Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of steam ablation, and in particular to a testing device for steam ablation equipment. Background Art

[0002] Prostatic hyperplasia is one of the most common urinary diseases in men. Existing minimally invasive treatment technologies for benign prostatic hyperplasia include radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, electroporation ablation, water jet ablation, and thermal steam ablation. Among them, thermal steam ablation treatment technology is to send a steam catheter into the target position and release high-temperature water vapor to achieve the purpose of destroying and ablating the diseased tissue. The latent heat released during the condensation of high-temperature water vapor can cause the cell membrane protein of the diseased tissue to coagulate and denature, thereby causing cell death in the lesion site. The damaged tissue will be absorbed by the surrounding tissue in the following days or weeks, and finally achieve the treatment purpose. However, the inherent characteristics of human tissue will hinder the release of steam from the steam delivery components (such as puncture needles) involved in it. Steam can only be effectively released after breaking through the pressure of human tissue. If the steam pressure is less than the target pressure, the steam cannot be delivered to the target position. If the steam pressure reaches the target pressure but the steam temperature is less than the target temperature, it will not only fail to achieve the ablation effect but also cause harm to the patient. If the temperature exceeds the target temperature, it will also cause unnecessary harm to the patient. How to obtain suitable steam is an existing industry problem. Summary of the invention

In addition, those skilled in the art may combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of the different embodiments or examples, without contradiction.

[0039] According to the test device of the steam ablation device provided by the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the test device), please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The test device includes a main body 100, a pressure regulating assembly 200 and a temperature measuring component 300. A receiving chamber 101 is formed inside the main body 100, and a vent hole 102 and an opening 103 are provided in the main body 100. The vent hole 102 and the opening 103 are both connected to the receiving chamber 101, and the vent hole 102 is suitable for conveying steam to the receiving chamber 101; the pressure regulating assembly 200 is provided at the opening 103, and the pressure regulating assembly 200 is provided with an air leakage port 201. When the gas pressure of the receiving chamber 101 is not less than the set value of the pressure regulating assembly 200, the air leakage port 201 of the pressure regulating assembly 200 is connected to the opening 103; the temperature measuring component 300 is used to obtain the temperature of the receiving chamber 101.

[0040] The test device for the steam ablation device of the present invention can simulate the process of effectively releasing steam after the steam of the steam ablation device breaks through the pressure of human tissue, and the user can judge whether appropriate steam is obtained according to the pressure setting value of the pressure regulating component 200 and the temperature obtained by the temperature measuring component 300. Among them, appropriate steam can be understood as the pressure value that the steam reaches to break through human tissue, and the temperature value that the steam reaches to perform ablation treatment.

[0041] It is understandable that the vent 102 is used to connect the steam delivery component 500 of the steam ablation device, so that the steam output by the steam ablation device can enter the accommodating cavity 101 of the main body 100. In order to ensure the airtightness of the accommodating cavity 101, a sealing buckle 400 (described later) can be provided at the vent 102. The sealing effect of the sealing buckle 400 between the steam delivery component 500 and the vent 102 can ensure that the steam in the accommodating cavity 101 does not leak out, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measured steam pressure.

[0042] It can be understood that the opening 103 is used to connect the pressure regulating component 200, and the pressure regulating component 200 can adjust the set value of the pressure. Only when the pressure of the steam in the accommodating chamber 101 is not less than the set value, the air vent 201 of the pressure regulating component 200 is connected to the opening 103. When the pressure of the steam is less than the set value, the air vent 201 of the pressure regulating component 200 and the opening 103 are not connected.

[0043] It can be understood that the temperature measuring component 300 includes a temperature sensor, wherein the temperature sensor can be one of a temperature measuring thermocouple, an infrared sensor, and a thermal resistance sensor.

[0044] In one embodiment, the temperature measuring element 300 includes a display module, which can be used to display the measured temperature value. The display module can be a digital display screen or a pointer instrument.

[0045] The temperature measuring element 300 is disposed in the accommodating cavity 101 , and may also be disposed on the main body 100 .

[0046] It should be noted that the pressure of different parts of human tissue is different, and the pressure setting value of the pressure regulating component 200 can be 0.8psi-1.2psi. The user can adjust the pressure setting value of the pressure regulating component 200 as needed.

[0047] Taking the test of the steam ablation device for treating prostate hyperplasia as an example, during the test, the steam delivery component of the steam ablation device is inserted into the test device, and after confirming that the air tightness of the test device is good, the steam ablation device is started, and the steam ablation device generates steam, and releases the steam into the receiving cavity 101 through the steam delivery component. As the steam is released, when the steam pressure generated in the receiving cavity 101 is greater than or equal to the human tissue pressure of the prostate (1 psi), the vent 201 of the pressure regulating component 200 is connected to the receiving cavity 101, and the steam in the receiving cavity 101 flows out through the vent 201 to release the steam.

[0048] If the steam is released through the vent 201 and the temperature of the steam measured by the temperature measuring element 300 is about 103°C, it proves that the steam generated by the device is sufficient to break through the pressure of the prostate tissue, and the steam can be effectively released after being inserted into the prostate tissue. In addition, the steam temperature meets the requirements of ablation, and effective ablation treatment can be performed.

[0049] If the steam is released through the vent 201 and the steam temperature measured by the temperature measuring element 300 cannot reach 103° C., it means that the steam generated by the steam ablation device cannot break through the tissue pressure to release steam in the prostate, and the steam ablation device still needs to be debugged.

[0050] It should be noted that the steam temperature of about 103° C. during the effective steam release process under a pressure of 1 psi is only used as an example and is not a specific limitation of the present invention. The test device can adjust different pressures and different temperatures as needed.

[0051] It should be noted that the shorter the time it takes for steam to break through the pressure of human tissue, the less harm it causes to the human body. According to the time it takes for the steam delivery component 500 to release steam to the opening 103 connected to the vent 201 of the pressure regulating component 200, the user can adjust the steam generation speed of the steam ablation device, shorten the time it takes for steam to break through the pressure, and reduce the harm of steam to the human body.

[0052] In one embodiment, the testing device is provided with a timer, which is used to calculate the time for the steam delivery assembly 500 to release steam to the air release port 201 of the pressure regulating assembly 200 and communicate with the opening 103. The user can adjust the steam ablation device according to the intuitive test of the timer, which is convenient for the user to operate.

[0053] According to an embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 2 The pressure regulating assembly 200 includes a valve body 210, a fixing member 220, a valve core 230 and an elastic member 240. The valve body 210 is arranged at the opening 103. The valve body 210 and the fixing member 220 are detachably connected, and there is a regulating cavity between the valve body 210 and the fixing member 220. The valve core 230 is at least partially installed in the regulating cavity. The side wall of the regulating cavity is provided with an air leakage port 201. The valve core 230 moves along the regulating cavity to open and close the air leakage port 201 and make the elastic member 240 expand and contract.

[0054] It can be understood that the valve body 210 constitutes the main body 100 of the pressure regulating assembly 200, and the valve body 210 mainly plays the role of containing and fixing. The valve body 210 can be fixedly connected to the opening 103, and the fixed connection can include an integral connection, or it can be detachably connected to the opening 103. The main function of the fixing member 220 is to be installed on the valve body 210 and can fix the valve core 230, ensuring the stability and reliability of the valve core 230, and also providing the necessary space for the movement of the valve core 230. The valve body 210 and the fixing member 220 are detachably connected, wherein the detachable connection can be a threaded connection, a snap connection, a hinge connection, etc. The valve core 230 can move along the regulating cavity and can control the opening and closing of the air release port 201. The elastic member 240 is a functional part that works by elasticity. It can be retracted and its main function is to provide a rebound force to help the valve core 230 reset and keep the pressure in the regulating cavity stable. It should be noted that the first end of the elastic member 240 is connected to the valve core 230, and the first end of the elastic member 240 can be set at any fixed position in the pressure regulating assembly 200, and the valve core 230 can be displaced relative to the position to make the elastic member 240 expand and contract. The elastic member 240 can be a spring or a flexible material with elasticity.

[0055] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the first end of the valve core 230 is disposed in the regulating chamber, the second end of the valve core 230 extends out of the regulating chamber, and a manual pull ring 250 is disposed at the second end of the valve core 230. It is understandable that the steam in the accommodating chamber 101 will condense into condensed water after use. If the user needs to remove the main body 100 or the pressure regulating assembly 200, it will be very troublesome to handle the condensed water in the accommodating chamber 101. The manual pull ring 250 allows the operator to easily pull the valve core 230, and pulling the valve core 230 can connect the air vent 201 to the opening 103, and the condensed water can leave the test device through the air vent 201.

[0056] Of course, the manual pull ring 250 here is only used as an example rather than a specific limitation of the present invention. In addition to setting the manual pull ring 250 at the second end of the valve core 230, a connecting piece may also be set at the second end of the valve core 230, as long as the connecting piece can facilitate the user to pull the valve core 230 for operation.

[0057] In one embodiment, the side wall of the valve body 210 is provided with a plurality of air leakage holes 201, and the air leakage holes 201 are distributed along the axial direction of the valve body 210. It can be understood that a plurality of air leakage holes can improve the efficiency of drainage, and condensed water can leave the valve body 210 from the plurality of air leakage holes when the user pulls the valve core 230.

[0058] In one embodiment, the valve body 210 is provided with a water guide surface inclined toward the air discharge port 201, so as to facilitate rapid discharge of water from the connecting channel.

[0059] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic member 240 is disposed in the regulating chamber, the first end of the elastic member 240 abuts against the valve core 230, and the second end of the elastic member 240 abuts against the fixing member 220. It is understood that the length of the elastic member 240 can be changed by adjusting the position of the valve core 230, thereby adjusting the set value of the pressure.

[0060] According to an embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a limiting boss 231 is provided at the first end of the valve core 230, a mounting cavity 221 is formed on the side of the fixing member 220 facing the valve body 210, a first end of the elastic member 240 is located in the mounting cavity 221, and a second end of the elastic member 240 abuts against the limiting boss 231. It can be understood that the mounting cavity 221 is formed on the side of the fixing member 220 facing the valve body 210, which can facilitate the installation of the elastic member 240, and the mounting cavity 221 has a limiting effect on the elastic member 240, thereby improving the stability of the elastic member 240. A limiting boss 231 is provided at the second end of the valve core 230, which can form a limiting cooperation with the fixing member 220 or other components to the elastic member 240, thereby ensuring the stability of the movement trajectory of the elastic member 240 in the regulating cavity and improving the reliability of the pressure regulating assembly 200.

[0061] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a fluid channel 211 is formed in the valve body 210, the fluid channel 211 is connected to the opening 103, a step surface 212 is provided at the end of the fluid channel 211, and a valve core 230 seal is provided between the limiting boss 231 and the step surface 212; when the limiting boss 231 abuts against the step surface 212, the fluid channel 211 and the air vent 201 are disconnected; when the limiting boss 231 leaves the step surface 212, the fluid channel 211 and the air vent 201 are connected.

[0062] It is understandable that the fluid channel 211 is connected to the opening 103, and the steam in the accommodating chamber 101 can apply pressure to the valve core 230 through the fluid channel 211. The step surface 212 cooperates with the limiting boss 231. When the limiting boss 231 abuts against the step surface 212, the fluid channel 211 is closed, and the fluid (including steam and condensed water) cannot flow; when the limiting boss 231 leaves the step surface 212, the fluid channel 211 opens, and the fluid can leave the test device. The valve core 230 seal is arranged between the limiting boss 231 and the step surface 212 to ensure the sealing performance. It can prevent the fluid from leaking during the adjustment process, and improve the accuracy and reliability of the adjustment.

[0063] In one embodiment, when the gas pressure of the accommodating chamber 101 is less than the set value of the pressure regulating assembly 200, the valve core 230 and the fluid channel 211 of the valve body 210 are in contact, and the air leakage port 201 is connected to the installation chamber 221. The installation chamber 221 is provided with a guide slope, and the guide slope is inclined toward the air leakage port 201. It can be understood that when the user pulls up the valve core 230, some condensed water may enter the installation chamber 221. Through the guide slope, when the pressure regulating assembly 200 has no external force, the condensed water can spontaneously flow to the air leakage port 201 to prevent water from accumulating in the installation chamber 221.

[0064] According to an embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the first end of the valve body 210 is connected to the main body 100, the second end of the valve body 210 is provided with a connecting part 213, the first end of the valve body 210 and the second end of the valve body 210 are opposite, and the fixing member 220 is threadedly connected to the connecting part 213. It can be understood that the fixing member 220 is threadedly connected to the connecting part 213, so that a stable connection is formed between the valve body 210 and the main body 100 and the fixing member 220, thereby improving the overall stability and reliability of the equipment. The fixing member 220 can be easily installed and disassembled, reducing the difficulty of maintenance and replacement, and improving work efficiency. At the same time, the threaded connection facilitates the adjustment of the distance between the fixing member 220 and the valve body 210, thereby adjusting the pressure setting value of the pressure regulating assembly 200.

[0065] In one embodiment, the outer surface of the fixing member 220 is provided with a plurality of scales (not marked in the figure), and the closer the distance between the end of the fixing member 220 away from the connecting member 213 and the connecting member 213 is, the greater the air pressure value indicated by the corresponding scale. It can be understood that by providing a plurality of scales on the outer surface of the fixing member 220, the size of the air pressure value can be intuitively displayed, so that the operator can conveniently and quickly understand the pressure situation in the regulating chamber, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the regulation. Through the marking of the scale, it is possible to avoid excessive or low pressure due to misoperation or improper adjustment, thereby reducing potential safety hazards.

[0066] In one embodiment, the accommodating chamber 101 is provided with a pressure sensor. It is understandable that the pressure sensor can more accurately measure the pressure in the accommodating chamber 101. The user can determine the pressure setting value of the pressure regulating assembly 200 according to the scale, and can also install a pressure sensor in the accommodating chamber 101 as an auxiliary detection, achieving double protection and ensuring accuracy.

[0067] According to an embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The fixing member 220 is provided with an external thread (not marked in the figure), and the connecting member 213 is provided with an internal thread (not marked in the figure) matching the external thread. It can be understood that by matching the external thread of the fixing member 220 with the internal thread of the connecting member 213, a stable connection can be achieved. In addition, with such a setting, the outer diameter of the fixing member 220 is smaller than that of the connecting member 213, and the size of the fixing member 220 is more suitable for users to adjust by twisting.

[0068] In one embodiment, the valve body 210 is threadedly connected to the main body 100. It is understandable that the threaded connection can realize convenient assembly and disassembly and a stable connection between the valve body 210 and the main body 100.

[0069] In one embodiment, a first sealing ring 270 is disposed between the valve body 210 and the main body 100. It is understood that the first sealing ring 270 can ensure the sealing between the valve body 210 and the main body 100.
