Abstract

A preformed anchoring wire guide (10) for medical procedures such as renal angioplasty. The wire guide (10) includes a preformed bend (14) having an angle (15) with respect to the longitudinal axis (28) that corresponds with the takeoff angle of the renal artery (23) relative to the aorta (33). This preformed bend (14) allows easier access to the ostium (22) of the renal artery (23) and allows the distal portion (27) of the wire guide to anchor within the artery (23), thereby improving trackability of a balloon angioplasty catheter (21), reducing the need for a guiding catheter, and reducing the likelihood of vessel damage or thrombus shear due to forces that are normally exerted against the wall of the vessel (33) by a standard wire guide. The wire guide is comprised of a lubricious polymer-coated (19) superelastic memory alloy mandril (11), such as a nickel-titanium alloy, having a tapered distal portion (20) over which a flexible tip portion (12) comprising spring coil wire is attached to provide radiopacity and safety to the vasculature. The distal portion (27) of the wire guide is further made atraumatic by the addition of a hook-shaped or "J" tip (29).
Additionally, the nickel-titanium alloy mandril is cold-worked in its austenitic by overstressing the wire in a fixture, thereby shifting at least part of the crystalline structure to martensite within the region of the preformed bend (14). The cold-worked nitinol wire guide has improved resistance to dislodgement and deformation by an advancing catheter while still retaining its desirable superelastic properties.
