  • Publication number: 20240115837
    Abstract: A delivery guidewire (100), comprising: a core wire (110) comprising a first segment (111), a second segment (112) and a third segment (113), which are arranged in sequence and have diameters decreasing in the direction from a distal end to a proximal end of the delivery guidewire (100); a metal ring (130) at least partially disposed at a proximal end of the first segment (111); and a spring (120) at least partially disposed over the outer side of the second segment (112). A distal end of the spring (120) abuts against a proximal end of the metal ring (130), and a distal section of the spring (120) has a diameter smaller than a diameter of a proximal section thereof. The diameter of the distal section of the spring (120) that is smaller than the diameter of the proximal section of the spring (120) results in a smaller clearance between the distal section of the spring (120) and the core wire (110), which enables greater concentricity of the distal section of the spring (120) with the core wire (110).
