Bard® Breast Biopsy Markers

INDICATIONS FOR USE: The UltraCor® 17G Tissue Marker is indicated for use to radiographically mark breast tissue during a percutaneous breast biopsy procedure. The SenoMark® UltraCor® Breast
Tissue Marker is intended to radiographically and sonographically mark breast tissue during a percutaneous breast biopsy procedure. The UltraCor® Twirl® Breast Tissue Marker is intended for use to attach
to soft breast tissue, including axillary lymph nodes, to radiographically mark the location of the biopsy procedure. CONTRAINDICATIONS: The UltraCor® 17G, SenoMark® UltraCor® and UltraCor®
Twirl® Breast Tissue Markers are not intended for use except as indicated. Patients with a known hypersensitivity to the materials listed in the device description may suffer an allergic reaction to this implant.
If there is a known allergy to nickel, use of the UltraCor® Twirl® Breast Tissue Marker is not advised. WARNINGS: 1. Use caution when placing near a breast implant to avoid puncture of the implant capsule.
2. Do not use in the presence of infection. 3. As with any foreign object implanted into the body, potential adverse reactions are possible. It is the responsibility of the physician to evaluate the risk/benefit
prior to the use of this device. 4. This device has been designed for single use only. Reusing this medical device bears the risk of cross-patient contamination as medical devices – particularly those with long
and small lumina, joints, and/or crevices between components – are difficult or impossible to clean once body fluids or tissues with potential pyrogenic or microbial contamination have had contact with the
medical device for an indeterminable period of time. The residue of biological material can promote the contamination of the device with pyrogens or microorganisms which may lead to infectious
complications. 5. Do not resterilize. After resterilization, the sterility of the product is not guaranteed because of an indeterminable degree of potential pyrogenic or microbial contamination which may lead
to infectious complications. Cleaning, reprocessing and/or resterilization of the present medical device increases the probability that the device will malfunction due to potential adverse effects on components
that are influenced by thermal and/or mechanical changes. 6. The UltraCor® 17G and UltraCor® Twirl® Breast Tissue Markers are not recommended for use in patients with breast implants. PRECAUTIONS:
1. Store in a cool dry place, at temperatures below 25ºC (77ºF). 2. The UltraCor® 17G, SenoMark® UltraCor® and UltraCor® Twirl® Breast Tissue Markers should only be used by a physician who is trained
in percutaneus breast biopsy procedures and completely familiar with the indications, contraindications, limitations and typical findings and possible side effects of breast tissue marker placement. 3. Do not
use if needle is bent and/or tip is damaged. 4. Use caution when handling the device to prevent premature deployment of the breast tissue marker. Do not use The UltraCor® 17G, SenoMark® UltraCor®
and UltraCor® Twirl® Breast Tissue Markers if the sterile barrier has been previously opened or if the package is damaged. 5. After use, the UltraCor® 17G, SenoMark® UltraCor® and UltraCor® Twirl®
Breast Tissue Markers may be potential biohazards. Handle and dispose of in accordance with acceptable medical practice and applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations. 6. For the UltraCor®
17G Tissue Marker, ensure the coil is completely dispensed. For the SenoMark® UltraCor® Breast Tissue Marker, ensure that all pads are dispensed. 7. Published studies with comparably sized 316L stainless
steel biopsy markers to the UltraCor® 17G Tissue Marker have shown no marker movement and no significant marker heating when tested in an MRI system with a 1.5T field strength. POTENTIAL
COMPLICATIONS: Complications may occur at any time during or after the procedure. Potential complications of breast tissue marker placement may include, but are not limited to: hematoma, hemorrhage,
infection, allergic reaction, marker migration, misdiagnosis, lymphedema, adjacent tissue injury and pain. Please consult product labels and package inserts for indications, contraindications, hazards,
warnings, cautions and instructions for use.
