Chapter 3 Preparation, Inspection and Operation
Rotatable Clip Fixing Device

3.3 Operation
The operator of the instrument and clip must be a
physician or medical personnel under the supervision of
a physician and must have received sufficient training in
clinical endoscopic technique. This manual, therefore,
does not explain or discuss clinical endoscopic
procedures. It only describes basic operation and
precautions related to the operation of this instrument
and clip.
• Operation of this instrument is based on
the assumption that open surgery is
possible as an emergency measure if the
clip cannot be detached from the
instrument or if any other unexpected
circumstances take place. In this case,
refer to Chapter 4, “Emergency
Treatment”.
• When using the instrument and clip,
always wear appropriate personal
protective equipment. Otherwise, blood,
mucus and other potentially infectious
material from the patient could pose an
infection control risk. Appropriate
personal protective equipment may
include: eye wear, a face mask,
moisture-resistant clothing and
chemical-resistant gloves that fit properly
and are long enough so that your skin is
not exposed.
