The Asahi Chikai Guidewire (REF WAIN-CKI-200-BS) is a 0.014 in diameter, 200 cm length neurovascular guidewire featuring a round-curve shapeable distal tip. Engineered by Asahi Intecc, the Chikai platform is designed to deliver controlled torque response, smooth tracking, and reliable shape retention to support navigation of tortuous cerebrovascular anatomy during interventional procedures.
Key Features
Distal tip diameter: 0.014 in (0.36 mm)
Usable length: 200 cm, supporting microcatheter exchanges
Round-curve preshaped distal segment for selective vessel access
Shapeable tip allowing operator customization
Hydrophilic distal coating to reduce friction during navigation
PTFE-coated proximal shaft for smooth device delivery
Stainless steel core wire construction for 1:1 torque transmission
Radiopaque distal segment for fluoroscopic visualization
Clinical Applications
Intended to facilitate the placement and exchange of compatible intravascular devices in the neurovascular system. Commonly used to support microcatheter navigation during diagnostic and interventional neurovascular procedures in tortuous and distal cerebral vasculature. Refer to the manufacturer Instructions for Use for specific indications, contraindications, warnings and precautions.
