The Cook Medical G03460 Amplatz Extra Stiff Wire Guide is a specialized guidewire designed to provide enhanced support during complex vascular and interventional procedures. With a 0.035-inch diameter and a length of 260 cm, it offers sufficient reach for various anatomical challenges. The J-shaped, extra stiff tip features a 3 cm floppy section and a 7 cm taper, facilitating smooth navigation through tortuous vessels and aiding in the precise placement of catheters and introducer sheaths. The PTFE coating on the stainless steel construction ensures smooth manipulation and reduces friction, enhancing the ease of passage through the vascular system.

Clinically, this guidewire is utilized in procedures requiring the exchange of catheters, such as angioplasty, stent placement, and embolization therapies. Its extra stiff design provides the necessary support to maintain the shape and position of the catheter, even in challenging anatomical pathways. The gradual transition from the stiff shaft to the flexible tip allows for atraumatic navigation, minimizing the risk of vessel injury during manipulation.

The G03460 guidewire is a single-use device, ensuring optimal hygiene and reducing the risk of cross-contamination. Its latex-free construction makes it suitable for patients with latex allergies. Sold individually, it is a cost-effective solution for healthcare facilities performing interventional procedures. As part of Cook Medical's portfolio, the G03460 is backed by a reputation for quality and innovation in medical devices.
