Zusammenfassung: | A low or non-torqueable stylet may have: a core wire including: a first pre-formed bend of a first angle of about 15-90°; a second pre-formed bend of a second angle of about 8-15°, the second pre-formed bend being distal of the first pre-formed bend, and the first pre-formed bend being longer than the second pre-formed bend; an intermediate portion of about 1-3 inches extending between the first pre-formed bend and the second pre-formed bend; and a distal portion of about 1-2 inches between the second pre-formed bend and a distal tip, the distal portion having a segment with a reduced width or diameter that increases deflection of the distal tip; a tubular body disposed around the core wire; and a navigation device disposed around the core wire and within the tubular body. |
