Abstract
A medical elongated body including a tubular main body and a hub connected to the tubular main body. The medical elongated body includes a strain relief supported by a distal portion of the hub. The strain relief surrounds a predetermined range of the proximal portion of the tubular main body. The medical elongated body includes a hydrophilic lubricating coating layer and a temperature responsive lubricating coating layer on the outer surface of the tubular main body, the temperature responsive lubricating coating layer being proximal to the hydrophilic lubricating coating layer. The hydrophilic lubricating coating layer exhibits lubricating characteristics when wet. The temperature responsive lubricating coating layer exhibits hydrophilic characteristics and lubricating characteristics at a temperature lower than a critical temperature when wet and exhibits hydrophobic characteristics and non-lubricating characteristics at a temperature equal to or higher than the critical temperature when wet.
