Guiding Catheter vs Diagnostic Catheter: A Comprehensive Comparison 2025-03-17
A guiding catheter is a specialized tool designed to navigate through blood vessels to provide access for other interventional devices, such as guidewires and balloons. At SCW Medicath, our guiding catheters are engineered for versatility and compatibility with a wide range of catheters and guidewires. They feature a robust design, a large lumen, and a streamlined structure that allows for smoother navigation within the vascular system. The hydrophilic coating on our guiding catheters enhances patient comfort by reducing friction during insertion, making them a valuable asset in various medical procedures.
