Product Description
The LeMaitre® Aortic Occlusion Catheter is offered in two balloon sizes; 28 mm or 45mm. It
is a single lumen catheter with a latex balloon specifically designed and sized for use in the
outlined general procedures. The single lumen (inflation lumen indicated by the white stop-
cock) is used for balloon inflation. Other features include a balloon wall thickness designed to
reduce the possibility of puncture by calcium deposits, and a stop-cock to maintain balloon
inflation level throughout the procedure.

tray. The sterility of the package is assured as long as it is unopened and undamaged.

Contraindications
1. The catheter is not to be used as a dilation catheter.
2. The catheter is not to be used for endarterectomy procedures.
3. The catheter is a temporary device and cannot be implanted.
Warnings
1. Do not reuse. The catheter is for single use only.
2. Air or gas should not be used to inflate the balloon during patient use.
3. Do not inflate the balloon to any greater volume than is necessary to obstruct the blood
flow. DO NOT EXCEED the recommended maximum balloon inflation capacity (see
specifications chart).
4. Exercise caution when encountering extremely diseased vessels. Arterial rupture or
balloon failure due to sharp calcified plaque may occur.
5. Care should be taken when the occlusion causes a high pressure situation, such as in
the ascending aorta, which may damage the balloon or cause difficulties to achieve and
maintain vessel occlusion.
