The Medtronic Launcher 5Fr LARA Coronary Guiding Catheter (REF LA5LARA) is a single-use coronary guiding catheter designed to provide consistent backup support, atraumatic vessel engagement and efficient device delivery during percutaneous coronary procedures. The Launcher family is engineered with a stainless steel braid and a soft, rounded tip intended to combine pushability, torque response and lumen stability across the full range of coronary access strategies.

Key Features
Left Anterior Right Anomalous (LARA) curve geometry intended for engagement of anomalous coronary anatomy.
5 French outer diameter for reduced-profile femoral or radial access.
Stainless steel braided shaft for predictable torque transmission and kink resistance.
Soft, rounded atraumatic distal tip designed to minimize ostial trauma.
Large, smooth inner lumen to support contrast delivery and interventional device passage.
Hydrophilic-compatible outer surface designed for smooth advancement through the vasculature.

Clinical Applications
Selective angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) where an LARA curve is selected by the operator.
Engagement of anomalous coronary ostia not optimally accessed by standard Judkins or Amplatz curves.
Delivery of guidewires, balloon catheters and compatible interventional devices through a 5Fr platform.
Diagnostic and interventional case settings where lower-profile guiding support is preferred.
