Cook Safety Wire Guide Introducer G14306
Safety Wire Guide Introducer G14306 is a polyethylene sheath-introducer set used in urology to place a safety guide wire before further procedures. It provides a pathway through the urinary tract or access tract to safely insert a guide wire. It is typically used at the start of endourological procedures to secure access.
This introducer set allows safe, controlled antegrade placement of a safety guide wire prior to endourological interventions — giving clinicians stable access before advancing other instruments. The device comprises a radiopaque sheath and an obturator, which help visualize and guide wire placement under fluoroscopy. Once positioned, the sheath provides a secure conduit for subsequent catheters or guidewires, reducing trauma and risk of misplacement. Because it is single-use and made of polymer (polyethylene), it supports sterile, disposable access — minimizing infection risk.
