Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to an axially interactive stent and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Minimally invasive interventional surgery is a common treatment for aneurysms. Currently, commonly used treatment techniques for aneurysms include coil packing, stent-assisted coil packing, blood flow diversion device placement, covered stent implantation and other methods. The adhesion of the stent to the wall is particularly important for the immediate and medium- and long-term treatment effects of the lesion site. Poor adhesion of the stent body to the wall can easily lead to stent stenosis and acute thrombosis. Insufficient circumferential rigidity of the stent body can easily lead to poor opening effect when it is released from the lumen, which directly affects the subsequent adhesion effect of the stent body, and the immediate treatment effect of the operation is not ideal.

[0013] When n is an even number when the adjacent first weaving unit and the second weaving unit continue to twist after they are interwoven to produce an interweaving point, the first weaving unit and the second weaving unit continue to weave along the original weaving direction after forming an axial interactive structure and before producing the next interweaving point.

[0017] In a possible implementation, the number of the weaving units is 2m, where m≥4, and m is a positive integer.
[0018] In one possible implementation, the number of axial interaction structures in the circumferential direction at the same axial position of the stent body is 1≤a≤m, where a is a positive integer, forming a circumferential interaction group, and the axial interaction structures in the circumferential interaction group have the same or different screwing directions and screwing angles.
[0019] In a possible implementation, there is a preset distance Li between two adjacent circumferentially interactive groups, where Li=x*p, p is the braided layer pitch, and x>0;
[0020] The preset distances Li between any adjacent circumferential interaction groups are the same or different.
[0021] In a possible implementation, two ends of the bracket body are in a trumpet-mouth structure.
[0022] In a possible implementation, the end of the stent body is a loose structure, a partially closed structure, or a fully closed structure.
[0023] In one possible implementation, the end of the stent body can be formed into a partially closed or fully closed structure by winding, bundled wire collection, or by mechanical clamping, welding, cylindrical hollow tube or C-ring fixing braiding unit.
[0024] In a possible implementation, the ends of the end closing structure of the stent body may be flush or arranged in staggered layers.
[0025] In a possible implementation, when the end portion of the stent body is bundled and gathered, a partially closed gathering structure or a fully closed gathering structure may be formed;
[0026] In a possible implementation, when the end of the stent body is bundled and gathered to form a partially closed or fully closed gathering structure, the total wire heads w involved in the weaving are first divided into n braided wire groups, and the number of wire heads in each braided wire group is w / n, and n can be 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12;
[0027] The ε group is further divided into two bundles, where ε is a natural number greater than 0, ε≤η;
[0028] The two equally divided bundles of braided yarns rotate in the same direction or in opposite directions to form a stable yarn bundle, and then the two yarn bundles are bound together in parallel to form a yarn collection group.
[0029] In one possible implementation, the braiding unit contains a material with shape memory properties such as nickel titanium, cobalt chromium, or a metal wire containing a radiopaque component, or is a composite of wires of different materials, and the stent body is woven from one or more braiding units.
[0030] In a possible implementation, the outer diameter of the stent body ranges from 1.5 to 12 mm, and the length ranges from 10 to 80 mm.
[0031] In a possible implementation, the stent body may be woven from weaving units with one wire diameter or multiple wire diameters.

[0033] The first weaving unit and the second weaving unit are arranged to be weaved at intervals;
[0034] After two adjacent braiding units with different braiding directions are braided to produce a braiding point, they are twisted along the axial direction of the stent body at the same braiding point;
[0035] The first braiding unit and the second braiding unit are interwoven with each other and twisted after being interwoven to form a hollow column structure;

[0037] The beneficial effects of the axially interactive stent of the embodiment of the present application are as follows: the axially interactive structure on the stent body can enhance the rigidity of the area, thereby improving the adhesion between the stent body and the blood vessel wall, ensuring that the stent body can fit closely to the inner wall of the blood vessel after implantation, and reducing the risk of displacement or sliding. In addition, these axially interactive structures are not randomly distributed, but are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the stent body according to a certain rule. While improving the wall adhesion ability of the stent body, it also optimizes the overall flexibility of the stent body, so that it can still maintain good compliance and wall adhesion when facing tortuous and complex blood vessel structures, ensuring the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. The multiple interactive points where the first braiding units and the second braiding units are twisted form multiple circumferential interactive group structures, which enhance the rigidity of the stent body in the circumferential direction of the stent body, and provide strong support for the stent body to be released from the lumen and opened smoothly.

[0057] In addition, in order to better illustrate the present application, numerous specific details are given in the following specific embodiments. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present application can also be implemented without certain specific details. In some examples, methods, means, components and circuits well known to those skilled in the art are not described in detail in order to highlight the subject matter of the present application.
[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the axially interactive stent of the embodiment of the present application includes: a stent body 100, the stent body 100 includes a first weaving unit 110 arranged along a first weaving direction, and a second weaving unit 120 arranged along a second weaving direction, the weaving units in the two directions are alternately distributed along the circumferential direction, and the interlacing points are interlaced to form a hollow column structure, and any adjacent first weaving unit 110 and second weaving unit 120, after the same interlacing point generated after interlacing continues to be twisted along the axial direction of the stent body, after forming an axial interactive structure, the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are woven along the original weaving direction or along the weaving direction of another weaving unit, so that the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are interwoven and twisted to construct a hollow column structure with high flexibility and adaptability. Specifically, after twisting, the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 can choose to continue weaving along their original weaving direction, or can choose to weave along the weaving direction of another weaving unit, giving the stent body more excellent elasticity and adaptability.
[0059] In this embodiment, the axial interaction structure 130 on the stent body 100 can enhance the rigidity of the area, thereby improving the adhesion between the stent body and the blood vessel wall, ensuring that the stent body can be closely attached to the inner wall of the blood vessel after implantation, and reducing the risk of displacement or sliding. In addition, these axial interaction structures 130 are not randomly distributed, but are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the stent body according to a certain rule. While improving the wall adhesion ability of the stent body, it also optimizes the overall flexibility of the stent body, so that it can still maintain good compliance and wall adhesion when facing tortuous and complex blood vessel structures, ensuring the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. The axial interaction structures 130 twisted by the multiple first weaving units 110 and the second weaving units 120 form multiple circumferential interaction group structures, which enhance the rigidity of the stent body in the circumferential direction of the stent body 100, and provide strong support for the stent body to be released from the lumen and opened smoothly.
[0060] In one specific embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the twisting direction of the adjacent first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 is clockwise or counterclockwise. When the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 form the stent body 100, their twisting directions have clear characteristics, that is, they can be clockwise or counterclockwise. By selecting different twisting directions, the internal structure and mechanical properties of the stent body can be adjusted to meet specific application requirements. Whether it is clockwise or counterclockwise twisting, it can ensure that the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are closely interwoven to form a stable and reliable stent body structure.
[0061] It should be noted that the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit twisted with each other are woven in a 1-on-1 manner, so the first weaving unit 110 is overlapped on the second weaving unit 120, or the second weaving unit 120 is overlapped on the first weaving unit 110. Therefore, when the first weaving unit 110 is overlapped on the second weaving unit 120, the first weaving unit 110 will be relatively opened with the second weaving unit 120 when rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise, and the first weaving unit 110 will overlap with the second weaving unit 120, and the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 will be twisted to form an axial interaction structure 130 when the first weaving unit 110 is overlapped on the second weaving unit 120 and rotated 180 degrees clockwise, the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 knobs form an axial interaction structure 130.
[0062] Further, in this specific embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the twisting angle between the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 is α, α=n*180°, 1≤n≤10.
[0063] Among them, n is the number of knob turns of the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120. During the weaving process of the stent body 100, the single twisting number of the axial interaction structure 130 is about 1-3 times, which avoids excessive rigidity of the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 at the interaction position, affecting the overall rigidity and opening degree of the stent body.
[0064] In one specific embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the first braiding unit 110 and the second braiding unit 120 are interwoven to produce interwoven points and then continue to twist and interweave to form an axial interactive structure 130. The axial interactive structure 130 is arranged along the circumference and axial direction of the stent body. Multiple axial interactive structures 130 are formed by twisting along the circumference and axial direction of the stent body. In the circumferential direction, the axial interactive structure 130 can ensure that the annular structure of the stent body is stably maintained and effectively resist the radial pressure from the blood vessel wall. In the axial direction, the axial interactive structure 130 enhances the longitudinal continuity of the stent body, so that it can better adapt to the bending and stretching of the blood vessel.
[0065] In one specific embodiment, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first weaving unit 110 is overlapped on the second weaving unit 120. When rotated 180 degrees clockwise, the knobs of the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 form an axial interactive structure 130. When the weaving times of the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are odd, after the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are twisted, the first weaving unit 110 is weaved along the weaving direction and trajectory of the second weaving unit 120, and the second weaving unit 120 is weaved along the weaving direction and trajectory of the first weaving unit 110.
[0066] Among them, the first weaving unit 110 is overlapped on the second weaving unit 120. When it is rotated 180 degrees clockwise, the knobs of the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 form an axial interactive structure 130. When the weaving times of the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are even, after the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are twisted, the first weaving unit 110 is weaved along the original weaving direction and trajectory, and the second weaving unit 120 is weaved along the original weaving direction and trajectory.
[0067] In one specific embodiment, the first braiding unit 110 and the second braiding unit 120 are composed of a single or multiple wires. When a single wire is used for braiding, the stent body may show more delicate and soft characteristics, which is suitable for application scenarios requiring high compliance. When multiple wires are used for braiding, the structural strength and stability of the stent body can be significantly improved, making it more suitable for environments that withstand greater pressure or require higher support.
[0068] In one specific embodiment, the first weaving unit 110 is arranged in parallel, or in advance or during the weaving process, a spring, strand or rope structure is formed by twisting, spring winding, etc. In the twisting process, a single or multiple wires are tightly wound and twisted to form a spring structure with significant elasticity and restoring force, which gives the first weaving unit 110 excellent flexibility and shape memory. The spring winding process further enhances the stability and durability of the structure, so that the first weaving unit 110 can maintain the integrity of the shape and the continuity of the function when subjected to external forces. In addition, the formation of a rope-like or strand-like structure improves the tensile strength and wear resistance of the first weaving unit 110.
[0069] The number of braiding wires in the second braiding unit 120 is the same as that in the first braiding unit 110 .
[0070] In one specific embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the stent body is a straight section structure, and the stent body maintains a straight or nearly straight extension in the length direction, without significant bending or curvature changes. The straight section structure of the stent body allows the stent end to more easily adapt to and fit the target area, such as blood vessels and lumens, during installation and use, providing a more precise and reliable support effect.
[0071] Furthermore, in this specific embodiment, the support body with a straight section structure is easy to manufacture and process, which reduces production costs and also helps to improve product quality and consistency.
[0072] In one specific embodiment, see Figure 6-Figure 10 The two ends of the stent body are in a trumpet-shaped structure, which gives the stent body better adaptability and functionality. The trumpet-shaped structure gradually expands from the stent body to the circumferential direction of the two ends of the stent, and extends axially at the same time. The trumpet-shaped structure at the end of the stent has a good opening effect at the moment of release, which is helpful for the subsequent release and opening of the stent body; after the stent body is fully deployed, the trumpet-shaped structure has a good anchoring effect and can be closely attached to the blood vessel wall or other biological structures, providing a more stable support effect, which helps to prevent the stent body from shifting or falling off.
[0073] In one specific embodiment, the number of the first weaving units 110 and the number of the second weaving units 120 are both 2m, where m≥4 and m is a positive integer.
[0074] In one specific embodiment, the number of axial interaction structures in the circumferential direction at the same axial position of the stent body is 1≤a≤m, where a is a positive integer, forming a circumferential interaction structure 130, and the screwing direction and screwing angle thereof are the same or different.
[0075] In one specific embodiment, there is a preset distance Li between two adjacent circumferentially interactive groups, where Li=x*p, p is the pitch of the braided layer, and x>0. The preset distance Li between any adjacent circumferentially interactive groups is the same or different.
[0076] In one specific embodiment, two ends of the bracket body 100 are in a bell-mouth structure.
[0077] In one specific embodiment, the end of the stent body is a loose structure, a partially closed structure or a fully closed structure.
[0078] Among them, the weaving of the two ends of the bracket body 100 includes the following steps: when weaving starts or ends, the total wire heads w involved in the weaving are first divided into η weaving wire groups, the number of wire heads in each weaving wire group is w / η, η can be 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and the ε group is further divided into two bundles, ε is a natural number greater than 0, ε≤η, and the two equally divided bundles of weaving wires rotate in the same direction or opposite directions to form a stable wire bundle, and then the two bundles of wires are tied together in parallel to form a wire collection group.
[0079] Furthermore, in this specific embodiment, the wire collection group of the bracket body 100 can be fixed by welding.
[0080] In one specific embodiment, the end of the stent body 100 contains X-ray-opaque precious metal hollow tubes, the number of which is ε. The precious metal hollow tubes can be connected to the braided wire by bonding, welding or mechanical crimping, including cylindrical hollow tubes or C-shaped rings.
[0081] In one specific embodiment, the end of the stent body 100 may adopt a full-winding or partial-winding structure design, and the w braided wires are divided into w / 2 groups, and two adjacent braided wires with inconsistent rotation directions form a winding group.
[0082] In one specific embodiment, the wire collection group and the rewinding group can be distributed in staggered layers.
[0083] In one specific embodiment, the first braided unit 110 and the second braided unit 120 are both made of materials containing nickel-titanium and cobalt-chromium with shape memory properties, or are metal wires containing radiopaque components, or are a mixed braid of braided units of different materials.
[0084] In one specific embodiment, the outer diameter of the stent body ranges from 1.5 to 12 mm, and the length ranges from 10 to 80 mm.
[0085] In one specific embodiment, the braiding unit of the stent body can be a single wire diameter or a mixture of multiple wire diameters.

[0091] S300, the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 are interwoven and twisted to form a hollow column structure;
[0092] In this step, during the axial weaving process of the first weaving unit 110 and the second weaving unit 120 along the stent body, some adjacent first weaving units 110 and second weaving units 120 are twisted to form an axial interactive structure 130, and continue to be woven into a hollow columnar structure.
