[0067] The existing drug balloon dilatation catheter is usually expanded outward by balloon inflation to dilate the narrow blood vessel, and the drug on the balloon acts on the inner wall of the blood vessel. Such dilatation catheter has the following problems: first, due to the influence of blood flow, the balloon is easy to slide during the process of dilating the blood vessel, so it is difficult to accurately act on the target lesion position; second, it is difficult to realize local pressurization and drug release, which can easily lead to poor treatment effect and increased risk of blood vessel restenosis. In view of the above problems, the present application provides a drug balloon dilatation catheter, which can make the drug patch on the balloon be lifted to the specified position of releasing drug according to the demand by setting a supporting mechanism, avoid the sliding of the balloon due to the influence of blood flow, and realize the positioning of the drug patch. In addition, the drug patch is pre-released in the narrow blood vessel to treat the blood vessel wall, which can relieve the inflammation caused by the blood vessel expansion. The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0068] Embodiment 1

[0071] A part of the inner tube 4 is arranged in the inside of the balloon 1, specifically, the distal end of the inner tube 4 is inserted into the balloon 1 and fixedly connected with the distal end of the balloon 1. The outer tube 5 is arranged outside the inner tube 4, and its distal end is inserted into the balloon 1 and fixedly connected with the proximal end of the balloon 1. The cavity is formed between the outer tube 5 and the inner tube 4, which can be used to transmit the filling medium into the balloon 1 to drive the balloon 1 to expand or contract. The filling medium refers to the prior art, for example, it can be normal saline, contrast agent, etc.

[0072] The supporting mechanism 3 comprises a supporting piece 31 having an initial state and a supporting state, and a push-pull piece movably arranged in the cavity. As an example, the push-pull piece can be a pipe arranged outside the outer tube and in contact or connected with the proximal end of the supporting piece 31, and the push-pull piece can be controlled to slide along the axial direction of the inner tube 4.

[0073] Referring to Figure 9As shown, the support member 31 comprises a plurality of support rings 311 and support portions 312. The plurality of support rings 311 are sleeved on the inner tube 4 and arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the inner tube 4. The most distal support ring 311 is fixedly connected to the inner tube 4. The support rings 311 other than the most distal support ring 311 can slide relative to the inner tube 4. One or more support portions 312 are connected between two adjacent support rings 311. When a plurality of support portions 312 are arranged between two adjacent support rings 311, the plurality of support portions 312 are uniformly arranged around the axis of the inner tube 4. Preferably, 2-4 support portions 312 are connected between two adjacent support rings 311. The number of support portions 312 between different adjacent support rings 311 is the same or different.

Generally, the support portions 312 are located in the balloon 1. In the initial state, the support portions 312 are straight and do not contact the balloon 1. When the support member 31 is switched from the initial state to the support state, the support rings 311 other than the most distal support ring 311 slide relative to the inner tube 4 towards the distal end, causing the support portions 312 to arch outward, thereby pushing the balloon 1 wall in contact therewith outward to anchor the balloon 1 wall in the stenosis region and prevent the balloon 1 from sliding.

[0074] Preferably, the support portions 312 arch outward in a triangular shape. Specifically, the support portions 312 comprise first support arms 3121 and second support arms 3122 connected in rotation. The ends of the first support arms 3121 and the second support arms 3122 away from each other are connected to the corresponding adjacent support rings 311, respectively. When the support rings 311 slide relative to the inner tube 4 towards the distal end, the support rings 311 press the support portions 312, causing the connection of the first support arms 3121 and the second support arms 3122 to move in a direction away from the axis of the inner tube 4, i.e. arch outward, thereby pushing part of the balloon 1 wall to a predetermined position; when the support rings 311 slide in the opposite direction, the support rings 311 pull the support portions 312 to straighten them.

[0075] The support member 31 is preferably integrally formed, for example, by laser engraving technology. Preferably, the support member 31 is made of a pipe made of stainless steel material.

[0076] The most proximal support ring 311 of the support member 31 is connected to the push-pull member. Under the driving of the push-pull member, the support member 31 can be switched between the initial state and the support state.

[0077] Referring to Figures 1 to 3The drug patches 2 are arranged outside the balloon 1, preferably corresponding to the support portions 312, and are located at the outer region of the balloon 1 wall contacted by the support portions 312 in the supporting state, so as to be pushed outward by the support portions 312 when the support portions 312 arch outward.

[0078] Further, referring to Figure 10 The drug patches 2 include a first patch 21 and a second patch 22. The first patch 21 includes a permeation region 212 in the middle and an adhesive region 211 around the permeation region 212, the permeation region 212 is provided with a plurality of micropores for releasing drugs, and the adhesive region 211 is adhered to the balloon 1 by a hot melt process or glue. As preferred, the first patch 21 is made of polyethylene (PE) or polylactic acid (PLA), which has good biocompatibility and can realize heat shrinkage and hot melting at a relatively low temperature. The second patch 22 is located between the first patch 21 and the balloon 1 and carries drugs, which is preferably a material with good drug adsorption capacity and biocompatibility, such as sodium alginate, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or other biodegradable polymers. The drugs include but are not limited to anti-proliferative drugs (such as paclitaxel) or anti-thrombotic drugs (such as sirolimus).

[0079] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 11 The drug balloon dilatation catheter further includes a driving mechanism 6, the driving mechanism 6 includes a handle 61 connected to the outer tube 5 and / or the inner tube 4, and a transmission member and a driving assembly arranged on the handle 61, the transmission member is connected between the push-pull member and the driving assembly and is controlled by the driving assembly, and the transmission member can move the push-pull member axially along the inner tube 4 to switch the support member 31 between the supporting state and the initial state.

[0080] In this embodiment, the proximal ends of the inner tube 4 and the outer tube 5 are connected to the handle 61, and the proximal end of the inner tube 4 extends out of the outer tube 5. The handle 61 has a pressurized cavity connected to the lumen and used for introducing the filling medium, and a guide wire cavity connected to the inner tube 4 and used for introducing the guide wire 7. The transmission member includes a transmission tube 62 screwed to the handle 61 and located between the inner tube 4 and the outer tube 5, a cam 63 connected to the transmission tube 62, and a transmission rod 64 fixedly connected to the cam 63. When the transmission rod 64 is rotated, the cam 63 on it is rotated and drives the transmission tube 62 to spiral along the axial direction of the inner tube 4, thereby driving the push-pull rod to move axially along the inner tube 4. The drive assembly includes an operating part 65, a first rotating wheel 66, and a second rotating wheel 67, wherein the second rotating wheel 67 is fixedly connected to the proximal end of the transmission rod 64; the first rotating wheel 66 is engaged between the operating part 65 and the second rotating wheel 67, and has a plurality of distributed on the outer periphery of the second rotating wheel 67. Rotating the operating part 65, the first rotating wheel 66 rotates with the second rotating wheel 67 under the drive of the operating part 65, and the second rotating wheel 67 rotates with the transmission rod 64, thereby causing the cam 63 on the transmission rod 64 to spiral along the axial direction of the inner tube 4 with the transmission tube 62.
