Do not force a catheter into a narrow vessel or tight stenosis. Be aware that vessel calcification, tortuosity, and untreated vessel spasm are key components of complex vascular anatomy. If the initial guidewire faces resistance or requires further manipulation, consider this to be an indicator of complex patient anatomy.\n\nThe Instructions for Use currently contains the following related precautions for the user:\n\"Do not advance the guide wire against significant resistance. If binding occurs between the catheter and the guide wire while inside the patient, CAREFULLY REMOVE BOTH the wire and catheter and do not use. If binding occurs outside of the patient, remove the catheter and do not use.\"\n\nUsing a long radial sheath avoids this issue by preventing the catheter and guidewire from getting entangled within the sheath.\n\nThe Instructions for Use highlights the minimum sheath/guide catheter Inner Diameter which does not prevent such complications; therefore, a new precaution will be added to the Instructions for Use:\n\"Use a guide sheath of appropriate length to provide adequate support to the rapid exchange IVUS catheter and guidewire.\"\n\nIf you need any further information or support concerning this issue, please contact your local Philips representative or Philips IGTD Customer Service: \nPhone: 1-800-722-9377, Option 1 Email: IGTD.CustomerInquiry@philips.com Hours of Operation: Monday - Friday 8:00AM - 5:00PM PST", "product_quantity": "233,817", "distribution_pattern": "Worldwide distribution - US Nationwide distribution including in the states of AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, HI, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MS, MT, NC, ND, NE, NH, NJ, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY and the countries of BR, PL, SK, IT, DK, DE, GB, AT, KW, CR, ES, NL, LV, MT, IE, CH, ZA, RO, FI, PR, FR, CA, PA, IL, SE, PT, HR, GR, NZ, HK, TW, MY, TH, MX, AR, PE, AE, BG, AU, JP, ID, RS, CO, SG, BE.", "openfda": { "k_number": [ "K123813", "K133853", "K251103", "K051679", "K143701", "K123621", "K071554", "K073473", "K223766", "K230453", "K112050", "K141618", "K071660", "K261849", "K030524", "K153094", "K161125", "K101138", "K080891", "K160514", "K081626", "K081625", "K152829", "K252945", "K241540", "K070242", "K031346", "K132133", "K233270", "K121273", "K153617", "K092064", "K170263", "K251211", "K091352", "K081808", "K233948", "K223077", "K071234", "K041727", "K163478", "K172258", "K250955", "K242893", "K191175", "K042593", "K033650", "K200195", "K173618", "K092596", "K041134", "K173284", "K050995", "K250913", "K200812", "K120697", "K201775", "K240050", "K213593", "K140318", "K051337", "K113008", "K103260", "K251231", "K200410", "K193183", "K122878", "K261696", "K160583", "K111043", "K173820", "K253399", "K260816", "K212959", "K203726", "K170992", "K103255", "K222568", "K173063", "K150442" ], "registration_number": [ "3032109181", "9680794", "2518586", "3000126629", "1225687", "9673241", "3032807464", "9617277", "3009537152", "3023245", "3033527241", "2532090", "3009490946", "3009888344", "3010952312", "3019807891", "3008452825", "3008497357", "2024311", "3013944123", "2182269", "3019216", "1058584", "3008496839", "9681834", "3016678045", "9612283", "3035950510", "3015859709", "2032350", "3017461134", "2939520", "2134265", "3033527283", "3015551113", "9710602", "3017894900", "3009196578", "3015276088", "3014272734", "3013300026", "3016076141", "3008516548", "3005877899", "2030624", "3009077524", "3006985147", "3017060084", "3010041511", "3013844297", "2124215", "3011416394", "3007695959", "3008363989", "3003898360", "3005334138", "3012833053", "3031397684", "3010273872", "3033508292", "3003493679", "3038966633", "2030404", "1928237", "3012127758", "2011171", "3012179728", "3002619337", "3010398867", "8010026", "1721686", "3010220595", "3038718997", "3015542130", "2029275", "3007738736", "3011137372", "2134243", "3013734919", "1061124", "8043817", "3005403518", "3013162291", "3005467144", "2090040", "9680579", "3009350690", "2531814", "9610482", "3005012805", "3012198618", "3003594449", "1000601180", "3011610434", "2032112", "3013403214", "3014745562", "3011763071", "3016171942", "3010432890" ], "fei_number": [ "3032109181", "1000512168", "2518586", "3000126629", "3001726808", "3003513129", "3032807464", "3009537152", "3023245", "3033527241", "3009490946", "3009888344", "3010952312", "3005747797", "3019807891", "3008452825", "3008497357", "3001451463", "3013944123", "2024311", "2182269", "1000519796", "3019216", "3008496839", "3016678045", "3003094575", "3003737899", "3035950510", "3002808529", "3015859709", "3017461134", "2939520", "3002615969", "3033527283", "3015551113", "2828", "1000219637", "3017894900", "3009196578", "3015276088", "3003408255", "3014272734", "3013300026", "3016076141", "3008516548", "3005877899", "1000203464", "3009077524", "3003309342", "3006985147", "3017060084", "3010041511", "3013844297", "3003076831", "2124215", "3011416394", "3002808457", "3003190524", "3007695959", "3008363989", "3003898360", "3005334138", "3012833053", "3031397684", "3010273872", "3033508292", "3003493679", "3003248396", "3038966633", "1928237", "3012127758", "2011171", "1000306431", "3012179728", "3002619337", "3000206435", "3010398867", "1721686", "3010220595", "3038718997", "3015542130", "3002095335", "3007738736", "3013734919", "3005403518", "3013162291", "3005467144", "3002626007", "3009350690", "3005012805", "3012198618", "3003594449", "1000601180", "3011610434", "3013403214", "3014745562", "3011763071", "3016171942", "3010432890", "3002808327" ], "device_name": "Catheter, Ultrasound, Intravascular", "medical_specialty_description": "Cardiovascular", "regulation_number": "870.1200", "device_class": "2" } } ] }
