Abstract:
A device and method of providing vascular intervention is provided. The method involves the steps of inserting a guidewire having a flexible tip into an iliac artery and into an aorta, inserting a sheath having an introducer therethrough, the introducer having an angulated flexible tip, into the iliac artery over the guidewire, wherein the angulated tip of the introducer is also inserted into the aorta, and pulling back the guidewire from the introducer so that the angulated flexible tip of the introducer falls over an aortic bifurcation into a contralateral iliac artery. A kit is also provided, the kit having a sheath, an introducer running through the sheath and extending past a distal end of the sheath, and a guidewire running through the sheath and introducer; the guidewire having a flexible tip at a distal end and a stiff portion proximal to the flexible tip.
