Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ligation, and relates to a lead wire ligation device and a ligation method. Background Art

[0002] For most of the vegetation or excess soft tissue in the human body, surgical removal is generally used, which usually achieves good treatment results. However, for some vegetation or soft tissue, such as some hemangiomas and left atrial appendages, which are not suitable for removal, ligation or closure is often the only treatment method. Most of the ligation or closure products on the market are surgical medical devices, which need to be operated through surgery, are more traumatic, and take a long time to recover after surgery.

[0003] With the rapid development of interventional medical technology in recent years, transcatheter products have emerged. One type is occlusion devices, such as the Watchman system, LAmbre system, and WaveCrest system. This type of product enters the left atrium through atrial septal puncture and implants the occluder at the root of the left atrial appendage. It has high requirements for the operator's operation and has the risk of causing secondary thrombosis. The other type is the clamping device, which is further divided into the clamp type and the ligation snare type. The clamp type is through epicardial intervention. The clamp is wrapped or clamped at the root of the left atrial appendage in an open state, and then the delivery device is withdrawn to close the clamp and close the left atrial appendage. The operation is relatively simple, but the shape of the clamp is fixed, and the clamping force is also certain. The left atrial appendage of a person varies greatly from person to person, so the adaptability of the clamp is poor. The ligation snare type usually includes a transepicardial snare device and a magnetic suction device for locating and capturing the left atrial appendage through atrial septal puncture. One end of the magnet passes through the inferior vena cava through the atrial septum to the inner tip of the left atrial appendage, and the other end punctures the epicardium to the outside of the left atrial appendage tip, and the left atrial appendage is captured by magnetic attraction. The snare passes through the outer magnet of the left atrial appendage to trap the left atrial appendage, and at the same time, the balloon dilatation at the inner root of the left atrial appendage pushes the line sleeve to the root of the left atrial appendage to complete the ligation and block the left atrial appendage. However, the snare and the flexible end of the handle of this system are not rigid enough, and there are safety hazards for the operation of irregular left atrial appendages. It also requires two interventions in the heart and the epicardium. The process is cumbersome and there are safety hazards. There is also a risk of secondary thrombosis. The ligation snare system also includes a transepicardial snare device and a positioning capture device, which needs to be positioned first and then the root is ligated with a snare.

The operator can pull the distal handle 12 from the distal end to drive the traction head 10 to lead the ligation assembly 5 to move to the distal end for tightening.

[0077] like Figure 4As shown, the pushing assembly 1 includes a clamping body fixing part 15 and a multi-cavity fixing part 16. The clamping body fixing part 15 is provided with a plurality of lead-out cavities. The proximal end of the clamping body fixing part 15 is connected to the clamping assembly 4.

The flexible hose 11 of the hooking wire assembly 3 passes through a lead-out cavity of the clamping body fixing part 15, so that the traction head 10 is connected to the ligation assembly 5 at the proximal end.

[0078] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the pushing assembly 1 further includes a guide wire flexible tube 24 , and the proximal end of the guide wire flexible tube 24 is connected to a lead-out cavity of the clamping body fixing member 15 .

[0079] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the clamping assembly 4 includes a first clamping body 13, a second clamping body 27 and a pulling rod 14. The first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 are independently connected to the pushing assembly 1, the proximal end of the pulling rod 14 is independently and movably connected to the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27, and the distal end of the pulling rod 14 is transmission-connected to the handle, and the handle is used to drive the pulling rod 14 to move axially toward the proximal end or toward the distal end to realize the opening and closing of the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27.

[0080] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the handle also includes an active trigger 17, an "L"-shaped buckle 18 and a fixed handle 19. One end of the "L"-shaped buckle 18 is connected to the pulling rod 14, and the other end is hinged to the active trigger 17. Specifically, an extension portion 1411 is provided at the distal end of the pulling rod 14 for connecting the "L"-shaped buckle 18, and the "L"-shaped buckle 18 is hinged to the active trigger 17 through a pin 32. The active trigger 17 is also rotatably connected to the fixed handle 19, and the fixed handle 19 is fixedly connected to the shell 2. The pulling rod 14 is also fixedly connected to the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 respectively through a fixing pin 30.

The active trigger 17 is rotatably connected to the fixed handle 19 through a fixed shaft 31, and the fixed shaft 31 is fixed to the shell 2. As shown Fig. 9 As shown, a connecting spring 50 is provided between the bottom of the movable trigger 17 and the bottom of the fixed handle 19. A limited rotation shaft 33 is also provided on the fixed handle 19 to limit the rotation of the "L"-shaped buckle 18 and prevent the clamping assembly 4 from being excessively opened.

[0081] During the application of the present invention, the operator holds the fixed handle 19, and when the movable trigger 17 is rotated along the first direction, the "L"-shaped buckle 18 is driven to pull the pulling rod 14 axially toward the distal end, and the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 at the proximal end are in an open state with acute angle structures such as "V"-shaped, "C"-shaped or "U"-shaped; when the movable trigger 17 is rotated along the second direction, the "L"-shaped buckle 18 is driven to push the pulling rod 14 axially toward the proximal end, and the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 are in a closed state to clamp the target tissue.

[0082] The proximal ends of the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 are respectively arc-shapedly transitioned in the direction of approaching each other. The surface of the side where the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 are close to each other is independently provided with a de-line opening, and the de-line opening is provided with a tearable film layer. The tearable film layer in the present invention can be torn apart, and can be a polymer material, such as PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene), EPTFE (Expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene), silicone or a composite material. The outer surfaces of the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 are independently coated with a thin film layer, preferably a heat shrinkable film. The thin film layer can be a sleeve structure, a braided structure, or a coating structure, and the present invention does not make specific limitations on this.

[0083] The first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 are independently fixedly connected to the clamping body fixing member 15.

At the same time, near the limiting grooves 1311, the pulling rod 14, the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 are fixedly connected by a fixing pin 30. Specifically, the fixing pin 30 passes through the pulling rod 14, the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 in sequence, and its two ends are fixedly connected to the clamping body fixing member 15.

[0084] like Figure 5 , Fig.10 and Fig.11As shown, the ligation assembly 5 includes a first multi-lumen tube 25, a second multi-lumen tube 26 and a traction line 20. The first multi-lumen tube 25 and the second multi-lumen tube 26 are independently pre-loaded in the clamping assembly 4. The traction line 20 is introduced by the first multi-lumen tube 25, and forms a reserved knot 3011 in the first multi-lumen tube 25 before entering the second multi-lumen tube 26, and then extends out of the second multi-lumen tube 26. The hook assembly 3 is used to capture the traction line 20 extending from the second multi-lumen tube 26, and drive the traction line 20 to pass through the reserved knot 3011 and move to the distal end and then tighten.

[0085] At least two upper cavities connected to each other are provided in the first multi-lumen tube 25. Among them, at least one upper cavity is used for introducing the traction line at the distal end, and at least one upper cavity is used for loading the reserved knot 3011. Specifically, the traction line 20 is introduced from the distal end of one upper cavity, and enters the other upper cavity from the proximal end to form the reserved knot 3011, and then introduced into the second multi-lumen tube 26. The surface of the upper cavity is provided with a hydrophilic coating. The inner surface of the second multi-lumen tube 26 is also provided with a hydrophilic coating to facilitate the sliding of the traction line 20 in the lower cavity.

[0086] Specifically, the first multi-lumen tube 25 and the second multi-lumen tube 26 are pre-loaded in the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27, respectively. The first multi-lumen tube 25 and the second multi-lumen tube 26 are respectively close to the inner wall of the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27. And the first multi-lumen tube 25 and the second multi-lumen tube 26 are respectively and independently provided with a first lead wire opening and a second lead wire opening on the surface of one side close to each other. In the application process of the present invention, as the traction head 10 leads out the traction wire 20, the traction wire 20 located in the first multi-lumen tube 25 flows out from the first lead wire opening into the first clamping body 13, and then escapes from the line-off opening of the first clamping body 13, and the traction wire 20 located in the second multi-lumen tube 26 flows out from the second lead wire opening into the second clamping body 27, and then escapes from the line-off opening of the second clamping body 27, tightening the target tissue, and after the system is withdrawn, the traction wire 20 remains on the target tissue.

[0087] Specifically, Fig.12 and Fig.13As shown, three upper cavities are arranged in the first multi-lumen tube 25, which are respectively denoted as the first upper cavity 2511, the second upper cavity 2512 and the third upper cavity 2513. Five lower cavities are arranged in sequence in parallel in the second multi-lumen tube 26, which are respectively denoted as the first lower cavity 2611, the second lower cavity 2612, the third lower cavity 2613, the fourth lower cavity 2614 and the fifth lower cavity 2615. The third upper cavity 2513 is a "C"-shaped cavity, and the opening of the "C"-shaped cavity faces the second multi-lumen tube 26. The first upper cavity 2511, the second upper cavity 2512 and the third upper cavity 2513 are interconnected, and at the same time, the first lower cavity 2611, the second lower cavity 2612, the third lower cavity 2613, the fourth lower cavity 2614 and the fifth lower cavity 2615 are interconnected. The traction line 20 at the distal end enters from the first upper cavity 2511, passes through the first upper cavity 2511, enters from the proximal end into the third upper cavity 2513 to form a reserved knot 3011, then passes through the third upper cavity 2513, enters from the proximal end of the second upper cavity 2512, and enters the second multi-lumen tube 26 after passing through the second upper cavity 2512. The traction line 20 entering the second multi-lumen tube 26 from the distal end passes through the first lower cavity 2611 and enters from the proximal end of the second lower cavity 2612, then passes through the third lower cavity 2613, the fourth lower cavity 2614 and the fifth lower cavity 2615 in sequence, and passes through the second multi-lumen tube 26 from the proximal end of the fifth lower cavity 2615. The first lower cavity 2611, the second lower cavity 2612, the third lower cavity 2613, the fourth lower cavity 2614 and the fifth lower cavity 2615 are all "C"-shaped grooves. The surfaces of the first upper cavity 2511, the second upper cavity 2512, the third upper cavity 2513, and the first lower cavity 2611, the second lower cavity 2612, the third lower cavity 2613, the fourth lower cavity 2614 and the fifth lower cavity 2615 of the present invention are all provided with a hydrophilic coating to facilitate the sliding of the traction line 20 in the cavity.

[0088] The traction head 10 and the traction line 20 are connected by clamping, hooking, snapping or magnetic attraction. That is, the present invention provides the following exemplary solutions for the connection between the traction head 10 and the traction line 20: (1) Fig.10 As shown, the traction head 10 is a clamping member that realizes the clamping function by hinged connection, and can clamp the second end of the traction line 20 for connection. (2) Fig.14 As shown, the traction head 10 is a hook structure, the second end of the traction line 20 is knotted to form a line loop, and the traction head 10 hooks the line loop for connection.

[0089] like Figure 5 As shown, the ligation assembly 5 further includes a Luer connector 21 and a lead wire flexible tube 22. The Luer connector 21 is disposed at the distal end of the handle. The proximal end of the lead wire flexible tube 22 is connected to the first multi-lumen tube 25 through the pushing assembly 1. The distal end of the lead wire flexible tube 22 is connected to the Luer connector 21. The traction wire 20 is connected by the Luer connector 21 and enters the first multi-lumen tube 25 through the lead wire flexible tube 22. The proximal end of the lead wire flexible tube 22 is connected to a lead-out cavity of the clamping body fixing member 15 of the pushing assembly 1, so that the traction wire 20 can smoothly pass through the pushing assembly 1 and enter the first multi-lumen tube 25.

[0090] In the present invention, the traction line 20 has a first end and a second end, the first end is fixed by a Luer connector 21, the traction line 20 passes through the lead wire flexible tube 22 and enters the first multi-lumen tube 25, and is sequentially wound between the first multi-lumen tube 25 and the second multi-lumen tube 26, and the second end extends out of the second multi-lumen tube 26, the traction head 10 of the hook wire assembly 3 is connected to the second end of the traction line 20, and under the pull of the distal handle 12, the second end of the traction line 20 is driven to move distally to tighten the traction line 20. After the ligation is completed, the Luer connector 21 is untied, the first end of the traction line 20 is loosened, and the system is withdrawn so that the traction line 20 remains on the tissue.

[0091] In some embodiments, Fig.17 As shown, the ligation assembly 5 also includes an inner support tube 36, the proximal end of the inner support tube 36 extends into the first multi-lumen tube 25, the distal end of the inner support tube 36 is transmission-connected to the handle, the reserved knot 3011 is arranged on the outer wall of the inner support tube 36, and a plurality of fixed rope buckles 2621 are also arranged on the traction line 20 in the second multi-lumen tube 26, the traction head 10 passes through the inner support tube 36 and extends from the first multi-lumen tube 25 to flexibly connect the traction line 20 extended from the second multi-lumen tube 26, and the handle is used to drive the inner support tube 36 to disengage from the reserved knot 3011.

[0092] like Fig.18 As shown, the handle includes a toggle component, which includes a toggle block 34, a coupling 35, a connecting pin 37 and a driving shaft 38. The coupling 35 is connected to the inner support tube 36. One end of the toggle block 34 is movably connected to the coupling 35 through the connecting pin 37, and the other end extends out of the shell 2. The toggle block 34 is rotatably connected to the shell 2 through the driving shaft 38.

[0093] Specifically, the proximal end of the inner support tube 36 extends into the third upper cavity 2513 of the first multi-lumen tube 25, and the distal end of the inner support tube 36 passes through the lead-out cavity of the clamping body fixing member 15 to connect the toggle component. The traction line 20 enters the first multi-lumen tube 25 from the distal end of the first upper cavity 2511, passes through the first upper cavity 2511, enters the third upper cavity 2513, wraps around the outer wall of the inner support tube 36 to form a reserved knot 3011, passes through the third upper cavity 2513, enters the second upper cavity 2512 from the proximal end, and then passes through the distal end and is introduced into the first lower cavity 2611 of the second multi-lumen tube 26. The fixed rope buckle 2621 is located on the traction line 20 in the first lower cavity 2611.

[0094] During the application of the present invention, after the wire hooking assembly 3 captures the traction wire 20 extending from the second multi-lumen tube 26, the operator moves the shifting block 34 at the distal end to drive the coupling 35 to move, thereby driving the inner support tube 36 to move toward the distal end and escape from the reserved knot 3011. The housing 2 of the present invention is also provided with a second opening, and the shifting block 34 extends from the second opening for shifting.

[0095] In the present invention, the first end of the traction line 20 is fixed by the Luer connector 21, and the second end of the traction line 20 passes through the lead wire flexible tube 22 and enters the first multi-lumen tube 25 from the distal end of the first upper cavity 2511, and then passes through the first upper cavity 2511 to enter the proximal end of the third upper cavity 2513 to form a reserved knot 3011, and then passes through the third upper cavity 2513, enters the second upper cavity 2512 from the proximal end, enters the second multi-lumen tube 26, and is sequentially wound around each lower cavity of the second multi-lumen tube 26. The second end of the traction line 20 extends out of the second multi-lumen tube 26, and the traction head 10 is connected to the second end of the traction line 20. Under the pulling of the distal handle 12, the second end of the traction line 20 is driven to move distally along the inner support tube 36 until the fixed rope buckle 2621 on the traction line 20 passes through the reserved knot 3011 to ensure unidirectional sliding, and the traction line 20 continues to be tightened. After the ligation is completed, the Luer connector 21 is untied, the first end of the traction line 20 is loosened, and the system is withdrawn so that the traction line 20 remains on the tissue.

[0096] In some embodiments, the ligation assembly 5 also includes a tightening buckle 60, which is arranged in the first multi-lumen tube 25, and the tightening buckle 60 is located at the proximal end of the reserved knot 3011. The tightening buckle 60 opens a first guide wire channel 62 and a second guide wire channel 63 that are connected to each other; the traction line 20 entering the first multi-lumen tube 25 passes through the second guide wire channel 63, and after forming the reserved knot 3011 in the first multi-lumen tube 25, it is introduced into the second multi-lumen tube 26, and the hook wire assembly 3 drives the traction line 20 extending from the second multi-lumen tube 26 to pass through the first guide wire channel 62 and the reserved knot 3011 in turn and move toward the distal end.

[0097] The inner wall of the first guide wire channel 62 is provided with a first limiting thorn 61, the tip of which points to the distal end. The inner wall of the second guide wire channel 63 is provided with a second limiting thorn 64, the tip of which points to the proximal end.

[0098] During the application of the present invention, the traction line 20 introduced into the first upper cavity 2511 of the first multi-lumen tube 25 can first pass through the second guide wire channel 63, and be ensured to slide in one direction by the second limiting thorn 64, and then enter the third upper cavity 2513. After the reserved knot 3011 is formed inside, it is introduced into the second multi-lumen tube 26 from the distal end of the second upper cavity 2512 of the first multi-lumen tube 25. The traction head 10 is used to drive the traction line 20 to pass through the first guide wire channel 62 of the tightening buckle 60, and then the traction line 20 is passed out from the reserved knot 3011, and is ensured to slide in one direction by the first limiting thorn 61 until it is tightened to complete the knotting.

[0099] The present invention provides the following exemplary solutions for tightening the buckle 60: (1) Fig.19 and Fig. 20 As shown, the tightening buckle 60 is a cylindrical structure, which can be placed horizontally or vertically, and is provided with a first guide wire channel 62 and a second guide wire channel 63, and the inner walls of the first guide wire channel 62 and the second guide wire channel 63 are independently provided with a first limiting thorn 61 and a second limiting thorn 64, and the first limiting thorn 61 and the second limiting thorn 64 are directed in opposite directions, so as to ensure that the introduced traction line 20 and the led-out traction line 20 can slide independently in one direction. (2) As shown in FIG. Fig.21 As shown, the tightening buckle 60 is a clamping block structure with one end movably connected, and a first limiting thorn 61 and a second limiting thorn 64 are arranged on the inner wall thereof, and the first limiting thorn 61 and the second limiting thorn 64 are directed in opposite directions to ensure that the introduced traction line 20 and the led-out traction line 20 slide independently in one direction. (3) As shown Fig. 22As shown, the tightening buckle 60 is a crescent-shaped structure, and is provided with a first guide wire channel 62 and a second guide wire channel 63 that penetrate therethrough, and a first limiting thorn 61 and a second limiting thorn 64 are independently provided on the inner walls of the first guide wire channel 62 and the second guide wire channel 63, respectively, and the first limiting thorn 61 and the second limiting thorn 64 are directed in opposite directions, thereby ensuring that the introduced traction line 20 and the led-out traction line 20 slide independently in one direction.

[0100] In some embodiments, Fig.23 As shown, the ligation assembly 5 further includes a knotting rope ring 70, which is disposed in the first multi-lumen tube 25 and sleeved on the outer periphery of the reserved rope knot 3011. Specifically, after the traction line 20 introduced into the first multi-lumen tube 25 is wound to form the reserved rope knot 3011, it is then wound around the reserved rope knot 3011 for at least one cycle to form the knotting rope ring 70 and lead it into the second multi-lumen tube 26. The hooking wire assembly 3 passes the traction line 20 extending from the second multi-lumen tube 26 through the reserved rope knot 3011 and moves toward the distal end, so that the knotting rope ring 70 tightens the reserved rope knot 3011.

[0101] In another specific embodiment, the present invention provides a lead ligation method, which uses a lead ligation device described in a specific embodiment. The lead ligation method includes: transporting the pushing component 1 to the outer edge of the target tissue, releasing the clamping component 4 to the root of the target tissue, and after capturing the target tissue, fixing the ligation component 5 to the target tissue through the hook wire component 3 and then tightening it.

[0102] In some embodiments, the lead ligation method specifically includes: the hook wire assembly 3 drives the traction wire 20 to move, so that the fixed rope buckle 2621 passes through the reserved knot 3011, and the toggle component is used to drive the inner support tube 36 to move toward the distal end, so that the inner support tube 36 is disengaged from the reserved knot 3011, and the traction wire 20 is led out to tighten the target tissue, and then the Luer connector 21 is loosened, and the pushing assembly 1 is withdrawn, so that the traction wire 20 remains on the target tissue.

[0103] In the present invention, the ligation assembly 5 is preloaded in the clamping assembly 4 , a one-way sliding reserved knot 3011 is pre-set, and a plurality of fixed rope buckles 2621 are pre-evenly set at one end of the traction line 20 toward the second clamping body 27 . After the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 clamp the target tissue and close it, the wire hook assembly 3 passes through the reserved knot 3011 and clamps the traction line 20 extending from the second multi-lumen tube 26. The operator pulls the distal handle 12 to pull the traction line 20 out of the tearable film on the off-line opening of the second clamping body 27. After the fixed rope buckle 2621 passes through the reserved knot 3011, tighten the target tissue, push the toggle component forward, retract the inner support tube 36, and make it come out of the reserved knot 3011. Continue to pull the traction line 20 to tighten the reserved knot 3011, rotate the Luer connector 21, loosen all the lines, withdraw the lead system and withdraw the clamping assembly 4, leaving only the traction line 20 on the target tissue.

[0104] In some embodiments, the lead ligation method specifically includes: the hook wire assembly 3 drives the traction wire 20 to move, so that the traction wire 20 passes through the tightening buckle 60 and the reserved knot 3011 in sequence, and continues to pull the traction wire 20 to tighten the left atrial appendage to complete the knotting, and then loosens the Luer connector 21 and withdraws the pushing assembly 1, so that the traction wire 20 remains on the target tissue.

[0105] The lead ligation method specifically includes: the hook wire component 3 drives the traction wire 20 to move, so that the traction wire 20 passes through the reserved knot 3011, and continues to pull the traction wire 3011 to tighten the left atrial appendage, so that the knotting ring 70 tightens the reserved knot 3011, completes the knotting, and then loosens the Luer connector 21, withdraws the pushing component 1, so that the traction wire 20 remains on the target tissue.

[0106] The present invention can adopt a variety of delivery methods for the lead ligation device. For example, it can be delivered to the root of the soft tissue using a minimally invasive method (for example, through a small incision above, below or through the chest cavity, an incision in the costal cartilage or xiphoid cartilage, an incision below the left armpit, or a port, through the vascular system, etc.) or a surgical method (for example, a median sternotomy, a small incision sternotomy, a thoracotomy or a thoracoscopy, etc.).

The right-handed Luer connector 21 releases one end of the traction wire 20, and the other end is at the distal end of the second multi-lumen tube 26. Then, the lead ligation device is withdrawn as a whole, and the traction wire 20 is left on the left atrial appendage;

[0123] (1) Use a multi-lumen tube puncture sheath to puncture a cavity of the epicardium, and insert the coronary endoscope 2 mm into the pericardial layer to observe the front end of the chicken-wing-shaped left atrial appendage. In the above multi-lumen tube, contrast agent can also be injected into any cavity to assist in determining the position of the endoscope and the left atrial appendage;

[0124] (2) Using a catheter sheath-lumen pericardial approach, the lead ligation device is delivered to the front end of the left atrial appendage under direct endoscope vision to capture the left atrial appendage;

[0125] (3) Move the sliding member 7 to the distal end to drive the connecting rod 9 to withdraw, release the clamping assembly 4 to the outer edge of the left atrial appendage root, open the movable trigger 17 and push it forward as a whole, and use the first clamping body 13 and the second clamping body 27 to clamp the atrial appendage root and then close it;

[0126] (4) Pull the traction wire 20 in the second multi-lumen tube 26 below into the first multi-lumen tube 25 above through the traction head 10, so that the traction wire 20 passes through the reserved knot 3011 until the traction wire 20 is completely pulled out, pull the traction wire 20 to tighten the left atrial appendage, and tighten the reserved knot 3011 with the knotting ring 70 sleeved on the outer periphery of the reserved knot 3011 to complete the knotting. The right-handed Luer connector 21 releases one end of the traction wire 20, and the other end is at the distal end of the second multi-lumen tube 26. Then, the lead ligation device is withdrawn as a whole, leaving the traction wire 20 on the left atrial appendage;

[0127] (5) The left atrial appendage can be captured repeatedly. When the first capture position is not good, the sliding component 7 is pushed proximally, the clamping assembly 4 is retracted, and the clamping assembly 4 is released again at a suitable position. After the ligation is successful, the excess thread is cut off and the final left atrial angiography is performed to verify the successful ligation of the left atrial appendage.

[0128] The present invention has a single entry and exit, does not need to enter the circulation, and does not need to manage two entry and exit points, which shortens the implantation time. No device is left in the left atrial appendage, which can reduce the problems of stroke, hypertension and potential hypotension, and has a higher left atrial appendage closure rate, which can prevent thrombosis.

[0129] The applicant declares that the above is only a specific implementation mode of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention shall fall within the protection scope and disclosure scope of the present invention.
