Catheter guidewire Gladius EX

hydrophilic

Summary
ASAHI Gladius EX is a mid-weight, non-tapered polymer-jacket guidewire designed for crossing long, tortuous occluded segments and ambiguous-route chronic total occlusions (CTO). Available in 0.36 mm (0.014 in) diameter with polymer + hydrophilic coating and usable lengths of 200 cm and 300 cm.

Key claims

• Broaden your approach to CTO cases with a middle-weight, versatile guidewire suitable for complex anatomy.
• High lubricity: extended hydrophilic coating (coating length 500 mm) enables smoother passage through long stenotic lesions.
• Torque response: ACT ONE multi-wire coil balances torque force, responsiveness, durability and rigidity to improve pushability and reduce whip motion.
• Polymer + hydrophilic coating enhances surface performance, trackability and device control in tortuous vessels.
