If the Export™ aspiration catheter is to be used with an 0.36 mm (0.014 in) guidewire, consult the guidewire instructions for use (IFU) prior to use.

If the Export™ aspiration catheter is to be used with a 6F (1.78 mm [0.070 in] minimum ID) or 7F (2.03 mm [0.080 in] minimum ID) guide catheter, consult the guide catheter IFU prior to use.

If the Export™ aspiration catheter is to be used with the GuardWire™ temporary occlusion and aspiration system, consult the GuardWire™ temporary occlusion and aspiration system IFU prior to use.

For single patient use only. Do not reuse, reprocess or resterilize this product. Reuse, reprocessing or resterilization may compromise the structural integrity of the device and/or create a risk of contamination of the device which could result in patient injury, illness or death. Cleaning, disinfection and resterilization may compromise the essential material and design characteristics of the device leading to device failure.

Prior to use, the packaging and product should be inspected for signs of damage. Never use damaged product or product from a damaged package.

The Export™ aspiration catheter should be handled carefully. Prior to use inspect the Export™ aspiration catheter carefully for bends, kinks, or other damage. Do not use a damaged Export™ aspiration catheter.

Do not attempt to advance or retract the Export™ aspiration catheter against resistance until the cause of resistance has been determined by fluoroscopy or other means. Maintain visualization of the length of the wire while using the Export™ aspiration catheter specifically in the region distal to the guide catheter and proximal to the Export™ aspiration catheter marker band. Should a loop or excessive slack in the wire be visualized, do not attempt to retract the Export™ aspiration catheter into the guide catheter until the loop or excessive slack is eliminated. Retracting the Export™ aspiration catheter without straightening the wire may potentially tear the wire lumen which could cause dislodgement of the marker band into the vasculature.

Due to the presence of DEHP in the extension tubing of this device, it is not recommended for use in minors and pregnant or nursing women.

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