Withdrawal of the endoscopic device
Warning
• Do NOT forcefully withdraw the endoscopic device or in an oblique direction. Doing so
may result in decreased suction strength caused by inlet seal damage, falling of the
broken inlet seal particle(s) into the patient’s body cavity, and potential reflux or dispersal
of patient’s body fluids, posing a risk of infection to the user. When withdrawing the
endoscopic device, prevent the dispersal of patient’s body fluids by covering the inlet seal
with clean gauze, and withdraw the device slowly in a straight direction away from the
inlet seal.
• Immediately stop the therapeutic procedure if significant resistance is encountered when
withdrawing the endoscopic device or if the endoscopic device can NOT be withdrawn
from the endoscope. Do NOT attempt to forcefully withdraw the endoscopic device.
Failure to do so may result in equipment damage. Close or retract the distal tip of the
endoscopic device and slowly withdraw the endoscope into which the endoscopic device
is inserted.
1. Ensure that the distal tip of the endoscopic device is closed or retracted into the sheath.
2. Slowly withdraw the endoscopic device in a straight direction away from the inlet seal.
