Abstract: A method of implanting an aortic stent comprising steps of: putting a main tube on a metal guide wire; moving the main tube along the metal guide wire to the descending aorta, the main tube is constrained by a first cover, and first and second tube bifurcations are branched from the main section; removing the first cover; inserting a second and third metal guide wire through the first tube bifurcation into the ascending aorta and branchiocephalic artery respectively; a first and a second tube branch moving into the ascending aorta and the branchiocephalic artery respectively; inserting a fourth and fifth metal guide wire through the first tube bifurcation into the ascending aorta and branchiocephalic artery respectively; a third and a fourth tube branch moving into left common carotid artery and the left subclavian artery respectively; removing a second cover constraining said tube branches.

Abstract: A tracheotomy tube set is provided with a tracheotomy tube including: a cannula including a connecting member at a proximal end and a bellows member joining to the connecting member, a balloon cuff formed proximal to a distal end of the cannula, a first wing extending from one side of one end of the balloon cuff, a second wing extending from the other side of one end of the balloon cuff, a first wedge balloon formed between the first wing and an insertion section between the balloon cuff and the distal end of the cannula, an opposite second wedge balloon formed between the second wing and the insertion section, and a line having one end communicating with both the first and second wedge balloons; and a fixation device including a split flange, a hole through the split flange, and two slots formed at both sides of the fixation device respectively.

Abstract: An aortic stent includes a main tube including a main section having an outer diameter about equal to an inner diameter of a blood vessel of a descending aorta, and first and second tube bifurcations branched from the main section wherein the first tube bifurcation includes a first membrane for dividing inside of the first tube bifurcation into first and second spaces, and the second tube bifurcation includes a second membrane for dividing inside of the second tube bifurcation into third and fourth spaces; and at least one tube branch retained in the first, second, third or fourth space so that each tube branch has one end retained in the main tube and the other end in fluid communication with artery.

Abstract: An adhesive bandage is provided with a support cup having an annular marking formed on a periphery of an outer surface; a circular cushion member fitted in the support cup; a sliding cup; a sliding disc in the sliding cup and engaged the cushion member, the sliding disc being capable of sliding into the support cup; and a resilient main body including a transparent dome for concealing the sliding cup, the cushion member, the sliding disc, and the support cup, a first adhesive strip extending from a periphery of the dome; a second adhesive strip, opposite the first adhesive strip, extending from the periphery of the dome; a hook and loop fabric fastener on ends of the first and second adhesive strips.

Abstract: A dialysis graft includes an artery connection section having one end connected to an artery; and a vein connection section having both ends connected to two sections of a vein respectively. Diameter of either end of the vein connection section is equal to that of the corresponding section of the vein. The other end of the artery connection section is integrally formed with the vein connection section and communicates therewith. An enlargement for preventing stenosis and thromboses is formed at the connection of the artery connection section and the vein connection section. The dialysis graft further includes lines, ring markings, and markings for providing a visual help to a physician when endovascular therapy is needed.

Abstract: Endovascular stent insertion methods are provided. In one embodiment for end-to-side anastomosis the method includes disposing an endovascular stent in a transparent sheath; inserting a guide wire through a guide needle into first and second blood vessels; sliding the endovascular stent into both the first and second blood vessels along the guide wire and the guide needle to dispose in a position between spaced first and second blood vessels; and pulling the sheath when an intermediate annular marker band of the endovascular stent seen through the transparent sheath is substantially disposed between the first blood vessel and the second blood vessel to release the endovascular stent so that the endovascular stent is adapted to expand to securely hold the facing ends of the first and second blood vessel together.

The other end of the artery connection section is integrally formed with the vein connection section and communicates therewith. An enlargement for preventing stenosis and thromboses is formed at the connection of the artery connection section and the vein connection section. The artery connection section is inclined at an acute angle with respect to the vein connection section at the connection and the enlargement is formed at the obtuse angle side of the connection.
