Abstract

The present invention provides a sensor guidewire with which measurement using a sensor can be easily performed with high accuracy.The sensor guidewire (10) includes a tubular body (40) that covers a sensor (30). The tubular body (40) includes a proximal blocking wall (43) that is formed on a proximal side of a measurement portion (32) of the sensor (30), a distal blocking wall (44) that is formed on a distal side of the measurement portion (32) of the sensor (30), and a hole (42) that extends through the tubular body (40) and through which blood flows into or flows out of the tubular body past the measurement portion (32) of the sensor (30). The sensor (30) is disposed on a proximal side of the hole (42). The proximal blocking wall (43) and the distal blocking wall (44) form a measurement chamber (41) in the tubular body (40), and the sensor (30) does not impede blood flow through the hole (42).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to guidewires with attached sensors. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, various guide wires have been proposed as guide wires for guiding catheters and the like inserted into tubular organs such as blood vessels, alimentary canals, and urinary catheters, or tissues in the body for treatment and examination. [0003] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique of accommodating a pressure sensor in a cylindrical metal case provided at the front end, and introducing a blood flow or the like into the sensor through a hole formed in the metal case to measure blood pressure or the like. guidewire with attached sensor. The pressure sensitive element of the sensor is arranged at a position facing the hole. [0004] In addition, Patent Document 2 discloses a sensor-attached guide wire in which a sensor is embedded in a recess formed in a mandrel. [0005] prior art literature [0006] patent documents [00...
