Caution: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by, or on the order of, a physician. The CSI Orbital Atherectomy System is a percutaneous orbital
atherectomy system indicated for use as therapy in patients with occlusive atherosclerotic disease in peripheral arteries and stenotic material from artificial
arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. Contraindications for the system include use in coronary arteries, bypass grafts, stents, or where thrombus or dissections
are present. Although the incidence of adverse events is rare, potential events that can occur with atherectomy include: pain, hypotension, CVA/TIA, death,
dissection, perforation, distal embolization, thrombus formation, hematuria, abrupt or acute vessel closure, or arterial spasm.
