INTENDED USE/INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Mustang Balloon Dilatation Catheter is indicated for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) in the peripheral vasculature, including iliac, femoral, popliteal, tibial, peroneal, subclavian, and renal arteries and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. The Mustang Balloon Dilatation Catheter is also indicated for post-dilatation of balloon expandable and self-expanding stents in the peripheral vasculature. Mustang Balloon Dilatation Catheters with balloons up to 120 mm in length are indicated for the treatment of biliary strictures.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
None Known.
WARNINGS
The Mustang PTA balloon catheter is not for use in the coronary arteries. Any use for procedures other than those indicated in these instructions is not recommended.
PRECAUTIONS
The Mustang PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter shall only be used by physicians trained in the performance of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. The Mustang PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter should be used with caution for procedures involving calcified lesions or synthetic vascular grafts due to the abrasive nature of these inflation sites. The Mustang PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheters are not intended for injection of contrast medium. Precautions to prevent or reduce clotting should be taken when any catheter is used:
• Consider systemic anticoagulation.
• Flush or rinse all products with sterile saline or a similar solution prior to use.
