A long, thin, metal rod designed to guide intramedullary canal devices for performing the implantation of an intramedullary nail to treat damaged bone. The rod is usually manually inserted into the canal to typically guide a surgical instrument (e.g., a reamer) and the implantable nail. This device is made of metal [e.g., high-grade stainless steel, titanium (Ti)] and is available in a variety of sizes, lengths, and designs (e.g., round-tip, trocar-tip, or flexible-tip). It may be used in femoral, tibial, humeral or supracondylar intramedullary canals. This is a reusable device.

The Synthes 292.622 Threaded Guide Wire is a precision component crafted for the accurate placement of 3.0 mm cannulated screws, offering surgeons dependable guidance during delicate orthopedic procedures. Its slender 1.1 mm diameter ensures minimal invasiveness while enabling smooth insertion through bone and soft tissues, laying the groundwork for precise alignment.

A distinctive feature of the 292.622 model is its threaded tip, which usually spans just a few millimeters. This thread provides improved anchoring within the far cortex, enhancing stability during screw placement and helping prevent unwanted migration—particularly valuable when working in small or fragile bone segments. The remaining length of the wire remains smooth to steer instruments while reducing friction within cannulated guided systems.
