Abstract

An elongate member, such as a solid core exchange wire guide with a polymeric outer coating, includes at least a first system of indicia located on the proximal portion of the elongate member that comprises a series of scale reference markings. In one embodiment and use thereof, the wire guide, which includes a radiopaque marker within the distal portion, is advanced into a body passage. The radiopaque marker is withdrawn to a second position and the new scale reference marking is noted. The distance between the two positions along the scale is then calculated to determine the length of the structure. To aid in the ability of the endoscopist to maintain the position of an exchange wire guide during a medical procedure, a second system of indicia, such as oblique markings or helical striping, may be included for easier detection of longitudinal movement.

Claims (9)

1. A medical device comprising an elongate member that includes a distal tip, a distal portion, a proximal portion, and an indicia pattern, wherein the indicia pattern includes a first system of indicia; wherein at least a portion of the first system of indicia located on the proximal portion is viewable to an operator of the medical device, characterised by: the elongate member comprising a wire guide that includes the first system of indicia, wherein the first system of indicia includes scale reference markings comprising a series of unique markings.
2. The device of claim 1 wherein the scale reference markings comprise a sequentially increasing marker series at distributed along the proximal portion of the wire guide at a selected interval.
3. The device of claim 2, wherein the selected interval is 5 cm.
4. the device of claim 1 wherein the scale reference markings include numerical values identifying the particular distance to the fixed reference point.
5. The device of claim 1 wherein the first system of indicia further includes a plurality of intermediate markings located therebetween selected adjacent scale reference markings.
6. The device of claim 5 wherein the scale reference markings are located at cm increments relative to a fixed reference point located along the wire guide and the intermediate markings are located at 1 cm increments relative to the fixed reference point.
7. The device of claim 1 wherein the distal portion includes at least one radiopaque marker.
8. The device of claim 7 wherein one of the at least one radiopaque marker includes the distal tip.
9. The device of claim 1 wherein the indicia pattern further includes a second system of indicia that includes a pattern of markings located at least partially between selected ones of the scale reference markings, whereby the second system of indicia comprises a series of discrete diagonal lines that at least partially circumscribe the elongated member, and/or at least one helical stripe extending along at least a portion of the elongated member, and/or an outer layer, whereby the outer layer including alternating first and second helical striping incorporated thereinto.
