Angiographic catheters with marker bands may also be used for anatomical measurements. ## Device Story Single lumen angiographic catheter; 4F and 5F sizes; 40cm to 125cm lengths. Distal shaft segment features hydrophilic coating to facilitate navigation. Used by physicians in clinical settings for vascular access; delivers radiopaque contrast media to target sites for diagnostic imaging. Marker bands allow for anatomical measurements. Device provides improved trackability and reduced friction during insertion compared to non-coated catheters. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. ## Technological Characteristics Single lumen catheter; 4F/5F diameters; 40-125cm lengths. Distal segment features hydrophilic coating. Diagnostic intravascular catheter (21 CFR 870.1200). ## 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 - Impress® Angiographic Catheter ([K053171](/device/K053171.md)) - Radifocus® Glidecath™ ([K915414](/device/K915414.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
