## Indications for Use

The Vascular Solutions Langston™ Dual Lumen Pigtail Catheter is indicated for delivery of contrast media in angiographic studies and for simultaneous pressure measurement from two sites. This type of pressure measurement is useful in determining transvalvular, intravascular and intraventricular pressure gradients.

## Device Story

Langston™ Dual Lumen Pressure Monitoring Catheter facilitates simultaneous pressure measurement and contrast media delivery during angiographic procedures. Device comprises inner lumen (Merit Medical Softouch Diagnostic Intravascular Catheter) and extruded outer lumen joined by adapter junction. Distal end of outer lumen features holes for pressure sensing; inner lumen accommodates standard 0.038'' guidewires. Used by physicians in clinical settings (e.g., cath lab) to assess pressure gradients across valves or within vessels/ventricles. Output is real-time pressure data displayed on external monitoring equipment, enabling clinical decision-making regarding hemodynamic status and valvular function.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only, including design verification and biocompatibility assessments.

## Technological Characteristics

Dual lumen catheter; inner lumen (Merit Medical Softouch); extruded outer lumen; adapter junction with side port/stopcock; 0.038'' guidewire compatibility; distal holes for pressure sensing.

## Regulatory Identification

An intravascular diagnostic catheter is a device used to record intracardiac pressures, to sample blood, and to introduce substances into the heart and vessels. Included in this generic device are right-heart catheters, left-heart catheters, and angiographic catheters, among others.

## Predicate Devices

- Dual Lumen Pigtail Catheter
- Cordis Dual Lumen Pressure Monitoring Catheter
- Merit Medical Softouch Diagnostic Intravascular Catheter ([K943739](/device/K943739.md))

## Device Description:

Device Desemplosi.
The Vascular Solutions Langston™ Dual Lumen Pressure Monitoring catheter is intended for use as a pressure measurement catheter and for delivery of contrast media during angiographic studies. The DLP catheter consists of the Merit Medical Softouch Diagnostic Intravascular Catherer (K943739) as the inner lumen and an extruded outer lumen designed by Vascular Solutions. The inner lumen and hub assembly are purchased from Merit Medical in a non-sterile state. The Merit Softouch catheter and outer lumen are joined together using an adapter junction placed near the proximal end of the Merit Softouch catherer. The adapter junction incorporates a side port fitted with a stopcock/tube assembly for fluid flow and pressure measurement within the outer tube. The distal end of the outer for trail 110 ware possible holes to allow pressure measurement simultaneously with the tube is personed was as a catheter. The dual lumen catheter is deployed through standard sidences at are and will accommodate standard 0.038'' diameter guidewires.

### Intended Use:

The Vascular Solutions Langston™ Dual Lumen Pigtail Catheter is indicated for delivery of The vacouxi oor in angiographic studies and for simultaneous pressure measurement from two sites. This type of pressure measurement is useful in determining transvalvular, intravascular and intraventricular pressure gradients.
