See package insert for complete indications, contraindications, warnings and instructions for use.
INDICAtIONS FOr USE:Target Coils are intended to endovascularly obstruct or occlude blood flow in vascular abnormalities of the neurovascular and peripheral vessels.
Target Coils are indicated for endovascular embolization of:• Intracranial aneurysms.
• Other neurovascular abnormalities such as arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous fistulae.
• Arterial and venous embolizations in the peripheral vasculature.
CONtrAINDICAtIONS:None known.
pOtENtIAl ADvErSE EvENtS:Potential complications include, but are not limited to: Aneurysm perforation and rupture, arrhythmia, death, edema, embolus, headache, hemorrhage, infection, ischemia, neurological/intracranial sequelae, post-embolization syndrome (fever, increased white blood cell count, discomfort), TIA/stroke, vasospasm, vessel occlusion or closure, vessel perforation, dissection, trauma or damage, vessel rupture, vessel thrombosis and other procedural complications including but not limited to anesthetic and contrast media risks, hypotension, hypertension and access site complications. Please be aware that potential adverse effects may arise even with the proper use of medical devices. Accordingly, this device should only be used by persons qualified in the procedures for which it is indicated.
Please notify your Boston Scientific representative immediately if a device malfunctions or patient complication or injury is experienced or suspected associated with the use of this device. Please make every attempt to retain any suspect device, its associated components and their packaging for return to Boston Scientific.
wArNINGS:• Contents supplied STERILE using an ethylene oxide (EO) process. Do not use
if sterile barrier is damaged. If damage is found, call your Boston Scientific representative.
• For single use only. Do not reuse, reprocess or resterilize. Reuse, reprocessing or resterilization may compromise the structural integrity of the device and/or lead to device failure which, in turn, may result in patient injury, illness, or death. Reuse, reprocessing, or resterilization may also create a risk of contamination of the device and/or cause patient infection or cross-infection, including, but not limited to, the transmission of infectious disease(s) from one patient to another. Contamination of the device may lead to injury, illness or death of the patient.
• After use, dispose of product and packaging in accordance with hospital, administrative and/or local government policy.
• This device should only be used by physicians who have received appropriate training in interventional neuroradiology or interventional radiology and preclinical training on the use of this device as established by Boston Scientific.
• Patients with hypersensitivity to 316LVM stainless steel may suffer an allergic reaction to this implant.
• MR temperature testing was not conducted in peripheral vasculature, arteriovenous malformations or fistulae models.
• The safety and performance characteristics of the Target Detachable Coil System (Target Coils, InZone™ Detachment Systems, delivery systems and accessories) have not been demonstrated with other manufacturer’s devices (whether coils, coil delivery devices, coil detachment systems, catheters, guidewires and/or other accessories). Due to the potential incompatibility of non Boston Scientific devices with the Target Coil System, the use of other manufacturer’s device(s) with the Target Coil System is not recommended.
• To reduce risk of coil migration, the diameter of the first and second coil should never be less than the width of the ostium.
• In order to achieve optimal performance of the Target Detachable Coil System and to reduce the risk of thromboembolic complications, it is critical that a continuous infusion of appropriate flush solution be maintained between a) the femoral sheath and guiding catheter, b) the 2-tip microcatheter and guiding catheters and c) the 2-tip microcatheter and Boston Scientific guidewire and delivery wire. Continuous flush also reduces the potential for thrombus formation on, and crystallization of
infusate around, the detachment zone of the Target Detachable Coil.
• Do not use the product after the “Use By” date specified on the package.
• Reuse of the flush port/dispenser coil or use with any coil other than the original coil may result in contamination of or damage to, the coil.
• Damaged delivery wires may cause detachment failures, vessel injury or unpredictable distal tip response during coil deployment. If a delivery wire is damaged at any point during the procedure, do not attempt to straighten or otherwise repair it. Do not proceed with deployment or detachment. Remove the entire coil and replace with undamaged product.
• Utilization of damaged coils may affect coil delivery to, and stability inside, the vessel or aneurysm, possibly resulting in coil migration and/or stretching.
• The fluoro-saver marker is designed for use with a Rotating Hemostatic Valve (RHV). If used without an RHV, the distal end of the coil may be beyond the alignment marker when the fluoro-saver marker reaches the microcatheter hub.
• If the fluoro-saver marker is not visible, do not advance the coil without fluoroscopy.
• Do not rotate delivery wire during or after delivery of the coil. Rotating the Target Coil delivery wire may result in a stretched coil or premature detachment of the coil from the delivery wire, which could result in coil migration.
• Verify there is no coil loop protrusion into the parent vessel after coil placement and prior to coil detachment. Coil loop protrusion after coil placement may result in thromboembolic events if the coil is detached.
• Verify there is no movement of the coil after coil placement and prior to coil detachment. Movement of the coil after coil placement may indicate that the coil could migrate once it is detached.
• Failure to properly close the RHV compression fitting over the delivery wire before attaching the InZone Detachment System could result in coil movement, aneurysm rupture or vessel perforation.
• Verify repeatedly that the distal shaft of the catheter is not under stress before detaching the Target Detachable Coil. Axial compression or tension forces could be stored in the 2-tip microcatheter causing the tip to move during coil delivery. Microcatheter tip movement could cause the aneurysm or vessel to rupture.
• Advancing the delivery wire beyond the microcatheter tip once the coil has been detached involves risk of aneurysm or vessel perforation.
• The long term effect of this product on extravascular tissues has not been established so care should be taken to retain this device in the intravascular space.
CAUtIONS:• Federal Law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
• Besides the number of InZone Detachment System units needed to complete the case, there must be an extra InZone Detachment System unit as back up.
• Removing the delivery wire without grasping the introducer sheath may result in the delivery wire and detachable coil sliding out of the introducer sheath.
• Failure to remove the introducer sheath after inserting the delivery wire into the RHV of the microcatheter will interrupt normal infusion of flush solution and allow back flow of blood into the microcatheter.
• Some low level overhead light near or adjacent to the patient is required to visualize the fluoro-saver marker; monitor light alone will not allow sufficient visualization of the fluoro-saver marker.
• Advance and retract the Target Detachable Coil carefully and smoothly without excessive force. If unusual friction is noticed, slowly withdraw the Target Coil and examine for damage. If damage is present, remove and use a new Target Coil. If friction or resistance is still noted, carefully remove the Target Coil and microcatheter and examine the microcatheter for damage.
• If it is necessary to reposition the Target Coil, verify under fluoroscopy that the coil moves with a one-to-one motion. If the coil does not move with a one-to-one motion or movement is difficult, the coil may have stretched and could possibly migrate or break. Gently remove both the coil and microcatheter and replace with new devices.
• Increased detachment times may occur when:
- Other embolic agents are present. - Delivery wire and microcatheter markers are not properly aligned. - Thrombus is present on the coil detachment zone.
• Do not use detachment systems other than the InZone Detachment System.

InZone™ Detachment System
See package insert for complete indications, contraindications, warnings and instructions for use.
INDICAtIONS FOr USE:The InZone Detachment System is intended for use with all versions of Boston Scientific Detachable Coils in the embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other vascular malformations of the neuro and peripheral vasculature.
CONtrAINDICAtIONS:None known.
pOtENtIAl ADvErSE EvENtS:No adverse events are associated with the use of the InZone Detachment System as a stand alone device. Refer to Boston Scientific Detachable Coil Directions for Use for adverse events associated with the use of Boston Scientific detachable coils. Please be aware that potential adverse effects may arise even with the proper use of medical devices. Accordingly, this device should only be used by persons qualified in the procedures for which it is indicated.
Please notify your Boston Scientific representative immediately if a device malfunctions or patient complication or injury is experienced or suspected associated with the use of this device. Please make every attempt to retain any suspect device, its associated components and their packaging for return to Boston Scientific.
wArNINGS:• Contents supplied STERILE using an ethylene oxide (EO) process. Do not use
if sterile barrier is damaged. If damage is found, call your Boston Scientific representative.
• For single use only. Do not reuse, reprocess or resterilize. Reuse, reprocessing, or resterilization may compromise the structural integrity of the device and/or lead to device failure which, in turn, may result in patient injury, illness or death. Reuse, reprocessing or resterilization may also create a risk of contamination of the device and/or cause patient infection or cross-infection, including, but not limited to, the transmission of infectious disease(s) from one patient to another. Contamination of the device may lead to injury, illness or death of the patient.
• This device should only be used by physicians who have received appropriate training in interventional neuroradiology or interventional radiology and preclinical training on the use of this device as established by Boston Scientific.
• The InZone Detachment System can only be used with Boston Scientific detachable coils (Target™ Detachable Coil, GDC® Detachable Coil and Matrix2® Detachable Coil) and the IZDS™ Connecting Cable. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE any components or devices from other manufacturers or injury to the patient or user could result.
• Advancing the coil delivery wire beyond the microcatheter tip once the coil has detached may increase the risk of aneurysm or vessel rupture.
• Sliding the detachment system with too much force or failing to tighten the microcatheter RHV prior to detachment may cause the delivery wire to kink or result in displacement of the coil and/or microcatheter tip in the vessel, which could lead to failed detachment, suboptimal coil position post-detachment, vessel perforation, aneurysm perforation, pseudoaneurysm and aneurysm rupture. Do not advance the InZone Detachment System over the coil delivery wire against significant resistance.
• After use, the InZone Detachment System (excluding packaging) should be handled and processed as biohazardous material. After use, dispose of the InZone Detachment System unit in accordance with hospital, administrative and/or local government policy for the handling, processing and disposal of biohazardous materials. Dispose of packaging, delivery wires, introducer sheaths, IZDS Connecting Cable (UPN M00345110250, if applicable) and needle (if applicable) in accordance with hospital, administrative and/or local government policy.
CAUtIONS:• Federal Law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
• Prior to beginning a procedure, confirm that there are enough detachment systems on the shelf to complete the anticipated number of detachments required. In addition, one extra InZone Detachment System is required as backup for all procedures. Verify that the InZone Detachment Systems to be used are within their indicated shelf life.
• One extra IZDS Connecting Cable (UPN M00345110250) and sterile 20- or 22-gauge uncoated stainless steel hypodermic needle are required as backup for all procedures using the InZone Detachment System to detach GDC or Matrix2 Detachable Coils. Verify that the cables and needles to be used are within their indicated shelf life.
• While it is essential to sufficiently tighten the microcatheter RHV around the coil delivery wire prior to using the InZone Detachment System, over-tightening the RHV could cause the delivery wire to kink.
• Batteries are pre-loaded into the InZone Detachment System. Do not attempt to replace batteries or open the enclosure.
• Increased detachment times may occur when:
• Other embolic agents are present.
• Delivery wire and microcatheter markers are not properly aligned.
• Thrombus is present on the coil detachment zone.
• The IZDS Connecting Cable has been resterilized. The IZDS Connecting Cable is supplied for one use only and should be discarded after each procedure (Only applicable when detaching GDC or Matrix2 Detachable Coils).
• If device is set down, take care to gently place it in a stable position so that it does not slide off of the delivery wire during detachment. If device is held, take care to gently hold it in a stable position so that it does not slide off of the delivery wire during detachment.
• In some ECG equipment, perturbations may be observed immediately before illumination of the DETACHMENT DETECTION indicator on the InZone Detachment System.
• Because coils are not always detached following completion of a cycle, ALWAYS verify under fluoroscopy that the coil has detached by slowly pulling back on the delivery wire while monitoring the fluoro image to make sure there is no movement of the coil. In the unlikely event the coil moves (indicating it is still attached to the delivery wire), check and adjust the flush system, check and adjust the grounding setup (only applicable when detaching GDC or Matrix2 Detachable Coils), realign the delivery wire with the microcatheter, tighten the RHV and repeat the detachment procedure.
• Needle must not be coated.
• If the patient experiences pain at the site of the needle, or if detachment times are increasing, replace the needle with a new needle at a new insertion site.
• The IZDS Connecting Cable is intended for single patient use only. Do not resterilize and/or reuse. Resterilization could corrode the connecting cable, resulting in increased detachment times.
• Disconnection or poor connection of any part of the grounding setup after the detachment system indicates SYSTEM READY may result in an inability to detach GDC or Matrix2 Detachable Coils.
• The safety and performance characteristics of the InZone Detachment System when used with another manufacturer’s devices (whether coils, coil delivery devices, catheters, guidewires and/or other accessories), have NOT been established. Due to the potential incompatibility of non-Boston Scientific components with the InZone Detachment System, the use of another manufacturer’s device(s) with the InZone Detachment System is not recommended.
