doing an ERCP hydro wire - sa

Posted: Oct 28, 2009

I'm not with my reference books and not sure of the internet references I am seeing.

he says "Using an RX sphincterotome loaded with a hydro wire"

Not sure if Hydro-wire, Hydro wire, etc. or if it is short for hydrophilic wire.

Anyone know this or have a reference book? Thanks

According to my Stedman's there is hydrophilic polymer-coated steerable guidewire, hydrophilic-coated or Hydro Plus....... Does any of this help? These are all listed under guidewires GI&GU.

thanks - sa

I think it's probably short for hydrophilic... at any rate, I am on full QA as I'm training for a new company so I guess they will tell me Thank you!
