Abstract

A composite guidewire comprising: a proximal wire segment having a proximal end, a distal end and a longitudinal axis extending between the proximal end and the distal end, the distal end of the proximal wire segment being formed with a first fiat planar bonding face which extends parallel to the longitudinal axis, the proximal wire segment having a first elasticity; a distal wire segment having a proximal end, a distal end and a longitudinal axis extending between the proximal end and the distal end, the proximal end of the distal wire segment being formed with a second fiat planar bonding face which extends parallel to the longitudinal axis, the distal wire segment having a second elasticity; wherein the second fiat planar bonding face of the proximal wire segment is formed complementary to the first fiat planar bonding face of the distal wire segment.
