Overinflation of the dissection balloon may cause the balloon to rupture. Do not exceed 40 pumps. Verify mechanical and electrical compatibility of devices from different manufacturers prior to using them together in a procedure. Care must be exercised not to tunnel too deeply. Avoid forcing the balloon in a manner that may cause trauma to nearby organs and structures.
