MICROVENTION INC. — LIFEPEARL Drug Elutable Microspheres: 200 +/- 50 micrometers, REF: 8LP2S200; 400 +/- 50 micrometers, REF: 8LP2S400

⚠️ Drug Elutable Microspheres have a smaller actual average diameter that is not within specification, which may lead to inability to reach the desired treatment location (non-targeted embolization), additional procedure/treatment required, blockage other than target vessel, increased procedure time, incomplete embolization, and/or inability to treat the patient.

Is this relevant to me?
