Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, and specifically relates to a pericardial suspension device for minimally invasive cardiac surgery. Background Technology
[0002] Minimally invasive cardiac surgery is a type of cardiac surgery performed through small incisions, enabling patients to recover quickly after surgery, reducing pain, and minimizing postoperative complications. The pericardium is a thin membrane surrounding the heart; during surgery, it needs to be temporarily removed or suspended to allow surgeons easier manipulation. Sutures are typically used to suspend the pericardium for better access to the heart and surrounding tissues.
[0003] For exposing the surgical site in heart surgery, the most common technique is pericardial suspension and traction. The method of pericardial suspension is also quite sophisticated, typically employing a combination of pericardial peritoneal suspension and traction, and intracardiac pericardial suspension and traction. Peripheral suspension and traction provides a shallower view of the entire heart during surgery, making the procedure relatively safe. During surgery, to avoid pericardial effusion, a drainage tube is often used. However, in practice, the drainage tube can easily interfere with the pericardial suspension line, affecting the surgical procedure. Furthermore, existing pericardial suspensions use individual traction lines, making the setup rather cumbersome.
[0004] Therefore, this application provides a pericardial suspension device for minimally invasive cardiac surgery, which facilitates the placement of pericardial traction lines and avoids interference between drainage tubes and traction lines. Utility Model Content

[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments of this application and the accompanying drawings.
[0039] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a minimally invasive cardiac surgery pericardial suspension device includes: a housing 1, the housing 1 being hollow inside with a clearance hole in the center; a top cover 2 on the upper part of the housing 1; several sets of retraction components 3 disposed between the housing 1 and the top cover 2; each set of retraction components 3 being fitted with a suspension rope 4; one end of the suspension rope 4 being fixedly connected to the retraction component 3, and the other end passing through the housing 1 and extending into the clearance hole, and being fixedly connected to a working head 5; several sets of locking components 6 are disposed on the housing 1, each locking component 6 corresponding to one of the retraction components 3;
[0040] The clearance hole is used to insert a drainage tube, the extension and retraction assembly 3 is used to adjust the extension length of the suspension rope 4, the working head 5 is used to cooperate with the pericardial tissue, and the locking assembly 6 is used to adjust the tightness of the extension and retraction assembly 3.
[0041] The extension and retraction component 3 allows doctors to adjust the extension length of the suspension rope 4 as needed, thereby precisely controlling the suspension height and position of the pericardium, ensuring a clear surgical field and operational precision. The locking component 6 further enhances operational stability, allowing doctors to adjust the tightness of the extension and retraction components according to the surgical progress and needs, ensuring the stability of the pericardial suspension. The clearance hole not only allows the suspension rope 4 to pass through but also allows for the insertion of drainage tubes, enabling the device to be used not only for pericardial suspension during surgery but also to assist in other surgical procedures, such as drainage of pericardial effusion. Furthermore, it prevents interference between the placement of the suspension rope 4 and the drainage tube, thus avoiding disruption to the surgical procedure.
[0042] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the retraction assembly 3 includes: a retraction knob 301, a rotating rod 302, and a winch 303;
[0043] The lower end of the rotating rod 302 is rotatably connected to the lower part of the inner cavity of the housing 1, and the upper end passes through the upper cover 2 and is fixedly connected to the retraction knob 301. A winch 303 is sleeved on the rotating rod 302, and the winch 303 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 302. One end of the suspension rope 4 is fixedly connected to the winch 303.
[0044] In one specific embodiment, the rotating rod 302 is rotatably connected between the housing 1 and the upper cover 2. The winch 303 is sleeved on the rotating rod 302 and is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 302 by a tap. The upper end of the rotating rod 302 is sleeved with a winding knob 301, and the winding knob 301 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 302 by a tap or bolt. The user can drive the winch 303 to rotate by rotating the winding knob 301. One end of the suspension rope 4 is fixedly connected to the winch 303. Therefore, the winding and unwinding of the suspension rope 4 can be controlled by rotating the winding knob 301.
[0045] In actual use of this device, the housing 1 is first fixed by an external fixing device, and then the extension length of the suspension rope 4 is adjusted to lift the pericardial tissue.
[0046] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the upper part of the winch 303 is provided with a limiting disk 304, and the outer circumference of the limiting disk 304 is provided with a plurality of limiting teeth, which are used to cooperate with the locking component 6.
[0047] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the locking assembly 6 includes: a locking knob 601, a limiting rod 602, and a return spring 604;
[0048] The circumferential sidewall of the housing 1 is provided with mounting holes for installing the locking assembly 6;
[0049] The limiting rod 602 is slidably disposed in the mounting hole. One end of the limiting rod 602 passes through the housing 1 and cooperates with the limiting plate 304. The outer end of the mounting hole is threaded with a locking knob 601. A return spring 604 is provided between the locking knob 601 and the limiting rod 602.
[0050] In one specific embodiment, the locking assembly 6 has the specific structure described above. By rotating the locking knob 601, the compression degree of the return spring 604 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the pressure of the limiting rod 602 on the limiting disc 304, thereby limiting the extension distance of the suspension rope 4.
[0051] In practical use, after the housing 1 is fixed in the preset position, the doctor first rotates the locking knob 601 outward to relax the return spring 604. At this time, the doctor can directly pull the working head 5, which will drive the suspension rope 4 to extend. The winch 303 can rotate easily, making it convenient for the doctor to fix the working head 5 to the pericardial tissue. After fixing, the doctor can rotate the release knob 301 to rotate the winch 303 to retrieve the suspension rope 4. When it is necessary to fix the winch 303, the locking knob 601 is rotated inward to make the limiting rod 602 abut against the limiting plate 304, restricting the rotation of the winch 303, thereby completing the suspension of the pericardial tissue.
[0052] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the limiting rod 602 has a flange at one end located in the inner cavity of the mounting hole, and the flange is used to prevent the limiting rod 602 from falling out of the mounting hole.
[0053] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the end of the limiting rod 602 that mates with the limiting disc 304 is provided with a transition surface 603, which mates with the limiting teeth. By adjusting the tightness of the locking knob 601, the doctor can adjust the feel of turning the release knob 301, further improving the accuracy of releasing and retracting the suspension rope 4. When the return spring 604 is not compressed to its limit, the greater the compression of the return spring 604, the more difficult it is to release and retract the suspension rope 4.
[0054] In one specific embodiment, the working head 5 is a puncture needle or a clamp. The working head 5 can be a puncture needle for puncturing and suspending pericardial tissue, or it can be a clamp for holding and suspending pericardial tissue.
[0055] like Figure 5 As shown, the gripper includes: a fixing block 501, a fixing chuck 502, and a rotating chuck 503;
[0056] The fixing block 501 is fixedly connected to the suspension rope 4, one end of the fixing clamp 502 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 501, and the middle part of the rotating clamp 503 is rotatably connected to the fixing block 501 and cooperates with the fixing clamp 502.
[0057] A spring is provided between the rotating chuck 503 and the fixed block 501 at one end, and the fixed block 501, so that the other end of the rotating chuck 503 abuts against the fixed chuck 502; a serrated surface 504 is provided on the adjacent side wall of the fixed chuck 502 and the rotating chuck 503. The serrated surface 504 can improve the clamping force of the gripper and prevent pericardial tissue from falling off. Preferably, the two serrated surfaces 504 mesh with each other.
[0058] like Figure 6 As shown, a threaded sleeve 7 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the housing 1. A through hole is provided in the middle of the threaded sleeve 7, which is adapted to the clearance hole. A fixing nut 8 is threadedly connected to the external surface of the threaded sleeve 7. In one specific embodiment, as... Figure 7 As shown, a fitting hole is made in the patient's chest wall using a puncture needle 9. The threaded sleeve 7 is inserted into the fitting hole from the outside and locked in the inside by a fixing nut 8 to complete the fixation of the suspension device. The suspension rope 4 and the working head 5 extend into the clearance hole to fit with the pericardial tissue to complete the suspension. The drainage tube can also be extended into the clearance hole for easy placement.
[0059] In another embodiment, the suspension device can also be fixed above the thoracic opening with the help of external fixation components to suspend the pericardial tissue.
[0060] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of the present utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
