Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly relates to a medical suturing device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Oval foramen is a channel between left and right ventricles in fetal period, and umbilical vein blood from mother also enters left cardiac cavity of fetus through the channel, and then is distributed to the whole body to provide oxygen and nutrients required for fetal development. If there is no oval foramen, the fetus cannot develop normally, so the oval foramen is a necessary and normal physiological structure. After the child is born, the child can establish normal pulmonary circulation, and the mission of the oval foramen is achieved. With the first cry, the left atrial pressure rises, and the left primary septum oval fossa valve is partially attached to the right secondary septum oval fossa edge, and functional closure occurs, and anatomical complete closure generally takes 5-7 months after birth. About 77.6% of newborn babies' oval foramen will close within 1 year. There are also people whose oval foramen is always not closed. If the oval foramen is not normally closed until 3 years old, it is a real patent foramen ovale.

[0003] Most people's left atrial pressure is greater than the right atrial pressure, so even if there is a patent foramen ovale, the left-to-right shunt through the patent foramen ovale is very small and will not cause obvious symptoms. The blood flow from the patent foramen ovale to the left atrium and then to the whole body in the fetal period is for the normal development of the fetus, and the blood flow again after the baby grows up may cause some problems.

[0004] "atrial septal defect" is similar to patent foramen ovale, but it is a congenital heart malformation. Atrial septal defect is caused by abnormality during embryonic development, and usually has symptoms such as shortness of breath, palpitation, and fatigue. Patent foramen ovale and atrial septal defect are both residual patent foramen ovale between left and right atria, which can cause blood to flow between the two atria.

[0005] However, the size of the hole of patent foramen ovale is generally smaller than that of atrial septal defect (about 4mm for patent foramen ovale and about 8mm for atrial septal defect), and the valve defect hole does not extend vertically to the valve wall, that is, the left atrial valve defect hole and the right atrial valve defect hole are different. The diameter of patent foramen ovale reaching 4mm or more is relatively large, and in the prior art, a closure device is placed to close the patent foramen ovale to achieve the purpose of treatment.

[0006] At present, most of the closure devices on the market are disc-shaped, and the structure contains a large amount of metal. Long-term implantation in the heart may cause the closure device to gradually corrode and release toxic substances due to corrosion of blood and friction caused by heart beating, which may increase the risk of complications. In addition, placing the closure device in the heart may cause an alarm even at various airport and train station security facilities, and many patients are not suitable for acceptance. SUMMARY

Specifically, the lower base 111 and the two take-up blocks 112 enclose the limiting groove 114, which can limit the movement direction of the push wire body 210 relative to the take-up body 110, so that the push wire body 210 moves in the required direction.

[0056] Further, the lower base 111 is further provided with a limiting hole 115, and the push wire body 210 is at least partially arranged in the limiting hole 115. Specifically, the limiting hole 115 and the limiting groove 114 are arranged between the lower base 111 and the rear base 113, and cooperate with the push wire body 210 to prevent the push wire body 210 from being separated from the take-up body 110.

[0057] Specifically, with reference to Figures 7 to 8As shown, the take-up block 112 is provided with a mounting groove 1121 which penetrates in a direction perpendicular to the lower base 111. The two opposite side walls of the mounting groove 1121 have through holes 1124, one end of the take-up needle 120 is connected with a rotating shaft 121 which is rotatably connected with the through holes 1124 on the side walls of the mounting groove 1121. The first side wall 1122 of the mounting groove 1121 can stop the take-up needle 120 so as to make the take-up needle 120 clamped with the end of the suture 300. In the embodiment, after the pusher body 210 moves towards the take-up body 110 and drives the traction needle 220 to penetrate through the atrial septum 400, the pusher body 210 continues to move towards the take-up body 110, when the take-up needle 120 contacts with the end of the suture 300, the take-up needle 120 is forced to rotate away from the end of the suture 300, when the end of the suture 300 is separated from the take-up needle 120, the take-up needle 120 rotates towards the first side wall 1122 due to the gravity, and then the take-up needle 120 is placed in the end loop of the suture 300, the first side wall 1122 of the mounting groove 1121 stops the take-up needle 120 so as to make the take-up needle 120 clamped with the end loop of the suture 300, and then the end of the suture 300 can be taken out of the body by pulling the take-up body 110 through the first guide wire.

[0062] In the embodiment, the traction needle 220 is a straight needle. Figure 9As shown, the pulling needle 220 is provided with a through hole 221. In this embodiment, after the pushing wire body 210 moves towards the collecting wire body 110 and drives the pulling needle 220 to penetrate the atrial septum 400, the pushing wire body 210 continues to move towards the collecting wire body 110, and when the collecting needle 120 contacts the end of the pulling needle 220, the collecting needle 120 is forced to rotate away from the end of the suture 300, thereby causing the collecting needle 120 to sweep across the end loop of the suture 300. When the collecting needle 120 corresponds to the through hole 221, the collecting needle 120 rotates towards the first side wall 1122 due to the action of gravity, and then the collecting needle 120 is placed in the through hole 221 and the end loop of the suture 300. The pushing wire body 210 moves away from the collecting wire body 110, and the collecting needle 120 is deflected under the action of the inner side wall of the through hole 221. The first side wall 1122 of the mounting groove 1121 stops the collecting needle 120 so that the end of the collecting needle 120 abuts against the side of the hook 222 of the pulling needle 220 and maintains a certain contact force, thereby enabling the collecting needle 120 to drive the end loop of the suture 300 to detach from the pulling needle 220, and the collecting needle 120 clamps the end loop of the suture 300.

The take-up portions 522 are arranged inside the take-up main body 110 and correspond to the traction needles 220. In this embodiment, the half-ring portion 521 cooperates with the take-up main body 110 to limit the rotation angle of the take-up needle 120, so that the take-up needle 120 can enter the end loop of the suture 300, drive the end loop of the suture 300 to separate from the traction needle 220, and enable the take-up needle 120 to clamp the end loop of the suture 300. The end of the suture 300 can be pulled out of the body by pulling the take-up main body 110. In addition, the half-ring portion 521 is arranged outside the take-up main body 110 to avoid interference with the second guide wire connected between the take-up main body 110 and the push wire main body 210, and facilitate movement of the push wire main body 210 by the second guide wire.
