The Medtronic Launcher 5Fr EBU35 Coronary Guiding Catheter (REF LA5EBU35) is a single-use guiding catheter designed to facilitate the introduction and placement of interventional devices into the coronary vasculature. The Launcher family is engineered to deliver consistent backup support, smooth device tracking, and a large internal lumen relative to its outer profile, making it a workhorse choice for percutaneous coronary procedures. The EBU (Extra Back-Up) curve in a 3.5 configuration is intended for left coronary engagement where additional passive support is desired.

Key Features
Curve: EBU 3.5 left-system geometry for enhanced passive backup support.
French Size: 5Fr profile to support radial and femoral access strategies.
Construction: Three-layer shaft with stainless steel braid for torque transmission and kink resistance.
Inner Lumen: Optimized inner diameter to accommodate a broad range of interventional devices (refer to current IFU for exact dimensions).
Tip Design: Soft, atraumatic tip intended to reduce the potential for ostial trauma during engagement.
Coating: Hydrophilic-coated outer surface on the distal segment to facilitate smooth advancement.
Sterility: Supplied sterile for single use.

Clinical Applications
Intended to provide a conduit for the delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic devices into the coronary arteries. The EBU 3.5 shape is commonly selected for engagement of the left coronary system in adult anatomies where additional backup support is required for device delivery. Always refer to the current Instructions for Use for indications, contraindications, warnings, and precautions.
