vated so heparinized saline from the 20 ml
reservoir syringe comes through the back
end cap of the hemostasis valve. (Figure 7)
When all the air has been displaced, the
back end cap should be tightened onto the
proximal end of the occluding wire.

10. The reservoir syringe containing saline
is removed from the inlet port of the check
valve. Replace it with a syringe containing
the desired therapeutic solution. Drip a tiny
volume of therapeutic solution into the
input port luer lock to raise a meniscus as
the connection is made (Figure 8), thereby
preventing the introduction of air bubbles
into the system.
11. Aspirate 1 ml of therapeutic solution
into the infusion syringe. Prime the entire
system with therapeutic solution by depress-
ing the plunger of the 1 ml infusion syringe.
The approximate system prime volumes for
each catheter are as follows:
45cm catheter - 1.0ml
90cm catheter - 1.5mls
135cm catheter - 2.0mls
