Cook Amplatz Fixed Extra Stiff Core Wire Guide G53563
The Amplatz Fixed Extra Stiff Core Wire Guide G53563 is a medical guide wire used in urology and interventional procedures to help place catheters or other devices. It has a fixed-core stainless steel shaft and a double-flexible tip for gentle navigation. This guide wire supports device placement or exchange by providing a stable “rail” inside the urinary tract.
This wire guide’s extra-stiff shaft gives strong support when advancing or exchanging catheters or sheaths — useful in challenging anatomies or when using heavier instruments. The double-flexible tip is designed to minimize trauma and facilitate smooth navigation through the ureter or urinary tract. Its PTFE coating reduces friction, making passage of devices easier and more controlled. As a single-use, fixed-core wire guide, it helps clinicians safely establish ureteral access and maintain tract integrity during urological procedures.
