Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical device inspection, and in particular relates to a heart valve steady-state leakage and forward flow testing device. Background Art
[0002] Artificial heart valves are medical devices that can be implanted in the heart to replace heart valves and enable blood to flow in one direction. They are mainly used for artificial heart valve replacement when the heart valve disease is serious and valve separation surgery or repair surgery cannot be used to restore or improve valve function. Artificial heart valves are Class III medical devices that are subject to national key supervision and have a high risk level. They must be strictly controlled to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
[0003] In the testing of artificial heart valves, steady-state leakage and forward flow tests are very important test items. In the industry standard GB / T 12279.1-2024 "Cardiovascular Implants Artificial Heart Valves Part 1: General Requirements", a normative overview of the steady-state leakage and forward flow test methods is given, but no specific test equipment is given.
[0004] At present, the existing heart valve steady-state leakage and forward flow test equipment is mainly designed based on the old version of the industry standard GB12279-2008 "Cardiovascular Implant Artificial Heart Valves", which does not meet the new version of the industry standard GB / T12279.1-2024 "Cardiovascular Implant Artificial Heart Valves Part 1: General Requirements" and has the following shortcomings: 1. The existing equipment has no heating device and does not meet the 37℃±2℃ requirement in the new standard.
[0005] 2. The existing equipment is only provided with a valve installation channel with a straight tube of 35 mm inner diameter, and no straight tube with a larger diameter is provided for valves larger than 35 mm.
[0006] 3. The existing equipment only has one pressure difference sensor interface in front and behind the artificial heart valve ring, which does not meet the requirements of the new standard that the pressure difference sensor interface should be located one pipe diameter upstream and three pipe diameters downstream of the artificial heart valve ring plane.
[0007] 4. The pressure values of existing equipment are fixed at 40mmHg, 80mmHg, 120mmHg, 160mmHg and 200mmHg, which does not meet the flexible selection of pressure values for adults and minors under different blood pressure conditions in the new standard.
[0008] 5. The test data obtained by manual weighing has large errors, resulting in low accuracy of the results.
[0009] The steady-state leakage and forward flow performance of artificial heart valves are very important and directly related to the quality of clinical treatment and the life safety of patients. Therefore, designing an accurate and reliable test device to detect and evaluate the quality of artificial heart valves has great practical application value and significance.
