Remove the screw-top cap from the vialand transfer the BEARING nsPVAEmbolisation Particlesinto the barrel ofthe syringe. Replace the plunger on the syringe.

To ensure proper hydration and suspension,gently agitate the saline/contrast mixtureof BEARING nsPVA EmbolisationParticlesand then wait 2-3 minutes,prior to injection.

Remove the plunger from a standard30 mL syringe.

Aspirate 10 mLof contrast and 10 mLof0.9% NaCl.

Attach the 30 mL syringe to one port of aluer-lock 3-way stopcock. Attach a 1 mL or3 mL injection syringe to another port onthe stopcock.

NOTE:If desired, a catheter may be attached to theremaining port on the stopcock.

BEARING nsPVA Embolisation Particles

Preparation Chart

NOTE:Purge all air from the system prior to injection.

Draw the BEARING nsPVA EmbolisationParticlessaline/contrast mixture into theinjection syringe slowly and gently to minimisethe potential of introducing air into the system.

Inject the BEARING nsPVAEmbolisation Particlessaline/contrast mixture into the delivery catheterunder fluoroscopic visualisation using aslow pulsatile injection while observing thecontrast flow rate.

NOTE

: If there is no effect on the flow rate, repeatthe delivery process with additional injections ofthe BEARING nsPVA Embolisation Particles saline/contrast mixture. Consider using larger sizedBEARING nsPVA Embolisation Particles if theinitial injections do not alter the contrast flow rate.Exercise conservative judgment in determining theEmbolisation endpoint.
