The Argyle™ left ventricular sump vent catheter is a sterile, single use, disposable dual-lumen PVC catheter used during open heart surgery for decompression of the left ventricle to prevent over-distention and subsequent tissue damage. It is also used to measure left ventricle pressure when removing the bypass equipment. Left ventricular vents are passed either through the pulmonary vein into the left atrium, through the mitral valve and into the ventricle or directly into the ventricle through the apex of the heart.
