Description

The purpose of using guidewires in endourological procedures is to:

  • Obtain direct access to the upper uri­nary tract,
  • Straight­en the ureter to pro­vide an eas­i­er path­way for the inser­tion of oth­er uro­log­i­cal instru­ments
  • Bypass stric­tures in the ureter
  • Secure a path­way with­in the lumen for the pas­sage of catheters, endo­scopes, and oth­er endouro­log­i­cal tools.

In the Skamex range, you will find guidewires:

  • Made of niti­nol with a hydrophilic coat­ing either entire­ly or on the prox­i­mal sec­tion to ensure safe inser­tion in dif­fi­cult areas with­out the risk of dam­ag­ing the ureter,
  • Made of stain­less steel with an addi­tion­al Teflon coat­ing to reduce fric­tion,
  • Super stiff guidewires made of stain­less steel for per­cu­ta­neous pro­ce­dures (PCN, catheter exchange).
  • Man­u­fac­tur­er:
