CAUTION Do not push forward or pull backward on the hub
with the stent partially deployed. The hub must be securely
immobilized. Inadvertent movement of the hub may cause
misalignment of the stent and possible damage to the target or
stricture.
After Stent Deployment
a) Examine the stent fluoroscopically and/or endoscopically to
confirm expansion.
b) Carefully remove the introducer system, guidewire and
endoscope from the patient. If excessive resistance is felt
during removal, wait 3~5 minutes to allow further stent
expansion. (Place the inner sheath back into the outer sheath
as the original state prior to removal.)
c) Balloon dilatation inside the stent can be performed on
demand.
11. Perform routine post implant procedure
a) Assess the size and stricture of the Stent lumen. A Stent may
require up to 1 to 3 days to expand fully.
b) Doctor's experience and discretion can determine the
appropriate drug regimen for each patient.
c) After implantation, patient should remain on a soft diet until
otherwise determined by the treating doctor.
d) Observe the patient for development of any complications.
12. Instructions for removal of Niti-S Full Covered Stents (see
Warnings)
Visually examine the Stent for any tumor ingrowth/overgrowth
into the Stent lumen or whether the Stent is occluded. If the Stent
lumen is clear, carefully remove using a forcep and/or snare.
Grasp the retrieval string and/or collapse the proximal end of the
Stent then carefully retrieve the Stent. If the Stent cannot be easily
withdrawn, do not remove the Stent.
Caution: Do not allow excessive force to remove the stent as it
may cause disconnect to the retrieval string.
To reposition a Niti-S Full Covered Stent immediately after
deployment, use forceps or a snare to grasp the retrieval string
and gently adjust to the correct placement.
Please note: the stent can only be repositioned and/or removed
proximally.
