The medical device also includes a first reinforced region positioned along the body portion, the first reinforced region including a first plurality of filaments and a second reinforced region positioned along the body portion, the second reinforced region including a second plurality of filaments. Further, the first reinforced region is circumferentially spaced from the second reinforced region such that the balloon wall extending between the first and the second reinforced regions is devoid of a filament.
