Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of interventional treatment instruments, and in particular to a balloon dilatation catheter. Background Art
[0002] The balloon dilatation catheter usually includes a long catheter and an expandable balloon at the distal end of the catheter. The balloon expands after reaching the target location of the blood vessel, which can dilate the narrow part of the blood vessel. After the balloon is expanded, the pressure needs to be released to shrink it, and then it is withdrawn out of the body.
[0003] In the prior art, the shape of the balloon after depressurization is irregular and it is difficult to return to the original shape of multiple folded wings. After depressurization, the balloon usually presents a two-piece bonding structure attached to the surface of the catheter. This structure makes the overall outer diameter of the balloon after depressurization relatively large, which can easily cause damage to the blood vessel wall and is not conducive to the withdrawal of the balloon from the body.
[0004] Therefore, how to make the overall outer diameter of the balloon smaller when it is deflated and folded into its initial state when entering the blood vessel is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in this field. Summary of the invention

After the pressure is released, the balloon body retracts to the outside of the folding rod assembly.

[0038] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the balloon 2 includes a distal tube segment 21, a proximal tube segment 23 and a balloon body 22; the distal tube segment 21 and the proximal tube segment 23 are both tubular, the distal tube segment 21 is welded and sealed at the outer periphery of the distal end of the inner tube 11, and the proximal tube segment 23 is welded and sealed at the outer periphery of the distal end of the multi-lumen tube 12. The balloon body 22 is integrally connected between the distal tube segment 21 and the proximal tube segment 23, and the balloon body 22 can expand relative to the radial direction of the inner tube 11 after the medium is flushed into the inner cavity. Specifically, the material of the balloon body 22 is one or more of polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polyurethane, polyamide, polyether block polyamide, polyethylene terephthalate or other polymer materials with good biocompatibility.
[0039] In this embodiment, if Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, multiple folding mechanisms are arranged around the circumference of the catheter 1. The folding mechanism includes a folding rod assembly 31 and a push rod 32. The folding rod assembly 31 is located inside the balloon body 22 and includes at least three folding rods that are rotatably connected. The push rod 32 is movably arranged in the push rod cavity of the multi-lumen tube 12, and the distal end of the push rod 32 is rotatably connected to the proximal end of the folding rod assembly 31. The control mechanism 5 is transmission-connected to the proximal end of the push rod 32 and can slide axially and rotate circumferentially relative to the multi-lumen tube 12. In some embodiments, the folding mechanism also includes a fixing rod 33, and the fixing rod 33 is welded and fixed to the distal end of the inner tube 11 and the distal tube section 21. In other alternative embodiments, a fixing ring is welded and fixed to the outer periphery of the distal end of the inner tube 11, and a folding rod connected to the fixing ring of the folding rod assembly 31 is rotatably connected to the hinged portion at the proximal end of the fixing ring.
[0040] The folding rod assembly 31, under the action of the control mechanism 5, has a linear arrangement state in which multiple folding rods are arranged in a straight line along the axial direction of the inner tube 11, a planar deployment state in which at least two folding rods are rotated outward along the radial direction of the inner tube 11 and multiple folding rods are in the same plane, and a twisted deployment state in which multiple folding rods are twisted after being in the planar deployment state so that multiple folding rods are not in the same plane. Figure 1-Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the folding rod assembly 31 being in a linear arrangement state, Figure 5-Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the folding rod assembly 31 in a planar unfolded state, Figure 8-Figure 10 It is a schematic diagram of the folding rod assembly 31 in a twisted and unfolded state.
[0041] In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, three folding mechanisms are evenly arranged around the circumference of the catheter 1; accordingly, the number of folding rod assemblies 31 in the balloon body 22 and the number of push rods 32 in the multi-lumen tube 12 are both three. In other alternative embodiments, the number of folding mechanisms can also be four or more.
[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the folding rod assembly 31 includes a first folding rod 311, a second folding rod 312 and a third folding rod 313; the distal end of the first folding rod 311 is rotatably connected to the proximal end of the fixing rod 33, the distal end of the second folding rod 312 is rotatably connected to the proximal end of the first folding rod 311, the distal end of the third folding rod 313 is rotatably connected to the proximal end of the second folding rod 312, and the proximal end of the third folding rod 313 is rotatably connected to the distal end of the push rod 32. The balloon body 22 includes a balloon expansion section 22a located in the middle and in a cylindrical shape, a balloon distal connection section 22b and a balloon proximal connection section 22c located at both axial ends of the balloon expansion section 22a and in a truncated cone shape. When the balloon body 22 is in an expanded state and the folding rod assembly 31 is in a planar unfolded state, the connecting position of the first folding rod 311 and the second folding rod 312 is set corresponding to the connecting position of the balloon distal connecting section 22b and the balloon expansion section 22a, and the connecting position of the second folding rod 312 and the third folding rod 313 is set corresponding to the connecting position of the balloon expansion section 22a and the balloon proximal connecting section 22c. There is a gap between the first folding rod 311 and the inner wall of the balloon distal connecting section 22b, there is a gap between the second folding rod 312 and the inner wall of the balloon expansion section 22a, and there is a gap between the third folding rod 313 and the inner wall of the balloon proximal connecting section 22c. When the balloon body 22 is depressurized and retracted, the distal connecting section 22b of the balloon contracts to the first folding rod 311, and the first folding rod 311 provides support for the distal connecting section 22b of the balloon; the balloon expansion section 22a contracts to the second folding rod 312, and the second folding rod 312 provides support for the balloon expansion section 22a; the proximal connecting section 22c of the balloon contracts to the third folding rod 313, and the third folding rod 313 provides support for the proximal connecting section 22c of the balloon. It can be understood here that the number of folding rods on the folding rod assembly 31 is not limited to three, and the actual number of folding rods can be selected according to the adaptability of the shape of the balloon 2 after expansion. Figure 8-Figure 10 As shown, when the balloon body 22 is depressurized and retracted into the folding rod assembly 31 , the portion of the balloon body 22 that wraps the folding rod assembly 31 is combined with the folding rod assembly 31 to form three folding wings 6 , and the three folding wings 6 are evenly arranged around the circumference of the inner tube 11 .
[0043] In some embodiments, Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, the proximal end of the push rod 32 extends into the catheter seat 4, and the outer wall of the catheter seat 4 is provided with three grooves 43 for accommodating the proximal ends of the three push rods 32 respectively; the control mechanism 5 is arranged on the catheter seat 4. Specifically, the control mechanism 5 includes a gear 51 installed in the groove 43 and sleeved and fixed on the outer periphery of the proximal end of the push rod 32, and a control member 52 located on the opening side of the groove 43 and meshingly connected with the gear 51; the inner side of the control member 52 is provided with a pair of limiting steps 521 located at both ends of the axial direction of the gear 51, and the pair of limiting steps 521 extend from the outside to the inside along the radial direction of the control member 52. In other alternative embodiments, the control mechanism 5 can also be arranged on a sleeve fixedly connected to the proximal end of the multi-lumen tube 12, and the sleeve can be connected to the distal end of the catheter seat 4 as an extension of the catheter seat 4, or it can be an independent component located at the distal end of the catheter seat 4 and not connected to the catheter seat 4.
[0044] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, the control member 52 is an annular structure sleeved on the outer periphery of the catheter seat 4, and the inner wall of the control member 52 is provided with a toothed structure meshing and transmission connected with the three gears 51. In other alternative embodiments, the control member 52 can also be divided into three, and the three control members 52 are evenly arranged around the circumference of the catheter seat 4. Each control member 52 is specifically a gear ring or an arc-shaped rack meshing and transmission connected to the outer periphery of the corresponding single gear 51. The three gear rings or arc-shaped racks can drive the gear 51 and the push rod 32 to rotate at the same time under the action of external force, or drive the corresponding gear 51 and the push rod 32 to rotate separately.
[0045] When the above-mentioned balloon dilatation catheter is used, the balloon body 22 is in a contracted state and is sent to the lesion site, and then fluid is input into the balloon body 22 to expand the balloon body 22. The expanded balloon body 22 expands the stenotic site of the blood vessel, such as Figure 3 As shown, at this time, the first folding rod 311, the second folding rod 312, and the third folding rod 313 are connected in sequence and arranged in a straight line around the inner tube 11; when the balloon dilatation catheter needs to be withdrawn from the body, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the operator pushes the control member 52 to move the control member 52 from the proximal end to the distal end along the outer wall of the catheter seat 4, and the control member 52 drives the push rod 32 to move from the proximal end to the distal end, thereby making the first folding rod 311, the second folding rod 312, and the third folding rod 313 radially expand from a linear arrangement state relative to the inner tube 11 to a planar expansion state in the same plane. Then the fluid in the balloon body 22 is extracted to release the pressure of the balloon body 22. Since there are three folding rod assemblies 31 in a planar expansion state in the balloon body 22, the pressure relief of the balloon body 22 will form three folding wings 6 on the three folding rod assemblies 31. Finally, as shown in FIG. Figure 8-Figure 10As shown, the operator rotates the control member 52, and the control member 52 rotates to drive the gear 51 to rotate, thereby driving the push rod 32 to rotate, and the push rod 32 drives the first folding rod 311, the second folding rod 312, and the third folding rod 313 to twist a certain angle, thereby driving the folding wings 6 of the balloon 2 to roll into Fig.10 The balloon dilatation catheter is then withdrawn from the body.
[0046] In summary, the balloon dilatation catheter provided by the embodiment of the present invention has multiple folding rod assemblies 31 arranged inside the balloon body 22, multiple push tube cavities and multiple push rods 32 arranged inside the multi-lumen tube 12 of the catheter 1, the distal end of the push rod 32 is rotatably connected to the proximal end of the corresponding folding rod assembly 31, and the proximal end of the push rod 32 is connected to the control mechanism 5 that can slide axially and rotate circumferentially relative to the multi-lumen tube 12; before the balloon body 22 is depressurized and retracted, the control mechanism 5 moves from the proximal end to the distal end along the axial direction of the multi-lumen tube 12, and the control mechanism 5 drives the push rod 32 to move from the proximal end to the distal end, thereby making the folding rod assembly 31 rotate outward from a linear arrangement state to a planar expansion state in which multiple folding rods are in the same plane; then the flow in the balloon body 22 is folded outward, and the folding rod assembly 31 is rotated outward from a linear arrangement state to a planar expansion state in which multiple folding rods are in the same plane; then the flow in the balloon body 22 is folded outward, and the folding rod assemblies 31 are folded outward, and ... The balloon body 22 is withdrawn, and the pressure is released and the balloon body 22 retracts to the outside of the folding rod assembly 31. The part of the balloon body 22 that wraps the folding rod assembly 31 after the pressure is released and the folding rod assembly 31 are combined to form a plurality of folding wings 6; finally, the control mechanism 5 is rotated along the circumferential direction of the multi-lumen tube 12, and the control mechanism 5 drives the push rod 32 to rotate, thereby driving the plurality of folding rods of the folding rod assembly 31 to twist a certain angle, and the plurality of folding rods of the folding rod assembly 31 are twisted from a planar unfolded state in the same plane to a twisted unfolded state in which the plurality of folding rods are not in the same plane. At the same time, the plurality of folding wings 6 are wound around the outer circumference of the inner tube 11, so that the overall diameter of the balloon 2 after contraction is minimized, which is conducive to withdrawing the balloon 2 from the blood vessel and avoiding damage to the blood vessel during the withdrawal process of the balloon 2.
[0047] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention.
