Boston Scientific Sensor PTFE-Nitinol Guidewire with Hydrophilic Tip M0066703121
The Sensor™ Dual‑Flex guidewire is a sterile, single-use hybrid wire featuring a 0.038″ (~0.97 mm) diameter and 150 cm length, with a 3 cm straight hydrophilic floppy tip. It combines a kink-resistant nitinol core and a PTFE jacket for smooth catheter tracking, while the 10 cm flexible proximal segment protects flexible ureteroscopes. Designed to serve as both access and working wire, minimizing exchanges during urologic procedures
This guidewire merges the lubricity of a hydrophilic tip with the control of a PTFE body, ideal for negotiating tortuous or obstructed anatomy without needing wire exchanges. Its nitinol core offers tactile feedback and resists kinking under stress , while the tungsten-filled radiopaque tip enhances fluoroscopic visibility. The Dual‑Flex proximal segment helps prevent damage during scope advancement in sensitive anatomy. This design streamlines procedures by reducing equipment changes, saving time, and reducing costs .
