- 详细技术说明
- USF Inventors have invented a novel torque device for manipulating and controlling a surgical guidewire in longitudinal and rotational directions. The torque deviceincludes an ordered or randomized patterned patch with an adhesive surface that adheres strongly to the thumb and forefinger portion of the surgical glove. When the thumb and forefinger of the operator are pinched together around the guidewire, the patches are capable of gripping and manipulating the guidewire. The currentinvention further includes a method of positioning a guidewire within a patient or subject using the apparatus.
