Guide Wires are used to ensure rapid access, easy advancement and replacement of medical devices during urological procedures.
The following features of the different guide wires make them reliable during endourological procedures.
| FEATURES | ADVANTAGES | BENEFITS |
|---|---|---|
|
Reduces Intra-luminal Pressure |
A vortex is created by continuous irrigation and suction |
The irrigated fluid can be effectively evacuated, thus always maintaining low intra-renal pressure and temperature, ensuring fewer complications and thermal damage |
|
No More Stone Retropulsion |
Negative pressure aspiration |
Effectively prevents retrograde stone migration |
|
Improved Visual Field |
Continuous irrigation and suction |
Bleeding and dust storm from stone pulverization no longer obscure the visual field |
|
Improved Stone Clearance |
No scattering of the stone fragments |
Stone fragments get aggregated at the distal end of the ClearPetra sheath and are removed through the oblique side port by the continuous suction |
|
No Accessory Device Required |
Negative pressure aspiration helps in stone fragments evacuation spontaneously |
Due to spontaneous evacuation of fragments, stone baskets, forceps, and anti-retropulsion devices are no longer necessary. |

Different types |
Next generation ureteral access sheath with a flexible tip ClearPetra UAS for Semi rigid ureteroscopy ClearPetra Nephrostomy sheath ClearPetra Cystoscope sheath |
A flexible tip that can be passively deflected 180° to the lower pole calyces by the flexible ureteroscope, allowing for efficient and effective treatment of urinary stones Effectively helps in treating steinstrasse Reduces intra renal pressure and increases stone free rate<br Continuous aspiration of stone fragments with reduced operative time |
