[0081] Reference is made to Figures 1A-1C , which illustrates a schematic view of a specific embodiment of a medical device for distracting a target site according to the present application. As shown in the specific embodiment of Figures 1A-1C , the medical device 100 for distracting a target site comprises a stent body 110 (in a specific embodiment, the medical device 100 is constituted by the stent body 110), which comprises a first side portion 112, an intermediate portion 114, and a second side portion 116. The intermediate portion 114 connects the first side portion 112 and the second side portion 116, and is disposed between the first side portion 112 and the second side portion 116. The medical device 100 has a distraction mechanism, which causes the first side portion 112 and the second side portion 116 to be in a first distracted state under a first condition (see Figure 1B , which shows the distracted state of the medical device 100 under the first condition), and causes the intermediate portion 114 to be in a second distracted state under a second condition (see Figure 1C , which shows the distracted state of the medical device 100 under the second condition). In Figure 1B the specific embodiment shown, the intermediate portion 114 does not assume the second distracted state under the first condition.
[0082] In a specific embodiment, a user can cause the stent body 110 of the medical device 100 to be in a contracted state (see Figure 1AThe medical device 100 is moved to place it in a target position in the target site. Then, the user can first place the stent body 110 in the first condition, so that the first side portion 112 and the second side portion 116 are in the first expanded state, and the middle portion 114 is in the contracted state. At this time, because the shape of the stent body 110 is similar to a dumbbell shape, the stent body 110 can be stabilized in the target position in the target site by the first side portion 112 and the second side portion 116 in the first expanded state, so that the stent body 110 can be prevented from sliding in the target site. Then, the user can again place the stent body 110 in the second condition, so that the middle portion 114 is in the second expanded state, and the expanding operation is completed. When the stent body 110 is in the second condition, the first side portion 112, the middle portion 114, and the second side portion 116 are all in the expanded state. It should be understood that the two-stage expanding method (the first stage is the dumbbell-shaped expanding state in the first condition, and the second stage is the full expanding state in the second condition) of the medical device for expanding the target site according to the present application can prevent the medical device from sliding in the target site during the expanding process, so that the positioning error can be avoided.
[0083] In an embodiment, the expanding mechanism of the medical device 100 is that the first side portion 112 is made of a first memory metal, the second side portion 116 is made of a second memory metal, and the middle portion 114 is made of a third memory metal. The first memory metal and the second memory metal return to their original shapes (the original shapes are the expanded states) in the first condition, so that the first side portion 112 and the second side portion 116 are in the first expanded state. The third memory metal returns to its original shape (the original shape is the expanded state) in the second condition, so that the middle portion 114 is in the second expanded state. The third memory metal does not return to its original shape in the first condition, so that the middle portion 114 is not in the second expanded state in the first condition.
[0084] In an embodiment, the medical device 100 is first in the first condition and then in the second condition during the expanding process. In an embodiment, the first condition is that the stent body 110 reaches a first temperature, and the second condition is that the stent body 110 reaches a second temperature. The first temperature is lower than the second temperature. In an embodiment, the stent body 110 can be first brought to the first temperature and then brought to the second temperature by perfusion of a liquid. It should be understood that, when the medical device for expanding a target site according to the present application is used, the stent body can be brought to the first temperature or the second temperature by energization or other methods according to requirements, instead of only by perfusion of a liquid.
[0085] Please refer to Figures 2A-2CThe illustration depicts a schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of a medical device for opening a target site according to this application. For example... Figures 2A-2C In the illustrated embodiment, the medical device 200 for expanding a target area includes a balloon body 210 and an inflation section 220. The balloon body 210 includes a first side portion 212, a middle portion 214, and a second side portion 216. The middle portion 214 connects the first side portion 212 and the second side portion 216, and is disposed between the first side portion 212 and the second side portion 216. The inflation section 220 is connected to the first side portion 212 of the balloon body 210, thus allowing fluid (e.g., gas or liquid) to be injected into the balloon body 210. Figures 2A-2C In the illustrated embodiment, the medical device 200 also has a spreading mechanism that, under a first condition, positions the first side 212 and the second side 216 in a first spread-out state (see [link]). Figure 2B It shows the medical device 200 in an open state under a first condition, and the opening mechanism causes the intermediate portion 214 to be in a second open state under a second condition (see [reference]). Figure 2C It shows the expanded state of the medical device 200 under the second condition. Figure 2B In the embodiment shown, the middle portion 214 will not be in a second open state under the first condition.
[0086] In one specific embodiment, the user can keep the balloon body 210 of the medical device 200 in a retracted state (see [link]). Figure 2A The diagram illustrates how, when the medical device 200 is in a contracted state, it is moved to position it at a target location within the target area. Next, the user can first position the balloon body 210 in a first condition, where the first side 212 and second side 116 are in a first expanded state, while the middle portion 214 is in a contracted state. Since the balloon body 210 is shaped like a dumbbell, the first side 212 and second side 216, in their first expanded state, can stabilize the balloon body 210 at the target location within the target area, thus preventing it from sliding within the target area. Then, the user can position the balloon body 210 in a second condition, where the middle portion 214 is in a second expanded state, thereby completing the incision procedure. When the balloon body 210 is in the second condition, the first side 212, middle portion 214, and second side 216 are all in an expanded state. It should be understood that the two-stage opening method of the medical device used in this application for opening the target area (the first stage is a dumbbell-shaped opening state under the first condition, and the second stage is a fully opened state under the second condition) can prevent the medical device from sliding within the target area during the opening process, thus avoiding positioning errors.
[0087] In one embodiment, the medical device 200 is configured to have a first side 112 having a first density, a second side 116 having a second density, and a middle portion 114 having a third density. The third density is different from the first density and the second density. In one embodiment, the third density is greater than the first density and the second density. The first condition is when the interior of the balloon body is at a first inflation pressure, and the second condition is when the interior of the balloon body is at a second inflation pressure. The first inflation pressure is less than the second inflation pressure. Thus, when the balloon body 210 is in the first condition, the first side 212 and the second side 116 are in a first expanded state, and the middle portion 214 is in a collapsed state. When the balloon body 210 is in the second condition, the first side 212, the middle portion 214, and the second side 216 are in an expanded state. In one embodiment, the first density is equal to the second density. In one embodiment, the medical device 200 is first in the first condition and then in the second condition during the expansion process.
[0088] In one embodiment, the medical device 200 is configured to have a first side 112 having a first thickness, a second side 116 having a second thickness, and a middle portion 114 having a third thickness. The third thickness is different from the first thickness and the second thickness. In one embodiment, the third thickness is greater than the first thickness and the second thickness. The first condition is when the interior of the balloon body is at a first inflation pressure, and the second condition is when the interior of the balloon body is at a second inflation pressure. The first inflation pressure is less than the second inflation pressure. Thus, when the balloon body 210 is in the first condition, the first side 212 and the second side 116 are in a first expanded state, and the middle portion 214 is in a collapsed state. When the balloon body 210 is in the second condition, the first side 212, the middle portion 214, and the second side 216 are in an expanded state. In one embodiment, the first thickness is equal to the second thickness. In one embodiment, the medical device 200 is first in the first condition and then in the second condition during the expansion process.
[0089] In one embodiment, the medical device for expanding a target site according to the present application is a vascular expansion device for use in a blood vessel (i.e., the target site), such as for expanding an arterial blood vessel or for expanding a venous blood vessel. It should be understood, however, that the medical device for expanding a target site according to the present application is not limited to being a vascular expansion device. That is, the medical device according to the present application is not limited to use in a blood vessel, but can be used to expand any site in the body as desired. Of course, the medical device for expanding a target site according to the present application will have different sizes depending on the size of the target site.
[0090] Referring to Figure 3 , which illustrates a schematic view of one embodiment of a medical device for expanding a target site according to the present application.

The balloon body 310 includes a first side portion 312, a middle portion 314, and a second side portion 316. The middle portion 314 is connected to the first side portion 312 and the second side portion 316, and is disposed between the first side portion 312 and the second side portion 316. The gas inlet 320 is connected to the first side portion 312 of the balloon body 310, so that fluid (e.g., gas or liquid) can be introduced into the balloon body 310 through the gas inlet 320. The medical device 300 also has a dilation mechanism that causes the first side portion 312 and the second side portion 316 to assume a first dilated state (see, e.g., FIG. 2, which shows the dilated state of the medical device 200 under a first condition) under a first condition, and causes the middle portion 314 to assume a second dilated state (see, e.g., FIG. 3, which shows the dilated state of the medical device 200 under a second condition) under a second condition. The middle portion 314 does not assume the second dilated state under the first condition. Figure 2B Figure 2C
[0091] In some embodiments, the medical device 300 can include a plurality of balloon bodies 310, each having a first side portion 312, a middle portion 314, and a second side portion 316. The plurality of balloon bodies 310 can be connected to each other in series, and can be connected to the gas inlet 320. The plurality of balloon bodies 310 can be dilated simultaneously or sequentially. In some embodiments, the medical device 300 can include a plurality of gas inlets 320, each connected to a respective balloon body 310. The plurality of gas inlets 320 can be connected to a common fluid source (e.g., a gas source or a liquid source). The plurality of balloon bodies 310 can be dilated simultaneously or sequentially. Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the first side portion 312 has first auxiliary bodies 312A, 312B, the second side portion 316 has second auxiliary bodies 316A, 316B, and the middle portion 314 has third auxiliary bodies 314A, 314B. The first auxiliary bodies 312A, 312B have a first elastic coefficient, the second auxiliary bodies 316A, 316B have a second elastic coefficient, and the third auxiliary bodies 314A, 314B have a third elastic coefficient. The expansion mechanism of the medical device 300 is that the third elastic coefficient of the third auxiliary bodies 314A, 314B is greater than the first elastic coefficient of the first auxiliary bodies 312A, 312B, and the third elastic coefficient of the third auxiliary bodies 314A, 314B is greater than the second elastic coefficient of the second auxiliary bodies 316A, 316B. In this way, the medical device 300 can first be in the first condition and then in the second condition during the expansion process. In an embodiment, the first auxiliary bodies 312A, 312B, the second auxiliary bodies 316A, 316B, and the third auxiliary bodies 314A, 314B can be woven bodies. In an embodiment, the first auxiliary bodies 312A, 312B can be connected to the third auxiliary bodies 314A, 314B, respectively, and the second auxiliary bodies 316A, 316B can be connected to the third auxiliary bodies 314A, 314B, respectively.

It should be understood that the extension direction of the first auxiliary bodies 312A, 312B can be parallel to the surface extension direction 318 of the balloon body 310 or can be perpendicular to the surface extension direction 318 of the balloon body 310, but not limited thereto. The extension direction of the second auxiliary bodies 316A, 316B can be parallel to the surface extension direction 318 of the balloon body 310 or can be perpendicular to the surface extension direction 318 of the balloon body 310, but not limited thereto.
