Guide your way through the CTO with ASAHI Gaia Series by using deflection and direction control.
Guide wire with a high maneuverability in the chronic total occluded lesion, and a micro-cone tip designed to improve penetrability into the lesion while
remaining flexible.
■Deflection and Torque Control
To guide the wire through the occlusion to the distal lumen by using deflection and rotational control.
■Controllability
Within strong resistance area, ASAHI Gaia experiences higher torque response and less whip motion.
■Penetrability by micro-cone tip
The ball tip was made smaller to increase its penetration efficacy.
It makes easier to create the entry route to the hard tissue and fibrous cap.
■Tip flexibility
By taking advantage of tip flexibility, ASAHI Gaia easily avoids hard tissue and advances smoothly.
Deflection control: Guiding the wire to the distal true lumen with rotational control by using deflection which occurs when advancing a shaped GW.
■1mm pre-shaped tip
The pre-shape of the tip is incorporated in the production process, significantly increase tip shape retention.
