Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a minimally invasive interventional medical device and a preparation method thereof, and particularly relates to a degradable hydrogel-coated coil based on a zinc-iron-copper alloy and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Aneurysms, gastrointestinal bleeding, tumors, hypervascular tumors, etc. are common hemorrhagic diseases of arteries. Taking aneurysms as an example, if the aneurysm ruptures, the patient's life may be endangered. In the past, the treatment of such diseases often required surgical methods, which had relatively high risks and traumas, especially for elderly patients. With the progress and development of medical technology, endovascular interventional treatment has become the preferred treatment option for such diseases. Among many treatment options, coil embolization treatment stands out due to its advantages such as safety, reliable implantation, convenient delivery, etc., and is favored by doctors and researchers.
[0003] Currently, coil embolization devices can be divided into bare metal coils and surface-modified coils according to materials and structures. Bare metal coils are the coils with the longest development history and the most commonly used in clinics. The coil body material is platinum-tungsten alloy, which has a self-metal imaging function and good biocompatibility. After being implanted into the lesion, it occludes the lesion site through the thrombus mechanism to achieve the treatment effect. Surface-modified coils are further divided into bioactive surface-coated coils, hydrogel coils, and coils with fiber tufts. Bioactive surface-coated coils refer to coating the surface of bare metal coils with drug coatings having a thrombus-promoting effect, such as prothrombin complex, vitamin K, reptilase, and protamine sulfate, etc.; hydrogel coils refer to having a hydrogel filament core in the coil or a hydrogel coating on the coil surface. After contacting with blood, it expands, increasing the packing property of the device. At the same time, the additional expansion of the hydrogel volume increases the filling rate of the lesion, and the implantation amount of the coil can be reduced; coils with fiber tufts refer to having high-molecular materials such as nylon, polypropylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, and poly(glycolide-co-lactide) (PGLA) embedded outside the coil body. Through the mechanical overlap of microfibers, a dense network is built at the lesion site to change the hemodynamics and achieve the effect of rapid and stable thrombosis. Currently, the coil body materials of all coils used clinically are 100% platinum-tungsten alloy and do not have degradable properties. After the implant reaches the lesion, although blood supply is inhibited due to mechanical occlusion or thrombus mechanism, the implant will remain in the body permanently. For aneurysms, the implantation of metal coils cannot shrink the aneurysm body, so it will continuously compress the nerve tissue outside the aneurysm, and the mass effect cannot be eliminated. The long-term implantation of metal materials may also produce metal toxicity, causing certain damage to the human body, and its long-term safety still needs to be investigated. In addition, the metal artifacts will also affect the image quality during postoperative follow-up, bringing some inconvenience to clinicians.
[0004] At present, there are patent documents mentioning the use of magnesium-based alloys to prepare degradable coils, but the degradation rate of magnesium alloys in the body is too fast, and they may have been completely degraded before the embolization treatment effect is achieved at the lesion site. There are also patent documents mentioning the use of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) sutures to wind and prepare degradable coils, but the physical strength of this kind of coil needs to be investigated and whether it has good imaging effect is still unknown.
[0005] Therefore, to solve the above problems, it is of great significance to develop a medical coil with degradable performance, good biocompatibility, dense packing property, good imaging performance and safety and reliability. Summary of the Invention

The specific advantages are as follows:
[0028] 1. The spring coil of the present invention overcomes technical prejudice and uses zinc alloy as the main material of the spring coil, which can be degraded in the body, and the degraded elements can be used by the human body.
[0029] 2. The zinc alloy coil of the present invention is uniformly mixed with platinum tungsten powder to provide good X-ray development; at the same time, the high hardness tungsten can increase the physical properties of the coil and better form a basket in the aneurysm cavity.

[0038] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.
[0039] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the coil according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 is Figure 1 a schematic cross-sectional structural diagram of; Figure 4 is a schematic cross-sectional structural diagram of the coil of the present invention.
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the degradable hydrogel coil based on zinc-iron-copper alloy provided by the present invention mainly consists of a coil body 10, a hydrogel drug-loading coating 55 and an anti-unwinding wire 20, wherein the coil body 10 is a completely degradable coil body and has a radiopaque microparticle platinum-tungsten powder 30.
[0041] The coil body is made of a zinc-iron-copper alloy material with zinc as the main element. Zinc is an essential trace element in the human body, which participates in cell division and differentiation, can promote human growth and development, regulate the body's immune system, etc., and plays an important role in maintaining health; iron can help the human body maintain the normal function of the immune system and participate in the metabolism of vitamin A and other trace elements; copper can promote the development of human bones and internal organs and maintain the normal blood concentration in the human body. The zinc-iron-copper alloy can be completely degraded in the human body and the degradation products are non-toxic.
[0042] After the zinc, iron and copper raw materials are melted, platinum and tungsten powder are added and mixed evenly, and then stretched into a wire material by a precision machine, and its diameter ranges from 0.02 to 0.2 mm. Then the metal wire is wound into the initial shape of the spring coil by a wire winding machine or a core rod mold, and finally high-temperature shaping is performed by a heat treatment device, and the spring coil can be obtained after annealing. The core rod can be a stainless steel rod with a diameter between 0.05 and 1 mm, and the diameter range is preferably 0.1-0.5 mm; when the metal wire is wound, the gap width between the coils can be 0.0005 inches to 0.01 inches, the winding angle can be 60°-90°, and the preferred gap width range is 0.0008 inches to 0.008 inches, and the preferred winding angle range is 65°-80°; the heat setting temperature range can be 60°-800°C, and the preferred temperature range is 250°-400°C; the heat setting time range can be 3-60 minutes, and the preferred time range is 5-45 minutes. At this time, the platinum tungsten powder is evenly distributed on the surface of the spring coil or in the coil wire, and the diameter of the primary coil is between 0.05-1mm, and the diameter of the secondary spiral coil is between 0.2-5mm. By adjusting the proportion of zinc, iron and copper elements, the softness, degradation, mechanical properties and other characteristics of the spring coil can be adjusted. According to research, the zinc element should account for 58.5%-90.25% of the mass percentage of the entire spring coil, the iron element should account for 1.9%-7.6% of the mass percentage of the entire spring coil, the copper element should account for 0.65%-1.9% of the mass percentage of the entire spring coil, and the platinum tungsten powder should account for 5%-35% of the mass percentage of the entire spring coil. Preferably, the mass percentage of the zinc element is in the range of 68.5%-85%, the mass percentage of the iron element is in the range of 3%-5.8%, the mass percentage of the copper element is in the range of 0.8%-1.55%, and the mass percentage of the platinum tungsten powder is in the range of 10%-25%. The degradation rate of the spring coil increases with the increase of the mass percentage of zinc. In this preferred range, the spring coil is completely degraded within about 3-9 months. In platinum tungsten powder, platinum accounts for 92% of the total mass percentage and tungsten accounts for 8%. In this formula, the mass percentage of zinc element cannot exceed 90.25%. If the zinc content is too high, it will affect the overall degradation performance of the spring coil. The spring coil will degrade too quickly in the body and will not be completely degraded before achieving the therapeutic effect; if the platinum tungsten powder content is too high, there will be more non-degradable metal elements in the spring coil as a whole, and the space-occupying effect may not be eliminated or reduced; if the platinum tungsten powder content is too low, the overall development of the spring coil will be poor under X-rays. The addition of an appropriate amount of platinum tungsten metal can improve the mechanical strength of the spring coil and enhance its development.
[0043] The material of the anti-unwinding wire can be any one of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyisoprene (PI), nitinol alloy, magnesium alloy, etc. The anti-unwinding wire is preferably made of polydioxanone (PDO). The ether bond in the PDO material endows it with good flexibility and tensile strength, and it has good anti-bending fatigue performance. It can be bent multiple times at room temperature without deformation or damage. Using high molecular weight PDO as the anti-unwinding wire, the tensile force it can withstand is greater than 1N, and it is less likely to unwind during the operation. The PDO material also has good biocompatibility and biodegradability, can be naturally degraded in the body, and the PDO material is stable and will not react incompatibly with other component materials of the coil. The overall length of the anti-unwinding wire does not exceed the length of the coil, and the diameter is between 0.01 - 0.3 mm. The head and tail ends of the anti-unwinding wire are connected to the head and tail ends of the coil in a welded form or using an adhesive to form an integral body. The adhesive can be any one or more of adhesives such as polyester, polyurethane, polyamide, α-cyanoacrylate, etc.

The raw material of the hydrogel coating is preferably an acrylamide-based raw material because its structural unit contains an amide group, which is easy to form hydrogen bonds, thus having better water solubility and chemical activity. Dissolve a certain mass of sodium alginate in physiological saline to obtain solution A; dissolve a certain mass of acrylamide-based substance in deionized water, and then sequentially add a certain mass of calcium carbonate and thrombus-promoting drugs for uniform mixing to obtain solution B. Mix solution A and solution B, stir and heat uniformly, and then add an initiator for polymerization reaction to obtain solution C. The hydrogel solution can be obtained after the solution C is naturally cooled. In the overall mixed solution, the mass concentration of sodium alginate is 0.1-3%, preferably 0.1-1.5%; the mass concentration of acrylamide-based substance is 5-40%, preferably 10-30%; the mass concentration of calcium carbonate is 2-6%, preferably 3.5-5%; the mass concentration of thrombus-promoting drug is 0.1-1.5%, preferably 0.5-1%; the mass concentration of initiator is 2-8%, preferably 3-5%. The acrylamide-based substance can be any one of N-isopropylacrylamide and 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid. The thrombus-promoting drug can be any one or more of vitamin K, aminomethylbenzoic acid, hemocoagulase, prothrombin complex, aminocaproic acid, thrombin and freeze-dried human fibrinogen, adrenosem, etamsylate, benyfen, alpha 9SD coagulation factor, etc. The initiator can be any one of ammonium persulfate, hydrogen peroxide, potassium persulfate, benzoyl peroxide, methyl ethyl ketone peroxide, tert-butyl benzoyl peroxide, etc. The temperature range of the heating reaction is 30-80°C, preferably 40-55°C; the polymerization reaction time is 1-5h, preferably 1.5-3h.
[0045] Place the head and tail ends of the anti-unwinding wire into the spring coil body, and connect them with the head and tail ends of the spring coil through welding or gluing technology to form an integral body. Specifically, the anti-unwinding wire is at the central position of the spring coil, so that the force is more uniform during the delivery stage. Then, coat the surface of the spring coil body with the hydrogel drug-loading solution. The coating method can be spraying, brushing, electrostatic coating, dip coating, spin coating or flow coating, etc., and spraying is preferably used, because this method has a more uniform coating and a controllable thickness. The thickness range of the coating is between 0.01 - 1 mm, preferably 0.01 - 0.5 mm, and more preferably 0.01 - 0.1 mm. After coating, dry the coating to form a film, the temperature range is 20 - 230 °C, preferably 30 - 120 °C; the pressure range is 0.001 - 3 bar, preferably 0.002 - 1 bar; the drying time is 2 - 256 h, preferably 6 - 96 h. After the film formation is completed, let it cool naturally to obtain the final spring coil product. As Figure 3 shown, 15 is the aneurysm body, 25 is the spring coil, and 35 is the blood vessel. The expanded spring coil 25 almost fills the aneurysm body 15; Figure 4 in which 45 is the spring coil body and 55 is the hydrogel drug-loading coating.
