Functional description
InQwire Diagnostic Guide Wires are made from stainless steel, have a continuous PTFE coated coil, inside core wire and a safety wire. The core wire is fixed at the proximal end only and extends to a specified distance from the distal end. The distal segment of the core wire has a profiled taper. The core wire enhances the stiffness of the guidewire. The safety wire extends the full length of the guidewire and is welded at both the distal and proximal end.
