CATHETER GUIDE WIRE AND PRODUCTION METHOD FOR THE SAME

摘要

In a catheter guide wire 1 formed of an identical material, since the catheter guide wire 1 consists of a portion 7 having a transformation point and portions 3, 5 not having a transformation point, the body portion 3 will not be excessively flexible and has appropriate rigidity while the connect portion 7 maintains flexibility, so that the power of pressing the catheter guide wire 1 is sufficiently transmitted to the connect portion 7 side from the body portion 3 side, whereby insertion operability of the guide wire 1 is improved. <IMAGE>
