ABSTRACT:
A catheter guide support is provided having a wire with a proximal region, of substantially constant cross-section, a distal tapered region and a flexible protecting sheath which extends at least along the length of the distal region of the wire. The wire is constructed integral with the sheath only at the free extremity of its distal region by means of a first weld forming a rounded end, said support also having a tube extending over the whole region of the wire not covered by the sheath, one extremity of the tube simply abutting against the proximal region of the sheath whereas the opposite extremity of the tube is fixed to the proximal region of the wire by means of a second weld.
