AI Technical Summary
Existing hemostasis devices with inflatable balloons often experience failures due to weak connection ports and require time-consuming, costly manufacturing processes, which hinder effective promotion of hemostasis at surgical access sites.
The method involves constructing a balloon assembly with a single welded perimeter, forming two or more balloon chambers and a connecting air channel, and folding the structure to create a contiguous air chamber, eliminating the need for a connection port and simplifying the manufacturing process by reducing steps and automating component placement.
This approach enhances the reliability and efficiency of hemostasis devices by eliminating weak connection points and reducing manufacturing complexity, ensuring proper inflation and effective pressure application at vascular access sites.
