Abstract
A method of guiding an angiographic wire while delivering fluid solvent to the wire. The method incorporates a guide device comprising a housing that is mated to a base in a manner that defines an aperture for slidably receiving the angiographic wire. A plunger is disposed within the housing in a vertically adjustable manner such that the plunger has an open position, a closed position, and one or more intermediate positions relative to the housing. The angiographic wire is placed in the aperture, and the housing is mated to the base such that the wire is slidably retained in the aperture. The plunger is depressed such that a compression pad on the plunger is placed in contact with the wire, the wire being slidably retained between the compression pad and a base pad attached to the base.
