Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a power system of a blood pumping device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The heart is an important organ for providing power for blood circulation of the human body. It is divided into left and right parts, each of which contains a ventricle and an atrium. The left ventricle and the right ventricle are blocked by the interventricular septum, and the left atrium and the right atrium are blocked by the interatrial septum. The blood flow direction between the left atrium and the left ventricle is regulated by the mitral valve, and a healthy mitral valve ensures that oxygen-rich blood flows from the left atrium to the left ventricle, and then is pumped into the aorta by the left ventricle. The blood flow direction between the right atrium and the right ventricle is regulated by the tricuspid valve, and the tricuspid valve ensures that the venous blood rich in carbon dioxide flows from the right atrium to the right ventricle, and then is pumped to the pulmonary artery by the right ventricle.

[0003] High-risk heart surgery patients and heart failure patients have decreased heart pumping capacity and insufficient aortic blood supply, which can easily lead to damage to the organs of the whole body. Heart failure is a serious threat to human life, and about 1 / 5 of heart disease patients worldwide will eventually develop heart failure each year. The incidence of heart failure in China currently reaches 0.9%, and the 5-year mortality rate exceeds 60%. For a long period of time, the number of patients with advanced heart failure will be much larger than the number of donors who can provide heart transplants. The blood pumping device not only saves the lives of patients, but also provides great help for patients to find suitable donors or to fight for operation time.

[0004] However, the power system of the current blood pumping device has a temporary stagnation during the period of alternating blood extraction and blood infusion, which can cause the blood driven by the blood pumping device to flow in a pulsatile manner, and the unsmooth blood flow causes a burden to the patient's body. SUMMARY

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] This application provides a power system for a blood pumping device, which solves the problem of uneven blood flow driven by the blood pumping device.

[0031] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and the general idea is as follows:

[0032] In this embodiment of the invention, the power system includes a pump assembly and a tubing. The pump assembly includes a first pump and a second pump. The tubing is provided with pumping vessels corresponding one-to-one with the first and second pumps. The first and second pumps are respectively connected to the ends of their corresponding pumping vessels. The first and second pumps work alternately, such that during the brief stagnation period of blood draw and transfusion, the second pump is in a pumping state. Conversely, during the stagnation period of the second pump, the first pump is in a pumping state. The first and second pumps fill the stagnation gaps, preventing blood from flowing in a pulsating manner and preventing the burden on the patient's body caused by poor blood flow.

[0033] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0034] Example:

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a power system for a blood pumping device, the power system comprising: a pump assembly and a tubing body;

[0036] The pump assembly includes: a first pump 1 and a second pump 2;

[0037] The tube body is provided with pump tubes that correspond one-to-one with the first pump 1 and the second pump 2.

[0038] The first pump 1 and the second pump 2 are respectively connected to the end of the corresponding pump blood vessel;

[0039] The first pump 1 and the second pump 2 work alternately, so that when the first pump 1 is in a brief stagnation period between blood drawing and blood transfusion, the second pump 2 is in a blood pumping state; conversely, when the second pump 2 is in a stagnation period, the first pump 1 is in a blood pumping state. The first pump 1 and the second pump 2 fill the stagnation period with each other, avoiding blood flowing in a pulsatile manner and preventing the burden on the patient's body caused by poor blood flow.

[0040] The first pump 1 and the second pump 2 are electrically connected to the controller, and the controller controls the first pump 1 and the second pump 2 to work alternately to fill the stagnation.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the head end of the tube is inserted into the femoral artery, passes through the aorta, and enters the left ventricle. Each pumping vessel has an inlet in the left ventricle and an outlet in the tube wall inside the aorta.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the pump tube is equipped with a one-way valve, which includes a valve plate 3 and a wedge-shaped sealing ring 4.

[0043] The bottom end of the valve plate 3 is rotatably connected to the pump blood vessel wall below the outlet;

[0044] The sealing ring 4 is disposed inside the outlet. When the valve plate 3 is closed, it fits against the inner side of the sealing ring 4, and the circumference of the valve plate 3 is greater than the outer circumference of the sealing ring 4.

[0045] During the blood pumping process, the valve plate 3 adheres to the sealing ring 4 under the action of blood pressure, thereby closing the outlet and pumping blood out of the left ventricle.

[0046] During the blood transfusion, valve plate 3 flips inward under the action of blood pressure, blocking the pump blood vessel below the outlet and opening the outlet, thereby allowing blood to be input into the aorta.

[0047] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the first pump 1 and the second pump 2 are respectively connected to their corresponding pump vessels through the blood chamber 5.

[0048] The blood chamber 5 is provided with a diaphragm 6 that separates the pump assembly from the pump vessel; this avoids excessive shearing force on red blood cells caused by exposed metal inside the pump assembly, and avoids the risk of hemolysis due to red blood cell rupture; the diaphragm 6 separates the pump assembly from the pump vessel, allowing the pump to be filled with gas or a liquid with good flowability, reducing the pump's resistance load and improving efficiency.

[0049] The first pump 1 and the second pump 2 are one or more of diaphragm pumps, peristaltic pumps and balloon pumps.

[0050] In summary, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0051] In this embodiment of the invention, the power system includes a pump assembly and a tubing. The pump assembly includes a first pump and a second pump. The tubing is provided with pumping vessels corresponding one-to-one with the first and second pumps. The first and second pumps are respectively connected to the ends of their corresponding pumping vessels. The first and second pumps work alternately, such that during the brief stagnation period of blood draw and transfusion, the second pump is in a pumping state. Conversely, during the stagnation period of the second pump, the first pump is in a pumping state. The first and second pumps fill the stagnation gaps, preventing blood from flowing in a pulsating manner and preventing the burden on the patient's body caused by poor blood flow.
