• Continue to hold outer tube, take the
compression cap (see Fig. 9 and 10)
and place it into position at the thread
of the bolt. Rotate the compression cap
clockwise for approximately one full turn
(360°). Continue to hold the introducer
at its outer tube to prevent rotation of its
tip in the brain. The introducer should
now be loosely attached to the bolt. The
compression cap must not be tightened
yet, as this will prevent removal of the
guide wire and insertion of the probe.
Insertion of the combined p
temperature probe
• Remove the guide wire (Fig. 4, b) from the
"pO " labelled introducer channel. (Fig. 11).

• Remove the protection tube (Fig. 5, b) from
the probe at location [a] in Fig. 5.
Do not disconnect the extension tube ([d]
in Fig. 5) because it serves to connect the
probe and the introducer.
• Insert the probe as far as possible into
the "pO " labelled introducer channel (Fig.
2
12). Rotate the blue, free rotating lock
ring clockwise onto the female Luer-type
connector of the introducer. To prevent
rotation of the catheter body hold the
protection tube while securing the Luer-
type connection (Fig.13).
• In this position, the tip of the combined
p O and temperature probe is advanced
bt 2
through the lumen of the single lumen
introducer REF IP1 to a depth of
approximately 35 mm below the dura (Fig.
15).
Tightening of the compression cap
• Rotate the compression cap (Fig. 9, b) of
the introducer clockwise tightly onto the
bolt.
• Hold the wings of the bolt with one hand
while tightening the compression cap with
the other hand (Fig. 14).
• The distance between the wings of the bolt
and compression cap is small when tight;
approximately 2 mm (see location [a] in
Fig. 15).
