Abstract

See full text

A guidewire includes a core shaft, a coil body disposed around an outer periphery of the core shaft, and a resin layer. The resin layer includes a proximal end part disposed around an outer periphery of the coil body; a distal end part located between the core shaft and the coil body distal to the proximal end part and having an outer diameter that is smaller than an outer diameter of the proximal end part; and a tapered part located between the proximal end part and the distal end part and having an outer diameter that decreases in the distal direction. The distal end part of the coil body is not covered with the resin layer. The guidewire has improved rotation performance (operativity) while maintaining insertability, and a risk that a distal end the resin layer will detach from the guidewire is reduced.
