TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to medical equipment technical field especially relates to a ring shape hemostatic clamp that can carry radioactive particle. BACKGROUND
[0002] Radioactive particle interventional therapy is a treatment method for destroying tumors by implanting radioactive sources in the tumor. However, it is difficult to completely remove tumor cells during the operation, which easily leads to the recurrence and metastasis of malignant tumors, affecting the prognosis. In order to solve this problem, radioactive particle implantation has become an effective treatment option, which has a wide range of indications, continuously releases low-dose gamma rays, has a short irradiation distance, reduces damage to normal tissues, and has little impact on medical staff and the environment.
[0003] Esophageal cancer is one of the common malignant tumors in clinical practice. Surgical resection is the most important means of radical treatment for esophageal cancer. However, postoperative complications such as pulmonary infection, anastomotic fistula, and atelectasis easily occur, which seriously affect the prognosis of patients and reduce the quality of life of patients. Anastomotic fistula is the most serious complication after esophageal cancer surgery, with an incidence of 5% to 40% and a mortality rate of 11% to 35.7%.
[0004] With the development of endoscopic minimally invasive technology, endoscopic anastomotic clips (OTSC) have good closure effect on postoperative hemostasis, fistula, and perforation. After the release of the clip, it is left in the body, and after the wound tissue is repaired, the tissue in the closed part is necrotic and falls off due to the clamping force, and the clip is discharged out of the body with the falling tissue. A number of clinical studies have shown that for postoperative wounds with a length of 1 to 3 cm, OTSC can achieve the closure of full-thickness defects in a relatively short time through a relatively simple operation process, with a closure success rate of 100% and a lower incidence of complications. However, the existing anastomotic clips only have a closure effect and cannot further perform close-range irradiation therapy on tumors.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a ring-shaped hemostatic clamp that can carry radioactive particles. By combining radioactive particles with the hemostatic clamp, the anastomotic fistula can be quickly closed with high stability, and the close-range treatment of tumor cells can also be achieved to solve the above problems.

[0029] In the description of the utility model, unless another definite provision and limitation, the term " is connected " " is connected " " is fixed " should be broad sense understanding, for example, can be fixed connection, also can be detachable connection, or is integrated;Can be mechanical connection, also can be electrical connection;Can be directly connected, also can be indirectly connected through intermediate medium, can be the intercommunication of two elements or the interaction of two elements.For the ordinary skilled person in the art, the specific meaning of the above-mentioned terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0030] As shown in Figure 1 The utility model provides a ring shape hemostat of carrying radioactive particle, is made of titanium nickel shape memory alloy material, including outer arc section 1, inner arc section 2, round angle 3, internal tooth 4, deposit groove 5 and radioactive particle 6, outer arc section 1 and inner arc section 2 staggered arrangement, outer arc section 1 and inner arc section 2 are connected through round angle 3, and the whole connection structure is central symmetry, and each inner arc section 2 middle part is provided with internal tooth 4, and the free end of internal tooth 4 all points to the center of ring shape hemostat, is set with deposit groove 5 on outer arc section 1, inner arc section 2, round angle 3 and internal tooth 4, and radioactive particle 6 is clamped in deposit groove 5, and ring shape hemostat utilizes its unique structure design, realizes the accurate closure of focus tissue and radiotherapy.
[0031] Specifically, ring shape hemostat adopts titanium nickel shape memory alloy material, and the material can restore to preset shape under specific temperature, utilizes its shape memory characteristic and superelasticity, ensures that ring shape hemostat can automatically clamp tissue after releasing, reaches the purpose of closing wound, and simultaneously, the radioactive particle 6 carried by ring shape hemostat carries out radiotherapy to tumor cell at close range and continuously.
[0032] The shape of the placement groove 5 is designed in various ways, which can be a rectangular groove, a cylindrical groove or a trapezoidal groove, to accommodate particles of different shapes and ensure their stable placement. In addition, the number and position of radioactive particles 6 can also be flexibly adjusted according to the patient's condition and treatment situation. The depth of the placement groove 5 is less than the thickness of each component of the annular hemostat, further ensuring the fixation of the particles during the operation. The placement groove 5 can also be designed as a through communication groove, which is particularly suitable for the treatment of large area tumors, providing a wider radiation coverage area and improving the efficiency of particle replacement.
[0033] By precisely controlling the size and shape of the placement groove 5, precise control of the radiation dose and distribution is achieved, protecting the surrounding healthy tissues while maximizing the killing effect on tumor cells. The flexibility of this design provides doctors with the option of personalized treatment plans, improving treatment effectiveness and patient recovery speed.
[0034] The radioactive particles 6 are externally sleeved with a particle sleeve made of biodegradable materials such as poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), polycaprolactone (PCL), and controlled rapid degradation of magnesium and magnesium alloys, which can be safely degraded in the body within a short period of time (1 week to 1 month). In addition, the particle sleeve also integrates radioactive sensitizing materials such as gadolinium (Gd)-based nanomaterials, which can increase the sensitivity of tumor cells to radiation, allowing effective treatment at lower doses of radiation. In addition to gadolinium, other radiosensitizing materials include gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), ferrocene derivatives, copper nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, bismuth oxide nanoparticles, etc. These sensitizing materials can enhance the effectiveness of radiotherapy through various mechanisms, such as increasing oxidative stress in tumor cells, interfering with DNA damage repair processes, changing cell cycle distribution, or enhancing X-ray physical interactions through their high atomic number. Through this design, the radioactive particles 6 can stably exert radiation pressure on the tumor tissue during treatment, while the biodegradable particle sleeve and sensitizing materials ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment. After the radioactive particles 6 complete their treatment task, these materials can be safely degraded in the body, reducing the long-term impact on the patient's health.
[0035] Further, the number of outer arc segments 1 is 3-8, which can be adjusted according to the operation requirements. Multiple outer arc segments 1 form a discontinuous circle or polygon to adapt to different surgical scenarios and tissue characteristics.
[0036] Preferably, the design of the inner teeth 4 is a key factor in improving the fixation effect of the annular hemostat. The inner teeth 4 can be designed as rectangular teeth or trapezoidal teeth with different thicknesses, with the fixed end being thicker and the free end being thinner. This design allows the inner teeth 4 to better adapt to and grasp the tissue, providing stable clamping force.
[0037] To further enhance the fixation effect of the ring-shaped hemostatic clip, the inner teeth 4 are particularly designed with an outward protruding tine 41 on both sides. This tine 41 design allows it to slightly penetrate into the tissue, providing additional grip and stability without causing excessive damage. This design is particularly suitable for surgical situations that require precise fixation and maintenance of position, such as tissue closure after tumor resection. In addition, the presence of the tine 41 not only improves the fixation ability of the ring-shaped hemostatic clip, but also helps to reduce tissue sliding during surgery, ensuring that the therapeutic effect of the radioactive particles 6 can accurately act on the target area.
[0038] Further, the outer turning of the inner teeth 4 from the center of symmetry of the ring-shaped hemostatic clip allows it to deform into a cylindrical structure, which enhances its adaptability and ease of operation in surgery.
[0039] To facilitate the assembly of the ring-shaped hemostatic clip into the release device, when the ring-shaped hemostatic clip is in a cylindrical structure, its outer diameter is designed to be greater than or equal to the diameter of the outer arc segment 1 in the natural state. Such design ensures the stability of the ring-shaped hemostatic clip during assembly, avoiding assembly difficulties or equipment damage due to size mismatch. In addition, this design also allows the ring-shaped hemostatic clip to maintain a proper gap within the release device, facilitating the precise positioning and release of the operator during surgery.
[0040] In actual surgery, the cylindrical structure design of the ring-shaped hemostatic clip provides significant advantages, including improved surgical flexibility, reduced damage to surrounding tissues, and simplified operation process, thereby improving surgical efficiency. In addition, this structure allows customization of the outer diameter and inner teeth 4 shape according to specific surgical needs to ensure optimal adaptability and operability while minimizing tissue damage.
