## Indications for Use

The Langston™ Dual Lumen Catheter is indicated for delivery of contrast medium 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 Catheter functions as diagnostic intravascular catheter; delivers contrast media; enables simultaneous pressure measurement from two sites. Device consists of Merit Medical Softouch Diagnostic Intravascular Catheter (inner lumen) joined to Vascular Solutions-designed extruded outer lumen via adapter junction. Adapter junction includes side port with stopcock/tube assembly for fluid flow and pressure monitoring. Distal end of each lumen features side holes for simultaneous pressure sensing. Deployed through standard guide catheters; accommodates 0.038" guidewires. Used by clinicians in angiographic settings to assess pressure gradients (transvalvular, intravascular, intraventricular). Output allows physician to evaluate hemodynamic status and inform clinical decision-making regarding cardiac or vascular pathology.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Assessment of physical properties and functional performance confirmed suitability for intended use.

## Technological Characteristics

Dual lumen diagnostic intravascular catheter; 7F outer lumen, 5F inner lumen. Components include Merit Medical Softouch catheter (inner) and extruded outer lumen joined by adapter junction. Features side holes at distal end for pressure sensing; side port with stopcock/tube assembly. Compatible with 0.038" guidewires. Non-powered, mechanical device.

## 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.

## 510(k) Summary

K061565

Common/Usual Name: Intravascular diagnostic catheter

Product Trade Name: Langston™ Dual Lumen Catheter

Classification Name: Diagnostic intravascular catheter; 21 CFR 870.1200; DQO

Manufacturer: Vascular Solutions, Inc. 6464 Sycamore Court Minneapolis, Minnesota 55369

Establishment Registration: 2134812

- Contact: Julie Tapper Regulatory Affairs Associate Phone (763) 656-4228 Fax (763) 656-4253
Performance Standards: No performance standards have been developed under section 514 for this device.

Device Description: The Vascular Solutions Langston™ Dual Lumen Catheter is intended for use as a pressure measurement catheter and for delivery of contrast media during angiographic studies. The Langston catheter consists of the Merit Medical Softouch Diagnostic Intravascular Catheter (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 pigtail catheter and outer lumen are joined together using an adapter junction placed near the proximal end of the pigtail catheter. 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 each lumen is perforated with side holes to allow pressurement simultaneously. The Langston catheter is deployed through standard guide catheters and will accommodate standard 0.038" diameter guidewires.

Intended Use: The Langston™ Dual Lumen Catheter is indicated for delivery of contrast medium 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.

Summary of Non-Clinical Testing: Testing included assessment of the physical properties of the device and its ability to achieve its intended use. The results of the tests confirmed the suitability of the device for its intended use.

Predicate Devices: The Langston 7F/5F dual lumen catheter is substantially equivalent to the Langston 8F/5F (K041909), 7F/4F (K050168), and 6F/4F (K051395) dual lumen catheters.

Conclusions: The Langston 7F outer lumen and 5F inner lumen is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Langston catheters, based on a comparison of the indications for use, construction materials, catheter dimensions, injection pressure ratings, and sterilization methods.
