Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to medical devices for supporting, maintaining, or repairing a lumen, passageway or opening in a living body.
- the invention relates to particular intravascular stents, which are adapted to be implanted into a patient's body lumen, such as a blood vessel or coronary artery, to maintain the patency thereof.
- Carotid artery stenosis is a condition where the carotid arteries, which supply blood to the brain, become narrowed or blocked due to plaque buildup. This can reduce blood flow to the brain and increase the risk of stroke.
- One of the treatments for carotid artery stenosis is carotid stenting which involves inserting a mesh tube (stent) into the vessel to serve as a scaffold that helps prevent the artery from narrowing again.
- a stent is a well-known medical scaffolding device that is often tubular that is used for maintaining the patency of a large variety of lumens of the human body. Modern intravascular stents are available in balloonexpandable and self-expanding varieties.
- stents have been made by different techniques, including forming from wire and machining from a hollow tube. Such machining can be done by photo-chemical etching, laser-cutting, stamping, piercing, or other material-removal processes. Other manufacturing techniques have been proposed, such as vacuum or chemical deposition of material or forming a tube of machined flat material, but those “exotic” methods have not been widely commercialized.
- an implantable prosthesis device that maintains the patency of a vessel with the ability to adapt to the tortuous anatomy of the host by being highly flexible and highly durable w'hile being loadable into a delivery catheter of sufficiently small profile and easily deliverable to a target site in the vessel or duct by having the ability to navigate tortuous ducts or vessels.
- This invention is therefore directed towards providing an effective vascular implant, which is relatively simple in design and structure, and is highly effective for its intended purpose.
- Embodiment of the present disclosure present technological improvements as solutions to one or more of the above-mentioned technical problems recognized by the inventor(s) in conventional systems.
- a stent comprises a plurality of circular structure.
- the plurality of circular structure comprises a first pair of structure and a second pair of structure.
- the first pair of structure and the second pair of structure is made up of a plurality of peaks and a plurality of valleys to form undulating pattern.
- the undulating pattern of the first pair of structure and the second pair of structure is mirror to each other mirror.
- the plurality of circular structure further comprises a plurality of first links.
- the plurality of first links are coupled in between the plurality of the valleys of the first pair of structure and the second pair of structure.
- the plurality of circular structure further comprises a plurality of second links.
- the plurality of second links are configured to couple a first pair of structure and second pair of structure.

- Fig 2 illustrates a illustrates a flat layout view of stent having in accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure
- Fig. 3 illustrates a perspective view of a stent in accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure
- a number relates to an item identified by a line linking the number to the item.
- the number is used to identify a general item at which the arrow is pointing.
- the present disclosure provides technical solutions to the technical problems identified in the prior art.
- the great majority of stents delivered trans luminally and percutaneously to a stenting site in a human body are made of a biologically compatible material which is a metal.
- Many stents are made of stainless steel, and many others are made of nickel titanium shape memory alloy.
- the nickel titanium stents are invariably self-expanding stents that utilise a shape memory effect for moving between a radially compact transluminal delivery disposition and a radially larger stenting disposition after placement in the body.
- conventional stents may have drawbacks such as low flexibility, high radial force, poor wall apposition, and susceptibility to fatigue fracture.
- Fatigue fracture is a failure mode of stents that occurs when they are subjected to repeated mechanical stress cycles at the deployment site in the body lumen. Fatigue fracture can compromise the structural integrity and functionality of the stent and lead to adverse outcomes such as restenosis, thrombosis, or embolization.
- Self-expanding stents are usually manufactured in a ready-to-use compressed form within a catheter-based sheath that functions as a delivery system.
- stents are implanted within a passageway by positioning the stent within the area to be treated and then expanding the stent from a compressed diameter to an expanded diameter.
- the ability of the stent to expand from a compressed diameter makes it possible to thread the stent to the area to be treated through various narrow body passageways while the stent is in the compressed diameter.
- the tubular support structure of the stent contacts and radially supports the inner wall of the passageway.
- the present invention is related to a stent.
- a stent comprising a plurality of circular structure.
- the width of the plurality of the circular structure ranges between 40 mm to 80 mm.
- the plurality of circular structure comprises a first pair of structure and a second pair of structure.
- the first pair of structure and the second pair of structure is made up of a plurality of peaks and a plurality of valleys to form undulating pattern.
- the undulating pattern comprises a thickness range between 0.8 mm to 2 mm.
- the undulating pattern of the first pair of structure and the second pair of structure is mirror to each other mirror.
- the plurality of circular structure further comprises a plurality of first links.
- the plurality of first links are coupled in between the plurality of the valleys of the first pair of structure and the second pair of structure.
- the plurality of circular structure further comprises a plurality of second links.
- the plurality of second links are configured to couple a first pair of structure and second pair of structure
- the plurality of circular structure are coupled with the plurality of the second links to form a radially expandable stent.

- the second diameter of the stent in expandable condition is varies from 10 mm to 14 mm.
- a high visibility radiopaque tantalum markers are provided at the proximal and distal end of the stent.
- the plurality of second links is a U-shaped structure. In another embodiment, the plurality of second links is straight structure.
- the present invention provides a vascular implant that has high resistance to fracture when mechanically cycled at a site in a body lumen.
- the present invention provides a stent having a high degree of flexibility so that it can be advanced through tortuous passageways and can be readily expanded. [0032] The invention provides a stent that exhibits good strength while having the ability to follow the contour of the vessel within which it is implanted.
- the present invention proposes a fatigue fracture resistant vascular implant, such as a self-expanding stent designed to address the limitations of existing stent designs.
- the stent is constructed with a unique spiral cell connection pattern, enhancing its flexibility and allowing for controlled expansion and contraction. This innovative design reduces stress concentrations and minimizes the risk of fatigue-induced fractures.
- the stent design is optimized to resist compression forces while maintaining excellent apposition against the luminal wall. This ensures stable deployment at the site of obstruction, preventing vessel collapse and maintaining an open lumen.
- the stent incorporates a peak-to-peak nodes connection mechanism, which efficiently disperses mechanical forces across the entire stent structure. This feature contributes to the implant's overall mechanical integrity and fracture resistance.
- Figures. 1 illustrates Intraluminal Medical Device having High Fatigue Resistance. It should be noted that Figure 1 are merely examples. A person skilled in the art will recognize many variations, alternatives, and modifications of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
