Description
Integra ™ Miltex ® Aspirating Syringes are used in conjunction with
a needle and a 1.8cc pre-filled anesthetic cartridge (not supplied by
Integra™ Miltex®). Aspirating syringes are available in Type CW
(Cook-Waite) and Type A (Astra). The syringes are reusable and are
provided clean and supplied non-sterile.
Indications
Integra ™ Miltex ® Aspirating Syringes are indicated to be used in
conjunction with anesthetic needles and anesthetic cartridges for
injection of anesthetic solutions in the oral cavity.
Contraindications
None known.
Warnings
• To avoid needle sticks, re-cap needle after injection
has been given.
• To avoid leakage during an injection, ensure that needle is
straight as it penetrates the cartridge diaphragm.
Precautions
• Syringes must be sterilized prior to use. See sterilization
instructions.
• Hubs cannot be removed. Do not attempt to remove hub
from syringe for sterilization or for any reason as damage to
the syringe will occur.
• Do not mix metals when sterilizing syringes. Sterilizing
syringes with other non chrome-plated brass
instruments may cause damage to syringes.
• Do not use cold sterilants, as they will react to the chrome
plating of the syringe.
• Keep needle capped while affixing or removing from syringe.
