Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of urological stents, in particular to a urological stent with a drug releasing function. Background Art
[0002] Ureteral stenosis is a very common disease in the diagnosis and treatment of clinical diseases in urology. Once it occurs, it often causes symptoms such as ureteral dilatation and hydronephrosis above the stenotic segment, affecting the normal excretion of the ipsilateral kidney, seriously affecting the function of the ipsilateral kidney, and even causing the kidney on that side to lose its function. Early and active treatment should be given after clinical discovery. When urological stents are used, the surface of the stent is usually coated with drugs, so that the drugs can be released during expansion to promote repair.
[0003] However, when the stent is pushed, the stent may slip before reaching the patient, causing the stent to be displaced, and when the balloon tube is inflated by the balloon, external odors or bacteria can easily enter the balloon tube. When the balloon tube is slightly damaged, it can easily cause internal infection in the patient. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In response to this, we have proposed a urological stent with drug release function. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a urological stent with a drug release function to solve the problem raised in the above-mentioned background technology that when the stent is pushed, the stent may slip before reaching the patient's site, causing the stent to be displaced, and when the balloon tube is inflated by a balloon, external odors or bacteria can easily enter the balloon tube, and when the balloon tube is slightly damaged, it can easily cause internal infection in the patient.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a urological surgical stent with a drug release function, comprising a balloon, an airbag tube and a stent structure, wherein the balloon and the airbag tube are connected via an air inlet pipe, and the stent structure is arranged on the outer surface of the airbag tube, and a connecting seat is arranged between the connection between the balloon and the air inlet pipe, and a connecting groove is arranged inside the connecting seat, and an activated carbon filter plate is detachably connected to the inside of the connecting groove, and a guide column is connected to the end of the airbag tube away from the air inlet pipe, and a camera and a searchlight are arranged at the end of the guide column away from the airbag tube, and the stent structure comprises a grid stent, a polymer layer and a drug layer, the polymer layer is wrapped around the outer surface of the grid stent, and the drug layer is wrapped around the outer surface of the polymer layer, and a drug storage bag is arranged between the airbag tube and the stent structure, and a plurality of protrusions are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the drug storage bag, and the protrusions penetrate through the interior of the grid stent and are clamped.
[0006] Preferably, one end of the medicine storage bag is threadedly connected to a sealing cover, and a through hole is provided on the surface of each of the protrusions to be connected to the inside of the medicine storage bag.
[0007] Preferably, one end of the balloon away from the air inlet pipe is connected to a one-way valve, and one end of the air inlet pipe close to the balloon is connected to a deflation valve.
[0008] Preferably, driving cavities are provided on both sides of the connecting seat close to the upper end, and movable cavities are provided below the two driving cavities and inside the connecting seat.
[0009] Preferably, one end of the two driving cavities is fixedly connected with an internal thread ring, and both sides of the outer surface of the connecting seat are threadedly connected with a semi-threaded rod extending into the driving cavity through the internal thread ring.
[0010] Preferably, the interiors of the two active cavities are movably connected with a connecting rod extending through the driving cavity, the bottom end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a limiting block, a spring is fixedly connected between the upper end of the limiting block and the top end of the inner wall of the active cavity, and the spring is wrapped around the outer surface of the connecting rod.
[0011] Preferably, one end of the semi-threaded rod close to the inside of the driving cavity and the top end of the connecting rod are both arranged in an inclined surface, and the semi-threaded rod is in sliding contact with the inclined surface of the connecting rod, and one end of the limit block movably extends through the inside of the connecting groove.
[0012] Preferably, the outer surface of the activated carbon filter plate is sealed to the inner wall of the connecting groove by a sealing gasket, and limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the upper end of the activated carbon filter plate, and the limiting block extends through one end of the connecting groove and is plugged into the corresponding limiting groove.
[0013] Preferably, the grid stent is a cylindrical structure woven from nickel-titanium alloy wires.
[0014] Preferably, the polymer layer is made of a biodegradable polymer.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The present invention loads the drug body into the drug storage bag, and coats the drug layer on the outer surface of the stent structure. The polymer layer is a biodegradable polymer, so that the drug has better compatibility and degradability, and can be gradually decomposed in the body. Then, the balloon tube is pushed into the ureter, and the bumps on the outer surface of the drug storage bag are clamped on the outer surface of the grid stent, so that the stent structure can be prevented from being detached. 2. When the present invention moves to the patient's site through the balloon tube and the stent structure, the balloon is squeezed to allow external gas to enter the balloon through the one-way valve, and is filtered and adsorbed by the activated carbon filter plate, thereby preventing external odor or bacteria from easily entering the balloon tube. The gas is transported to the inside of the balloon tube through the air inlet pipe, and then the balloon tube is expanded, driving the grid stent support to expand, thereby supporting the stenosis or obstruction, and then the drug layer on the outer surface of the polymer layer is released to the lesion for repair, and the balloon tube is expanded to squeeze the drug storage bag, so that the drug inside the drug storage bag is released through the through hole, thereby preventing the drug on the outer surface from being used up before the balloon tube reaches the lesion; 3. The present invention rotates the semi-threaded rod so that the semi-threaded rod thread rotates with the internal threaded ring, thereby releasing the contact with the connecting rod. Then the spring on the outer surface of the connecting rod releases the elastic force and resets, thereby driving the limit block to disengage from the limit groove and move and shrink back into the active cavity. Then the activated carbon filter plate can be taken out from the inside of the connecting groove for replacement, avoiding over-adsorption of the activated carbon filter plate, which affects the use of the balloon and the airbag tube.

[0020] One end of the medicine storage bag 11 is threadedly connected to a sealing cover 12, and the surface of each protrusion 13 is provided with a through hole 1301 that is connected to the inside of the medicine storage bag 11. The medicine body is loaded into the inside of the medicine storage bag 11 and then expanded through the airbag tube 2, thereby squeezing the medicine storage bag 11, so that the medicine inside the medicine storage bag 11 is released through the through hole 1301, thereby preventing the airbag tube 2 from reaching the lesion before the medicine on the outer surface is used up. The polymer layer 402 is made of a biodegradable polymer, and the polymer layer 402 is a biodegradable polymer, so that the drug has better compatibility and degradability, and can be gradually decomposed in the body.
