Anthogyr Surgical Ratchet Wrench Instructions

DESCRIPTION OF SYMBOLS USED

AREA OF APPLICATION

The prosthetic wrench (MD) is intended for dental applications in the fields of surgery and implant prosthetics. The INCC ratchet wrench is used for the rotation of tools with a “wrench” type connection and to apply the torques required for the execution of clinical procedures. Any form of incorrect use is prohibited and may be dangerous.
For this MD, we applied Community Directive 93/42/CEE (amended 2007/47), transposed by the French regulations on medical equipment (Official Bulletin – L169 ­ July 12, 1993).
The MD must be used by someone with experience of dental medicine, especially in implantology and in prosthesis on implants, for the application described and in compliance with the provisions in effect in relation to the prevention of accidents at work, protection of employment and the instructions for use.
In accordance with these provisions, the user must:

• ****only use working instruments without defects,
• observe the principle of correct use,
• protect themselves and the patient or third party against any danger
• prevent any contamination by the product.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Before use, check that the MD is not damaged and that no part is missing.
After insertion of a rotary instrument, check that it is correctly held by a slight rotary movement. Do not handle the rotary instrument during operation. Before using the prosthetic dynamometrical wrench, we strongly advise to test it outside of the patient’s mouth.
In the event of malfunction or damage, immediately stop using the instrument and inform your approved distributor or the manufacturer.
In the event of any questions about the approved distributor or the manufacturer.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

**** The INCC ratchet wrench is for use with Anthogyr instruments only.

USING THE MD

The MD is supplied non-sterile. Before first using it, this MD must be decontaminated and sterilized (see § « Hygiene and maintenance”).
Before use, check that the MD is not damaged or that no part is missing.
5.1. Connecting / Disconnecting the instrument:
It is preferable to wear protective gloves for all tool handling. Check the condition of the rotary instruments used and handle them cautiously and carefully.
5.2. Inserting and locking the rotary instrument :

• Insert the rotary instrument and turn it slightly until hearing a clicking sound and the ratchet takes place in the groove.

• Check that the rotary instrument is correctly held with a slight axial movement each time the tool is changed.

5.3. Removing the rotary instrument:
Remove the instrument by pulling it out.
MD lifecycle: If used in a proper manner, all MD parts have a two-year lifecycle (corresponding to 250 sterilization cycles). However, these indications are not a warranty because wear may appear prematurely, depending on how the MD is maintained (cleaning and sterilization).

HYGIENE AND MAINTENANCE

Sterilization of medical devices must be done by properly trained and protected staff, in compliance with current regulations. The sterilization protocol must be appropriate to the infectious risk. Wear appropriate protective clothing: risk of infection and injury. Only use products for the maintenance of medico-surgical equipment compatible with stainless steel (no chlorinated content). Forbid antiseptics that are intended for use on skin and mucous. Forbid products containing aldehyde, alcohol or other products are likely to bind proteins.
For each product used: refer to the manufacturer’s instructions. Comply with the concentrations, exposure durations, and life span of products. Do not mix the products and follow the instructions for their disposal.
After patient care, the MD should be processed within the next two hours.
