A method and system for manufacturing a multi-lumen device that includes extruding a first layer of material to form an elongate body with a first lumen and a second lumen, the elongate body having a length of at least 100 feet, depositing a mesh layer over the first layer of material along the entire length of the elongate body, and extruding a second layer of material over the mesh layer along at least a portion of the length of the elongate body. The length of at least 100 feet may be considered a first length, the method further comprising cutting the elongate body into a plurality of shortened elongate bodies having a usable length, such as between approximately two feet and approximately six feet.
A method for producing a multi-lumen elongate body, the method comprising:
A method of producing a multi-lumen medical device, the method comprising:
The method of claim 18, wherein the first lumen contains a removable solid core during extruding a layer of first material, depositing a mesh layer, and extruding a layer of second material, the solid core being removed after extruding a layer of second material.
A system for producing a multi-lumen elongate body, the system comprising:
