Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of perfusion, and in particular to a multi-channel myocardial in vitro perfusion system. Background Art
[0002] At present, the isolated heart perfusion system is an important tool for studying the electrophysiological activity of the isolated heart and is widely used in various fields of medicine, including research fields in basic and clinical related departments such as physiology, pharmacology, and biochemistry. The system inserts a heart cannula into the aorta under constant temperature and constant flow conditions, and retrogradely perfuses oxygenated perfusion fluid (such as KH solution) to maintain the normal physiological activity of the isolated heart in the outside world.
[0003] However, traditional systems usually only have a single channel and are inefficient, making it difficult to meet the experimental needs of simultaneously studying the effects of multiple drugs or different conditions on the isolated heart. At the same time, during the use of the perfusion system, although a constant temperature circuit is set up to heat and keep the perfusion fluid warm, the constant temperature circuit cannot be quickly constructed in the early stage of the experiment, resulting in the perfusion fluid failing to reach a constant temperature during the early flow process. At this time, after the perfusion fluid flows into the isolated heart, it not only fails to maintain the external physiological activities of the isolated heart, but also easily affects the accuracy of the experimental results. It also affects the activity of the isolated heart, which is not conducive to the stable progress of the experiment.
[0004] Application number CN201810426958.5 discloses an isolated heart perfusion experimental device, including a heart perfusion device with a perfusion catheter and an indwelling needle, the indwelling needle includes a puncture needle and a catheter with openings at both ends, the rear end of the catheter is fixed with a fixed joint for detachably connecting with the liquid outlet end of the perfusion catheter, the fixed joint is provided with an interface communicating with the inner cavity of the catheter, and the front end of the puncture needle passes through the interface and the inner cavity of the catheter in turn. Using this isolated heart perfusion experimental device is conducive to the operator quickly hanging the heart removed from the experimental mouse on the heart perfusion device, so as to ensure the activity of the removed heart. However, when the perfusion fluid flows in the early stage, the patent has a greater impact on the isolated heart due to the large temperature change, which not only causes heart fibrillation, but may even cause a certain degree of damage to the living body.

[0018] 2. The present invention senses the temperature of the perfusion fluid through the heat conduction plate and the metal sheet, so that when the temperature does not reach a constant temperature, the perfusion fluid can only flow from the guide groove through the branch pipe and flow to the first hose again under the action of the peristaltic pump, so that the perfusion fluid circulates, and at the same time, a large amount of perfusion fluid is prevented from accumulating in the temperature control tube, and the problem of uncontrollable perfusion rate is avoided. When the temperature of the perfusion fluid reaches a constant temperature, under the action of the metal sheet with different thermal expansion coefficients, the metal sheet drives the two baffles to swing to another state through the adjustment component, so that the perfusion fluid flows from the guide groove to the bottom of the temperature control tube and flows into the isolated heart for perfusion experiment. When the temperature of the perfusion fluid is too high, the metal sheet can drive the two baffles to change their states again through the adjustment component, so that the perfusion fluid flows through the branch pipe to the first hose for circulation. In this way, it can not only ensure that the perfusion fluid flows to the isolated heart at a constant temperature, but also ensure that the perfusion fluid can maintain the normal physiological activities of the isolated heart, while ensuring the accuracy of the experimental data.

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Embodiment 1
[0022] Currently, conventional perfusion systems usually have only a single channel and can only perfuse a single isolated heart. This is inefficient and difficult to meet the experimental requirements of simultaneously studying the effects of multiple drugs or different conditions on the isolated heart. Therefore, this embodiment is specially invented to solve the above problems.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a multi-channel myocardial in vitro perfusion system of this embodiment includes a support frame 1, and a perfusion assembly 2 is arranged on the support frame 1 for perfusing the isolated myocardium; the perfusion assembly 2 also includes a plurality of temperature control tubes 201 that are distributed at intervals in the transverse direction and fixedly connected to the support frame 1. The perfusion assembly 2 includes a plurality of first interlayer tanks 202 and second interlayer tanks 203 located on the support frame 1, the second interlayer tank 203 is located above the first interlayer tank 202, the lower end of the first interlayer tank 202 is connected to a three-way valve 204, one end of the three-way valve 204 is connected to a first hose 205, the free end of the first hose 205 is connected to the lower side of the temperature control tube 201, the other end of the three-way valve 204 is connected to a second hose 207, the free end of the second hose 207 is connected to the bottom of the corresponding second interlayer tank 203, a plurality of peristaltic pumps 208 are arranged on one side of the support frame 1, the first hose 205 is clamped on the corresponding peristaltic pump 208, and an isolated heart 209 is suspended at the lower end of the temperature control tube 201.
[0024] The thermostatic assembly 5 is arranged on the outside of the perfusion assembly 2, and is used to maintain the temperature of the fluid in the perfusion assembly 2. The thermostatic assembly 5 includes a water bath 501, which is arranged on one side of the support frame 1. The lower side of the first interlayer tank 202 closest to the water bath 501 is connected to the inlet of the water bath 501 through the water inlet pipe 502, and a disc tube 503 is fixedly connected in the temperature control tube 201. The liquid in the first interlayer tank 202 closest to the water bath 501 flows through the adjacent disc tubes 503 and the first interlayer tank 202 in sequence according to the principle of bottom-in and top-out through the first flow path pipe 504. The upper end of the disc tube 503 farthest from the water bath 501 is connected to the lower end of the corresponding second interlayer tank 203 through the second flow path pipe 505, and the two adjacent second interlayer tanks 203 are connected through the third flow path pipe 506. Finally, the upper end of the second interlayer tank 203 close to the water bath 501 is connected to the water outlet of the water bath 501 through the water outlet pipe 507.
[0025] The volume of the first interlayer tank 202 is smaller than that of the second interlayer tank 203 , and the diameters of the first flow tube 504 , the second flow tube 505 and the third flow tube 506 are all larger than the diameters of the first hose 205 and the second hose 207 .
[0026] In actual use, the liquid in the water bath 501 is first heated to a constant temperature, and then injected into the first interlayer tank 202 through the inlet of the water bath 501 and the water inlet pipe 502, and according to the principle of bottom-in and top-out, the heated liquid flows into the path of the disc tube 503, the first interlayer tank 202, the disc tube 503, the first interlayer tank 202 and the disc tube 503 in the direction away from the water bath 501 through the first flow path pipe 504, and the disc tube 503 farthest from the water bath 501 injects the liquid into the second interlayer tank 203 through the second flow path pipe 505, and the liquid in the second interlayer tank 203 flows through The third flow path pipe 506 flows into the adjacent second interlayer tank 203, and the liquid in the second interlayer tank 203 closest to the water bath 501 flows back into the water bath 501 through the outlet pipe 507, thereby forming an insulation circuit. Since the first interlayer tank 202 and the second interlayer tank 203 both include an interlayer space and a tank body, and since the insulation liquid flows in the interlayer space of the first interlayer tank 202 and the second interlayer tank 203 and follows the principle of bottom-in and top-out, the insulation liquid can better heat and insulate the perfusion fluid in the tank body, thereby ensuring that the temperature of the perfusion fluid is constant and reducing the influence of external factors on the experimental results.
[0027] When conducting a perfusion experiment, the isolated heart 209 is first hung and fixed on the lower end of the temperature control tube 201, and the temperature control tube 201 is inserted into the artery of the isolated heart 209, and then different drugs are injected into the first sandwich tank 202 and the second sandwich tank 203. When different drugs are injected into the isolated heart 209 at the same time for a perfusion experiment, the peristaltic pump 208 is first started, and the perfusion flow rate is adjusted so that the peristaltic pump 208 absorbs the drugs in the first sandwich tank 202 and the second sandwich tank 203 under the action of negative pressure through the first hose 205, the three-way valve 204 and the second hose 207, and the perfusion The fluid is injected into the temperature control tube 201 through the first hose 205. Since the disc tube 503 is located in the temperature control tube 201, the perfusion fluid in the temperature control tube 201 can be better heated and kept warm, ensuring that the perfusion fluid can maintain the normal physiological activities of the isolated heart 209 in the outside world and reduce the impact of external factors on the experimental results. After the perfusion fluid in the temperature control tube 201 is injected into the isolated heart 209, the second hose 207 can be connected to different second interlayer tanks 203 to achieve perfusion experiments on multiple isolated hearts 209 under different conditions or with different drugs at the same time, and at this time, the experimental data under different conditions can be recorded.
[0028] In summary, through the configuration of the perfusion component 2 and the constant temperature component 5, not only can the isolated heart 209 be subjected to perfusion experiments with multiple drugs or under different conditions simultaneously or independently, thereby improving the experimental efficiency and data comparability, but also multiple isolated hearts 209 can be subjected to perfusion experiments simultaneously, thereby improving the experimental efficiency and flexibility, and supporting the free switching of multiple perfusion fluids to meet various experimental requirements. At the same time, the constant temperature component 5 can maintain the temperature of the perfusion fluid constant to ensure that the perfusion fluid can maintain the normal in vitro physiological activities of the isolated heart 209. The configuration of the peristaltic pump 208 can accurately control the outflow rate of the perfusion fluid to meet the requirements of simulating the cardiac output of different model animals, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the experimental results and further improving the efficiency and diversity of the experiments on the isolated heart 209. Embodiment 2
[0029] In the above process, it is found that when the perfusion experiment is performed, since the liquid in the constant temperature component 5 forms a constant temperature circuit, and there is unexhausted gas in the first hose 205 and the second hose 207, it is not conducive to heating and keeping the perfusion liquid warm. At the same time, the heating and insulation of the perfusion liquid are not in place, resulting in the perfusion liquid not reaching a constant temperature and flowing into the isolated heart 209, resulting in a large temperature error, which is not only not conducive to the normal physiological activities of the isolated heart 209 in the outside world, but also easily affects the experimental results. Therefore, further improvements are made based on the above embodiments.
[0030] like Figures 6 to 12As shown, the temperature control guide component 3 is arranged in the temperature control tube 201, and the temperature control guide component 3 also includes a guide column 301 fixedly connected to the temperature control tube 201, and a transversely extending and through-going guide groove 302 is provided in the guide column 301, and a perfusion groove 303 connected to the guide groove 302 is provided on the guide column 301, and baffles 305 are hinged at both ends of the guide groove 302 through a rotating shaft 304. When one of the baffles 305 blocks the guide groove 302, the other baffle 305 no longer blocks the guide groove 302.
[0031] The adjusting component 4 is arranged inside the guide column 301, and is used for adjusting the blocking state of the baffle 305. The adjusting component 4 includes a receiving groove 401 opened on the guide column 301, a piston cylinder 402 with closed two ends is fixedly connected in the receiving groove 401, a piston plate 403 is slidably connected in the piston cylinder 402, both ends of the piston cylinder 402 are connected to an air pipe 404, and both ends of the receiving groove 401 are fixedly connected to an adjusting box 405, the free end of the air pipe 404 is connected to the corresponding adjusting box 405, the end of the rotating shaft 304 close to the receiving groove 401 passes through the corresponding adjusting box 405, and the rotating shaft 304 is fixedly connected to an adjusting plate 406 that is slidably connected to the inside of the adjusting box 405.
[0032] A push block 407 is fixedly connected to the piston plate 403, and one end of the push block 407 away from the piston plate 403 extends out of the piston cylinder 402 and is slidably connected to the piston cylinder 402. A guide groove 408 is provided on the end surface of the push block 407 away from the piston plate 403, and a push rod 409 is slidably connected in the accommodating groove 401. The free end of the push rod 409 is fixedly connected to an insertion rod 410, and the insertion rod 410 is inserted into the guide groove 408. When the push rod 409 slides, the push block 407 slides back and forth along the axial direction of the piston cylinder 402 under the action of the guide groove 408.
[0033] Two longitudinally distributed metal sheets 411 are fixedly connected in the receiving groove 401. The thermal expansion coefficients of the two metal sheets 411 are different, and the thermal expansion coefficient of the metal sheet 411 close to the top rod 409 is small. The end of the top rod 409 away from the push block 407 is fixedly connected to the metal sheet 411. The perfusion groove 303 and the receiving groove 401 are connected through the heat conducting plate 412, and the metal sheet 411 close to the perfusion groove 303 is in contact with the heat conducting plate 412.
[0034] A positioning block 413 in contact with the rotating shaft 304 is fixedly connected inside the regulating box 405 . The connection port between the air pipe 404 and the regulating box 405 is located between the positioning block 413 and the regulating plate 406 , and is closer to the positioning block 413 .
[0035] The first hose 205 is connected to a branch pipe 206 , the free end of which extends into the temperature control tube 201 and communicates with one end of the guide groove 302 . A one-way valve is provided in the branch pipe 206 , and the liquid in the branch pipe 206 flows unidirectionally toward the first hose 205 .
[0036] In actual use, when the perfusion fluid that has not been heated to a constant temperature flows into the temperature control tube 201, the perfusion groove 303 and the guide groove 302 formed on the guide column 301 form an inverted T shape, so that one end of the guide groove 302 is connected to the inside of the temperature control tube 201, and the other end of the guide groove 302 is connected to the first hose 205 through the branch pipe 206, and one baffle 305 blocks the guide groove 302 flowing to the temperature control tube 201, and the other baffle 305 does not block the guide groove 302 flowing to the branch pipe 206. In this state, when the temperature of the perfusion fluid flowing into the perfusion trough 303 does not reach a constant temperature, the perfusion fluid flows into the branch pipe 206 through the perfusion trough 303 and the guide trough 302. Since a one-way valve is provided in the branch pipe 206, the perfusion fluid can only flow toward the first hose 205. At this time, the perfusion fluid will not flow into the isolated heart 209 through the temperature control tube 201, and the perfusion fluid will flow into the first hose 205 again through the branch pipe 206, thereby preventing too much perfusion fluid from being retained in the temperature control tube 201.
[0037] When the refluxed perfusion fluid is heated again through the first hose 205 and flows into the temperature control tube 201, the temperature of the perfusion fluid flowing into the perfusion tank 303 reaches a constant temperature. The temperature of the perfusion fluid is transferred to the metal sheet 411 in the receiving tank 401 through the heat conducting plate 412. Since the thermal expansion coefficients of the two metal sheets 411 are different, the metal sheet 411 is bent toward the push rod 409 due to thermal expansion, so that the deformation of the metal sheet 411 drives the push rod 409 to slide, and the push rod 409 slides toward the direction close to the piston cylinder 402. Since the shape of the guide groove 408 is an isosceles trapezoid, it should be noted that due to the large angle of the inclined groove of the guide groove 408, the push rod 409 slides a small distance, which can make the push block 407 slide a large distance (and can also be moved by the lever). When the push rod 409 drives the insertion rod 410 to slide from the inclined groove of the guide groove 408 to the vertical groove, the push rod 409 drives the push block 407 to slide in the direction of the branch pipe 206 through the insertion rod 410 and the guide groove 408, and the push block 407 drives the piston plate 403 to slide, so that the piston plate 403 pushes the gas in the piston cylinder 402 to squeeze into the regulating box 405 through the air pipe 404, and the connecting port of the air pipe 404 and the regulating box 405 is located between the positioning block 413 and the regulating plate 406, and the gas squeezed into the positioning block 413 and the regulating plate 406 drives the regulating plate 406 to rotate along the regulating box 405, so that the regulating plate 406 drives a baffle 305 to swing through the rotating shaft 304, and gradually blocks the guide groove 302 flowing to the branch pipe 206.
[0038] When a baffle 305 gradually blocks the guide groove 302 flowing toward the branch pipe 206, the angle of the baffle 305 changes and it can be affected by the gravity of the perfusion fluid, so that the swing of the baffle 305 can be accelerated, and the guide groove 302 flowing toward the branch pipe 206 can be quickly blocked. At the same time, the piston plate 403 sucks the gas in the regulating box 405 away from the branch pipe 206 into the piston cylinder 402 through the trachea 404, so that the gas pressure between the side of the regulating plate 406 close to the trachea 404 and the positioning block 413 is reduced, so that the gas pressure on the side of the regulating plate 406 away from the trachea 404 is strong. Under the action, the adjustment plate 406 rotates along the adjustment box 405 toward the trachea 404, and the adjustment plate 406 drives the other baffle 305 to swing toward the perfusion groove 303 through the rotating shaft 304, so that the other baffle 305 no longer blocks the guide groove 302 flowing to the temperature control tube 201. At this time, the perfusion fluid that reaches a constant temperature flows to the bottom of the temperature control tube 201 through the perfusion groove 303 and the guide groove 302, and flows into the isolated heart 209, so that the perfusion fluid maintains the normal physiological activities of the isolated heart 209 in the outside world, thereby conducting experiments on the isolated heart 209 and ensuring the accuracy of the experimental data.
[0039] When the temperature of the perfusion fluid is too high, the heat is transferred to the metal sheet 411 through the heat conducting plate 412. Since the thermal expansion coefficient of the metal sheet 411 close to the heat conducting plate 412 is greater than the thermal expansion coefficient of the metal sheet 411 far from the heat conducting plate 412, the metal sheet 411 expands and deforms again to drive the push rod 409 to slide in the direction close to the piston cylinder 402. Since the shape of the guide groove 408 is an isosceles trapezoid, when the push rod 409 drives the insertion rod 410 to slide from the vertical groove of the guide groove 408 to the inclined groove, the push rod 409 drives the push block 407 to slide in the direction away from the branch pipe 206 through the insertion rod 410 and the guide groove 408, and the push block 407 drives the piston plate 403 to slide, so that the piston plate 403 pushes the gas in the piston cylinder 402 to squeeze into the direction away from the branch pipe 206 through the air pipe 404. 6, the gas squeezed into the positioning block 413 and the adjusting plate 406 drives the adjusting plate 406 to rotate along the adjusting box 405, so that the adjusting plate 406 drives the baffle 305 away from the branch pipe 206 to swing and block the guide groove 302 again through the rotating shaft 304, and at the same time, the piston plate 403 absorbs the gas in the regulating box 405 through the air pipe 404, so that the baffle 305 close to the branch pipe 206 no longer blocks the guide groove 302, and the perfusion fluid is prompted to flow from the guide groove 302 to the branch pipe 206 and the first hose 205 to circulate, so as to avoid the perfusion fluid with too high temperature from being injected into the isolated heart 209, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the experimental data. When the perfusion is no longer performed, the metal sheet 411 dissipates heat and recovers. At this time, the above movement is repeated in the direction to restore the two baffles 305 to the initial state.
[0040] In summary, the perfusion liquid temperature is sensed by the heat conducting plate 412 and the metal sheet 411, so that when the temperature does not reach a constant temperature, the perfusion liquid can only flow from the guide groove 302 through the branch pipe 206 and flow to the first hose 205 again under the action of the peristaltic pump 208, so that the perfusion liquid circulates, and at the same time, a large amount of perfusion liquid is prevented from accumulating in the temperature control tube 201, and the problem of uncontrollable perfusion rate is avoided. When the perfusion liquid temperature reaches a constant temperature, under the action of the metal sheet 411 with different thermal expansion coefficients, the metal sheet 411 drives the two hoses 205 through the adjustment component 4. The baffles 305 swing to another state, so that the perfusion fluid flows from the guide groove 302 into the bottom of the temperature control tube 201 and into the isolated heart 209 for perfusion experiment. When the temperature of the perfusion fluid is too high, the metal sheet 411 can drive the two baffles 305 to change their states again through the adjustment component 4, so that the perfusion fluid flows through the branch pipe 206 to the first hose 205 for circulation. In this way, it can not only ensure that the perfusion fluid flows to the isolated heart 209 at a constant temperature, but also ensure that the perfusion fluid can maintain the normal physiological activities of the isolated heart 209, while ensuring the accuracy of the experimental data.
