What is it indicated for?

LiPPSTM Intravascular Pressure Sensing System is intended to be used in an environment like cathlab and for use in blood vessels, including coronary and peripheral vessels, to measure intravascular pressure during angiography and/or interventional procedures. Pressure measurements are obtained to provide hemodynamic information, such as fractional flow reserve, for the diagnosis and treatment of blood vessel diseases.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
