquest™ 40 PTA Dilatation Catheters

 

Indication for Use

Conquest™ 40 PTA Dilatation Catheter is recommended for use in Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty of the femoral, iliac, and renal arteries and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. This device is also recommended for post-dilatation of stents and stent grafts in the peripheral vasculature. This catheter is not for use in coronary arteries. 

Contraindications

None known.

Warnings

1. Contents supplied STERILE using ethylene oxide (EO). Non-Pyrogenic. Do not use if sterile barrier is opened or damaged. Single patient use only. Do not reuse, reprocess or re-sterilize.

2. This device has been designed for single use only. Reusing this medical device bears the risk of cross-patient contamination as medical devices – particularly those with long and small lumina, joints, and/or crevices between components – are difficult or impossible to clean once body fluids or tissues with potential pyrogenic or microbial contamination have had contact with the medical device for an indeterminable period of time. The residue of biological material can promote the contamination of the device with pyrogens or microorganisms which may lead to infectious complications.

3. Do not resterilize. After resterilization, the sterility of the product is not guaranteed because of an indeterminable degree of potential pyrogenic or microbial contamination which may lead to infectious complications. Cleaning, reprocessing and/or resterilization of the present medical device increases the probability that the device will malfunction due to potential adverse effects on components that are influenced by thermal and/or mechanical changes.

4. To reduce the potential for vessel damage, the inflated diameter and length of the balloon should approximate the diameter and length of the vessel just proximal and distal to the stenosis.

5. To reduce the potential for stent or stent graft damage and/or vessel damage from the stent or stent graft, the diameter of the balloon should be no greater than the diameter of the stent or stent graft. Refer to the stent or stent graft IFU for safety information including the WARNINGS, PRECAUTIONS and potential ADVERSE EFFECTS regarding the use of balloon postdilatation.

6. When the catheter is exposed to the vascular system, it should be manipulated while under high-quality fluoroscopic observation. Do not advance or retract the catheter unless the balloon is fully deflated. If resistance is met during manipulation, determine the cause of the resistance before proceeding. Applying excessive force to the catheter can result in tip breakage or balloon separation.

7. Do not exceed the RBP recommended for this device. Balloon rupture may occur if the RBP rating is exceeded. To prevent over pressurization, use of a pressure monitoring device is recommended or the use of indicated syringes.

8. After use, this product may be a potential biohazard. Handle and dispose of in accordance with acceptable medical practices and applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations. 

Precautions

1. Carefully inspect the catheter prior to use to verify that catheter has not been damaged during shipment and that its size, shape and condition are suitable for the procedure for which it is to be used. Do not use if product damage is evident.

2. The Conquest™ 40 catheter shall only be used by physicians trained in the performance of Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty.

3. It is recommended to consider the use of anticoagulants, anti-platelet agents, and/or vasodilators in conformance with the accepted standard of practice or institutional guidelines surrounding peripheral endovascular procedures.

4. The minimal acceptable sheath French size is printed on the package label. Do not attempt to pass the PTA catheter through a smaller size sheath introducer than indicated on the label.

5. Do not remove the guidewire in situ to shoot contrast through the wire lumen or perform a wire exchange. If the wire is removed while the balloon catheter is situated in tortuous anatomy, the risk of kinking the catheter is increased.

6. Use the recommended balloon inflation medium (a range of 30-50% contrast medium/a range of 50-70% sterile saline solution). It has been shown that a 30/70% contrast / saline ratio has yielded faster balloon inflation / deflation times.

7. Never use air or other gaseous medium to inflate the balloon.

8. If resistance is felt during post procedure withdrawal of the catheter through the introducer sheath, determine if contrast is trapped in the balloon with fluoroscopy. If contrast is present, push the balloon out of the sheath and then completely evacuate the contrast before proceeding to withdraw the balloon.

9. If resistance is still felt during post procedure withdrawal of the catheter, it is recommended to remove the balloon catheter and guidewire/ introducer sheath as a single unit.

10.Do not continue to use the balloon catheter if the shaft has been bent or kinked.

11. Prior to re-insertion through the introducer sheath, the balloon should be wiped clean with gauze, rinsed with sterile normal saline, and refolded with the balloon re-wrap tool. Balloon re-wrapping should only occur while the balloon catheter is supported with a guidewire or stylet. 

Potential Adverse Reactions

The complications which may result from a peripheral balloon dilatation procedure include: • Additional intervention • Allergic reaction to drugs or contrast medium • Aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm • Arrhythmias • Embolization • Hematoma • Hemorrhage, including bleeding at the puncture site • Hypotension/hypertension • Inflammation • Occlusion • Pain or tenderness • Pneumothorax or hemothorax • Sepsis/infection • Shock • Short term hemodynamic deterioration • Thrombosis • Vessel dissection, perforation, rupture, or spasm
