Problems solved by technology

In the existing technical field of metal and non-metallic prostate stents, by effectively supporting the urethra of the prostate, the obstruction of the bladder outlet can be solved, autonomous urination can be realized, and the quality of life of patients can be greatly improved and infection caused by catheterization can be prevented. However, through clinical practice, it is found that there are disadvantages such as poor urination caused by stent displacement, urethral irritation symptoms, poor comfort, and cumbersome operations by doctors.
[0003] Accurate placement of the stent is particularly important in clinical applications. In the current technical field, the fixation device in the bladder is usually fixed with a fluid injection balloon. The internal movement of the bladder will cause the stent to shift, affect the effective support of the stent, and cause poor urination; 2. The balloon may rupture due to long-term placement of the balloon, and the liquid leakage in the balloon may cause the stent to slip out and other influencing factors; 3. Because there is a certain distance between the urination hole of the balloon and the neck of the bladder, it affects the emptying of bladder urine: 4. The liquid injection balloon increases the contact surface with the bladder triangle, which can stimulate the bladder to a certain extent and reduce its pressure. Comfort; 5. Using the balloon structure requires the use of a two-way valve device (filling device) to increase the complexity of the structure and operation
[0004] In the description of patent application number 2017205697891, the catheter set of the urethral stent system includes a first silicone catheter, a second silicone catheter and a guide tube, the tail end of the first silicone catheter is connected to the head end of the second silicone catheter, and the second silicone catheter The tail end of the stent is connected to the guide tube through the connector; both the first silicone catheter and the second silicone catheter have built-in support springs, the structure is complex, and the diameter of the larger Fr24 is difficult to place, which may easily cause urethral mucosal damage; , the stent may be displaced when the balloon is taken out; in addition, the connecting wire is wrapped around the wall of the stent tube, which will reduce the inner diameter of the stent tube and affect the patency of urination; the designed triangular soft anchor is large, and the connecting wire There is a rough surface formed by externally wound fixing wires and knots on the surface of the soft anchor, which will cause a long-term foreign body sensation after being inserted into the urethra, and the patient will be very painful

Embodiment 1

[0039] Such as Figure 1-6 As shown, a urethral stent is used to support the prostatic urethra, including a stent tube 1, the stent tube 1 is a urination channel, and the head end of the urination channel wall of the stent tube 1 is formed in a natural state A petal-shaped sphere protruding radially outward, the petal-shaped spherical head end 11 is provided with at least one large gap drainage hole 111 connected with the urination channel of the stent tube, when the tail of the stent tube 1 is pulled , the flower-shaped sphere is straightened, and forms a straight tubular structure with the remaining walls of the stent tube;

[0040] Such as figure 1 As shown, the petal-shaped spherical head end 11 is configured as multiple petals, and a plurality of drainage channels 111 with large gaps are formed between adjacent petals.

[0041] Such as Figure 1-6As shown, the shown urethral stent also includes a triangular soft anchor 2; the soft anchor 2 is connected to the tail end ...

Embodiment 2

[0049] Such as Figure 2-3 , a urethral stent implantation system includes the urethral stent and the stent implantation device in Embodiment 1, the stent implantation device includes a support tube 4, an adjustable limit device 42 and a support tube handle 43, the support tube 4 The top end is inserted in the support pipe 1.

[0050] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the inner core tube 4 is not provided with a balloon on the corresponding part of the catheter head 11. Therefore, compared with the prior art, firstly, there is no need to use the balloon to drive the stent to be pulled to the bladder neck for positioning. Secondly, after the stent is placed, the balloon is displaced by gravity due to gravity, resulting in poor urination; the urine inlet of the stent is lowered to the bladder neck, making urination more thorough and reducing the frequency of urination; at the same time, the balloon-free structure reduces the contact between the stent and human tissue. The contact ar...

Abstract

The invention discloses a urethral stent and a placement system. The urethral stent is mainly used for supporting prostate urethral obstructions and achieving automatic urination. The urethral stent is composed of a prostate urethral stent body, connecting lines, a soft anchor, a taking line, an adjustable limit device, a supporting rod and a handle. The prostate urethral stent body is made of medical silicone materials, the head end of the prostate urethral stent body is of a petal-shaped spherical structure, the tail end of the prostate urethral stent body is connected with the soft triangular anchor through the connecting lines, the ends of the connecting lines are directly fixed into holes in the two sides of the tail of the stent body through viscose and penetrate through a middle hole in the soft anchor, the soft anchor is fixed to the connecting lines through viscose, a pulling line does not need to be wound around the outer pipe wall of the stent body but is sleeved with a pulling line fixing ring and fixed by viscose, and therefore the function of fixing the stent body is achieved. The supporting rod is inserted in a stent pipe, and the outer wall of the supporting rod ismarked with scales; the adjustable limit device is arranged on the outer wall of the supporting rod. Compared with metal and nonmetal stents of the same type, the silicone prostate urethral stent is simpler in structure and more convenient and safer to operate. The petal-shaped spherical structure at the head end of the stent pipe is placed in the human body and then naturally expands at the neckof the bladder to prevent the stent body from misaligning. The petal-shaped structure can obviously improve the passability of urine and reduce the contact area of a triangular area of the bladder, and the inner discomfort of a patient is alleviated.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a urethral stent and an implantation system, belonging to the technical field of medical devices. Background technique: [0002] Bladder outlet obstruction and urinary retention caused by benign and malignant lesions of the prostate are common clinical diseases and frequently-occurring diseases. In clinical practice, urinary catheterization and drainage are often used to relieve the obstruction, which brings great inconvenience and pain to the life of the patients, and at the same time easily causes their own infection and nosocomial cross-infection. In the existing technical field of metal and non-metallic prostate stents, by effectively supporting the urethra of the prostate, the obstruction of the bladder outlet can be solved, autonomous urination can be realized, and the quality of life of patients can be greatly improved and infection caused by catheterization can be prevented. However, through clinical practice, it is f...
