Pre-implant cavography is required :
• To confirm the patency and visualize the anatomy of the vena cava,
• To mark the level of the renal veins,
• To locate the highest level of any thrombus which may be present,
• To determine the desired level for filter deployment and to mark the
position with respect to the vertebral bodies,
• To confirm that the diameter of the vena cava (AP projection) at the site
where the filter is to be deployed is less than or equal to the maximum autho-
rized diameter.
A) Preparation of the implantation accessories
1. The filter is pre-loaded into its cartridge.
Load the cartridge into the cradle as
shown on the photo.
Warning 1 :
guarantee complete insertion.
Warning 2 :
must read "FEMORAL".
2. Immerse the assembly in a container of heparinized saline.
Note :
This precaution reduces the possibility of thrombus formation around the
filter during its movement through the introducer sheath.
