Indications, Safety, and Warnings
Onyx™ 12 LES
Caution
Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
This device should be used by physicians with a thorough understanding of angiographic and percutaneous neurointerventional procedures.
Indications for use
Onyx™ LES is indicated for embolization of the middle meningeal artery (MMA) as an adjunct to surgery for the treatment of symptomatic subacute or chronic subdural hematoma (SDH).
Contraindications
The use of the Onyx™ LES is contraindicated when any of the following conditions exist:
When optimal catheter placement is not possible.
When provocative testing indicates intolerance to the occlusion procedure.
When vasospasm stops blood flow.
Warnings
Verify that adequate sedation is used throughout the embolization procedure. Insufficient sedation may result in patient discomfort or movement. Patient movement during embolic agent injection may result in embolization of an unintended vessel.
Failure to continuously mix the Onyx™ 12 LES for the required time (1 minute) may result in inadequate suspension of the tantalum, resulting in inadequate fluoroscopic visualization during delivery.
Onyx™ 12 LES has only been tested with Medtronic/ev3 Onyx™ LES/DMSO compatible microcatheters indicated for use in neurovasculature and Medtronic/ev3 Onyx™ LES/DMSO compatible syringes. Other microcatheters or syringes may not be compatible with DMSO and their use can result in thromboembolic events due to catheter degradation.
Use only 1 mL syringe to inject DMSO and the Onyx™ 12 LES. Other syringes may not be compatible with DMSO.
Onyx™ 12 LES may behave differently than other formulations (Onyx™ 18 and 34 LES), which may lead to unexpected results and may require adjustment in technique.
Premature solidification of the Onyx™ 12 LES may occur if microcatheter luer contacts saline, blood or contrast of any amount.
Inject Onyx™ 12 LES immediately after mixing. If the Onyx™ 12 LES injection is delayed, tantalum settling can occur within the syringe resulting in poor visualization of Onyx™ 12 LES during injection.
Do not exceed 0.3 mL/min injection rate. Animal studies have shown that rapid injection of DMSO into the vasculature may lead to vasospasm and/or angionecrosis.
Only use thumb pressure to inject the Onyx™ 12 LES. Using palm of hand to advance plunger may result in catheter rupture due to over-pressurization in the event of catheter occlusion.
Adequate fluoroscopic visualization must be maintained during the Onyx™ 12 LES delivery or non-target vessel embolization may result. If visualization is lost at any time during the embolization procedure, HALT the Onyx™ 12 LES delivery until adequate visualization is re-established.
Onyx™ LES can lead to increased procedural risk of unintended embolization when encountering an anatomic variation (e.g., ophthalmic collateral).
Do not allow more than 1 cm of the Onyx™ 12 LES to reflux back over catheter tip.
Angioarchitecture, vasospasm, excessive Onyx™ 12 LES reflux, or prolonged injection time may result in difficult catheter removal and potential entrapment.
Excessive force to remove an entrapped catheter may cause serious intracranial hemorrhage.
The long-term effects of an entrapped catheter that is left in a patient are unknown, but potentially could include clot formation, infection, or catheter migration.
After using a microcatheter with the Onyx™ 12 LES, do not attempt to clear or inject any material through it. Such attempts may lead to embolus or embolization of an unintended area.
STOP injection if the Onyx™ 12 LES is not visualized exiting catheter tip. If the catheter becomes occluded, over-pressurization can occur. During the Onyx™ 12 LES injection, continuously verify that the Onyx™ 12 LES is exiting the catheter tip. Testing has shown that over-pressurization and rupture can occur if 0.05 mL of the Onyx™ 12 LES is injected and is not visualized exiting the catheter tip.
STOP injection if increased resistance to the Onyx™ 12 LES injection is observed. If increased resistance occurs, determine the cause (e.g., the Onyx™ 12 LES occlusion in catheter lumen) and replace the catheter. Do not attempt to clear or overcome resistance by applying increased injection pressure, as use of excessive pressure may result in catheter rupture and embolization of unintended areas.
DO NOT interrupt the Onyx™ 12 LES injection for longer than two minutes prior to re-injection. Solidification of the Onyx™ 12 LES may occur at the catheter tip resulting in catheter occlusion, and use of excessive pressure to clear the catheter may result in catheter rupture.
Due to the possibility of electrical arcing with the tantalum metal in the Onyx™ LES material, use of monopolar electrocautery devices for surgical resection of lesions embolized with the Onyx™ LES should be avoided. Bipolar devices should be used with caution.
This device is supplied STERILE for single use only. Do not reprocess or re-sterilize. Reprocessing and re-sterilization increases the risks of patient infection and compromises device performance.
The safety and effectiveness of the Onyx™ 12 LES as a long term implant has not been established.
Clinical testing has occurred only for Onyx™ 18 and 34 LES. The safety and effectiveness of Onyx™ 12 LES has been supported by animal and indirect clinical data; direct clinical studies using Onyx™ 12 LES have not been performed.
Not for use with premature infants (<1500 g) or individuals with significant liver and kidney function impairment.
Performing embolization to occlude blood vessels is a high-risk procedure. This device should be used only by physicians with neurointerventional training and a thorough knowledge of the pathology to be treated, angiographic techniques, and super-selective embolization.
After Onyx™ LES embolization of the arteries feeding target branch/es of the MMA may be subject to increased pressures as a result of changes in hemodynamics. Increased arterial pressures could result in hemorrhagic complications.
Animal experimentation has shown that when the Onyx™ 12 LES escapes outside the vascular space, as might occur if the vessel wall is compromised, a subacute inflammatory response to the material may occur. Increased intracranial pressure due to unresorbed Onyx™ 12 LES material in this space may cause tissue damage.
DMSO can initiate the liberation of histamine and there has been an occasional hypersensitivity reaction with topical administration of DMSO. This hypersensitivity has been reported in one patient being treated for interstitial cystitis. If anaphylactoid symptoms develop, appropriate therapy should be instituted.
DMSO may interact with other embolic agents, such as polymer coated coils, e.g., gel coatings and suture material coated coils.
Therapeutic embolization should not be performed when high blood flow precludes safe infusion of the embolic agent.
The microcatheter tip should be placed so that embolization of the MMA target branch/es occurs distal to any arterial vessels that may supply normal brain tissue or cranial nerves.

DO NOT interrupt the Onyx™ 12 LES injection for longer than two minutes prior to re-injection. Solidification of the Onyx™ 12 LES may occur at the catheter tip resulting in catheter occlusion, and use of excessive pressure to clear the catheter may result in catheter rupture.
The safety and effectiveness of this device for radial neurovasculature access in direct comparison to a transfemoral approach has not been demonstrated. The risks and benefits for radial access against a transfemoral approach should be carefully weighed and considered for each patient.
Precautions
The safety and effectiveness have not been studied in the following patient populations:
Pregnant and nursing women
Individuals less than 18 years old
Individuals not diagnosed with subacute or chronic subdural hematoma
Individuals with significant contraindication to angiography
Individuals identified with potentially dangerous anatomical variations leading to increased procedural risk
Some data indicate that DMSO potentiates other concomitantly administered medications.
A garlic-like taste may be noted by the patient with use of the Onyx™ 12 LES due to the DMSO component. This taste may last several hours. An odor on the breath and skin may be present. • Inspect product packaging prior to use. Do not use if sterile barrier is open or damaged.
Use the Onyx™ 12 LES prior to the “Use-by date” printed on the package.
If using radial artery access, perform a screening examination of the radial artery per institutional practices to ensure that radial access is appropriate for the patient.
If using a guide sheath or introducer sheath, ensure the radial artery lumen diameter is larger than the outer diameter of the guide sheath or introducer sheath.
Operators should take all necessary precautions to limit X-ray radiation doses to patients and themselves by using sufficient shielding, reducing fluoroscopy times, and modifying X-ray technical factors where possible.
Verify that the catheters and accessories (see directions for use) used in direct contact with the Onyx™ 12 LES polymer are clean and compatible with the material and do not trigger polymerization or degrade with contact. Use only Onyx™ LES /DMSO compatible microcatheters indicated for use in the neurovasculature and syringes. Other microcatheters or syringes may not be compatible with DMSO and their use can result in thromboembolic events due to catheter degradation. Refer to the Warnings and Directions for Use sections.
Wait a few seconds following completion of the Onyx™ 12 LES injection before attempting catheter retrieval. Failure to wait a few seconds to retrieve the microcatheter after the Onyx™ 12 LES injection may result in fragmentation of the Onyx™ LES into non-target vessels.
Difficult catheter removal or catheter entrapment may be caused by any of the following:
Angioarchitecture
Vasospasm
Reflux
Injection time
To reduce the risk of catheter entrapment, carefully select catheter placement and manage reflux to minimize the factors listed above.
Should catheter removal become difficult, the following will assist in catheter retrieval:
Carefully pull the catheter to assess any resistance to removal.
If resistance is felt, remove any “slack” in the catheter.
Gently apply traction to the catheter (approximately 3-4 cm of stretch to the catheter).
Hold this traction for a few seconds and release. Assess traction on vasculature to minimize risk of hemorrhage.
This process can be repeated intermittently until catheter is retrieved.
For entrapped catheters:
Under some difficult clinical situations, rather than risk rupturing the malformation and consequent hemorrhagic complications by applying too much traction on an entrapped catheter, it may be safer to leave the microcatheter in the vascular system.
This is accomplished by stretching the catheter and cutting the shaft near the entry point of vascular access allowing the catheter to remain in the artery.
If the catheter breaks during removal, distal migration or coiling of the catheter may occur. Same day surgical resection should be considered to minimize the risk of thrombosis.
Adverse Events
A prospective, randomized, multi-center clinical trial (EMBOLISE) was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of embolization of the middle meningeal artery (MMA) using Onyx™ 18 and 34 LES for treatment of symptomatic subacute or chronic subdural hematoma (SDH). The adverse events observed in this clinical study are also applicable to Onyx™ 12 LES. Refer to the CLINICAL STUDY RESULTS section of the Instructions for Use for adverse events reported in the EMBOLISE trial.
Clinical testing has occurred only for Onyx™ 18 and 34 LES. The safety and effectiveness of Onyx™ 12 LES has been supported by animal and indirect clinical data; direct clinical studies using Onyx™ 12 LES have not been performed.
Potential Complications
Potential complications of the device and the embolization procedure, include or are synonymous with, but may not be limited to the following:
Access site complications such as fistula, pseudo-aneurysm, pain and tenderness, inflammation, necrosis, granuloma, pathological hand cold intolerance, amputation, hematoma or hemorrhage, compartment syndrome, hand dysfunction
