FDA has cleared a Teleflex 510(k) for the Twin-Pass Torque Dual Access Catheter, which is designed for procedures that “call for the delivery of two interventional guidewires from a single catheter in clinical situations where catheter delivery and torsional control are paramount,” according to the company. The device is intended to access discrete regions of the coronary or peripheral vasculature, “to facilitate placement and exchange of guidewires, and to subselectively infuse/deliver diagnostic and therapeutic agents,” it says.

  
The device contains both a rapid-exchange lumen and an over-the-wire lumen. With a 0.014 inch guidewire deployed through the RX lumen into the main branch, the over-the-wire lumen can be used for guidewire exchange, subsequent delivery of a second guidewire into a side branch, or fluid injection to a desired distal vessel segment, the company says.
