Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a vascular closure device and system. Background Technology
[0002] To overcome the limitations of manual compression hemostasis, percutaneous arterial occlusion devices / vascular closure devices have been developed. Using these devices, hemostasis can be achieved quickly with minimal or no pressure on the blood vessel, and is unaffected by continuous anticoagulation. This occlusion technique can shorten hemostasis time and bed rest time, reducing patient suffering and the intensity of medical care.
[0003] Existing vascular closure devices include a handle and a rod-shaped assembly. The handle includes a housing and a power mechanism mounted on the housing. The rod-shaped assembly includes a first catheter, a second catheter, and a third catheter. The power mechanism includes a first propulsion device, a second propulsion device, a third propulsion device, and a fourth rotation device. The first propulsion device is connected to the first catheter to drive it along its axial direction. The second propulsion device is connected to the second catheter to drive it along its axial direction. The third propulsion device is connected to the third catheter to drive it along its axial direction. The fourth rotation device is connected to the third catheter to rotate it around its central axis. The first, second, and third catheters are sequentially fitted from the outside in, with the third catheter used to connect an implant. In a first state, the implant is located inside the first catheter, and retraction of the first catheter exposes the implant. In a second state, retraction of the first catheter allows the implant to fully deploy. In a third state, axial movement of the second catheter secures the implant to the blood vessel. In a fourth state, rotation of the third catheter around its axis puts the implant in a pre-released state. In the fifth state, movement of the third catheter along its axis can detach the implant from the third catheter. However, the handle structure of this vascular closure device is complex, making it inconvenient to operate, resulting in a longer hemostasis time and poorer hemostasis effect.

[0064] This invention proposes a blood vessel closure device.
[0065] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In some embodiments of the present invention, the vascular closure device 100 includes a delivery tube 10, an occlusion component 20, and a control component 30; the occlusion component 20 is switchably disposed within the delivery tube 10 in a retracted state and a released state; the control component 30 includes a handle housing 31 and a suture locking mechanism 32 disposed within the handle housing 31, the handle housing 31 being fixed to the proximal end of the delivery tube 10, and a suture 33 being wound within the suture locking mechanism 32, the suture 33 being connected to the occlusion component 20 via the delivery tube 10, the suture locking mechanism 32 being used to unwind and / or rewind the suture 33 to control the switching of the occlusion component 20 between the retracted state and the released state; in the retracted state, the occlusion component 20 is contained within the delivery tube 10; in the released state, the occlusion component 20 extends outside the delivery tube 10.
[0066] In this embodiment, the occlusion component 20 may employ a component or assembly capable of stopping bleeding. Preferably, it mainly refers to... Figure 3 and Figure 4 To improve the sealing effect of the vascular puncture site, the sealing component 20 may include an anchoring piece 21, a sponge 22 and a locking buckle 23. The anchoring piece 21 is connected in series with the sponge 22 via the suture 33, and the locking buckle 23 is sleeved on the suture 33. The anchoring piece 21 is used to conform to the inner wall of the blood vessel, the sponge 22 is used to seal the puncture site from the outside of the blood vessel wall, and the locking buckle 23 is used to tighten the suture 33.
[0067] In this embodiment, the anchoring piece 21 may be made of an absorbable polymer material, such as polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer or other synthetic absorbable polymers, which can be degraded into naturally occurring metabolites in the presence of water.
[0068] Sponge 22 can be made from biodegradable collagen materials, such as collagen pads made from a mixture of insoluble and soluble collagen fibers. Collagen can be obtained from the connective tissue of animals, and collagen can be purified from the subcutaneous layer of cowhide.
[0069] The latch 23 can be made of biodegradable metal material, preferably absorbable iron, stainless steel, magnesium alloy, etc., but is not limited here.
[0070] The suture 33 can be any elongated component, such as filaments, threads, or braids, and can be made of biodegradable materials.
[0071] In this embodiment, the thread locking mechanism 32 may be an automatic winding structure, a manual winding structure, or a semi-automatic winding structure capable of unwinding and / or rewinding the sewing thread 33; no specific structure is limited here.
[0072] In use, when the operator delivers the distal end of the delivery tube 10 to the target hemostatic position, they only need to operate the suture locking mechanism 32 to unwind the suture 33, which will release the occlusion component 20 stored in the delivery tube 10 to the outside of the delivery tube 10, thus completing the rapid release of the occlusion component 20. The whole process is simple to operate.
[0073] It is understood that the present invention improves the structure of the vascular closure device 100. The control component 30 with the above structure is simpler in structure than the prior art, without a complex power mechanism, which improves the convenience of operation, reduces the hemostasis time, and thus effectively improves the hemostasis effect.
[0074] To further improve the effectiveness and efficiency of unwinding and rewinding the suture 33, and to prevent the suture 33 from being too tight or too loose, so that the sealing component 20 can be released quickly and accurately to the target position, the following references are made: Figures 3 to 9 In some embodiments, the thread locking mechanism 32 may include an outer thread locking cylinder 321, an inner thread locking cylinder 322, a winding reel 323, and a thread locking cover 324. The inner thread locking cylinder 322 is partially disposed inside the outer thread locking cylinder 321 and forms a receiving cavity 32a and a lead wire channel 32b communicating with the receiving cavity 32a. The winding reel 323 is disposed inside the receiving cavity 32a. A thread guide wheel 36 is provided inside the handle housing 31. The sewing thread 33 is wound on the winding reel 323 and is led to the delivery pipe 10 in sequence through the lead wire channel 32b and the thread guide wheel 36. The thread locking cover 324 is disposed on the end of the inner thread locking cylinder 322 and presses down the winding reel 323. The locking mechanism 32 is not coaxial with the delivery tube 10. The thread guide wheel 36 can guide the sewing thread 33 to the delivery tube 10. This helps to improve the utilization of the internal space of the handle housing 31, providing sufficient space for other structures such as the guide tube 40, and improving the structural compactness of the control component 30.
[0075] In this embodiment, the main body of the outer locking cylinder 321 can be a conical cylinder or the like, and the main body of the inner locking cylinder 322 can be a circular cylinder or the like; there are no limitations here. The shape and size of the winding reel 323 can be adapted to the structure of the accommodating cavity 32a of the inner locking cylinder 322 to ensure the compactness of the overall structure of the locking mechanism 32. The shape and size of the locking cover 324 can be adapted to the end face of the inner locking cylinder 322 and the structure of the contacting winding reel 323 to ensure the reliability and stability of the installation structure.
[0076] In this embodiment, as Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the thread-locking cover 324 may be provided with a protrusion 3241 for pressing the thread, which can effectively prevent the stitch 33 at the winding reel 323 from becoming misaligned. For easy installation and disassembly and convenient manual adjustment of the winding reel 323, such as... Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the locking cover 324 may also be provided with a pinch adjustment part 3242 for the operator to pinch. The pinch adjustment part 3242 is located inside or outside the inner locking tube 322. The locking cover 324 is also used to drive the winding reel 323 to rotate under the drive of external force.
[0077] To ensure that the suture 33 moves as far as possible along the axial direction of the delivery tube 10, thereby improving the effectiveness of the sealing assembly 20 release, refer to Figures 3 to 9 In some embodiments, the thread-locking mechanism 32 may further include a thread-holding member 325, which is disposed inside the outer thread-locking tube 321 and is used to hold the sewing thread 33 in place. The thread-holding member 325 may be made of a soft material, preferably a silicone pad, but this is not limited to this.
[0078] In some embodiments, please combine Figures 3 to 6 The thread-locking mechanism 32 can be designed to be movably disposed within the handle housing 31 between a first position and a second position along the axial direction of the handle housing 31 to release the thread 33. A spring 35 is provided within the handle housing 31, and a step and an extension arm 3211 are provided on the outer thread-locking tube 321. The spring 35 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the outer thread-locking tube 321, with its two ends abutting against the step and the cavity wall near the proximal end of the movable cavity, respectively. The handle housing 31 provides a movable cavity for the thread-locking mechanism 32 to move and a sound control 37 located on one side of the thread guide 36. The main function of the spring 35 is to automatically reset and restore the thread-locking mechanism 32 to the first position after the external force applied to it is removed.
[0079] In the first position, the extension arm 3211 is separated from the acoustic control 37; in the second position, the extension arm 3211 abuts against the acoustic control 37 or the extension arm 3211 is inserted into the acoustic control 37. The acoustic control 37 is used to emit a prompt sound the instant the extension arm 3211 moves to the second position and contacts the acoustic control 37, thereby prompting the operator that the blocking component 20 has been released.
[0080] In this embodiment, the acoustic control 37 is provided with an insertion cavity having an inlet and outlet, through which the extension arm 3211 enters and exits the insertion cavity. Specifically, the acoustic control 37 can be roughly triangular in shape, with the inlet and outlet located at the apex, and horn-shaped guides can be provided on both sides of the inlet and outlet to guide the extension arm 3211 into the insertion cavity.
[0081] To further improve the accuracy and convenience of releasing the occlusion component 20 to the target position using the vascular closure device, refer to Figures 1 to 4 , Figures 10 to 17 In some embodiments, the handle housing 31 may include a housing 311 and a sliding member 312 slidably disposed at one end of the housing 311 along the axial direction of the housing 311. The sliding member 312 is provided with a buckle 3121, which is used to engage with the front seat 210 of the sheath 200 during the procedure. The locking mechanism 32 is installed inside the housing 311.
[0082] In this embodiment, the housing 311 may include a first housing and a second housing, and the inner sides of the first housing and the second housing are provided with a track for the slider of the slider 312 to move.
[0083] When the housing 311 slides, the locking mechanism 32 inside the housing 311 moves between the first position and the second position. When it moves to the second position, the suture 33 is stretched, thereby releasing the sealing component 20. When the locking mechanism 32 moves to the final restricted position, i.e. the second position, the suture 33 stops releasing.
[0084] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 1 to 4 The vascular closure device 100 may also include a cap 11, which is movably sleeved on the distal end of the delivery tube 10 and is used to be locked or blocked by the front seat 210 of the sheath 200 during the procedure. In this way, the delivery tube 10 can be easily and accurately inserted into the sheath 200, which further improves the convenience of the operation.
[0085] To facilitate operation and further improve hemostasis efficiency, refer to Figure 4 In this embodiment, a push tube 12 can also be movably sleeved on the suture 33. The push tube 12 is located on the proximal side of the buckle 23 and is used to move under the drive of external force to move the buckle 23, so as to lock the sponge 22 and the anchor plate 21.
[0086] In the initial storage state, the cap 11 is fitted onto the far end of the delivery tube 10. The white sponge 22, the buckle 23, the stitching 33, and the push tube 12 are all located inside the inner tube. The anchoring piece 21 is located in the gap between the outer wall of the delivery tube 10 and the inner wall of the cap 11, and can be tilted for easy release.
[0087] In this embodiment, the proximal end of the delivery tube 10 is connected to the handle housing 31 via the fixing seat 34. The vascular closure device may also include a guidewire tube 40 for the passage of a guidewire, facilitating the delivery of the occlusion assembly 20 to the target suture position. The guidewire tube 40 passes through the handle housing 31 and the fixing seat 34 and extends to the distal end of the delivery tube 10. The proximal end of the guidewire tube 40 is provided with a push-top for pushing the guidewire tube 40 proximal from the handle housing 31. The push-top may be the end wall inside the proximal end of the guidewire tube 40. The advance tube 12 is provided with a guidewire lumen for allowing the guidewire tube 40 to pass through and a suture lumen for allowing the suture 33 to pass through.
[0088] The present invention also proposes a vascular closure system, referring to Figures 10 to 17 The vascular closure system includes a vascular closure device 100. The specific structure of the vascular closure device 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since the vascular closure system proposed in this invention includes all the solutions of all the above embodiments of the vascular closure device 100, it has at least the same technical effects as the above vascular closure device 100, which will not be described in detail here.
[0089] Reference Figures 10 to 17 In some embodiments of the present invention, the vascular closure system further includes a sheath 200, which includes a front seat 210 and a guide tube 220 connected to the front seat 210. The front seat 210 has an inlet communicating with the guide tube 220. The inlet is used for insertion of the delivery tube 10 of the vascular closure device 100 and for engaging with a snap 3121 on the handle housing 31 of the vascular closure device 100. In this embodiment, a hemostatic valve for hemostasis may be provided in the inlet of the front seat 210.
[0090] The procedure can be performed as follows:
[0091] Step 1: Insert the sheath 200 into the blood vessel, leaving the sheath 200's anterior seat 210 outside the body;
[0092] Step two, mainly refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 Operate the vascular closure device 100, insert the cap 11 on the distal end of the delivery tube 10 of the vascular closure device 100 into the front seat 210, so that the cap 11 is stuck at the entrance and does not enter the guide tube 220, and the delivery tube 10 enters the guide tube 220.
[0093] Step 3, mainly refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 Move the entire vascular closure device 100 forward so that the buckle 3121 on the sliding part 312 of the handle housing 31 is locked in place with the slot 210a of the front seat 210. At this time, the anchoring piece 21 is exposed from the delivery tube 10, and the delivery tube 10 is exposed at the distal end of the sheath 200. The anchoring piece 21 is fully exposed from the sheath 200.
[0094] Step four, mainly refer to Figure 14 and Figure 15 Fix the position of the slider 312, retract the main body of the handle housing 31, and the other end of the slider 312 is locked in the snap-fit groove in the housing 311. At this time, the anchoring piece 21 is tightly attached to the distal end of the sheath tube 200.
[0095] Step 5, mainly refer to Figure 16 and Figure 17 The entire vascular closure device 100 and sheath 200 are retracted, and the suture 33 is stretched. At this time, the advance tube 12 is exposed and can be manually pushed to move the locking buckle 23 forward, so that the locking buckle 23 locks the sponge 22 and the anchoring plate 21. It should be noted that the locking buckle 23 and the sponge 22 are outside the blood vessel, and the anchoring plate 21 is inside the blood vessel.
