In some embodiments, the stylet includes a handle and a shaft the shaft having a proximal portion adjacent to the handle, a distal portion adjacent to the proximal portion, and a rounded tip. The proximal portion can be elongated along a longitudinal axis and can have a generally constant diameter. The distal portion can have a tapered section with a diameter that decreases in a distal direction, and a pre-set curve with respect to the longitudinal axis. The rounded tip can have a diameter greater than or equal to the smallest diameter of the distal portion.
