Abstract:
Intravascular devices, systems, and methods are disclosed. In some instances, the intravascular device is a guide wire (100) with an adhesive filled flexible element (120). For example, in some implementations a sensing guide wire includes a flexible elongate member (102); a flexible element (120) extending distally from the flexible elongate member; a core member (126) extending within a lumen of the flexible element; at least one flexible adhesive (132) filling at least a portion of the lumen between the core member and the flexible element along a length of the flexible element; and a sensing element (108) positioned distal of the flexible element. Methods of making, manufacturing, and/or assembling such intravascular devices and associated systems are also provided.
