Cook Amplatz Fixed Extra Stiff Core Wire Guide G53564
The Amplatz Fixed Extra Stiff Core Wire Guide G53564 is a urological guide wire used in medical procedures to place or exchange catheters and other devices. It features a fixed-core stainless steel shaft for strength and a flexible double-tip for smoother navigation. It helps establish a tract and provides a stable rail for device advancement in the urinary tract.
This guide wire delivers extra-stiff shaft support, which is especially useful when advancing heavier instruments or negotiating difficult anatomy during urological procedures. The double-flexible 5 cm tip reduces risk of trauma and allows smoother, atraumatic passage through the ureter. Its PTFE coating minimizes friction, enhancing ease of device placement or exchange. Being single-use and PTFE-coated, it ensures reliable performance for tract establishment and catheter placement in urology.
