Cook HiWire Nitinol Core Standard Body Wire Guides G30473
HiWire Nitinol Core Standard Body Wire Guide G30473 is a medical guidewire used to gain ureteral access during urology procedures. It features a nitinol core and hydrophilic coating for smoother advancement through the urinary tract. The wire has a 0.038 inch diameter, total length of 150 cm, and a straight flexible tip of 3 cm.
This HiWire guidewire is designed to help clinicians establish a tract or access path within the ureter and assist in placement, exchange, or replacement of urological devices such as stents or catheters. The nitinol core provides excellent flexibility and shape-memory, enabling the wire to navigate bends or curves in the urinary tract without kinking. Its hydrophilic coating reduces friction, allowing smoother and gentler passage and minimizing trauma to tissues. As a standard-body shaft type, it balances flexibility and support — ideal for routine ureteral access where precise navigation and control are needed.
