Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] To address the poor applicability of existing left atrial appendage occluders, this invention provides a left atrial appendage occluder and a left atrial appendage occlusion system. The left atrial appendage occlusion system described below includes the left atrial appendage occluder described below.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the left atrial appendage occlusion device includes a fixed plate 10, an occlusion plate 20, and a universal joint assembly. The universal joint assembly is connected to both the fixed plate 10 and the occlusion plate 20, allowing the occlusion plate 20 to rotate universally relative to the fixed plate 10. The universal joint assembly includes a limiting member 30 and a universal joint component 40. The limiting member 30 has a receiving cavity 31, and the first end of the universal joint component 40 has a universal structure 41, which is movably disposed within the receiving cavity 31 and forms a limiting stop with the limiting member 30. The limiting member 30 includes multiple connecting segments 33, which are welded end to end to form the receiving cavity 31. A matching snap-fit ​​structure is provided at the connecting end faces of adjacent connecting segments 33.

[0030] The left atrial appendage occluder comprises a fixing disc 10, an occlusion disc 20 and a universal joint assembly. The universal joint assembly is connected with the fixing disc 10 and the occlusion disc 20 respectively to enable the occlusion disc 20 to rotate universally relative to the fixing disc 10. The universal joint assembly comprises a limiting piece 30 and a universal joint member 40. The limiting piece 30 has a receiving cavity 31. The first end of the universal joint member 40 has a universal structure 41 which is movably arranged in the receiving cavity 31 and forms a limiting stop with the limiting piece 30. The limiting piece 30 comprises a plurality of connecting segments 33 which are sequentially welded to form the receiving cavity 31. The connecting end faces of the adjacent two connecting segments 33 are provided with matched clamping structures. Thus, the fixing disc 10 and the occlusion disc 20 are assembled by the universal joint assembly to form an integral occlusion structure which cannot be disassembled. Before assembly, the fixing disc 10 and the occlusion disc 20 of appropriate specifications can be selected according to the actual clinical needs. Further, the occlusion disc 20 rotates universally relative to the fixing disc 10 through the universal connection of the universal structure 41 and the limiting piece 30. Thus, the direction and angle are adjusted according to the actual clinical needs, so that the left atrial appendage occluder can be fully adapted to the patient, greatly improving the applicability of the left atrial appendage occluder. In addition, the clamping structure is arranged at the welding position of the limiting piece 30, so that the limiting piece 30 can be combined without using tooling, reducing the production cost. When welding, the phenomenon of extrusion or displacement caused by thermal expansion and cold contraction can be avoided due to the matching relationship, improving the service life of the limiting piece 30.

[0031] As shown in Figure 2 , the clamping structure comprises a protruding rib 34 and a groove 35. One of the protruding rib 34 and the groove 35 is arranged at the connecting end face of one of the adjacent two connecting segments 33, and the other of the protruding rib 34 and the groove 35 is arranged at the corresponding connecting end face of the other connecting segment 33. Specifically, in this embodiment, the limiting piece 30 is a cylindrical structure, and the middle part is the receiving cavity 31. The limiting piece 30 comprises two arc-shaped connecting segments 33. One connecting segment 33 has a protruding rib 34 and a groove 35 at both ends, and the other connecting segment 33 has a groove 35 and a protruding rib 34 at both ends, so that the two connecting segments 33 are matched in concave-convex manner, and then welded at the matching position of the connecting end face, as shown in Figure 3 , the dots in Figure 3 are welding points. Further, the number of the protruding rib 34 and the groove 35 at the connecting end face can be one or more, which can be selected according to actual needs.

[0032] In this embodiment, the size of the receiving cavity 31 is slightly larger than the universal structure 41, so that the universal structure 41 can be adjusted in rotation in the receiving cavity 31, and after the universal structure 41 is adjusted to the appropriate direction angle, it plays a limiting stop role for the universal structure, preventing the universal structure 41 from shaking greatly, and ensuring the accuracy and stability of the adjustment.

[0033] As shown in Figure 4 The end of the limiting member 30 close to the universal joint member 40 is provided with a radial inwardly extending stopper periphery 32, which limits the stopper universal structure in the axial direction of the limiting member 30. The middle part of the stopper periphery 32 is formed with a through hole for avoiding at least part of the universal joint member 40. In the embodiment, the end of the limiting member 30 away from the universal joint member 40 is used to connect and fix with the fixed disc 10. The stopper periphery 32 can be understood as being formed by opening a middle through hole at the end of the closed cylindrical limiting member 30 close to the universal joint member 40. The stopper periphery 32 can be a split structure, that is, the stopper periphery 32 is welded and fixed with the end of the limiting member 30 close to the universal joint member 40, or the stopper periphery 32 is an integral structure with the limiting member 30, and the stopper periphery 32 is formed by extending radially inwardly from the end of the limiting member 30 close to the universal joint member 40.

[0034] It can be understood that in the embodiment, when the plurality of connecting segments 33 are sequentially welded to enclose the universal structure 41 in the accommodating cavity 31, the universal structure 41 is limited and stopped by the stopper periphery 32 of the limiting member 30 and cannot be disassembled, that is, the blocking disc 20 and the fixed disc 10 are not disassembled after assembly to form an integral blocking structure, thereby ensuring the connection firmness of the entire left atrial appendage blocking device.

[0035] In the embodiment, the universal structure 41 is a ball head structure, and the diameter of the through hole is smaller than the diameter of the ball head structure. In this way, the ball head structure cannot pass through the through hole, preventing the limiting member 30 from being separated from the universal joint member 40 after assembly.

[0036] In the embodiment, the fixed disc 10 is provided with a barb, and the fixed disc 10 is fixed by connecting with the pectinate muscle through the barb.

[0037] In an alternative embodiment, the limiting member 30 and the fixed disc 10 are an integral structure. Through the above arrangement, the connection firmness between the fixed disc 10 and the limiting member 30 can be ensured, and the service life of the left atrial appendage blocking device is improved.

[0038] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 The second end of the universal joint member 40 has a connecting portion 43, which is a cylindrical structure, and the end of the blocking disc 20 close to the fixed disc 10 extends into the connecting portion 43 and is welded with the connecting portion 43. Specifically, the end of the connecting portion 43 away from the fixed disc 10 is an opening, and the end of the blocking disc 20 close to the fixed disc 10 has a steel sleeve 21, which extends into the connecting portion 43 and is connected and fixed with the cylindrical wall of the connecting portion 43. In the embodiment, the steel sleeve 21 can be connected and fixed with the connecting portion 43 by welding, bonding or interference fit press connection and the like.

[0039] Further, the length of the connecting portion 43 in the embodiment is adapted to the length of the steel sleeve 21, so as to cooperate with the size of the steel sleeve 21 to form an optimal welding point, avoiding that the bottom of the connecting portion 43 is out of the steel sleeve 21 to form a virtual welding, causing the sealing disc 20 to fall off.

[0040] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the universal joint member 40 further comprises an intermediate transition portion 42 connected with the universal structure 41 in sequence, and the cross-sectional area of the intermediate transition portion 42 is smaller than that of the universal structure. That is, the universal structure 41, the intermediate transition portion 42 and the connecting portion 43 are connected in sequence. By providing the intermediate transition portion 42, universal adjustment between the limiting piece 30 and the universal structure 41, that is, between the fixing disc 10 and the sealing disc 20, can be achieved, so that the direction angle between the fixing disc 10 and the sealing disc 20 can be adaptively adjusted according to the different shapes of the left atrial appendage.

[0041] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 , the intermediate transition portion 42 is a waist-shaped structure with a diameter gradually decreasing from both ends to the middle. The inner edge of the stopper periphery 32 is adapted to the shape of the intermediate transition portion 42. Specifically, both ends of the intermediate transition portion 42 are inwardly tapered in diameter by a ball head structure and the connecting portion 43, respectively. The stopper periphery 32 corresponds to the part of the intermediate transition portion 42 with the smallest middle diameter, and the peripheral side surface of this part is an arc surface connected with the ball head structure in sequence. Correspondingly, the cross section of the inner edge of the stopper periphery 32 is also a smooth arc. Since the stopper periphery 32 and the waist-shaped structure of the intermediate transition portion 42 have a corresponding motion relationship, the above arrangement is beneficial to better fit the stopper periphery 32 to the waist-shaped structure of the intermediate transition portion 42 during universal rotation, thereby maximizing the rotation adjustment angle and improving the adjustment flexibility.

[0042] Further, the part of the intermediate transition portion 42 inwardly tapered from one end of the connecting portion 43 is a trapezoidal structure, thereby increasing the overall thickness of the waist-shaped structure, enhancing the tensile strength of the universal joint member 40 and improving the service life.

[0043] In the embodiment, the minimum diameter of the cross section of the intermediate transition portion 42 is smaller than the hole diameter of the through hole. Through the above arrangement, the intermediate transition portion 42 has a certain space for movement at the through hole, so as to rotate with the universal structure 41 and realize universal adjustment.

[0044] In the embodiment, the universal joint member 40 is of an integral structure. Through the above arrangement, the connection firmness between the components of the universal joint member 40 can be ensured, and the service life is improved.

[0045] Of course, the universal joint member 40 can also not be a one-piece structure, specifically, the universal structure 41 and the intermediate transition portion 42 can be a one-piece structure, when assembled, the connecting segment 33 of the limiting piece 30 is welded first, then the universal structure 41 and the intermediate transition portion 42 are inserted into the accommodating cavity 31 of the limiting piece 30 from the end away from the blocking disc 20, wherein the intermediate transition portion 42 is inserted out of the through hole, and the universal structure 41 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 31, then the intermediate transition portion 42 is connected and fixed with the connecting portion 43 by welding or the like, and the universal structure 41 is limited and stopped by the stopping peripheral edge 32, so that the limiting piece 30 and the universal joint member 40 cannot be disassembled after assembly.

[0046] As shown in Figure 1 The blocking disc 20 is provided with a connecting piece 50 away from the fixed disc 10, and the connecting piece 50 has a threaded segment for threaded connection with a delivery device of the left atrial appendage occlusion system.

[0047] In the embodiment, the cross section of the blocking disc 20 is a trapezoidal structure, and the diameter of the blocking disc 20 gradually decreases along the direction close to the fixed disc 10. Further, the fixed disc 10 and / or the blocking disc 20 is provided with at least one layer of flow resistance film 60. Specifically, the fixed disc 10 in the embodiment is provided with one layer of flow resistance film 60, and the blocking disc 20 is provided with two layers of flow resistance film 60, so that the blocking disc 20 can form stable fixation by its own radial support force at the left atrial appendage opening and form double-layer flow resistance protection. By arranging the flow resistance film 60, the outer disc of the blocking disc 20 and the left atrial appendage opening are flat and left heart conforming, and will not protrude at the left atrial appendage opening, reducing the risk of residual leakage, greatly improving the occlusion effect, and will not cause any impact on the left superior pulmonary vein and the mitral valve.

[0048] Specifically, in actual use, the blocking disc 20 is pulled by the fixed fixed disc 10 after being fixed, so that the blocking disc 20 conforms to the left atrial appendage, the diameter of the blocking disc 20 gradually decreases along the left atrial appendage, and the blocking disc 20 forms a bottle plug structure, the smaller diameter end of the bottle plug is close to the bottom of the left atrial appendage, and the larger diameter end is attached to the opening of the left atrial appendage.

[0049] Further, during the operation, with the development of one-stop ablation and occlusion, there will be edema at the left atrial appendage opening after ablation, and new residual leakage and residual cavity will be formed after the left atrial appendage occluder is implanted and the left atrial appendage opening is de-swollen. Since the left atrial appendage occluder with a trapezoidal angle design has a elastic mesh tube, it can conform to the left atrial appendage opening after de-swelling and will not form new residual cavity and residual leakage.

[0050] The utility model also provides a left atrial appendage occlusion system which comprises the left atrial appendage occluder and a delivery device for delivering the left atrial appendage occluder, and the left atrial appendage occluder is detachably connected with the delivery device.

[0051] In the embodiment, the delivery device comprises a delivery steel cable and a delivery sheath. The delivery steel cable is screwed with the connecting piece 50 of the left atrial appendage occluder. The left atrial appendage occluder is accommodated in the delivery sheath.

[0052] Specifically, the fixed disc 10 and the occlusion disc 20 have elasticity and can be retracted in the delivery sheath. After selecting the appropriate occlusion disc 20 and fixed disc 10 and connecting, the delivery sheath is delivered to the vicinity of the designated position. By operating the delivery steel cable, the left atrial appendage occluder is pushed out of the delivery sheath. The fixed disc 10 is first stretched out of the delivery sheath. The fixed disc 10 is made of a memory metal such as nickel-titanium alloy and restores to the original shape after being stretched out of the delivery sheath. At this time, the delivery steel cable is moved so that the fixed disc 10 is connected to the pectinate muscle of the left atrial appendage through the barb. Then the delivery steel cable is continuously moved so that the occlusion disc 20 is pushed out of the delivery sheath and restores to the original state, and the release of the left atrial appendage occluder is completed.

[0053] From the above description, it can be seen that the above-mentioned embodiments of the utility model realize the following technical effects: the left atrial appendage occluder comprises a fixed disc 10, an occlusion disc 20 and a universal joint assembly. The universal joint assembly is connected with the fixed disc 10 and the occlusion disc 20 respectively to enable the occlusion disc 20 to rotate in all directions relative to the fixed disc 10. The universal joint assembly comprises a limiting piece 30 and a universal joint member 40. The limiting piece 30 has a containing cavity 31. The first end of the universal joint member 40 has a universal structure 41 which is movably arranged in the containing cavity 31 and forms a limiting stop with the limiting piece 30. The limiting piece 30 comprises a plurality of connecting segments 33 which are sequentially welded to form the containing cavity 31. The connecting end faces of the adjacent two connecting segments 33 are provided with matched clamping structures. In this way, the fixed disc 10 and the occlusion disc 20 are assembled by the universal joint assembly to form an integral occlusion structure which cannot be disassembled. Before assembly, the appropriate fixed disc 10 and occlusion disc 20 can be selected according to the actual clinical needs. Further, the occlusion disc 20 rotates in all directions relative to the fixed disc 10 through the universal connection of the universal structure 41 and the limiting piece 30. Thus, the direction and angle can be adjusted according to the actual clinical needs, so that the left atrial appendage occluder can be completely adapted to the patient, greatly improving the applicability of the left atrial appendage occluder. In addition, the clamping structure is arranged at the welding position of the limiting piece 30, so that the limiting piece 30 can be combined without using tooling, reducing the production cost. When welding, the phenomenon of extrusion or displacement caused by thermal expansion and cold contraction can be avoided due to the matching relationship, improving the service life of the limiting piece 30.
