Step 9 – Deliver Therapy
While observing balloon positioning and lesion characteristics under fluoroscopy, press and hold the THERAPY button on the IVL Connector
Cable. The IVL Generator will deliver lithotripsy pulses via the IVL Catheter balloon while the THERAPY button is depressed unless the IVL
Generator determines that therapy is to be interrupted. As each therapy pulse is delivered, the THERAPY STATUS indicator will blink once, the
PULSE COUNT display will decrement by one, and the Generator will sound one click. Confirm therapy delivery by continuously monitoring under
fluoroscopy (see IVL Catheter IFU for additional information). To stop therapy, simply release the THERAPY button.
NOTE: There is no need to make any adjustments for dosage levels or pulse rates. All such settings are pre-programmed for given catheter
types.
Step 10 – Pause Period / Resume Therapy
The IVL Generator is designed to force a brief pause in therapy at designated intervals. If the user attempts to deliver a quantity of pulses
without pausing, the IVL Generator will automatically interrupt therapy for a pause period. The THERAPY STATUS indicator will be yellow during
this period. To resume therapy, wait for the THERAPY STATUS indicator to become green again (two beeps will sound). Simply release and
press the THERAPY CONTROL again to resume therapy. Refer to the applicable IVL Catheter IFU for specifics on the maximum number of
continuous pulses allowed and the duration of the pre-programmed pause period. Care must be taken not to exceed the recommended
maximum number of pulses in the same treatment segment.
Step 11 – IVL Catheter End of Life
The IVL Generator is designed to sense the end of the useful life of the IVL Catheter. Should this occur the PULSE COUNT will indicate “0”
pulses remaining and the IVL Generator will interrupt therapy. The display will indicate a catheter error and a yellow light will appear around the
POWER ON/OFF button. Replacing the IVL Catheter with a new one is required before the IVL Generator may be used again. Refer to the
applicable IVL Catheter IFU for maximum pulse count per catheter (useful life) specifications.
Step 12 – IVL Catheter Replacement
Detach the IVL Catheter by first sliding the sterile sleeve out of the way moving it proximally along the IVL Connector Cable. Next, gently pull
the CATHETER CONNECTOR and IVL Connector Cable apart to separate the IVL Catheter from the IVL Connector Cable connector (see
illustration). Take care not to contaminate the connectors with fluids or other foreign matter during this procedure. Position IVL Connector
Cable to help ensure the connector remains free of contamination until the IVL Catheter can be replaced.
CAUTION: Discard the used IVL Catheter per standard hospital procedures. Used IVL Catheters cannot be re-sterilized and are designed for
single use only. Re-use of IVL Catheters can lead to patient injury. Connect a new IVL Catheter and resume patient treatment following the
steps outlined above, beginning at step #5. Refer to the IVL Catheter IFU for information about recommended balloon overlap to prevent
geographic miss. However, care must be taken not to exceed the recommended maximum number of pulses in the same treatment segment as
indicated in the IVL Catheter IFU.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
The IVL Generator delivers low-energy, short-duration, high-voltage pulses to the IVL Catheter through the IVL Connector Cable. The system is designed not to deliver
pulses unless an IVL Catheter connector is mated with the IVL Connector Cable and IVL Generator. It is important not to allow the contacts or internal surfaces of
unmated connectors to be contaminated with fluids. Do not allow any connector to become contaminated by or immersed in fluid s. Failure to observe these
precautions may damage the cables or catheters.
