The invention relates to a guide wire holder (1) for receiving and holding an inherently elastic medical guide wire (4) and for attaching same to a medical device, such as an endoscope, having an attachment part (2) through which the guide wire (4) can be guided and a guide wire support (3) which is connected to the attachment part (2), projects from same, and allows the guide wire (4) to be held by means of a guide wire receiving device (9, 5, 7). The guide wire receiving device contains a first guide wire deflecting element (9) in the form of a deflecting and clamping bracket (9) which is open on one side, said guide wire deflecting element guiding the guide wire (4) away from the attachment part (2) and clamping the guide wire, and the guide wire receiving device contains two additional guide wire deflecting elements (5, 7). The deflecting and clamping bracket (9) has two bracket parts (9a, 9b) which project from the guide wire support (3) and between which a slot (10) is provided. The slot runs between the two bracket parts (9a, 9b) in one position and/or alignment located outside of a guide wire expansion path of the guide wire support (3), said expansion path being determined by the inherent elasticity of the guide wire (4). |
