Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ventricular septal perforation occlusion devices, specifically a novel ventricular septal perforation occlusion device. Background Technology

[0002] Ventricular septal perforation (also known as ventricular septal defect) is a congenital heart defect. It is a common type of congenital heart disease. The human heart consists of four chambers (left atrium, left ventricle, right atrium, and right ventricle). There should be a complete ventricular septum between the left and right ventricles. If there is an opening in the ventricular septum, it is called a ventricular septal defect. A ventricular septal perforation occluder is a medical device used in interventional cardiac treatment. It is mainly used to close ventricular septal defects (VSD) or other similar heart structural defects. Its function is to place the occluder at the defect site through catheter technology to prevent abnormal blood flow, thereby improving the patient's cardiac function.

[0003] For example, a radiopaque and biodegradable ventricular septal defect occluder with publication number CN205697888U includes a first disc-shaped mesh, a tubular mesh, and a second disc-shaped mesh connected in sequence. The first disc-shaped mesh also has a closing line that passes through all the annular mesh lines, forming a continuous mesh surface on the outer surface of the first disc-shaped mesh after closing. The second disc-shaped mesh has a connector for closing the mesh surface. The connector is formed by thermally melting the mesh body at the center of the inner mesh surface of the second disc-shaped mesh. The materials of the first disc-shaped mesh, the tubular mesh, the second disc-shaped mesh, and the connector are radiopaque and biodegradable materials. The closing line structure of this occluder increases the support and resilience of the occluder, reduces manufacturing difficulty, and lowers manufacturing costs. This invention not only ensures that the radiopaque and biodegradable filaments constituting the disc-shaped mesh are firmly connected together, but also ensures that the connector is firmly connected to the radiopaque and biodegradable filaments constituting the disc-shaped mesh, making it less prone to detachment.

[0004] The aforementioned patent proposes that the connector can be firmly connected to the developable and biodegradable filaments that make up the disc-shaped mesh, making it less likely to fall off and convenient to use. However, during the use of the perforation plug, because the plug is delivered to the defect through the conduit, the contact between the defect and the plug is not tight enough, resulting in a poor sealing effect and affecting its use.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a novel ventricular septal perforation occluder to address the aforementioned problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel ventricular septal perforation occluder to solve the problem mentioned in the background art where, due to the occluder being delivered to the defect site via a catheter, the contact between the occluder and the defect site is not tight enough, resulting in a poor sealing effect and affecting its use.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel ventricular septal perforation occluder, comprising a fixed post and a first disc-shaped mesh disposed on the outside of the fixed post. The outside of the fixed post is also provided with a connecting waist, which is connected to the first disc-shaped mesh. A second disc-shaped mesh is disposed on the side of the connecting waist away from the first disc-shaped mesh, and an end is disposed on one side of the second disc-shaped mesh. The fixed post, the first disc-shaped mesh, the connecting waist, the second disc-shaped mesh, and the end are delivered to the defect site using a conduit, and the defect is sealed by means of the first and second disc-shaped meshes.

[0008] A biofilm is provided on the inner side of the first disc-shaped mesh, and a protective coating is provided on the surface of the first disc-shaped mesh. A constriction portion is provided at the center of the first disc-shaped mesh. The constriction portion allows the first disc-shaped mesh to be placed outside the fixing post, and the biofilm can contact the defective part, so that the first disc-shaped mesh is tightly connected to the defective part.

[0009] Preferably, the first and second disc-shaped meshes have the same structure, both made of a shape memory alloy material, and can be restored after being compressed and unfolded.

[0010] Preferably, the protective coating comprises a polyurethane coating, a heparin coating, and a polytetrafluoroethylene coating disposed sequentially from the outside to the inside on the surface of the first disc-shaped mesh. The polyurethane coating has a certain degree of flexibility, the heparin coating can reduce the risk of thrombosis, and the polytetrafluoroethylene coating can reduce friction.

[0011] Preferably, a polyurethane membrane is provided on the outer wall of the connecting waist section, and the polyurethane membrane has good biocompatibility.

[0012] Preferably, the surfaces of the first and second disc meshes are smooth, and one side of the second disc mesh is provided with an end, the surface of which is provided with a threaded hole.

[0013] Preferably, the first and second disc-shaped meshes are symmetrically distributed about the center line connecting the waist.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. The device consists of a fixed post, a first disc mesh, a connecting waist section, a second disc mesh, and an end cap. A small screw at the front end of the transmission cable is used to connect the end cap, allowing the entire compressed occluder to be transmitted through a pipeline to the heart defect site. The first and second disc meshes are used for occlusion, effectively sealing the defect site. The biofilm further enhances the sealing performance by contacting the heart defect site, facilitating occlusion. Simultaneously, the polyurethane coating provides flexibility, effectively reducing friction with the heart defect site and thus lowering the risk of failure. Attached Figure Description
