When shaping the distal end, do not shape with a sharp edged instrument. Use the minimum force needed so that the coil is not damaged. Inspect the coil and
OptoWire for damage after shaping and before using.
Do not flex the proximal end of the OptoWire. Excessive flexing resulting kink may affect the OptoWire performance resulting in inaccurate pressure reading.
Do not attempt to straighten a guidewire that has been kinked.
In both diagnostic and interventional procedures clean OptoWire thoroughly with heparinized saline before and after each insertion.
The accuracy of the diagnostic information may be affected, ensure the following but not limited to:
o
Proper selection of guide catheter size, positioning and type.
o
Ensure optimal aortic pressure waveform before FFR procedure.
o
Proper procedure and positioning of the OptoWire sensor element outside the guide catheter to achieve correct equalization.
o
Optimal maximum coronary and myocardial hyperaemia.
o
Unaffected blood flow by interventional devices, such as balloon catheters.
o
Free from contact with atrial or ventricular walls which may result in pressure artefacts.
Confirm the compatibility of the guidewire diameter with the interventional device before actual use.
OptoWire may become entangled in one or more stent struts when advancing into a stented vessel where the stent is not fully apposed against the vessel wall. This may
result in entrapment, shredding of the OptoWire and/or stent dislocation.
Avoid having OptoWire to come into contact with stent struts when advancing the OptoWire into a stented vessel. This may result in entrapment, shredding of the
OptoWire and/or stent dislocation.
Use caution when advancing or retracting the OptoWire through a deployed stent as use of this technique carries additional patient risks and may cause OptoWire
damages, stent entanglement or stent dislocation.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
Preparation for and Initial use
Check to ensure package has not been opened or damaged.
Open sealed pouch and remove tray using sterile technique and place the tray flat on the sterile field.
Connect the FOIC connector to the OptoMonitor Handle Unit.
Remove the Gauge Factor Connector from the plastic tray and connect to the OptoMonitor Handle unit.
Automatic Zero to atmosphere
The OptoWire will ZERO automatically as soon as the OptoWire FOIC connector is inserted into the OptoMonitor Handle Unit. Insert the matching Gauge Factor
Connector into the OptoMonitor Handle Unit.
In the event of "No Signal, check OptoWire connection", verify that the proximal end of the guidewire is fully inserted into the Handle.
Zero is not performed if the OptoWire pressure varies: OptoWire must be pulled out of guiding catheter for zeroing.
Once zeroed, flush the working length of the OptoWire with saline solution and carefully remove the guidewire from the tray.
If indicated, the guidewire distal tip may be shaped using standard tip-shaping practices. Do not use a shaping instrument with a sharp edge. After shaping, verify that
there is no damage to the guidewire before using it.
Equalization
Advance the OptoWire through guiding catheter using the appropriate guidewire introducer.
Insert and position the pressure sensor (3.5 cm from tip) just outside of the guiding catheter opening in using the radiopaque marker of the interventional device to
confirm position (radiopaque section is 3.5 cm of the entire tip).
Flush the guiding catheter repeatedly with normal saline because contrast medium may dampen the catheter pressure waveform.
Verify aortic transducer's position and ensure optimal aortic pressure waveform.
Equalize. Verify the pressure from the guiding catheter and the OptoWire are equal.
Pressure Measurement and Induce Hyperemia
Advance the OptoWire tip under fluoroscopy using contrast injections to verify location.
Steer the pressure sensor to region of interest. Ensure the OptoWire tip is rotating freely and no resistance is felt when torque is applied.
Induce maximal hyperemia according to standard clinical procedure.
Perform pressure measurements according to standard clinical procedure. If needed, a pullback curve may be performed.
Interventional procedure
Rotate the Handle locking mechanism to unlock position and retrieve the OptoWire gently from the Handle and remove the torque device.
Track the interventional device over the OptoWire while taking care not to kink the proximal portion of the OptoWire.
Proceeds according to manufacturer's instructions.
To get post procedure pressure measurement, gently reinsert the OptoWire into its Handle and rotate the locking mechanism to the locked position to obtain pressure
measurement. Clean the proximal end of the OptoWire with heparinized saline if needed.
End of procedure – Pullback signal drift check and disposal
Carefully withdraw OptoWire after procedure. Position the pressure sensor (3.5 cm from tip) just outside of the guiding catheter opening. Verify the pressure from the
guiding catheter and the OptoWire are equal.
Handle and dispose OptoWire following standard solid biohazard waste procedures and in accordance with medical practices and applicable, local, state and federal
laws and regulations.
STORAGE AND HANDLING:
Store in a dry, dark, cool place.
