Abstract

In various examples, a guidewire for temporary pacing of tissue includes an elongate core wire and a coil disposed along at least a portion of a length of the core wire. The coil is disposed radially outwardly from and around the core wire, wherein a core axis and a coil axis are substantially aligned. At least one electrode is disposed along the guidewire and includes an uninsulated portion of the core wire disposed within an electrode section of the coil. A spacing between adjacent windings of the electrode section of the coil is configured to allow a stimulation pulse to travel from the uninsulated portion of the core wire, through the spacing between the adjacent windings of the electrode section, and to the tissue in order to stimulate the tissue.
