Cook BiWire Nitinol Core Stiff Body Wire Guides G46137
The BiWire Nitinol Core Stiff Body Wire Guides G46137 is a medical guidewire designed for use in urological procedures. It has a nitinol core and flexible tips at both ends — one straight and one angled — to help navigate the ureter. This wire guide is a stiff-body version, used to gain ureteral access and assist in device placement or exchange.
This guidewire is engineered with a super-elastic nitinol core, giving it excellent flexibility and shape-memory while resisting kinking during navigation through the urinary tract. The dual-tip design (straight and angled) enables clinicians to choose the most appropriate configuration depending on the anatomical pathway, improving access and maneuverability. A hydrophilic coating reduces friction, making it easier to advance the wire with minimal trauma and smoother progression. As a stiff-body variant, it provides better support and pushability when placing or exchanging medical devices, especially in challenging or tortuous ureters.
