INTRAVASCULAR DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS HAVING AN ADHESIVE FILLED DISTAL TIP ELEMENT

摘要

Intravascular devices, systems, and methods are disclosed. In some instances, the intravascular device is a guide wire with an adhesive (132) filled distal coil (122). For example, in some implementations a sensing guide wire includes a flexible elongate member (120); a sensing element (108) coupled to a distal portion of the flexible elongate member; and a flexible element (122) filled with a flexible adhesive (132) extending distally from the sensing element. Methods of making, manufacturing, and/or assembling such intravascular devices and associated systems are also provided.
