Cook HiWire Nitinol Core Standard Body Wire Guides G30472
The HiWire Nitinol Core Standard Body Wire Guide G30472 is a medical guidewire used in urological procedures to gain ureteral access. It has a nitinol core with a hydrophilic coating that enables smooth passage through the urinary tract. The wire has a 0.038-inch diameter, is 150 cm long, and features a 3 cm angled flexible tip.
The HiWire G30472 guidewire is designed to help clinicians negotiate the urinary tract’s anatomies — including curves and angles — with minimal risk of kinking, thanks to its nitinol core. Its hydrophilic coating reduces friction, allowing easier insertion and gentler passage through the ureter, reducing trauma to surrounding tissue. The 3 cm angled flexible tip improves steerability and helps guide the wire through challenging or tortuous ureter paths. As a standard-body shaft, the wire balances flexibility and support, making it suitable for routine ureteral access and device exchange or placement during urology procedures.
