Prep instructions;

• Guide Prep: -Remover both protective covers from the end of the guide. -Place a stop cock on the dilator flush port and ensure the tuohy is closed. -Attach a syringe to the dilator stop cock, flush side port then flush forward with the tip underwater until bubbles stop. With your finger over the end of the dilator, open up the tuohy and flush back. Close the tuohy. Remove your finger from the tip of the dilator and flush forward since more, ensuring no bubbles. Place your finger back over the tip of the dilator and turn off the stopcock to the device. -Insert the dilator into the back of the guide ~10cm to break the seal. Then take out and place to the side. -Place a stopcock on the back of the guide and attach a 50-60cc syringe with a short extension tubing attached. Flush side port, then flush forward with the tip of the guide in the air. Once water comes out the end, place finger over the end and turn the stop cock off. Now with your finger still over the end, invert the guide so that the blue handle is in the air and the tip is submerged underwater. Remove your finger. Confirm there are no large bubbles in the guide flush port. -With the tip of the guide still submerged in the water, insert the dilator into the back of the guide until the dilator comes out the back end with a smooth transition. -Add half a turn of negative to the guide. Clip Prep: -Orient the handles so that the black fin faces the ground and the black fastener faces the ceiling. -Replace the red cap with a stop cock and set the red cap aside. Flush the side port, flush forward, turn stop cock off to the device. -Secure the clip over a bowl of saline. -Attach both of your lines to the device. First one goes in the middle facing away from you. Second goes on the bottom of the handle. Turn your middle line on. Flush side port, flush forward. Loosen the black fastener and advance and retract your handle ten times. Leave handle fully advanced. Secure the black fastener. Turn on your second line. Flush the side port, flush forward. Once the clear handle cavity is full attach the red cap. -Retract and advance the lock line 3 times back and forth to the blue line. Leave it in the locked position. -Burp the lock line cap. Close it to finger tight. -Raise grippers. -Unlock the clip. -Lower grippers. -Close the clip to 60 degrees. -Lock the clip. -Close the clip fully. -Open the clip to neutral. -One full revolution in the open direction. -Confirm the clip did not open. -Close the clip to neutral. -Raise grippers. -Unlock clip. -Invert the clip. -Lock the clip. -Close the clip fully. -Lower grippers. -Torque and translate the handle. Leave handle fully retracted. -Load the clip into the blue introducer. -Return the handle to neutral. -Cut off the bag enclosing the clip.
