What is it indicated for?

The Mikro-Cath is a single-use cardiovascular catheter intended to be used for medical research and diagnostic purposes. The catheter is used to measure hemodynamic cardiac pressures in the human body to allow physicians to better understand cardiac health. The catheter would be used as a minimally invasive device under short term limited body contact <24 hours. The typical application will be through the femoral artery with the use of an additional guiding catheter.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
