Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of medical devices, and specifically relates to a medical device that is easy to implant. Background Art

[0002] With the extension of human life expectancy and the aging of society, aortic valve disease has become an increasingly common valvular disease. Globally, the number of patients with aortic valve disease increased from 42.9 million in 2015 to 46.1 million in 2019. It is estimated that by 2025, the combined number of AS and AR will reach 52 million worldwide, with a compound annual growth rate of 2.0% from 2019 to 2025.

[0003] TAVR involves transcatheter placement of a fully assembled artificial aortic valve into the affected aortic valve via a vascular / cardiac apex approach, functionally replacing the aortic valve and benefiting patients who are not suitable for traditional surgical treatment. However, problems are often encountered during TAVR procedures. For example, when implanting a device with a clamp, the delivery system struggles to ensure that the implant is aligned with the center of the aortic valve, making it difficult to accurately position the clamp and release the implant.

[0004] Patent CN202211085174.3 discloses a valve delivery system that can be stably released and recovered, including: an implant device, a delivery catheter, a release device and a restraint device; the restraint device can move away from and move close to the release device in a restricted manner, and the release device is connected to the delivery catheter; when the implant device is pre-installed, the implant device and the restraint device are detachably connected, and the distal end of the implant device and the restraint device are confined within the release device; the design defect of this scheme is that: although the release problem of the implant device is solved, the centering problem before release is still unavoidable. Since the delivery catheter is close to the blood vessel wall to enter the target position, if a centering device is not provided, it is difficult for the clamp to enter the bottom of the aortic sinus, which may easily lead to surgical failure.

[0005] Therefore, technicians in this field are committed to developing a medical device that is easy to implant, mainly to solve the following problems: first, the implant is difficult to place in the center of the valve, and the clamp is difficult to accurately enter the sinus; second, the centering device scrapes the blood vessel wall and leaves wounds, causing aortic dissection; third, the setting of the centering adjustment device affects the function of other components.

[0021] In one embodiment, the conveying system further includes a control member connected to the restriction member; and the elastic member can be compressed under the operation of the control member, and the fitting member is separated from the restriction unit after escaping the restriction space.

[0036] In one embodiment, the centering device is a centrally symmetrical structure in any state.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:

[0038] 1. In the prior art, a valve prosthesis with a clamp is used to replace the aortic valve of the heart. It has good stability and good implantation effect. However, since the target position of the clamp is the bottom of the aortic sinus, the surgeon needs to align the valve prosthesis with the valve center first during operation. However, the delivery system that enters along the aortic wall does not have a device for centering, which makes it difficult for the clamp to enter the target position and the failure rate of the operation is high. The technical solution of the present application avoids the above problems. The implant of the present application includes a valve prosthesis and a centering device. The centering device not only solves the centering problem of the valve prosthesis, but also prevents or solves the problem of aortic dissection. The centering device includes a supporting part and a connecting part. The connecting part and the limiting part arranged outside the second delivery tube are in a detachable connection. During the release of the centering device, the supporting part gradually fits against the blood vessel wall, and the connecting part is relative to the limiting part. Rotation, after the supporting part is completely in contact with the blood vessel wall, the two ends of the connecting part are respectively connected to the supporting part and the limiting part, and the second delivery tube is sleeved in the limiting part so that it can be in the center of the centering device, so the valve prosthesis can face the center of the aortic valve, and operating the delivery system to rotate the valve prosthesis can make the clamping part face the bottom of the aortic sinus, so as to realize the function of making the clamping part smoothly enter the target position; on the other hand, after the valve prosthesis is implanted, the centering device will be separated from the delivery system, which can avoid the problem of aortic dissection caused by the scratching of the supporting part and the blood vessel wall, causing the rupture of the blood vessel wall. Or, if the patient already has a dissection problem, the centering device can close the dissection channel after implantation, and solve the aortic dissection problem while replacing the valve leaflet. In summary, the structural design of the centering device is ingenious, the clinical effect is good, the success rate of the operation is improved, and it has great promotion value.

[0039] 2. Different from the prior art, the connecting part includes two connecting units, namely the first connecting unit and the second connecting unit, and the limiting part also includes the first limiting unit and the second limiting unit respectively connected to the first connecting unit and the second connecting unit, thereby forming a first joint and a second joint. During the release process of the centering device, the design of the first joint and the second joint ensures that the connecting part will not restrict the expansion of the supporting part when it is released to a natural state, and the axial length of the connecting unit will also change when it is released. The design of the first joint and the second joint enables the connecting unit to restore its natural state while rotating relative to the limiting part. Therefore, the supporting part and the connecting part in the second form are not compressed. The centering device is a centrally symmetrical form, and the center line of the second conveying pipe arranged in the limiting part coincides with the center line of the centering device.

[0040] 3. Different from the existing technology, the first limiting unit is fixedly connected to the distal end of the second delivery tube, and the second limiting unit can slide along the second delivery tube. The advantage of this design is that the valve prosthesis is located at the distal end of the second delivery tube, and the first limiting unit is fixed at the distal end of the second delivery tube, that is, the first limiting unit is very close to the valve prosthesis. The closer the distance between the two, the better the centering effect; and, the first and second limiting units are both mounted outside the second delivery tube to ensure that the second delivery tube will not shake at will.

[0041] 4. Different from the existing technology, the limiting part includes a base, a limiting part mounted outside the base, and an elastic part. The limiting unit constrains the matching part within the restricted space formed by the locking structure of the limiting part and the base. The matching part can roll within the restricted space to meet the adjustment requirements of the first joint and the second joint. On the other hand, the control part is connected to the limiting part. Operating the limiting part can drive the elastic part to expand and contract, thereby changing the restricted space, releasing the matching part, and completing the implantation of the centering device. It is simple to operate and has complete functions.

[0042] 5. Different from the existing technology, when the centering device is in the first form, the supporting part and the limiting part are both compressed, occupying a small space and not affecting the pipeline layout of the delivery system; when the centering device is in the second form, the axial cross-section of the centering device is generally octagonal, and the supporting part with the anchoring structure is close to the blood vessel wall, the structure is stable, and the centering effect is good; when the centering device is in the third form, the connecting part and the supporting part are both in contact with the blood vessel wall, which can effectively avoid the problem of aortic dissection and will not affect blood flow.
