Increasing preference for Nitinol based Guidewires
Healthcare industry has incorporated guidewires as an integral part of technology required for diagnosing and in surgical procedures. Guidewires are commonly used for cannulation of a blood vessel or a hollow structure. Urological guide wires are used to facilitate the placement of endourological instruments during diagnostic or interventional procedures. These guide wires are designed to provide access into the upper urinary tract as well as exchange of devices during endourological procedures and are not intended for coronary artery, vascular or neurological procedures. Common procedures in guidewires include ureteric stenting and ureterorenoscopy.
Moreover, nitinol alloy is made of nickel and titanium, which helps the guidewire manufacturers to achieve unique characteristics when subjected to changes in temperature, mechanical loading, and external force. These properties of nitinol allow it to undergo phase transformation when subjected to temperature changes and external loadings, and offers greater shape memory due to the ease of transformation. Owing to the super elasticity exhibited by nitinol, it can recover upon release of external loading at much larger amounts of deformation, than what could be recovered through standard elasticity.
