Appearance Inspection
If any of the following steps reveals irregularities, do not
use the instrument or clip; use a spare instead.
• Do not use the instrument if the distal
end of the coil sheath is deformed. Using
an instrument in this condition may result
in the clip catching on the rim of the coil
sheath after clipping and make it
impossible to remove the clip from the
coil sheath.
• Do not use the instrument if the coil
sheath has any slips, the buckling and
collapse. Using an instrument in this
condition may become impossible to
move through the endoscope
channel.When you forcibly insert the
instrument, it will protrude abruptly from
the distal end of the endoscope. This
could cause patient injury, such as
perforation, bleeding or mucous
membrane damage.
1. Confirm that the distal end of the coil sheath is
perfectly round (not deformed or crushed), and that
there are no sharp protrusions, burrs or edges when
viewing the distal end of the coil sheath from the
direction shown in Figure 3.1.
