Cook HiWire Nitinol Core Standard Body Wire Guides G30478
HiWire Nitinol Core Standard Body Wire Guides G30478 is a medical guidewire used in urological procedures for ureteral access. It features a nitinol core with a hydrophilic coating to help smooth advancement through the urinary tract. The wire is 0.025 inch in diameter, 150 cm long, with a 3 cm angled tip.
This HiWire guidewire is designed to aid clinicians in establishing a tract or access path in the ureter, and to facilitate placement or exchange of urological devices such as stents or catheters. The nitinol core ensures high flexibility and shape-memory, allowing the wire to navigate bends or complex anatomy without kinking. Its hydrophilic coating reduces friction, which helps the wire pass smoothly and gently, minimizing trauma to tissues. As a stiff-body (angled) variant, it offers enhanced support and better pushability when negotiating difficult or tortuous ureters.
