DePuy Synthes Colibri II Instructions for Use
Introduction
General Information
Intended use The Colibri II is designed for the use in traumatology and orthopedic surgery of the skeleton, i.e. drilling, reaming or cutting bone. Safety instructions The surgeon has to evaluate if the machine is suitable for an application, based on power limitation of the machine, attachment and cutting tool regarding bone strength/anatomical situation as well as handling of the machine, attachment and cutting tool regarding bone size. In addition, the contraindications of the implant have to be respected. Please refer to the corresponding “Surgical Techniques” of the implant system used. The Colibri II is only to be used for surgery after careful consultation of the instructions for use. It is recommended that an alternative system is available to use during application, as technical problems can never be completely ruled out. The Colibri II is designed for use by physicians and trained medical personnel. DO NOT use any component if damage is apparent.
Efficiently working cutting tools are the basis for successful surgery. Therefore, it is mandatory to check used cutting tools after every use for wear and / or damage and to replace them if necessary. We recommend using new Synthes cutting tools for every surgery. Cutting tools must be cooled with irrigation liquid to prevent heat necrosis. The user of the product is responsible for proper use of the equipment during surgery. If the Colibri II is used in conjunction with an implant system, make sure to consult the corresponding “Surgical Techniques”. For important information regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), please refer to the chapter “Electromagnetic Compatibility” in this manual. The tool is classified as type BF against electrical shock and leakage current. The tool is suitable for use on patients in accordance with IEC 60601-1. This system requires regular maintenance service, at least once a year, in order to maintain its functionality. This service has to be performed by the original manufacturer or an authorized site.
DO NOT use any component if the packaging is damaged. DO NOT use this equipment in the presence of oxygen, nitrous oxide or a mixture consisting of flammable anesthetics and air. To ensure the proper operation of the tool, only use Synthes original accessories. Before the first and every subsequent use, power tools and their accessories / attachments have to run through the complete reprocessing procedure. Protective covers and foils must be fully removed before sterilization.
The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for damage resulting from neglected or unauthorized maintenance. Unusual Transmissible Pathogens: Surgical patients identified as at risk for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and related infections should be treated with single-use instruments. Dispose of the instruments used or suspected of use on a patient with CJD after surgery and/or follow the current national recommendations.
For the tool to function properly, Synthes recommends cleaning, disinfecting and servicing it after each use in accordance with the process recommended in the chapter “Care and Maintenance”. Compliance with these specifications can considerably extend the service life of the tool. Only use Synthes oil (519.970) to lubricate the tool.
