COMPATIBLE LASER SYSTEMS AND SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS
OmniGuide fibers are only intended to be used with OmniGuide handpieces and lasers. Please see the enclosed fiber compatibility chart for OmniGuide fiber/handpiece
compatibility. Please note that this chart may have changed between when you purchased from OmniGuide, and when you use your fiber or handpiece. If there is any discrepancy,
the most up-to-date version of the fiber compatibility chart can be found at omniguidesurgical.com/fibercompatibility.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
See laser system operating manual for detailed instructions, maintenance, and
additional warnings and precautions.
For sterile cases, use of a Gas Filter Unit (GFU) is required. See GFU instructions for
details.
Inspect fiber packaging. Do not use if package is damaged or opened.
Y
Note: See product packaging for expiration date.
1. Use sterile technique to open the fiber package.
Handle the fiber with care. Do not bend it excessively (radius <2 cm) to avoid damage and
Y
increased possibility of failure during use
2. Insert the fiber into a compatible surgical instrument
Note: See surgical instrument instructions for use for detailed instructions, additional warnings
and precautions.
3. Attach the fiber connector to the laser adapter. Ensure fiber connector is securely locked to the
adapter. Verify gas is flowing from the fiber tip.
