Usage

Before use, inspect the outer sterile pack; do not use if the packaging is torn, punctured, wet or otherwise compromised.
Verify product code, expiry date and integrity of the sterile seal according to local protocols.
Open the pack using aseptic technique to present the contents on a sterile field.
Using appropriate sterile gloves and aseptic technique, remove the Halsey needle holder, iris scissors and forceps as required.
Use the Halsey needle holder to grasp and drive extremely fine sutures as per standard clinical technique.
Use the iris stitch scissors for precise cutting of sutures and fine materials.
Use toothed and non-toothed iris forceps to handle tissue and assist accurate suture placement, selecting the instrument appropriate to the tissue type.
After completing the procedure, discard all instruments and packaging as clinical waste in accordance with local infection prevention and waste management policies.
Do not clean, disinfect, re-sterilise or reuse any component; the pack and all instruments are strictly single use.

Contraindications

Do not use if the sterile barrier (packaging) is damaged, open or shows evidence of compromised sterility.
Do not reuse or reprocess any component of the pack; reuse may increase infection risk and lead to instrument damage or malfunction.
Not intended for procedures requiring heavy-duty instruments or suturing of large/deep structures beyond the design of fine suture instruments.
Do not use in patients or procedures where the use of metal instruments of this type is clinically contraindicated.
Do not use beyond the stated expiry date on the packaging.
Do not use if any instrument appears bent, corroded, misaligned, blunt or otherwise defective upon visual inspection.

Adverse Effects

Potential tissue trauma, bruising or tearing if instruments are used with excessive force or incorrect technique.
Insufficient haemostasis or poor suture control if instruments are used outside their intended application or on unsuitable tissues.
Increased risk of infection if sterility is compromised or if aseptic technique is not followed.
Possible user injury (e.g. needle stick, cuts or pinch injuries) if safe sharps and instrument handling procedures are not observed.
Rare risk of mechanical failure (e.g. joint loosening or misalignment) leading to reduced performance or loss of grip during use.

Storage Conditions

Store in a clean, dry environment at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and sources of excessive heat or moisture.
Keep in original packaging until immediately before use to maintain sterility.
Avoid crushing, bending or stacking heavy items on top of packs so as not to damage the sterile barrier system.
Follow any additional storage recommendations provided on the product packaging or by the manufacturer.
Ensure appropriate stock rotation to use older stock before newer stock, observing expiry dates.
