The Medtronic Launcher 8Fr RCB Coronary Guiding Catheter (REF LA8RCB) is a single-use guiding catheter designed for selective cannulation of the coronary arteries and delivery of interventional devices. The Launcher family combines a stiff stainless steel braid with a soft, atraumatic tip to balance pushability, torque transmission and vessel safety during percutaneous coronary intervention.

Key Features
Three-layer construction with a stainless steel braided shaft for 1:1 torque response.
Soft, atraumatic tip designed to reduce the risk of vessel trauma during engagement.
Large, smooth inner lumen with PTFE lining to facilitate device delivery and contrast injection.
Pre-shaped RCB (Right Coronary Bypass) curve intended for engagement of right coronary artery bypass grafts.
8 French outer diameter for enhanced backup support and compatibility with bulkier interventional devices.
Color-coded hub for quick identification of French size in the cath lab.

Clinical Applications
Selective angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Cannulation and support during procedures involving right coronary artery bypass grafts.
Delivery platform for balloons, stents and other interventional accessories where additional backup is desired.
Use cases requiring larger-lumen access such as complex lesions, bifurcations or multi-device techniques.
