The PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Guidewire is designed to optimize vascular access and facilitate the advancement of catheters during diagnostic and interventional procedures.
Why it is used:
To provide smooth, lubricious access through vessels
Reduces resistance, allowing easy passage of catheters
Ensures stability and control during device placement
Where it is used:
Coronary interventions – angioplasty, stent placement
Peripheral vascular procedures – crossing stenosis or occlusions
General catheterization – diagnostic angiography
Key Benefits:
PTFE coating minimizes friction and vessel trauma
Excellent torque control for precise navigation
Wide availability in multiple sizes and lengths
Compatible with standard guiding catheters and sheaths
