Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an electrode lead, in particular to an implantable cardiac pacemaker electrode lead. Background Art

[0002] Cardiac pacemaker surgery, also known as cardiac pacemaker implantation, refers to a treatment method in which a cardiac pacemaker is implanted subcutaneously. The pacemaker generates pulsed current of a specific frequency, and through the electrode lead, it stimulates the heart to contract and drives the heart beat.

[0003] A cardiac pacemaker system is a complete cardiac pacing system, which includes a cardiac pacemaker, an electrode lead, and a programmer. The cardiac pacemaker completely or partially replaces the electrical excitation and conduction of the heart, mainly for severe bradyarrhythmia, etc., enabling patients to live a normal life. This technology belongs to minimally invasive surgery, with small trauma, little pain, and high safety, and the treatment effect is indeed reliable. Clinically, cardiac pacemakers are widely used in various arrhythmias, atrioventricular block, sick sinus syndrome, etc., and can effectively reduce arrhythmias.

[0004] In the prior art, connecting ring one is connected to the cathode through inner helix one, connecting ring two is connected to the anode through outer helix, and there is an insulating tube between the inner helix and the outer helix. There is no catheter separation layer in the middle of the catheter. The overall hardness of the electrode is relatively high, the toughness of the electrode is poor, and the comfort of the patient is poor. And there is only one insulating tube between the inner helix and the outer helix. When the insulating tube is damaged, the cathode and the anode form a short circuit, affecting the treatment and thus failing to achieve the expected purpose, and the safety performance is relatively low. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the above defects and provides an implantable cardiac pacemaker electrode lead.

[0006] To overcome the defects in the background art, the technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: this implantable cardiac pacemaker electrode lead includes a catheter, and a catheter separation layer is provided inside the catheter to divide the inside of the catheter into two chambers. One chamber is provided with helix one, and the other chamber is provided with helix two. An insulating tube one is provided outside helix one, and an insulating tube two is provided outside helix two. One end of helix one is welded to connecting ring one, and the other end is welded to the cathode. One end of helix two is welded to connecting ring two, and the other end is welded to the anode. A sealing ring one is provided at the welding position of one end of helix one and connecting ring one, barbs are provided at the welding position of the other end of helix one and the cathode, and a sealing ring two is provided at the welding position of one end of helix two and connecting ring two.

[0007] According to another embodiment of the utility model, it further includes that helix one and helix two are synchronously wound from guide wires, and the materials are not limited to platinum-iridium alloy and nickel-cobalt alloy.

[0008] According to another embodiment of the present utility model, it further includes that the material of the catheter is polyurethane.

[0009] According to another embodiment of the present utility model, it further includes that the materials of the anode and the cathode are platinum iridium alloy PtIr10.

[0010] According to another embodiment of the present utility model, it further includes that the materials of the first connecting ring and the second connecting ring are nickel cobalt alloy.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: For this implantable cardiac pacemaker electrode lead, the first connecting ring, the second connecting ring, the cathode and the anode remain unchanged, while the catheter structure and the spiral structure are changed. A catheter separation layer is added in the middle of the catheter, which can effectively separate the first helix and the second helix, improving the safety and stability performance. The inner helix no longer passes through the inside of the outer helix. The first helix and the second helix pass through the two side channels of the catheter respectively, and there are independent insulating tubes outside the first helix and the second helix, enhancing the safety performance. The overall hardness of this structure electrode is reduced, and the toughness of the electrode is improved. After being implanted into the body, the comfort of the patient is increased.

[0017] Such as Figure 1 、 2As shown in the figure, the figure includes a catheter 1. Inside the catheter 1, there is a catheter separation layer 2 that divides the interior of the catheter 1 into two chambers. In one chamber, there is a first helix 3, and in the other chamber, there is a second helix 4. Outside the first helix 3, there is an insulating tube 6, and outside the second helix 4, there is an insulating tube 7. One end of the first helix 3 is welded to a first connecting ring 8, and the other end is welded to a cathode 9. One end of the second helix 4 is welded to a second connecting ring 10, and the other end is welded to an anode 11.

At the welding point where one end of the second helix 4 is welded to the second connecting ring 10, there is a second sealing ring 14. For this kind of electrode lead wire, the first connecting ring and the second connecting ring are connected to a cardiac pacemaker; the anode and the cathode are in contact with the human body. The first connecting ring is connected to the cathode through the first helix, and the second connecting ring is connected to the anode through the second helix. There is a catheter separation layer in the middle of the catheter, and there are insulating tubes outside the first helix and the second helix respectively.

The inner channel of the first helix can be used to insert a guide wire during the operation to assist the operation. The channel at the connecting ring end is open, and the channel at the cathode end is closed. The inner helix no longer passes through the inside of the outer helix. The first helix and the second helix pass through the two side channels of the catheter respectively, and there are independent insulating tubes outside the first helix and the second helix, enhancing the safety performance. The overall hardness of this structure of the electrode is reduced, and the toughness of the electrode is improved. After being implanted into the body, the comfort of the patient is increased.

[0020] The material of the catheter 1 is polyurethane. The materials of the anode 11 and the cathode 9 are platinum-iridium alloy PtIr10.

[0021] The materials of the first connecting ring 8 and the second connecting ring 10 are nickel-cobalt alloy. The connecting ring side of the electrode lead wire is molded; the implanted end (cathode side) is injection molded, and the injection molding material is polyurethane.
