Abstract: A device for delivering a guidewire to a target location in a patient's body includes a hollow needle having: a lumen configured to receive the guidewire; a body section; and a biased section, the biased section configured to bend relative to the body section, the biased section located on a distal end of the hollow needle. The device includes a catheter having a catheter lumen, the catheter lumen configured to: receive the hollow needle, and maintain the biased section and the body section in relative alignment in a first configuration. The hollow needle, in response to the biased section extending out from the catheter, is configured to bend the biased section relative to the body section in a second configuration.
