care in design, component selection, manufacture, and testing prior to sale, stents may be
easily damaged before, during, or after insertion by improper handling, crimping or other
intervening acts. Metal stents placed where there are extrinsic forces of compression, i.e.
right ventricular outflow tract, are especially prone to fatigue fracture and embolization and
should be avoided.
Stents and accessories are sold in an 'as is' condition. The entire risk as to the quality and
performance of the stent is with the buyer. NuMED disclaims all warranties, expressed or
implied, with respect to catheters and accessories, including but not limited to, any implied
warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. NuMED shall not be liable to
any person for any medical expenses or any direct or consequential damages resulting from
the use of any catheter or accessory or caused by any defect, failure, or malfunction of any
catheter or accessory, whether a claim for such damages is based upon warranty, contract,
tort, or otherwise. No person has any authority to bind NuMED to any representation or
warranty with respect to catheters and accessories.
