Boston Scientific Sensor PTFE-Nitinol Guidewire with Hydrophilic Tip M0066703021
The Sensor PTFE‑Nitinol Guidewire is a sterile, single-use hybrid wire with a 0.038″ (≈ 0.97 mm) diameter and 150 cm length, featuring a 3 cm angled hydrophilic floppy tip. It combines a kink‑resistant nitinol core with a low-friction PTFE jacket and a hydrophilic tip for smooth navigation. The Dual‑Flex design includes a 10 cm flexible proximal segment, easing scope passage and preventing damage.
This hybrid wire merges the superior access of hydrophilic tips with the stability and tracking of PTFE-coated bodies, enabling it to function as both an access and working wire, eliminating the need for exchanges during urological procedures. Its nitinol core resists kinking while transmitting tactile feedback back to the surgeon, and the tungsten-filled radiopaque tip aids in precise fluoroscopic visualization. The Dual‑Flex’s flexible proximal segment protects delicate flexible ureteroscopes during insertion and manipulation. Clinically, it reduces wire exchanges, procedural time, and instrument stress.
