Olympus StarTip V Light Therapy Device User Manual


 
An Essential Tool to achieve a New Level of Efficiency
in Biliary-Pancreatic Procedures. Designed to Enhance
the Revolutionary Exchange Capability of the V-System.
Specially coated to insure
smooth wire manipulation
To ensure smooth passage through tight strictures in the bile
duct, the distal 500mm from the tip is coated with a special
hydrophilic coating that provides exceptional lubricity.
The balance of the guidewire is coated with PTFE for
smoother exchange. These coatings allow the
guidewire to be manipulated easily

Ring-markers are visible from 50mm
to 120mm from the distal end to
help determine duct penetration.

Note:
This instrument meets the recognized standard for high
frequency electrosurgical leakage current - ANSI/AAMI HF-18(1993),
4.2.5.2 and 5.2.5.2 - when used with an Olympus sphinctetorome.
Removal of the guidewire is not necessary during sphincterotomy.
All Designs are Optimized to Assure Smooth,
Efficient Guidance of Devices to the Bile And Pancreatic Ducts
Two-step markers ensure visibility
in the endoscopic field of view
Two-step markers on the LinearGuideV make
it easy to confirm the movement and position
of the guidewire within the endoscopic field of view.
Two distal tip configurations to suit
different techniques and preferences
The LinearGuideV comes in two tip
configurations — straight and angulated.
The straight tip can be used for a variety of purposes,
while the angulated tip is best suited for passing a
stricture and for selective insertion.
Choose the tip that best suits your techniques
and preferences.
The LinearGuideV has been designed to provide
superior insertion capability, maximum endoscopic
visibility, and easy device exchange. When the
LinearGuideV’s spiral markings are visible from
the scope tip, the guidewire can be locked to
simplify device exchange.
Endoscopic visibility of the spiral-
markers indicates that
LinearGuideV may be locked in
the V-Groove.
