USE OF THE REPOSITIONING SHEATH AND PEEL-AWAY INTRODUCER
To prevent failure of the peel-away introducer, remove the peel-away introducer
prior to transport when activated clotting time (ACT) is less than 150 seconds.
Be sure that the stopcock on the peel-away introducer or repositioning sheath is
always kept in the closed position. Significant bleed back can result if the stopcock
is open.
1.
Flush the sidearm of the repositioning sheath located on the catheter shaft.
2.
Remove the peel-away introducer completely from the artery
over the
catheter shaft to prevent trauma and significant bleeding and apply manual pressure
above the puncture site.
3.
Grasp the two “wings” and bend back until the valve assembly comes apart. Continue
to peel the two wings until the introducer is completely separated from the catheter
shaft (see Figure 5.41).
Completely remove
the peel-away introducer
from the artery
before peeling the wings.
Figure 5.41 Removing the Peel-Away Introducer (14 Fr Introducer shown)
Maintaining ACT
After insertion of the catheter
(and until explant), ACT
should be maintained at 160
to 180 seconds.

Addition of Heparin to
the Purge Solution
As soon as practical after
catheter placement, change
the purge fluid to include
heparin. The recommended
heparin concentration is
50 IU/mL in 20% dextrose
solution. (Follow the Change
Purge Fluid procedure
described later in this section
to change the purge fluid.)
