VETERINARY ENDOSCOPY – SMALL ANIMALS – 4th EDITION 2/2012 Important Notes: Endoscopes and accessories contained in this catalog have been designed in part with the cooperation of physicians and are manufactured by the KARL STORZ group. If subcontractors are hired to manufacture individual components, these are made according to proprietary KARL STORZ plans or drawings. Furthermore, these products are subject to strict quality and control guidelines of the KARL STORZ group. Both contractual and general legal provisions prohibit subcontractors from supplying components manufactured by order of KARL STORZ to competitors. Any assumptions that competitors’ endoscopes and accessories are acquired from the same suppliers as the KARL STORZ products are not correct. Moreover, endoscopes and instruments provided by competitors are not manufactured according to the design specifications of KARL STORZ. This means it cannot be assumed that these endoscopes and accessories – even if they look identical on the outside – are constructed in the same manner and have been tested according to the same criteria. Standardized Design and Labeling KARL STORZ participates both in national and international bodies involved in the development of standards for endoscopes and endoscopic accessories. Standardized design and development therefore have long been implemented consistently by KARL STORZ. The user can rest assured that all products by the KARL STORZ group have been designed and constructed not only in compliance with strict internal quality guidelines, but also with international standards. All data relevant for safe use, such as viewing direction, sizes and diameters, or notes regarding sterilization of telescopes, are applied to the instruments, have been formulated according to international standards, and therefore provide reliable information. As we constantly seek to improve and modify our products, we reserve the right to make changes in design that vary from catalog descriptions. Original or Counterfeit KARL STORZ products are name brand articles renowned around the world and represent the state of the art in important areas of healthcare. A large number of “copy cat” products are currently being offered in many markets. These products are designed intentionally to resemble KARL STORZ products and use marketing strategies that at least point out their compatibility with KARL STORZ products. These products are by no means genuine products, since genuine KARL STORZ products are sold worldwide exclusively under the name of KARL STORZ, which appears on the packaging and the product. In the absence of such labeling, the product is not from KARL STORZ. KARL STORZ, therefore, is unable to ensure that such products are actually compatible with genuine KARL STORZ products or can be used with them without injury to the patient. © All pictures, photos and product descriptions are the intellectual property of KARL STORZ SE & Co.

The patient is seen as an outpatient for a bilateral mammogram. CPT Code: 77055-50 Note that the description for code 77055 is for a unilateral (one side) mammogram. 77056 is the correct code for a bilateral mammogram. Use of modifier -50 for bilateral is not appropriate when CPT code descriptions differentiate between unilateral and bilateral. 2. Physician performs a closed manipulation of a medial malleolus fracture—left ankle. CPT Code: 27766-LT The code represents an open treatment of the fracture, but the physician performed a closed manipulation. Correct code: 27762-LT 3. Surgeon performs a cystourethroscopy with dilation of a urethral stricture. CPT Code: 52341 The documentation states that it was a urethral stricture, but the CPT code identifies treatment of ureteral stricture. Correct code: 52281 4. The operative report states that the physician performed Strabismus surgery, requiring resection of the medial rectus muscle. CPT Code: 67314 The CPT code selection is for resection of one vertical muscle, but the medial rectus muscle is horizontal. Correct code: 67311 5. The chiropractor documents that he performed osteopathic manipulation on the neck and back (lumbar/thoracic). CPT Code: 98925 Note in the paragraph before code 98925, the body regions are identified. The neck would be the cervical region; the thoracic and lumbar regions are identified separately. Therefore, three body regions are identified.

It brings information on advantages and limita- tions in their use, compares different devices, and summarizes benefits in various clinical settings. Supraglottic airway devices may be used as a conduit for fiberscope-guided tracheal intubation mainly as a rescue plan in the scenario of difficult or failed laryngoscopy. Some of these devices offer the possibility of direct endotracheal tube placement. Hybrid devices combine the features of two different intubating tools.

  • 8200 • Pipelle® Endometrial Suction Curette Directions for Use (English)
    7. For histologic assessment of the specimen, the tip of the sheath should ® now be sectioned just proximal to its distal curette opening (Figure 4). 8200 • Pipelle Endometrial Suction Curette The piston should then be advanced within the sheath to express the specimen from the sectioned sheath into an appropriate transport medium Directions for Use (English) (Figure 5). Figure 4 Figure 5 DESCRIPTION The Pipelle® is a single-use, sterile, disposable, suction curette for obtaining a histologic biopsy of the uterine mucosal lining or sample extraction of uterine menstrual content for microscopic examination or culturing. The device consists of a clear, flexible, polypropylene sheath that is 26.5 cm (overall) 23.5 cm (effective) length with a 3.1 mm OD (Outside Diameter) and a 2.6 mm ID (Internal Diameter). The sheath is marked with colored, graduated markings from 4 cm to 10 cm, distance from the distal tip of the sheath to indicate the depth of insertion of the sheath into the uterus during use (see diagram below). 8. For bacterial culturing of the specimen, leave the piston in its fully withdrawn position and do not section the sheath at its distal curette A B 4 cm 8 cm C D EF opening. Immediately send the entire, intact instrument with the specimen 7 cm 10 cm captured within it to the laboratory with instructions to section the distal tip at a point at least 2 mm proximal to the distal curette opening and then to express the sample by use of the piston onto the appropriate culturing medium.
