INSERTION AID FOR MEDICAL DEVICES AND MEDICAL DEVICE USING THE INSERTION AID

摘要

Medical devices that are inserted into a body and that are used for treating a lumen inside a body sometimes use an insertion aid during insertion. However, there was a tendency for the relative positions of the insertion aid and the medical device to change, causing problems such as reduced operability and the insertion aid breaking the medical device during insertion. Disclosed are an insertion aid used by being placed within a medical device, and a medical device using said insertion aid. The insertion aid has a mechanism for holding said medical device from the inside, and said medical device uses said insertion aid, thereby making it possible to fix the relative positions of the insertion aid and the medical device when necessary.
