The Medtronic Launcher 5Fr HSI Coronary Guiding Catheter (REF LA5HSI) is a preformed coronary guiding catheter engineered to provide reliable backup support, smooth device deliverability and a large internal lumen in a 5 French profile. The Launcher family uses a three-layer construction intended to combine kink resistance, torque control and consistent tip shape retention during coronary access and device exchanges.

Key Features
Three-layer shaft construction designed for torque transmission and kink resistance.
Stainless steel braid for shape retention and pushability.
Soft, atraumatic tip intended to reduce vessel trauma at the ostium.
HSI (Hockey Stick Internal) preformed curve for coronary ostial engagement.
5 French outer diameter with a large inner lumen to accommodate interventional devices.
PTFE inner liner to support smooth device passage and reduce friction.
Hydrophilic or lubricious outer coating per manufacturer specification — Not specified in the located sources.
Radiopaque markers and identification per manufacturer IFU — Not specified in the located sources.

Clinical Applications
Intended to introduce interventional and diagnostic devices into the coronary vasculature.
Supports percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) workflows where a hockey-stick style curve is preferred.
Suitable for cases requiring 5Fr access with predictable ostial cannulation.
Use only as directed in the manufacturer Instructions for Use; clinical suitability is determined by the treating physician.
