Abstract

Abstract A catheter guide wire (10) comprising: a flexible, torqueable proximal wire section (13), a more flexible intermediate section (14) with a flexible polymer tube covering (19), and a most flexible distal end section (15). A helical ribbon coil (22) is wrapped about the intermediate core segment between the wire core and the polymer tube covering to increase radiopacity and improve torque transmission while retaining flexibility.
