3. Advance the instrument until the distal end of the
insertion portion appears within the endoscopic field
of view.
Clipping Tissue
• Do not extend the clip abruptly from the
distal end of the coil sheath. Also, when
pushing the clip out of the coil sheath,
keep a sufficient distance between the
distal end of the coil sheath and the
mucous membrane. If the clip is
extended without keeping this distance,
the clip may hit against the tissue
unintentionally, and perforation,
hemorrhage or mucous membrane
damage or dropping off of the clip, or
break up of the clip may result.
• Do not force the clip against body cavity
tissue. The clip may be deformed and
does not close properly. This could result
in reduced performance.
• Do not try to forcibly remove the clip if it
becomes caught on the distal end of the
coil sheath. Forcible removal of the clip
could cause patient injury such as
perforation, bleeding or mucous
membrane damage.
• Do not withdraw the instrument if clipping
is not completely finished (when the
slider is not pulled out all the way in the
proximal direction). Doing so may tear
tissue inside the body cavity, resulting in
patient injury, such as perforation,
bleeding or mucous membrane damage.
