1. A catheter comprising:
a substantially tubular inner core forming an inner hollow lumen;
a first inflation sleeve comprising a first inflation lumen therethrough and extending a majority of the length of the tubular inner core;
a wound wire mesh securing the first inflation sleeve to an outer surface of the tubular inner core; and
a balloon mechanically affixed at respective proximal and distal ends via a corresponding tie-layer to a distal portion of an outer surface of the tubular inner core without altering an interior surface of the inner hollow lumen; and the balloon is in fluidic communication with the first inflation lumen of the first inflation sleeve;
wherein the wound wire mesh secures a second inflation sleeve to the outer surface of the tubular inner core, the wound wire mesh comprises wires that run individually over and under the first inflation sleeve and the second inflation sleeve thereby separating the first inflation sleeve from the second inflation sleeve.
