Along with traditional guidewire types including straight, angle and J shape, the SSS Guidewire comes in additional shapes like the BK, BK M and AM which facilitate easy maneuverability especially in bifurcation areas like in the subclavian artery and in tortuous vessels.
With its Nickel+Titanium core, the SSS Guidewire is significantly stiffer than other guidewires. This enables the SSS Guidewire to have superior torqueability and pushability even in cases of extreme vessel tortuosity like those encountered during transradial cases.
Compared to other wires, SSS guidewires can easily straighten any pre-shaped catheter without pushing longer lengths of wire inside. This leads to decreased procedure time and improved safety for the patient.
Compared to Teflon coating, hydrophilic coating has a lower frictional resistance and lower thrombogenic factor. Technowood’s special hydrophilic coating formula ensures improved but not excessive lubricity for easier passage through small, narrow tortuous vessels and reduced risk of injury and clot formation inside the vessels.
Prevents the guidewire tip from accidentally entering the side port of a Y connector to ensure a quicker and more efficient procedure.
