WARNINGS (FFR/RFR)
Applies to Ultreon™ 3.0 Software:
The heart rate and mean pressure values shown on the OPTIS™ Next Imaging Systems are for reference only and are not intended to be used as the primary display.
Appropriate anticoagulant and vasodilator therapy must be used during the procedure as needed.
Do not use the PressureWire™ X Guidewire if there are any signs of damage.
The system may place the point of index value at the wrong location due to pressure artifacts, for example: abnormal heartbeats, artifacts in AO (Pa) caused by flushing of the guiding catheter, or valve opening/closing. The physician should always confirm that the point selected by the system is a valid point for the calculation of index value.
PRECAUTIONS (FFR/RFR)
Applies to Ultreon™ 3.0 Software:
Before beginning a physiology procedure, review the Performing a Physiology Procedure section for additional warnings and cautions.
Patients with potential microvascular dysfunction and borderline index values should be interpreted with caution, and management strategies should be guided not only by pressure measurement, but also by possible supplementary clinical risk stratification and other tests.
If the cursor position has been saved, the index value is changed accordingly.
Do not turn on more than one PressureWire™ X Guidewire while the system is Searching/Connecting.
If the PressureWire™ X Guidewire is turned off or loses power at any point after equalization, you must remove it from the patient and re-zero it in its plastic hoop in heparinized saline before continuing. Refer to the PressureWire™ X Guidewire Instructions for Use for more information on troubleshooting the PressureWire™ X Guidewire.
If the equalization offset value is greater than or equal to 30, or less than or equal to -30, the system displays an alert icon in the Equalization measurement box. If the system displays the alert icon, try the following to reduce the EQ value:
‒ Confirm the AO transducer is positioned at the same height as the patient’s heart, and re-zero and re-equalize.
‒ If the alert remains, remove the PressureWire™ X Guidewire from the patient and re-zero it in its plastic hoop in heparinized saline.
To prevent incorrect measurement of the aortic pressure by the guiding catheter, causing an incorrect index value calculation:
‒ Flush any contrast remnants from the guiding catheter with heparinized saline.
‒ The insertion tool must be pulled back out of the hemostatic valve.
‒ The hemostatic valve must be closed during pressure measurement.
If you have zoomed in on a section of the recording, portions of the waveform are not displayed (the recording extends off screen). The physician should aways review the entire unzoomed recording before selecting the point for the calculation of the index value.
