Connect the clear hooded luer connector on the tubing set to the male clear gas port on the regulator. Connect the blue male luer connector on the tubing set to the female luer blue vent port on the regulator.  Position DUPLOSPRAY System so the foot switch is placed next to the surgeon’s foot at time of application.  While depressing the foot switch, adjust the gas flow to 1.0-2.0 litres per minute. Check the gas flow by noting the height of the ball in the gas gauge while stepping on foot switch.  Hand applicator over to scrub nurse using sterile technique.  Instructions for SCRUB NURSE ASSEMBLE APPLICATOR 1  2  Use the tip alignment tool to thread a sterile replaceable tip onto the applicator until seated against the end of the applicator shaft. Retain the tip alignment tool, which holds a second replaceable tip provided for use if the first tip becomes occluded.  3  Push the male syringe set luers all the way into the female luer cones on the applicator.  Match the single blue dot on the syringe’s calibrated side with the blue dot on the applicator.  4  Push the snap lock all the way down to securely fasten the applicator to the syringe luers.  5  Connect the red male luer connector on the tubing set to the female luer connector on the trocar vent valve.  Connect the clear female luer connector on the tubing set to the male luer gas port on the applicator.  If multiple syringes are required in the procedure, inconsistent orientation my cause the dual-chamber to clog.  Ensure vent valve is fully open.  Instructions for SURGEON DISPENSE 1  2  Check the gas flow meter on Duplospray before inserting applicator into trocar. Maximum flow rate = 2.0L/min; recommended spray distance 3cm (range 2-5cm).  3  Press the foot switch of the DUPLOSPRAY MIS Regulator to start the gas flow prior to applying TISSEEL [Fibrin Sealant].  While activating the foot switch, dispense TISSEEL into the applicator by depressing syringe plungers using VERY SLOW STEADY PRESSURE. To stop spray delivery, release pressure on syringe plungers while maintaining gas flow by holding foot switch down for 3-5 seconds after applying TISSEEL to clear the applicator’s tip.  Instructions for SCRUB NURSE  NOTE: Spray application precaution: any application of pressurized gas may be associated with a potential risk of air embolism, tissue rupture or gas entrapment with compression, which may be lifethreatening. Be sure to take appropriate measures to address these risks by observing the recommended minimum spraying distance and the maximum pressure provided in the appropriate spray set instructions for use, or the TISSEEL PI.  NOTE: If using DUPLOSPRAY 360 Degree, angle the flexible tip at the end of the applicator by grasping and turning with an endoscopic grasper.  TROUBLESHOOTING – OCCLUDED TIP  RELEASE APPLICATOR 1  2  1  2  3  PUSH HERE TO RELEASE  Press the release button on the back of the snap lock.  Detach applicator from syringe. Dispose as biohazard waste.  If the replaceable tip becomes occluded during use, use the tip alignment tool to remove the occluded tip by unscrewing it in a counterclockwise motion.  Using a sterile sponge, wipe any clotted material or fluid from the exposed metal tube ends.  Use the opposite chamber of the tip alignment tool to install a new tip by screwing it in a clockwise motion. Ensure replacement tip is secured firmly to prevent accidental tip detachment.
