Features

Engineered to Reduce Bleeding

The COPILOT Bleedback Control Valve / RHV is designed to reduce the blood loss commonly associated with interventional procedures.

The Difference Is in the Design

The COPILOT Valve's unique bleedback control seal features an innovative push-and-release mechanism. Opening the seal with a simple push facilitates the insertion and removal of devices. Once the seal is closed (released position), devices can still be moved freely.

Compatible With RX and OTW Platform Interventional Devices

Switching to the COPILOT Control Valve is simple and seamless. Abbott Vascular has designed the COPILOT valve to be completely compatible with a wide range of interventional devices on both rapid exchange and over-the-wire platforms.1

COPILOT Bleedback Control Valve

 

 

 

INDICATIONS
The COPILOT Bleedback Control Valve is indicated for maintaining a seal around diagnostic/interventional devices with an outside diameter < .096" (2.44mm) during interventional procedures.

 

CONTRAINDICATIONS
The COPILOT Bleedback Control Valve is not intended for use with pressure injections > 400 psi.

 

WARNINGS
This device is intended for one time use only. Do NOT resterilize and/or reuse.

 

Do not inject any fluid if air bubbles are visible within the COPILOT Bleedback Control Valve.

 

To prevent damage to a balloon, it must be completely deflated during advancement/withdrawal through the COPILOT Bleedback Control Valve.

 

Failure to depress the cap prior to inserting a guide wire introducer could cause seal damage resulting in leakage and/or particulate embolization.

 

Failure to open the BBC seal and the clamp seal prior to inserting/withdrawing a diagnostic/interventional device could cause damage to the diagnostic/interventional device.

 

Power injection at pressures greater than 400 psi could result in leakage or detachment of components.

 

Care should be taken to avoid overtightening the clamp seal, as this may compromise the integrity of the diagnostic/interventional device lumen.

 

PRECAUTIONS
Prior to use, inspect the COPILOT Bleedback Control Valve for any damage. Do not use a damaged COPILOT Bleedback Control Device.
