Frequently asked questions

What do 0.014, 0.018 and 0.035 mean on a guidewire?

What is a hydrophilic guidewire?

A wire with a coating that becomes very slippery when wet, which helps cross tight or tortuous segments. It must be kept wet and handled carefully because it can pass where it should not, for example under the vessel lining.

Extra stiff wires such as the Amplatz type support sheaths, stents and other large devices once access is established. They are not used to steer through vessels.
