  • Guide wire for minimally invasive operations and method for producing a guide wire
    Patent number: 11596774
    Abstract: A guide wire for minimally invasive operations with a distal wire end piece (3, II) connected to a wire main piece (2), wherein the guide wire (I, 10) has, at least in the distal wire end piece (3, II), an inner shaft (4, 14) and at least one protective layer enclosing the inner shaft (4, 14), the inner shaft (4, 14) comprises a first fibre composite material and, at least in the distal wire end piece (3, II), the inner shaft (4, 14) has a plurality of weakened points (8, 18), which are created by mechanical interventions, is characterised in that the weakened points (8, 18) are created by buckling load, bending load and/or breaking load. Correspondingly, for a method for producing a guide wire of this kind it is proposed that the weakened points (8, 18) are created by buckling load, bending load and/or breaking load.
