==Overview==
A torquing device is a tool interventional cardiologists use to torque a coronary guidewire and to maintain the tension on the guidewire to preserve the torque and the direction the guidewire.  There is a gradual inadvertent “unwinding” of torque when the human fingers are used to steer a coronary guidewire, and this unwinding can be effectively prevented by this tool.
