An embolic protection device provides a filter for removing emboli from a fluid flowing in a vessel of a patient. The filter is mounted on an elongated tubular member that extends along a substantial distal portion of a core guidewire used to place the filter in the appropriate position within the vessel of the patient. The tubular member provides a way to permit rotation of the core guidewire independent of rotation of the filter while also reducing the friction between the core guidewire and the delivery sheath. Improved torque response result. The tubular member may be one or more pieces that may be either coil wire tube or polymeric tubing.
