The KRONNER SIDE-KICK
A uterine manipulator Holder
for holding the RUMI uterine manipulator*
Instructions for use
* Model UMH 600, manufactured by CooperSurgical
United States Patent 8,485,484.B2

2
The Kronner SIDE-KICK uterine manipulator Holder firmly holds the Vcare and
other uterine manipulators* during laparoscopic surgery on female pelvic organs,
thus freeing staff for performing other tasks. The Side-Kick does not interfere with
re-positioning the uterus with the attached manipulator.
The Side-Kick is attached to either operating table rail behind the leg stirrup
attachment.
The manipulator is inserted into the patient using standard technique, then the
Side-Kick is joined to the manipulator.
With proper adapters the Side-Kick may be used with various other manipulators,
such as the RUMI and the Arch Koh.
Agas supply module, which can also be attached to the operating table rail,
transfers nitrogen or compressed air from the hospital wall or a portable tank to the
Side-Kick through two flexible lines. When the module switch is turned off the
Side-Kick joints are decompressed.
Pressing a foot pedal, that is connected to the gas supply module, releases all the
Side-Kick joints for position changes. When the foot pedal is released the joints
lock.
Abranched gas line connects the supply module to two luers of the arm assembly.
Asingle gas line joins the gas supply module to the main pivot.
Only the arm components and adapters are steam sterilized. The disposable gas
lines are supplied sterile.

Intended use:
The Kronner Side-Kick Uterine Manipulator Holder is intended to assist the
surgical staff in mounting, positioning and holding a uterine manipulator during
gynecological laparoscopic surgical procedures. It is intended for use by trained
operating room personnel in an operating room environment.
"Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.”

Indications for use:
The Kronner Side-Kick Uterine Manipulator Holder is intended to assist the surgical
staff in mounting, positioning and holding a uterine manipulator during gynecological
laparoscopic surgical procedures. It is intended for use by trained operating room
personnel in an operating room environment.
Contraindications:
1. Adapter unavailable for chosen manipulator
2. Table rail unreliable
3. Gas supply is unreliable or unavailable at required pressure
4. Intended surgery does not require use of a uterine or vaginal manipulator. See the uterine
manipulator manufacturers’literature regarding instruction for use, indications, contraindications
and safety information.
Warnings:
1. Do not use with pressure greater than 150 psi.
2. Do not detach the gas supply module from the gas supply while the manipulator is attached.
3. Do not shut off the gas supply module switch while the manipulator is attached.
4. Do not use substitute flexible gas lines.
5. Do not use if gas leaks are detected.
6. Use only the specified adapter with the chosen manipulator.
7. On older operating tables with motorized perineal rests, make sure the rest is in the down
position before adding the main pivot and the remainder of the assembly.
8. The gas module switch must be in the “on” position during use.
9. Do not use the sterile lines if the package is damaged or the 3 year expiration date is passed.
10. Do not attach the holder to a manipulator of a patient that is not under anesthesia or otherwise
immobilized.
11. Use only nitrogen or compressed air gas.
12. In the event the Side-Kick was disassembled without turning off the gas module switch, the
pneumatic joints may still be pressurized. To decompress, attach a male luer from a
branched gas line with one short branch disconnected or use a syringe with the plunger
removed.
13. Do not attach the Sidekick rail grip over an attachment of the table rail to the table.
14. Attach the single gas line to the pivot and the branched line to the arm.
15. Remove the Sidekick arm before raising the lower end of the operating table.
16. Do not attach a gas line to a uterine manipulator, extreme danger.
Precautions:
1. Verify that the operating table rail is not loose.
2. Verify that the operating table end can be lowered or removed.
3. Restrain the patient from sliding on the table when the table is tilted.
4. Prevent the gas supply line from damage due to moving objects.
5. Check the uterine manipulator for defects.
6. Verify that the gas supply is steady and available at 140-150 psi.
7. Securely attach all flexible gas lines to the gas supply module and to the holder.
8. Read the instruction manual prior to use.
9. When making a patient transfer to or from the operating table to a cart with Sidekick in between,
remove Sidekick or protect it from the cart.
10. Always support a connected manipulator when stepping on the gas pedal.

1. After sterilization, insert the inner rod into the outer arm.
2. If resistance is met, gas pressure may not have been released from the luer of
the outer arm after the last use.
To remove the gas, attach a male luer from a branched gas line with one short
branch disconnected, or use a syringe with the plunger removed.

1. Set the joining screw so the RUMI
can be slid into the attachment recess.
2. Slide the RUMI into the attachment
recess. This connection is made just in
front of the RUMI handle.
3. Position the RUMI adapter in
front of the RUMI handle pin.
4. Make certain the capture pin is
past the RUMI edge.

1. Attach the gas supply module to
the operating table rail at a position
where the flexible gas lines will
reach to the Holder gas line
connections. Usually this is just
beside the planned position for the
Holder rail grip.
Whenever possible attach the gas
module to the side of the table not
used for patient transfer.
2. Turn off the module switch. This
will prevent gas from leaking from
the luer connections prior to flexible
gas line connection.
3. Connect the gas supply line to the
hospital nitrogen* or compressed air
supply.
4. Set the supply to 130-150 PSI.
5. Position the attached foot pedal.
(Note that it cannot be disconnected
from the supply module.)

The rail grip assembly can be placed on either rail
behind the attachment for the leg stirrup.
1. Rotate the rail grip handle counter-clockwise until the bottom
of the lower rail grip aligns with the index mark.
This setting will allow the rail grip assembly to be attached by
tilting it outward.
In order to attach it without tilting, more counterclockwise rotations
are required. index mark

4. Rotate the handle clockwise until it is tight, approximately
three full rotations.
Be sure the assembly is hanging straight downward in both
planes during this step and the rail grip upper notch is touching
the rail on both sides of the rail grip.
2. Select a position, on the rail, that will place the Holder arm
directly below the manipulator.*
3. Tilt the assembly outward and set it on the rail. Pivot it toward
the rail until the lower rail grip is below the rail.
Corrections can be made later by repositioning the main pivot
assembly.*
The rail grip can be released and slid on the rail to re-position if
necessary.*
*The design of the Holder allows for variability in these settings.

When placing the Sidekick
Rail Grip onto the table rail,
do not put it over the rail table
attachment or a table rail notch.
Placing it in these areas could
cause an unstable attachment.
