Peripheral Specialty Guide Wires

Abbott’s family of specialty guide wires provide increasing tip stiffness for surperb crossing performance. This is especially important when treating lesions with increased complexity and calcification.

Types of Peripheral Specialty Guide Wires

Abbott's specialty guide wires have a greater tip load for successfully crossing complex lesions. Note in the image below that specific guide wires are designed for different types of stenoses, vessel anatomy and crossability.
