PowerWireTM Radiofrequency Guidewire
When your standard guidewire is insufficient
The PowerWireTM Radiofrequency (RF) Guidewire is
designed to assist you when your standard guidewire is
insufficient. The PowerWireTM RF Guidewire cuts through
occlusions by delivering radiofrequency energy. Delivered
radiofrequency energy vaporizes a channel through
occlusions with minimal trauma to surrounding tissue.
Additionally, mechanical force can also be applied with the
PowerWireTM RF Guidewire just as with a traditional
guidewire. Physicians have used the wire when treating
conditions associated with vascular occlusions and
obstructions.
Safe and easy use
• The distal five centimeters of the wire is softer than the
• body of the wire, ending at the rounded, radiopaque tip
• to prevent unwanted tissue damage
• The stiff 0.035” body of the wire in combination with
• both straight and angled distal end configurations, allows
• for effective torqueability and steerability
• The low-friction insulation on the wire provides lubricity
• for easy manipulation within vessels
• Just like a guidewire, the PowerWireTM RF Guidewire
• allows for the loading and delivery of balloon catheters
• over its 250 cm long exchange length.
