[0004] In the above solution, the guide wire body extends into the soft head, which will make the soft head harder and increase the pain of the patient when inserted into the patient's body. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a medical guide wire which can reduce the pain when the guide wire is inserted into a patient's body.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a medical guide wire, comprising a guide wire body, the guide wire body comprising a metal wire extending along the length direction of the guide wire and a first coating layer coated on the outside of the metal wire, a soft head is provided at the front end of the guide wire body, the soft head comprises a second coating layer made of soft material, the second coating layer comprises a curved segment and a straight segment in sequence along the length direction, the straight segment is located between the curved segment and the guide wire body, an extension wire extending along the length direction of the straight segment is embedded in the straight segment, and the curved segment is a solid structure.

[0007] By arranging the extension wire in the straight section, the curved section does not have the extension wire, so that the curved section of the soft head is softer, so that when the guide wire is inserted into the patient, the patient's pain can be reduced. The metal wire and the extension wire can be made of nickel-titanium alloy or 304 stainless steel. The curved section and the straight section are made of the same soft material and are arranged in one piece; the curved section is a solid structure.

[0008] Preferably, the length of the extension wire accounts for 60%-70% of the length of the soft head.

[0009] By extending the length of the wire to 60% - 70% of the length of the soft head, the soft head will not be too hard to hurt the patient, or too soft and inelastic.

[0010] Preferably, the metal wire and the extension wire are nickel-titanium alloy wires, which are shape memory alloys and can facilitate the recovery of the deformation of the soft head.

[0011] Preferably, the metal wire and the extension wire are connected and fixed.

[0012] The two can be fixed by welding, which makes assembly more convenient.

[0013] Preferably, the metal wire and the extension wire are coaxially arranged.

[0014] Ensure the contact area between the metal wire and the extension wire to ensure the connection strength between the two.

[0015] Preferably, the Shore hardness of the soft head is 40A-50A, which further reduces the pain of the guide wire when it is inserted into the patient's body, while ensuring the hardness requirement.

[0016] Preferably, the bending angle of the bending section is 20°-90°, which satisfies most of the complex structures of the human body and facilitates the insertion of the guide wire. The bending angle refers to the angle between the front end of the bending section and the straight direction of the guide wire.

[0017] Preferably, the soft material is polyurethane or PEBAX (polyether block polyamide).

[0018] Polyurethane or PEBAX materials are softer in texture and can reduce pain for patients.

[0019] Preferably, the material of the first coating layer is PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) or polyurethane or PEBAX (polyether block polyamide).

[0020] PTFE material has good lubricity, reduces friction, and reduces damage when the guide wire passes through the human body. Polyurethane or PEBAX can also be used, and polyurethane or PEBAX materials also have good toughness and lubricity.

[0021] Preferably, the outer wall of the first coating layer is provided with a mark, the mark includes a first mark and a second mark, and the first mark and the second mark form a blue and white zebra stripe, which is convenient for endoscopic observation of the position of the guide wire. The zebra stripe is a stripe that can be used for endoscopic observation on any existing guide wire.

[0022] The utility model has the following advantages: by arranging the extension wire in the straight section, the curved section does not have a metal wire, so that the curved section of the soft head is softer, thereby reducing the patient's pain when the guide wire is inserted into the patient, and the proportion of the buried nickel-titanium alloy wire can ensure that the head of the soft head of the guide wire is softer and the overall hardness of the guide wire can be guaranteed, which can reduce the patient's pain when the guide wire is inserted into the patient, and can also help the doctor control the advancement and rotation angle of the soft head of the guide wire; the specific 20°-90° angle of the curved section can facilitate passing through the complex structure of the human body.
