Abstract

See full text

A guidance device for mating a guidewire with a lumen of a dilator. The guidance device includes a body defining a conduit. The conduit may include a first conduit portion extending from a first end of the body, and may be sized to receive a distal portion of the dilator. The conduit may also include a second conduit portion, extending from a second end of the body, in communication with the first conduit portion. The second conduit portion may be sized to receive the guidewire. The conduit may align the lumen of the dilator with the guidewire when the distal portion of the dilator and the guidewire are received in the conduit such that the guidewire can be inserted into the lumen of the dilator. The body may also include an open slit to enable the guidance device to be removed from the dilator and the guidewire.
