ConMed DIS150 Marked Spring-Tip Guidewire — (10/Box)

Description

The ConMed DIS150 Marked Spring-Tip Guidewire is designed to provide safe, controlled duct navigation during endoscopic and interventional procedures. The flexible spring-coil distal tip is engineered to reduce the risk of duct trauma while enabling smooth advancement through tortuous anatomy.

The wire includes visual length markings along the shaft to assist clinicians with insertion depth tracking and device positioning under fluoroscopy. This feature helps improve procedural accuracy during cannulation, device exchange, and stent placement.

The combination of a spring tip, radiopaque markings, and controlled shaft stiffness allows the DIS150 guidewire to balance flexibility for navigation with sufficient support for advancing catheters, balloons, and accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is a spring-tip guidewire?
   A spring-tip guidewire has a flexible coiled distal tip designed to minimize trauma to the duct while navigating curves and narrow passages.
2. What are the markings used for?
   The shaft markings allow clinicians to track how much wire has been inserted and assist with positioning devices under fluoroscopy.
3. Is this guidewire stiff or flexible?
   It is designed to provide a balance — flexible enough at the tip for atraumatic navigation, with sufficient shaft support for device advancement.
4. Is this guidewire single-use?
   Yes. DIS150 guidewires are supplied sterile and intended for single use only.
5. Can this be used for pancreatic procedures?
   Yes, when clinically appropriate and based on physician judgment and compatibility.
