Saturn Amplatz™PTFE Guidewire (Stiff Type)

Saturn Amplatz™ PTFE Guidewire (Stiff Type)

● Low-friction PTFE coating supports smooth advancement and reduces procedural resistance

● Atraumatic performance helps minimize vessel trauma during navigation and device exchange

● Biocompatible and chemically inert materials enhance safety and compatibility during intravascular use

● Superior pushability and torque response provide stable support and precise directional control

● Comprehensive range of diameters and lengths accommodates diverse cardiovascular and endovascular applications

Intended Use

Saturn Amplatz™ PTFE Guidewire (Stiff Type) is intended for vascular and urological interventions requiring enhanced support and stability. It facilitates percutaneous access and supports the placement, exchange, and positioning of catheters, balloons, stents, and other interventional devices.

Technical Features

● Low-friction PTFE coating ensures smooth advancement through sheaths, catheters, and vessel lumens, reducing resistance during device exchange

● Atraumatic flexible tip design with optimized shaft transition helps minimize the risk of vessel dissection, perforation, or spasm during navigation in tortuous anatomy

● Biocompatible and chemically inert materials support compatibility with contrast agents while reducing the potential for tissue reactivity

● Stiff nitinol core construction provides enhanced longitudinal pushability with precise 1:1 torque transmission for accurate directional control

● Multiple diameter and length options available in 0.035″ and 0.038″ with working lengths up to 260 cm to accommodate diverse procedural requirements

Clinical Applications

● Percutaneous Nephrostomy (PCN) Access: Provides stable support during renal access establishment and tract dilation

● Ureteral Stenting in Obstructed Systems: Maintains access stability in hydronephrotic or tortuous ureters during stent placement

● Complex Endourological Procedures: Functions as a stabilizing working guidewire during PCNL, antegrade ureteroscopy, and reno-vesical interventions

● Vascular Embolization and Stent Delivery: Offers rigid support for selective catheterization and device deployment in interventional radiology procedures

● Device Exchange in Stenotic Anatomy: Facilitates smooth exchange of large-bore sheaths or drainage catheters in narrowed or strictured segments
