Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medical device technology, and in particular relates to a myocardial rotation system containing a barbed puncture needle. Background Technology

[0002] Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is reported to cause various symptoms, including exertional dyspnea, chest pain, palpitations, and syncope. Serious complications can arise, leading to disease progression or death. While the incidence of sudden cardiac death is only 1%, it remains a leading cause of death among HCM patients, particularly young patients, and is a major cause of sudden death in adolescents and athletes.

[0003] Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is a hereditary heart disease characterized by significant thickening of the interventricular septum. Currently, there are four main treatment methods: drug therapy, alcohol septal ablation, traditional open-heart surgery, and radiofrequency ablation. However, these surgeries all have significant limitations. Drug therapy can only provide varying degrees of symptom relief but cannot fundamentally resolve the obstruction; open-heart surgery carries high risks and causes significant harm to the body; and alcohol septal ablation and radiofrequency ablation are both accompanied by a series of complications.

[0004] Therefore, patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy are like a "time bomb" hidden deep inside their bodies. They are afraid of the risks of surgery and dare not have surgery to eradicate it. They rely on medication to relieve symptoms, which makes them constantly shrouded in the psychological pressure of sudden death and live in the fear of the unknown, which seriously affects their quality of life. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the existing myocardial tissue resection instruments, the present invention provides a myocardial rotary resection system with a barbed puncture needle, which can achieve continuous resection and precise resection of myocardial tissue under minimally invasive incision conditions.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0008] The rotary cutting device assembly (1) extends outside the housing (5), and its internal cavity communicates with the internal cavity of the housing (5). The rotary cutting device assembly (1) is provided with a cutting window (1-4) and a tissue storage chamber (1-2) on the side away from the housing (5). The cutting window (1-4) communicates with its internal cavity. The rotary cutting device assembly (1) is provided with a rotary cutting tube (1-5). One end of the rotary cutting tube (1-5) is connected to a first bevel gear (1-6), and the other end forms a rotary cutting blade (1-12). The rotary cutting blade (1-12) can perform a continuous axial cutting action relative to the cutting window (1-4) based on axial rotation. When the rotary cutting tube (1-5) blocks the cutting window (1-4), the cutting window (1-4) is in a closed state.

After the tissue is attracted into the rotary cutting window (1-4), the puncture needle (1-3) instantly pierces the tissue when the trigger (2-1) and the limiting pin (2-8) are released, puncturing and fixing the target that has entered the cavity from the rotary cutting window (1-4). The trigger (2-1) is pulled until it is fully engaged, and the second bevel gear (2-10) rotates the rotary cutting blade 180° in conjunction with the first bevel gear (1-6) to remove the target tissue. The trigger (2-1) is released, and under the action of the torsion spring (2-7), the trigger (2-1) is driven to reset the rotary cutting window (1-4) and close. The lever (2-6) is engaged to drive the puncture needle (1-3) to return the cut tissue to the tissue storage chamber (1-2).

[0012] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, the rotary cutting device assembly (1) is provided with a compression rod (1-1). When the puncture needle (1-3) and the barbed structure (1-11) push the rotary-cut tissue, the compression rod (1-1) is driven by the buckle (2-6) to move the rotary-cut tissue to the tissue storage chamber (1-2) to avoid the risk of tissue falling into the body and causing thrombosis.

[0013] According to an optional embodiment of the present invention, a first spring (1-8) is wound around the end of the puncture needle (1-3) away from the rotary cutting device assembly (1).

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] like Figures 1-10 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a myocardial rotary cutting system with a barbed puncture needle, including a housing 5, and a rotary cutting device assembly 1 and a negative pressure device assembly 3 disposed inside the housing 5.

[0031] The rotary cutting device assembly 1 extends outside the housing 5, and its internal cavity communicates with the internal cavity of the housing 5; the rotary cutting device assembly 1 has a cutting window 1-4 and a tissue storage chamber 1-2 on the side away from the housing 5, as shown in the reference. Figure 3 and Figure 6 The cutting window 1-4 is connected to its internal cavity. The rotary cutting device assembly 1 is provided with a rotary cutting tube 1-5. One end of the rotary cutting tube 1-5 is connected to a first bevel gear 1-6, and the other end forms a rotary cutting blade 1-12. The rotary cutting blade 1-12 can perform a continuous axial cutting action relative to the cutting window 1-4 based on axial rotation. When the rotary cutting tube 1-5 blocks the cutting window 1-4, the cutting window 1-4 is in a closed state.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a puncture needle 1-3 is provided inside the rotary cutting tube 1-5. The puncture needle 1-3 is fitted with a boss-shaped barb structure 1-11. A first spring 1-8 is wound around the end of the puncture needle 1-3 away from the rotary cutting device assembly 1. A sleeve 1-9 is also provided on the outside of the puncture needle 1-3. The sleeve 1-9 has a groove 2-9.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the negative pressure device assembly 3 is connected to a vacuum pump 3-1, which communicates with the internal cavity of the rotary cutting device assembly 1. The two are sealed by a sealing ring 3-2. In this embodiment, the negative pressure device assembly and the rotary cutting device assembly are configured to form a negative pressure state within the internal cavity of the rotary cutting device assembly, creating a negative pressure suction force at the cutting window 1-4, which can further prevent the formation of artificial thrombosis and its complications in the cut tissue.

[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 10As shown, the myocardial slicing system also includes a mechanical drive assembly 2, which includes a trigger 2-1, a hinge 2-2, a second spring 2-3, a rack 2-4, a latch 2-6, a torsion spring 2-7, a limiting pin 2-8, and a second bevel gear 2-10. The puncture needle 1-3 is connected to the latch 2-6. The hinge 2-2 is fixed to the housing 5 by screws 2-11 and 2-5. When the slicing device assembly 1 is inserted into the tissue to be operated on, the negative pressure device assembly 3 is activated. Then, by manually pulling the trigger 2-1, the trigger 2-1 drives the hinge 2-2 to move, the hinge 2-2 drives the rack 2-4 to move, the rack 2-4 drives the second bevel gear 2-10 to move, and the second bevel gear 2-10 rotates the first bevel gear 1-6 by a preset angle to open the slicing window 1-4. After the tissue is sucked into the slicing window 1-4, the puncture needle 1-3 is engaged by the trigger 2-1 and the limiting pin 2-8. The release of the trigger instantly punctures the tissue, piercing and fixing the target entering the cavity through the rotary cutting window 1-4. Continuing to pull the trigger 2-1 until it is fully engaged causes the second bevel gear 2-10 to rotate the rotary cutting blade 180°, removing the target tissue. Releasing the trigger 2-1, under the action of the torsion spring 2-7, causes the trigger 2-1 to reset and close the rotary cutting window 1-4. Pulling the lever 2-6 then moves the puncture needle 1-3 and the compression rod 1-1, causing the cut tissue to retract into the tissue storage chamber 1-2. Simultaneously, the rack and pinion reset, the puncture needle resets, and the release lever, under the spring force, resets, preparing for the next round of resection. This myocardial rotary cutting system of the present invention can achieve tissue locking and continuous mechanical rotary cutting under minimally invasive incision conditions, precisely removing myocardial tissue.

[0035] like Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 10 As shown, the end of the rotary cutting device assembly 1 is connected to a gooseneck tip 4. The outer wall of the gooseneck tip 4 is smooth and can be smoothly inserted into the target position, reducing obstruction. When the puncture needle 1-3 and the barbed structure 1-11 push the rotary-cut tissue, the compression rod 1-1 moves it to the tissue storage chamber 1-2 to avoid the risk of tissue falling into the body and causing thrombosis.

[0036] During the entire process of the component entering the myocardial ventricle, it protects the tissue from being scraped by the cutting windows 1-4. Upon reaching the target position, the cutting windows 1-4 are closed. By manually pulling the trigger of the mechanical drive component 2, the second bevel gear 2-10, in conjunction with the first bevel gear 1-6, rotates to a preset angle, opening the cutting windows 1-4. After tissue removal is completed, the trigger is released, and the windows close. This prevents the entire component from scraping the tissue during withdrawal, thus avoiding inflammation or infection. The preset angle is 0–180°.

[0037] In this embodiment, the opening direction of the rotary cutting windows 1-4 is on the left side of the instrument and perpendicular to the ground. Since the target is on the left side of the rotary cutting rod when the instrument enters from the apex of the heart, this effectively solves the problem of the surgeon being left-handed. The surface of the resection cavity body of the rotary cutting device assembly 1 has an ultrasound imaging enhancement feature, or the resection cavity body in the assembly uses a polymer material with added barium sulfate to enhance ultrasound imaging.

[0038] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention and within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
