Barrigel™ rectal spacer is intended to temporarily position the anterior rectal wall away from the prostate during radiotherapy for prostate cancer and, in creating this space, it is the intent of Barrigel rectal spacer to reduce the radiation dose delivered to the anterior rectum. Barrigel rectal spacer is composed of biodegradable material and maintains space for the entire course of prostate radiotherapy treatment and is intended to be absorbed by the patient’s body over time. Barrigel rectal spacer should only be administered by qualified and properly trained physicians with

experience in ultrasound guidance and injection techniques in the urogenital/pelvic area. As with any medical treatment, there are some risks involved with the use of Barrigel rectal spacer. Potential complications associated with the use of Barrigel rectal spacer include, but are not limited to: pain associated with Barrigel rectal spacer injection; needle penetration of the bladder, prostate, rectal wall, rectum, or urethra; injection of Barrigel rectal spacer into the bladder, prostate, rectal wall, rectum, urethra, or intravascularly; local inflammatory reactions; infection; urinary retention; rectal mucosal damage, ulcers, necrosis; bleeding; constipation; and rectal urgency. More information on indications, contraindications, warnings and instructions for use can be found in the Instructions For Use at www.barrigel.com. Individual results may vary.

CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
