    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the use of medical devices for the treatment of vascular conditions. In particular, the present disclosure provides devices and methods for using electrically-induced pressure waves to disrupt vascular blockages. The present disclosure not only provides devices and methods for using electrically-induced pressure waves to disrupt vascular blockages, but the present disclosure also provides devices and method for assisting the guidewire in penetrating an occlusion, devices and method for using a sealable valve in the tip of the balloon catheter to reduce the overall size and diameter of the balloon catheter, thereby allowing the balloon catheter to penetrate smaller size blood vessels and devices. Given the persistence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and peripheral artery disease (PAD), there remains a need for improved therapeutic methods designed not only to reduce vascular blockages in the short term, but also to prevent future complications such as restenosis.

In particular, the present disclosure provides devices and methods for using laser-induced pressure waves to disrupt vascular blockages. The present disclosure not only provides devices and methods for using laser-induced pressure waves to disrupt vascular blockages, but the present disclosure also provides devices and method for assisting the guidewire in penetrating an occlusion, devices and method for using a sealable valve in the tip of the balloon catheter to reduce the overall size and diameter of the balloon catheter, thereby allowing the balloon catheter to penetrate smaller size blood vessels and devices and method that use stationary light absorbing material in lieu of and/or in combination of using liquid medium that flows into a balloon for a balloon catheter. Given the persistence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and peripheral artery disease (PAD), there remains a need for improved therapeutic methods designed not only to reduce vascular blockages in the short term, but also to prevent future complications such as restenosis.

    Abstract translation: 本公开一般涉及医疗装置用于治疗血管病症的用途。 特别地,本公开提供了使用电感应压力波来破坏血管阻塞的装置和方法。 本公开不仅提供了使用电诱导的压力波来破坏血管阻塞的装置和方法,而且本公开还提供了用于辅助导丝穿透闭塞的装置和方法,用于在尖端中使用可密封的阀的装置和方法 以减小气囊导管的总体尺寸和直径,从而允许气囊导管穿透较小尺寸的血管和装置。 鉴于冠状动脉疾病(CAD)和外周动脉疾病(PAD)的持续存在,仍然需要改进的治疗方法,不仅在短期内设计减少血管阻塞,而且还防止未来并发症如再狭窄。
