PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a guide wire flexible in a distal portion and capable of preventing damage such as breakage and separation of a coil in the distal portion.SOLUTION: A guide wire 100 includes: an elongated core member 110; and a luminal body 120 located to cover a periphery of a distal portion 111 of the core member. The luminal body is formed of a helically wound belt-shaped member 130, and has an engagement portion 133 which causes side portions 131a, 131b of the belt-shaped member adjacent in a longitudinal direction of the core member to engage with each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2COPYRIGHT: (C)2019,JPO&INPIT【課題】先端部に柔軟性を備えるとともに、先端部においてコイルの破断や離断等の破損が生じるのを防止できるガイドワイヤを提供する。【解決手段】ガイドワイヤ100は、長尺状のコア部材110と、コア部材の先端部111の周囲を覆うように配置された管腔体120と、を有し、管腔体は、らせん状に巻回された帯状部材130で形成されており、かつ、帯状部材においてコア部材の長軸方向に隣接する側部131a、131b同士を係合する係合部133を有する。【選択図】図2
