Description

抗反流心脏瓣膜支架 技术领域
本发明涉及医疗器械技术领域,具体涉及一种抗反流心脏瓣膜支架。
背景技术
由于经导管进行手术的方式具有创伤小、恢复快等诸多优点,因此越来越多的手术都开始采用经导管进行手术。主动脉瓣置换术也由早期的外科开刀方式改变为经导管进行主动脉瓣的置换。为此,需要提供一种可以适用于经导管进行主动脉瓣置换、便于固定,且固定牢靠的心脏瓣膜支架。
授权公告号为CN102413793B且标题为“用于瓣膜假体在病人心脏中的植入部位的定位和锚定的支架”的中国发明专利披露了一种可扩张支架,其包括多个定位弧和多个保持弧,所述定位弧构成位于原生心瓣膜上的多个囊袋内且位于多个原有心瓣膜小叶的第一侧上,所述多个保持弧被构造为位于与第一侧相对的所述多个原生心瓣膜小叶的第二侧上。所述保持弧被多个弯曲边缘划分成多个臂段,所述臂段互联形成保持弧臂,其在支架未扩展状态时成直线。所述保持弧的各臂具有与被附着于支架的瓣膜假体的小叶匹配的形状。但在该现有技术披露的心脏瓣膜支架中,将原生瓣叶直接夹在定位件与紧固弧之间,存在原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶侵扰人工心脏瓣膜瓣叶的风险。
此外,主动脉瓣的置换通常要借助抗反流心脏支架和输送器来完成,其中需要解决的技术难题之一如何固定原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶。现有技术中通过将原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶夹合在抗反流心脏支架的定位件和紧固件之间,这要求定位件在抗反流心脏支架处于扩展状态时,具有合适的张开角度。但因为定位件通常是一根弯曲的杆,两端分别与抗反流心脏支架的连接块固定连接,膨胀之后大部分处于悬空状态,使得定位件沿径向的扩展角度难以控制。
另外,心脏瓣膜支架是实现心脏瓣膜置换手术的关键器械之一,而心脏瓣膜支架通常由医用不锈钢材料制成,现有技术中的心脏瓣膜支架远端的连接结构密度偏高,增加了心脏瓣膜支架的重量,这一方面使得心脏瓣膜支架更难以操控,另一方面也增加了材料成本。
为此,本领域持续需要开发定位精准、易于操控、轻量化的抗反流心脏瓣膜支架。

在本发明的描述中,需要说明的是,除非另有明确的规定和限定,术语“安装”、“相连”、“连接”应做广义理解,例如,可以是相连,也可以是可拆卸连接,或一体地连接;可以是机械连接,也可以是电连接;可以是直接相连,也可以通过中间媒介间接相连,可以是两个元件内部的连通。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言,可以通过具体情况理解上述术语在本发明中的具体含义。

实施例1
本实施例提供一种心脏瓣膜支架,下面将参考图1-7详细描述本实施例的心脏瓣膜支架。
首先参考图1-3,其中图1显示根据实施例1的心脏瓣膜支架1处于伸展状态时的立体图,图2显示根据本实施例的心脏瓣膜支架1另一角度的立体图,且图3显示根据本实施例的心脏瓣膜支架1的展开图。如图1-3所示,本实施例所述的心脏瓣膜支架1可包括在该心脏瓣膜支架处于伸展状态时靠近心尖的心脏瓣膜支架远端以及在该心脏瓣膜支架处于伸展状态时远离心尖的心脏瓣膜支架近端。心脏瓣膜支架近端可包括连接件14以及设置在相邻连接件之间的支撑件11、定位件12和紧固件13。支撑件11和定位件12可用于固定原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶,同时紧固件13可用于固定人工心脏瓣膜瓣叶。
在本实施例中,支撑件11可包括第一支撑臂111、第二支撑臂112以及连接所述第一支撑臂111和第二支撑臂112的支撑件远端113。第一支撑臂111固定连接至第一连接件,第二支撑臂112固定连接至第二连接件,第一连接件与所述第二连接件相邻。类似地,定位件12可包括第一定位臂121、第二定位臂122以及连接所述第一定位臂和所述第二定位臂的定位件远端123。第一定位臂121固定连接至第一连接件,且第二定位臂122固定连接至第二连接件,所述第一连接件与所述第二连接件相邻。此外,紧固件13包括第一紧固弧131、第二紧固弧132以及连接所述第一紧固弧和所述第二紧固弧的紧固件远端133。所述第一紧固弧固定连接至第一连接件,所述第二紧固弧固定连接至第二连接件,所述第一连接件与所述第二连接件相邻。
在本实施例中,定位件12比所述支撑件11更靠近心脏瓣膜支架远端,紧固件13比定位件12更靠近所述心脏瓣膜支架远端。所述支撑件远端113和所述定位件远端123为朝向所述心脏瓣膜支架远端凸起的杆。所述支撑件11设置在原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶的一侧,且所述定位件12设置在原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶的另一侧。
与传统的心脏瓣膜支架相比,本文所述的心脏瓣膜支架还包括支撑件11,从而可将原生瓣叶夹在支撑件11与定位件12之间,支撑件11阻止了原生瓣叶侵扰人工瓣叶,而且由于原生瓣叶是由支撑件与定位件进行夹持,夹持相对更加牢靠,同时支撑件也利于该心脏瓣膜支架能够更加顺利的自膨,增加了自膨时的径向力。
在一种具体实施方式中,参考图3,当所述心脏瓣膜支架处于压缩状态时,所述第一支撑臂和所述第二支撑臂为线性的。当所述心脏瓣膜支架处于压缩状态时,所述第一定位臂和所述第二定位臂为线性的。将第一定位臂和第二定位臂设计成线性的是为了便于压缩,在进行充分压缩时,其占用的空间最小,即相邻第一支撑臂和第二支撑臂在压缩时会充分靠拢。而且线性的结构可以保证两者在压缩时不会干涉,因此,第一定位臂和第二定 位臂为线性的目的也是为了在压缩时会充分靠拢而不会干涉。另外,本支架采用一根钢管进行切割而成的,线性的设计也利于加工,减短了加工路径,降低了加工成本。
在一种具体实施方式中,所述定位件远端为抛物线结构,减小了定位件与窦底的接触应力,防止瓣环破裂。
在一种具体实施方式中,紧固件13的宽度比支撑件11和定位件12的宽度更宽,以提供强有力的支撑。
在一种具体实施方式中,当所述心脏瓣膜支架处于伸展状态时,所述支撑件具有第一张开角度,所述定位件具有第二张开角度,所述第二张开角度为4°-14°,且所述第一张开角度小于所述第二张开角度。定位件12与紧固件13产生一定的张角,便于定位件12捕捉瓣叶,减少手术难度。定位件12可用于防止瓣膜心室方向移位、促使人工瓣叶的远心端与原生瓣叶对齐,使其最大程度的还原原生瓣膜的功能,而同时保持人工瓣膜能够位于原有原生瓣膜的位置,因此人工瓣膜就很好的替代了原生瓣膜,降低了对血流的影响,减少血栓的发生,而第二张开角度为4°-14°的设置能够使得定位件12与紧固件13能夹紧原生瓣膜,防止原生瓣膜自由运动,同时原生瓣叶与支架紧密贴合,减少了瓣周漏。
在一种具体实施方式中,所述定位件远端最靠近所述心脏瓣膜支架远端之处与所述心脏瓣膜支架远端最远处(即下文描述的卡位端16)的垂直距离为4mm-8mm,优选地为6mm。
在一种具体实施方式中,卡位端的远端的相对于卡位端的近端外扩,并且卡位端的远端相对于卡位端的近端外扩的角度为6°-14°。需要产生外扩的原因是防止轻量化心脏瓣膜支架往主动脉方向位移,起到锚定作用。同时,而不能产生过大的角度原因是防止触碰希氏束,从而影响心脏的正常跳动,危及生命。
在一种具体实施方式中,参考图4和图5,心脏瓣膜支架远端还包括卡位端16和加强网15,在卡位端和16和加强网15之间存在镂空结构17。在本实施例中,卡位端16的菱形方格数量为18个,有效的增加该心脏瓣膜支架的可压缩性,而且构成菱形方格的杆宽是渐变的(中间细两头宽),以优化支架抗疲劳性能。此外,因为本文所述的心脏瓣膜支架只包括18个菱形方格,本心脏瓣膜支架相邻紧固弧之间只需一个加强网15来连接卡位端即可,可以形成大量镂空部位,有效的降低了该心脏瓣膜支架的重量,而且便于压缩,而且构成菱形方格的杆宽是渐变的(中间细两头宽),以优化支架抗疲劳性能。此外,加强网15的存在既可以增加支架的中部结构强度,也可以隔离自体瓣叶,以防侵犯到人工瓣叶。
接下来,将参考图4和图5,更加详细地描述卡位端16和加强网15的更多技术特征。
在一种具体实施方式中,首先参考图5,轻量化心脏瓣膜支架远端可包括卡位端16,该卡位端包括相互连接的若干卡位端结构单元161,构成所述卡位端结构单元161的杆162 的宽度中央小两头大。在图5所示的实施方式中,所述卡位端结构单元161的杆162可为对称的,其中间的宽度最小,然后朝着两头的方向平滑地变大,没有台阶性的突变。因此杆162的边缘是光滑的。
在一种具体实施方式中,卡位端结构单元161为菱形方格,卡位端16可包括设置成一层且相互连接的18个卡位端结构单元161。相邻卡位端结构单元161可通过公用一个顶点的方式相互连接。相邻卡位端结构单元161连接区域分别沿着所述轻量化心脏瓣膜支架的周向和纵向延伸预定长度,沿着所述轻量化心脏瓣膜支架的周向方向,所述相邻卡位端结构单元连接区域包括朝向其凹陷的弯曲结构163。因为杆162的两头的宽度最宽,在杆162在靠近卡位端结构单元161连接区的位置最宽且变形也就最困难,所以在压缩与膨胀的过程中会产生较大的应力,容易造成杆162在靠近卡位端结构单元161连接区的位置发生断裂。通过增加弯曲结构163,减小了杆62在靠近卡位端结构单元161连接区的位置的弯曲应力,可以该支架的卡位端的压缩和自膨胀过程,防止杆162发生断裂。
在另一种实施方式中,参考图3和图4,所述卡位端16和所述紧固件13之间设置有加强网15,所述加强网15的远端固定至所述卡位端16,所述加强网15的近端固定连接至相邻紧固件13的不同紧固弧之间。在一种优选的实施方式中,所述加强网15包括若干相互连接的加强网结构单元151,所述加强网近端一侧的加强网结构单元151固定连接至第一紧固件的第二紧固弧,且所述加强网近端的另一侧的加强网结构单元固定连接至第二紧固件的第一紧固弧。换句话说,加强网的近端分别连接至不同紧固件的不同紧固弧,从而实现固定连接。在一种具体实施方式中,所述卡位端结构单元151为菱形结构,加强网远端的加强网结构单元与卡位端的一个卡位端结构单元公用一个顶点,加强网远端的加强网结构单元与紧固件的紧固弧共用一条或者两条边。在一种具体实施方式中,与构成卡位端结构单元161的杆类似,构成所述加强网结构单元151的杆152的宽度中央小两头大。
在一种优选的实施方式中,沿着从所述心脏瓣膜支架近端到所述心脏瓣膜支架远端的轴向方向,所述加强网15依次包括相互连接的三层,第一层包括一个加强网结构单元,第二层包括两个加强网结构单元,第三层包括一个加强网结构单元。第一层的加强网结构单元与其左边的紧固件的第二紧固弧共用一条边,且与其右边的紧固件的第一紧固弧共用一条边。第二层左侧的加强网结构单元与其左边的紧固件的第二紧固弧共用一条边,第二层右侧的加强网结构单元与与其右边的紧固件的第一紧固弧共用一条边。第三层的加强网结构单元与卡位端结构单元共用一个顶点。在该实施方式中,加强网第二层的加强网结构单元连接区域分别沿着所述轻量化心脏瓣膜支架的周向和纵向延伸预定长度,沿着所述轻量化心脏瓣膜支架的周向方向,所述加强网结构单元连接区域包括朝向其凹陷的弯曲结构153。加强网结构单元连接区域的弯曲结构153的作用与卡位端结构单元连接区域的弯曲 结构163的作用类似,可以该支架的卡位端的压缩和自膨胀过程,防止杆152发生断裂。
接下来,将更加详细地描述本实施例的连接件14的结构。回到图1-图3,所述连接件14可包括连接块141、连接腹板142以及连接框架143。所述连接块141的一端形成所述心脏瓣膜支架近端,另一端通过所述连接腹板142与所述连接框架143连接,连接块141是为了与输送心脏瓣膜支架的输送器进行连接。
参考图3,沿着从所述心脏瓣膜支架近端到所述心脏瓣膜支架远端的方向,所述连接框架143可依次包括支撑件连接部分、定位件连接部分以及紧固件连接部分。在一种具体实施方式中,支撑件连接部分可为对称的,一边与第一支撑件的第一支撑臂连接,一边与相邻的第二支撑件的第二支撑臂连接。在一种优选的实施方式中,支撑臂与连接框架连接处的上边缘为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为100°-160°。同时,支撑臂与连接框架连接处的下边缘也为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为锐角。
回到图3,支撑件的支撑臂包括X点,第一支撑臂或者第二支撑臂在X点处弯曲,变形的点远离了连接框架,减少了受力集中。因为支撑件与定位件都与连接框架143连接,而连接框架143的空间有限,所以如果连接框架中的支撑件连接部分和定位件连接部分位置十分靠近。如果支撑件相对于连接框架的形变位置与定位件相对于连接框架形变的位置都是在连接处,而支撑件与定位件分别位于瓣膜两侧,所以如果两者相对于连接框架形变的位置太近,容易对靠近连接框架的原生瓣膜产生较大的剪切力,从而伤害瓣膜,而且变形区太过接近,也容易发生应力集中,造成支撑件/定位件与连接框架的连接处断裂。此时,需要增大两者相对于连接框架形变位置之间的距离,所以通过增加支撑件与连接框架的横截面积,同时保持支撑件与连接框架的流线型,便于输送器释放改支架,支撑臂与连接框架连接处的上边缘为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为100°-160°,而支撑臂与连接框架连接处的下边缘也为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为锐角是为了和下侧的定位件与连接框架连接处形成应力集中释放圆弧,防止形成应力集中点,造成支撑件/定位件与连接框架的连接处断裂。在本文所述的心脏瓣膜支架中,支撑件相对于连接框架的变形位置转移到远离连接框架的X点,解决了容易对靠近连接框架的原生瓣膜产生较大的剪切力的问题,而且两个变形区的位置变远,也防止了应力过于集中的问题。
在一种具体实施方式中,所述连接腹板的宽度小于所述连接块的宽度,且小于所述支撑件连接部分的宽度。在另一种实施方式中,所述连接框架包括中空的长条形缝合孔144。长条形缝合孔144的一端可设置在支撑件连接部分,另一端设置在定位件连接部分或者紧固件连接部分。长条形缝合孔144可以实现人工瓣叶的近端边缘直接穿过缝线孔进行缝合,而无需增加缝合垫片,人工瓣叶的边缘与紧固弧进行缝合,这样的缝合方式,相对传统的使用垫片与支架挤压固定瓣叶的方式,首先减少了支架的外附加的零部件,而且没有了垫 片,也有利于支架的进一步压缩,如果有垫片,不仅仅影响支架压缩,甚至有时在支架压缩支架较小的情况下会损坏人工瓣叶。
在另一种实施方式中,所述定位件可包括拉线复合环124,所述拉线复合环固定连接至所述定位件,且位于所述定位件朝向所述心脏瓣膜支架近端的一侧,所述拉线复合环包括第一通孔1241和第二通孔1242,所述第一通孔用于安装标记,所述第二通孔适于穿入拉线,且所述第二通孔比所述第一通孔更靠近所述心脏瓣膜支架近端。在一种具体实施方式中,所述第一通孔的孔径大于所述第二通孔的孔径。定位件12的远端设置的拉线复合环结构,将拉线与标记“marker”(标记是不透射线的)的安装结合到一个位置,有效的降低了产品的空间占有率。利用一个位置,可以实现定位件的开合控制与定位,不仅提高了产品的压缩性能,利于产品使用导管进行输送,而且定位件可以张开还利于降低手术操作的难度。拉线复合环结构有两个通孔,大孔是为了放置marker点,以便于植入精准定位,确保定位件触及窦底,小孔方便穿入拉线,在植入过程中,通过拉线控制定位件张角,方便捕获瓣叶,减小操作难度。在一种优选的实施方式中,所述拉线复合环设置在所述定位件远端,且相对于支架轴线向内倾斜,防止支架晃动过程中,拉线复合环近端碰撞主动脉壁,从而损伤主动脉,严重的可能会导致使用者发生主动脉夹层,而威胁使用者生命。从而可通过拉线将定位件向心脏瓣膜支架外部牵拉。
在一种具体实施方式中,参考图4和图5,心脏瓣膜支架远端还包括卡位端16和加强网15,在卡位端和16和加强网15之间存在镂空结构17。在本实施例中,卡位端16的菱形方格数量为18个,有效的增加该心脏瓣膜支架的可压缩性,而且构成菱形方格的杆宽是渐变的(中间细两头宽),以优化支架抗疲劳性能。此外,因为本文所述的心脏瓣膜支架只包括18个菱形方格,本心脏瓣膜支架相邻紧固弧之间只需一个加强网15来连接卡位端即可,可以形成大量镂空部位,有效的降低了该心脏瓣膜支架的重量,而且便于压缩,而且构成菱形方格的杆宽是渐变的(中间细两头宽),以优化支架抗疲劳性能。此外,加强网15的存在既可以增加支架的中部结构强度,也可以隔离自体瓣叶,以防侵犯到人工瓣叶。
在附图所示的实施方式中,心脏瓣膜支架可包括3个结构相同的支撑件、定位件、紧固件和连接件。相邻的连接件通过支撑件、定位件和紧固件相连。同时,相邻的支撑件、定位件和紧固件又通过连接件相连。当心脏瓣膜支架处于伸展状态时,基本上成圆筒状。人工心脏瓣膜瓣叶则可夹在支撑件和定位件之间,如图6和7所示。
实施例2
实施例2与实施例1的不同之处在于所述支撑件包括适于穿入拉线的支撑件拉线环 114。
参考图8和图9,所述支撑件拉线环114固定连接至所述支撑件,且位于所述支撑件朝向所述心脏瓣膜支架远端的一侧。在实施例1中结合附图对心脏瓣膜支架特征的描述也适用于本实施例,在此不再赘述。
在一种具体实施方式中,当所述心脏瓣膜支架处于压缩状态时,所述支撑件拉线环的位置与所述拉线复合环的位置对齐。在一种具体实施方式中,所述支撑件拉线环相对于所述支撑件向外倾斜,优选地,所述支撑件拉线环相对于所述支撑件向外倾斜角度α为100°-160°,从而支撑件拉线环相对于支架的轴线向外倾斜,这样的设置使得该支撑件拉线环不会干涉到人工瓣叶,而且此时支撑件拉线环朝向瓣膜,能够使得瓣膜更加牢靠的固定在支撑件与定位件之间。
本实施例的心脏瓣膜支架可降低实施例1将原生瓣叶夹合到定位件与支撑件之间的难度,在支撑件的远端增加拉线环,通过一根拉线3控制定位件,一根拉线3控制支撑件,使得定位件向外侧打开,而支撑件向内侧弯曲,从而使两者形成较大的间隙,便于将原生瓣叶夹入定位件与支撑件之间。
实施例3
本实施例提供一种抗反流心脏支架,实施例3与实施例1的不同之处在于支撑件和定位件之间设置有连接结构。下面将参考图10-13详细描述本实施例的抗反流心脏支架。
首先参考图10和图11,其中图10显示根据本实施例的抗反流心脏支架1处于伸展状态时的立体图,图11显示根据本实施例的抗反流心脏支架1的展开图。
如图10和图11所示,本实施例所述的抗反流心脏支架1可包括在该抗反流心脏支架处于伸展状态时靠近心尖的抗反流心脏支架远端以及在该抗反流心脏支架处于伸展状态时远离心尖的抗反流心脏支架近端。抗反流心脏支架近端可包括连接件14以及设置在相邻连接件之间的定位件12和紧固件13。紧固件13可用于固定人工心脏瓣膜瓣叶。
在本实施例中,支撑件11可包括第一支撑臂111、第二支撑臂112以及连接所述第一支撑臂111和第二支撑臂112的支撑件远端113。第一支撑臂111固定连接至第一连接件,第二支撑臂112固定连接至第二连接件,第一连接件与所述第二连接件相邻。类似地,定位件12可包括第一定位臂121、第二定位臂122以及连接所述第一定位臂和所述第二定位臂的定位件远端123。第一定位臂121固定连接至第一连接件,且第二定位臂122固定连接至第二连接件,所述第一连接件与所述第二连接件相邻。此外,紧固件13包括第一紧固弧131、第二紧固弧132以及连接所述第一紧固弧和所述第二紧固弧的紧固件远端133。所述第一紧固弧固定连接至第一连接件,所述第二紧固弧固定连接至第二连接件,所述第 一连接件与所述第二连接件相邻。
在本实施例中,定位件12比支撑件11更靠近抗反流心脏支架远端,紧固件13比定位件12更靠近所述抗反流心脏支架远端。支撑件远端113和定位件远端123为朝向所述抗反流心脏支架远端凸起的杆。定位件12设置在原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶的一侧,且紧固件13设置在原生心脏瓣膜瓣叶的另一侧。
与传统的抗反流心脏支架相比,本文所述的抗反流心脏支架还包括支撑件11,支撑件11使得该抗反流心脏支架能够更加顺利地自膨,增加了自膨时的径向力。与此同时,定位件12上设置有拉线复合环124,拉线复合环124和支撑件11之间设置有连接机构18。
在一种具体实施方式中,通过连接机构18将支撑件远端113与拉线复合环124连接在一起。如果连接机构、支撑件及定位件的刚度足够强,可以认为三者就是一个整体。设置连接机构18的有益效果如下所述。为了便于描述,将连接机构、支撑件及定位件形成的整体为夹合组件。首先,因为夹合组件在夹合瓣膜后,由于支架一直受到血液的冲刷,而且人也是运动的,所以支架并不是完全相对于瓣膜是静止的状态,而是相对的动态过程。所以夹合组件受力情况也是不断变化的,是一直变形动作的状态,即使动作幅度比较小,所以夹合组件相对与连接位置容易发生疲劳断裂,而三者结合的夹合组件,与连接件有两个连接点,而每一个连接处的截面积小,在变形时产生的内应力小,增加了疲劳寿命。其次,夹合组件的连接机构的设计,主要是防止支撑件和定位件各自运动,产生不一致的夹合力,例如:支撑件夹合较紧,而定位件较松,则定位件的设置失去了夹合作用。而相反,定位件夹合较紧,支撑件较松,则支撑件的设置失去了夹合作用。所以通过连接机构将两者连接到一起,使其共同运动,进一步解释,支撑件和定位件在打开的过程中(假设不设置连接机构),两者的远端的距离一直是变化的,而如果通过连接机构将两者进行连接,那么其两者远端的距离将不再改变,所以就限制了夹合组件的张开角度,或说增加夹合组件打开时所需要的力,因为此时两者不仅仅是需要克服张开时的力,还需要有更多的力去实现两者的变形而使得两者的远端的距离保持不变,所以增强了夹合组件在夹紧瓣膜时的力,不容易松开。
在本实施例中,连接机构18可为一根连杆。在另一种实施方式中,连接机构18也可为折线结构。在一种具体实施方式中,所述拉线复合环124固定连接至所述定位件12,且位于所述定位件12朝向所述抗反流心脏支架近端的一侧。
在一种优选的实施方式中,所述拉线复合环包括第一通孔1241和第二通孔1242,所述第一通孔用于安装标记,所述第二通孔适于穿入拉线,且所述第二通孔比所述第一通孔更靠近所述抗反流心脏支架近端。在一种具体实施方式中,所述第一通孔的孔径大于所述第二通孔的孔径。定位件12的远端设置的拉线复合环结构,将拉线与标记“marker”(标 记是不透射线的)的安装结合到一个位置,有效的降低了产品的空间占有率。利用一个位置,可以实现定位件的开合控制与定位,不仅提高了产品的压缩性能,利于产品使用导管进行输送,而且定位件可以张开还利于降低手术操作的难度。拉线复合环结构有两个通孔,大孔是为了放置marker点,以便于植入精准定位,确保定位件触及窦底,小孔方便穿入拉线,在植入过程中,通过拉线控制定位件张角,方便捕获瓣叶,减小操作难度。在一种优选的实施方式中,所述拉线复合环设置在所述定位件远端,且相对于支架轴线向内倾斜。从而可通过拉线将定位件向抗反流心脏支架外部牵拉。
拉线复合环和支撑件之间的连接机构使得能同步控制定位件和支撑件的开合,增加了抗反流心脏支架的径向操控性。连接机构的设置还增加了人工心脏瓣膜瓣叶与人工抗反流心脏支架的接触面积。如上所述,这种设置可以增加人工抗反流心脏支架的耐疲劳性能。
在一种具体实施方式中,参考图11,当所述抗反流心脏支架处于压缩状态时,所述第一支撑臂和所述第二支撑臂为线性的。当所述抗反流心脏支架处于压缩状态时,所述第一定位臂和所述第二定位臂为线性的。当所述心脏瓣膜支架处于压缩状态时,所述第一定位臂和所述第二定位臂为线性的。将第一定位臂和第二定位臂设计成线性的是为了便于压缩,在进行充分压缩时,其占用的空间最小,即相邻第一支撑臂和第二支撑臂在压缩时会充分靠拢。而且线性的结构可以保证两者在压缩时不会干涉,因此,第一定位臂和第二定位臂为线性的目的也是为了在压缩时会充分靠拢而不会干涉。另外,本支架采用一根钢管进行切割而成的,线性的设计也利于加工,减短了加工路径,降低了加工成本。
在一种具体实施方式中,所述定位件远端为抛物线结构,减小了定位件与窦底的接触应力,防止瓣环破裂。
在一种具体实施方式中,当所述抗反流心脏支架处于伸展状态时,所述支撑件具有第一张开角度,所述定位件具有第二张开角度,所述第二张开角度为4°-14°,且所述第一张开角度小于所述第二张开角度。定位件12与紧固件13产生一定的张角,便于定位件12捕捉瓣叶,减少手术难度。定位件12可用于防止瓣膜心室方向移位、促使人工瓣叶的远心端与原生瓣叶对齐,使其最大程度的还原原生瓣膜的功能,而同时保持人工瓣膜能够位于原有原生瓣膜的位置,因此人工瓣膜就很好的替代了原生瓣膜,降低了对血流的影响,减少血栓的发生,而第二张开角度为4°-14°的设置能够使得定位件12与紧固件13能夹紧原生瓣膜,防止原生瓣膜自由运动,同时原生瓣叶与支架紧密贴合,减少了瓣周漏。
在一种具体实施方式中,所述定位件远端最靠近所述抗反流心脏支架远端之处与所述抗反流心脏支架远端最远处(即下文描述的卡位端16)的垂直距离为4mm-8mm,优选地为6mm。
在一种具体实施方式中,卡位端的远端的相对于卡位端的近端外扩,并且卡位端的远 端相对于卡位端的近端外扩的角度为6°-14°。需要产生外扩的原因是防止轻量化心脏瓣膜支架往主动脉方向位移,起到锚定作用。同时,而不能产生过大的角度原因是防止触碰希氏束,从而影响心脏的正常跳动,危及生命。
在一种具体实施方式中,紧固件13的宽度比支撑件11和定位件12的宽度更宽,以提供强有力的支撑。
接下来,将更加详细地描述本实施例的连接件14的结构。回到图1和图2,所述连接件14可包括连接块141、连接腹板142以及连接框架143。所述连接块141的一端形成所述抗反流心脏支架近端,另一端通过所述连接腹板142与所述连接框架143连接,连接块141是为了与输送抗反流心脏支架的输送器进行连接。
参考图2,沿着从所述抗反流心脏支架近端到所述抗反流心脏支架远端的方向,所述连接框架143可依次包括支撑件连接部分、定位件连接部分以及紧固件连接部分。在一种具体实施方式中,支撑件连接部分可为对称的,一边与第一支撑件的第一支撑臂连接,一边与相邻的第二支撑件的第二支撑臂连接。在一种优选的实施方式中,支撑臂与连接框架连接处的上边缘为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为100°-160°。同时,支撑臂与连接框架连接处的下边缘也为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为锐角。
回到图2,支撑件的支撑臂包括X点,第一支撑臂或者第二支撑臂在X点处弯曲,变形的点远离了连接框架,减少了受力集中。因为支撑件与定位件都与连接框架143连接,而连接框架143的空间有限,所以如果连接框架中的支撑件连接部分和定位件连接部分位置十分靠近。如果支撑件相对于连接框架的形变位置与定位件相对于连接框架形变的位置都是在连接处,而支撑件与定位件分别位于瓣膜两侧,所以如果两者相对于连接框架形变的位置太近,容易对靠近连接框架的原生瓣膜产生较大的剪切力,从而伤害瓣膜,而且变形区太过接近,也容易发生应力集中,造成支撑件/定位件与连接框架的连接处断裂。此时,需要增大两者相对于连接框架形变位置之间的距离,所以通过增加支撑件与连接框架的横截面积,同时保持支撑件与连接框架的流线型,便于输送器释放改支架,支撑臂与连接框架连接处的上边缘为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为100°-160°,而支撑臂与连接框架连接处的下边缘也为平滑的弧线,且弧线的角度为锐角是为了和下侧的定位件与连接框架连接处形成应力集中释放圆弧,防止形成应力集中点,造成支撑件/定位件与连接框架的连接处断裂。在本文所述的心脏瓣膜支架中,支撑件相对于连接框架的变形位置转移到远离连接框架的X点,解决了容易对靠近连接框架的原生瓣膜产生较大的剪切力的问题,而且两个变形区的位置变远,也防止了应力过于集中的问题。
在一种具体实施方式中,所述连接腹板的宽度小于所述连接块的宽度,且小于所述支撑件连接部分的宽度。在另一种实施方式中,所述连接框架包括中空的长条形缝合孔144。 长条形缝合孔144的一端可设置在支撑件连接部分,另一端设置在定位件连接部分或者紧固件连接部分。长条形缝合孔144可以实现人工瓣叶的近端边缘直接穿过缝线孔进行缝合,而无需增加缝合垫片,人工瓣叶的边缘与紧固弧进行缝合,这样的缝合方式,相对传统的使用垫片与支架挤压固定瓣叶的方式,首先减少了支架的外附加的零部件,而且没有了垫片,也有利于支架的进一步压缩,如果有垫片,不仅仅影响支架压缩,甚至有时在支架压缩支架较小的情况下会损坏人工瓣叶。
在一种具体实施方式中,参考图11到图13,抗反流心脏支架远端还包括卡位端16和加强网15,在卡位端和16和加强网15之间存在镂空结构17。在本实施例中,卡位端16的菱形方格数量为18个,有效的增加该抗反流心脏支架的可压缩性,而且构成菱形方格的杆宽是渐变的(中间细两头宽),以优化支架抗疲劳性能。此外,因为本文所述的抗反流心脏支架只包括18个菱形方格,本抗反流心脏支架相邻紧固弧之间只需一个加强网15来连接卡位端即可,可以形成大量镂空部位,有效的降低了该抗反流心脏支架的重量,而且便于压缩,而且构成菱形方格的杆宽是渐变的(中间细两头宽),以优化支架抗疲劳性能。此外,加强网15的存在既可以增加支架的中部结构强度,也可以隔离原生瓣叶,以防侵犯到人工瓣叶。
在附图所示的实施方式中,抗反流心脏支架可包括3个结构相同的支撑件、定位件、紧固件和连接件。相邻的连接件通过支撑件、定位件和紧固件相连。同时,相邻的支撑件、定位件和紧固件又通过连接件相连。当抗反流心脏支架处于伸展状态时,基本上成圆筒状。人工心脏瓣膜瓣叶则可夹在支撑件和定位件之间,如图15所示。
实施例4
实施例4与实施例3的不同之处在于连接机构18为含菱形方格的连杆。
具体来说,参考图14A,连接机构18可包括第一连杆181,第二连杆182,以及连接第一连杆181和第二连杆182的菱形方格183。第一连杆181的一端可固定连接到拉线复合环124的第二通孔,另一端固定连接到菱形方格183的一个顶点。第二连杆的一端可固定连接到支撑件,另一端固定连接到菱形方格183的另一个顶点。第一连杆181和第二连杆182的纵向轴线可在同一直线上,且第一连杆181的长度可小于第二连杆182的长度。
优选地,参考图14A和图14D,构成菱形方格183由两个格连杆Ⅰ1831和两个格连杆Ⅱ1832组成,其中两个格连杆Ⅰ1831的一端共同连接于第一连杆181的一端,两个格连杆Ⅱ1832的一端共同连接于第二连杆182的一端,所述格连杆Ⅰ1831的另一端(自由端)与格连杆Ⅱ1832的另一端(自由端)固定连接。
优选地,所述格连杆Ⅰ1831的另一端(自由端)与格连杆Ⅱ1832的另一端(自由端) 通过弯曲连接部184固定连接,其中弯曲连接部184的宽度L2小于格连杆Ⅰ1831及格连杆Ⅱ1832的宽度L1,这样使得格连杆Ⅰ1831与格连杆Ⅱ1832更容易相互活动,相对于直接通过一根连杆连接支撑件远端113与拉线复合环124的方式,降低了对定位件远端的柔性的影响。当例如人跳动或支架受到血液冲击时,会带动支架产生上下运动,此时定位件的远端会砰击主动脉瓣环底部,因为定位件通过复合拉线环连接有连接机构,所以造成定位件的远端高度较强,主动脉瓣环底部在多次碰撞下,会产生一定的损伤,而连接机构的具有一定的柔度,可以大幅度降低定位件远端的刚度,减少了定位件远端对主动脉瓣环底部的伤害。
最后,连接机构可包括折线结构。具体来说,参考图5B,其中折线结构可以是含有一半菱形方格的连杆,即折线结构包括:第一连杆181,所述第一连杆181的一端连接有一个格连杆Ⅰ1831,所述格连杆Ⅰ1831的另一端固定连接格连杆Ⅱ1832,所述格连杆Ⅱ1832的另一端固定连接于第二连杆182的一端,优选的,所述格连杆Ⅰ与格连杆Ⅱ通过弯曲连接部184固定连接,其中弯曲连接部184的宽度小于格连杆Ⅰ1831及格连杆Ⅱ1832的宽度,这样使得格连杆Ⅰ1831与格连杆Ⅱ1832更容易相互活动,相对于直接通过连杆连接支撑件远端113与拉线复合环124的方式,降低了对定位件远端的柔性的影响。当例如人跳动或支架受到血液冲击时,会带动支架产生上下运动,此时定位件的远端会砰击主动脉瓣环底部,因为定位件通过复合拉线环连接有连接机构,所以造成定位件的远端高度较强,主动脉瓣环底部在多次碰撞下,会产生一定的损伤,而连接机构的具有一定的柔度,可以大幅度降低定位件远端的刚度,减少了定位件远端对主动脉瓣环底部的伤害。
在另一种实施方式中,折线结构也可以如图14C所示,采用S型的结构设计,即第一连杆181通过三根连杆进行与第二连杆182固定连接,但折线结构并不限于此,第一连杆181可以通过若干根连杆进行与第二连杆182固定连接,优选的,第一连杆181与第二连杆182之间的若干根连杆可以通过弯曲连接部184进行连接。
对于上述连接机构18的实施例,需要声明的是,第一连杆181与第二连杆182的长度可以为零,即第一连杆181与第二连杆182之间的部件可以直接固定连接到支撑件远端113与拉线复合环124。
实施例5
实施例5与实施例1的不同之处在于加强网的结构不同。由于相邻紧固弧之间的角度较小,所以在该抗反流心脏瓣膜支架自膨胀时,容易自膨胀不到位,所以增加具有较大径向支撑力的加强网来实现其膨胀到预定尺寸。
参考图16-19,在本实施例中,所述加强网可包括沿着从心脏瓣膜支架远端到心脏瓣 膜支架近端的方向依次设置的第一自膨胀弧151、第二自膨胀弧152和第三自膨胀弧153。所述第一自膨胀弧的一端与紧固件的第一紧固弧固定连接,另一端与相邻紧固件的第二紧固弧固定连接,且朝向心脏瓣膜支架远端凸起。所述第二自膨胀弧的两端分别固定连接至所述第一自膨胀弧,且朝向心脏瓣膜支架近端凸起。所述第三自膨胀弧的一端与紧固件的第一紧固弧固定连接,另一端与相邻紧固件的第二紧固弧固定连接,且朝向心脏瓣膜支架远端凸起。所述第二自膨胀弧和所述第三自膨胀弧之间存在间隙。
在一种具体实施方式中,第一自膨弧的宽度大于第二自膨弧与第三自膨弧的宽度。第一自膨弧的尺寸相对第二自膨弧、第三自膨弧的尺寸大,而且跨度也最大,所以第一自膨弧需要提供更大的径向支撑力,依此保证其稳定支撑性能,所以第一自膨弧的宽度较宽,通过第一自膨弧、第二自膨弧、第三自膨弧构成的加强网设置,不仅依旧能够防止原生瓣膜侵入人工瓣膜,而且还解决了相邻紧固弧之间径向支撑力弱,自膨胀不到位的问题。
在一种具体实施方式中,第一自膨弧151由两个自膨臂Ⅰ1511构成,两个自膨臂Ⅰ的近端分别与两个紧固弧的中部位置固定连接,两个自膨臂Ⅰ的远端相互连接,且连接处与卡位端也固定连接。
在一种具体实施方式中,第二自膨弧152由两个自膨臂Ⅱ1521构成,两个自膨臂Ⅱ的远端分别与两个自膨臂Ⅰ的中部位置固定连接,两个自膨臂Ⅱ的近端相连接。自膨臂Ⅱ的长度不大于自膨臂Ⅰ长度的一半,优选的,自膨臂Ⅱ的长度为自膨臂Ⅰ长度的一半;
在一种具体实施方式中,第三自膨弧153由两个自膨臂Ⅲ1531构成,两个自膨臂Ⅲ的近端分别与两个紧固弧靠近近端的1/4处固定连接,两个自膨臂Ⅱ的远端相连接。自膨臂Ⅲ的长度不大于自膨臂Ⅱ的长度一半,优选的,自膨臂Ⅲ的长度为自膨臂Ⅱ长度的一半;
上述的设计,可以实现空间的合理利用,而且实现一个管材就可以实现其结构。
在本实施例中,当心脏瓣膜支架处于扩展状态时,紧固件的第一紧固弧与相邻紧固件的第二紧固弧形成第一圆角154;第二自膨胀弧具有第二圆角155,第三自膨胀弧具有第三圆角156。第三圆角156不大于其对应的相邻紧固弧形成的第一圆角154,因为越靠近紧固件近端的连接处,其空间越小,即材料的数量越多,即无材料占据空间越少,假设第三圆角156大于第一圆角154,该抗反流支架在被压缩时,两个自膨臂Ⅲ由于在两个紧固弧之间,所以两个自膨臂Ⅲ靠近的距离相对于两个紧固弧靠近的距离会更小,所以两个自膨臂Ⅲ会非常靠近,因此过大的第三圆角156会阻止两个自膨臂Ⅲ相互靠近,甚至阻挡相邻紧固弧靠近,所以会造成该反流支架压缩困难,甚至在压缩的过程中过大的第三圆角156会因为过渡的挤压而发生断裂,而第二圆角155对应的第二自膨弧152具有较大的跨度,所以需要提供足够大的支撑力以满足其实现较大的跨度,所以第二圆角155是大于第一圆角154的,显然,类似与上述第三圆角156与第二第一圆角154的大小关系的原因,第二 圆角155是大于所对应的第二自膨弧152的两个自膨臂Ⅱ1521连接处所形成的圆角。
在本实施例中,设置有第一自膨弧151、第二自膨弧152及第三自膨弧153,但是这并不代表加强网仅仅设置三个自膨弧,可以在第二自膨弧152的内侧设置一个新的自膨弧,而新的自膨弧的两个自膨臂连接处所形成的圆角不大于对应的第二自膨弧152的两个自膨臂Ⅱ1521连接处所形成的圆角,而且新的自膨弧的自膨臂的宽度并且小于其连接的自膨弧的自膨臂,以此减少空间占用率,新的自膨弧还可以再设置新的自膨弧,同理,第三自膨弧的内侧也可以设置新的自膨弧,但是加强网总的自膨弧数量不超过5个,以免影响该抗反流支架的压缩性能。
实施例6
本实施例提供一种不含支撑件的抗反流心脏瓣膜支架。
实施例6与实施例1的不同之处在于不含支撑件。
如图20-23所示,与实施例1所述的抗反流心脏瓣膜支架相比,本实施例的抗反流心脏瓣膜支架不包含支撑件。
通过取消支撑件,将定位件的近端与连接框架的近端连接,或定位件的近端与连接腹板的远端进行连接,并且定位件与连接腹板的连接处就形成连接框架的近端。上述结构设计因为取消了支撑筋,所以定位件的近端能够设置的更加靠近该抗反流心脏瓣膜支架近端的位置,进而增加了定位件近端到远端的距离,即增加了定位件夹合原生瓣叶的空间,所以在面对较大的主(肺)动脉的原生瓣叶时,定位件不会因为原生瓣叶的阻挡而无法插入窦底,定位件远端能够充分的插入到窦底,防止了定位件的远端因无法插入窦底而造成该抗反流心脏瓣膜支架在心脏心室舒张期间产生的较大的压差下发生位移,使得定位件远端会冲击到窦底的情况出现,而造成窦底伤害。
此外,如图23所示,卡位端的连杆采用中间细、两头粗的设计,优化了支架抗疲劳性能,但是中间位置过细,则会影响卡位端的径向支撑力。所以需要在保证卡位端径向支撑力的基础上,以优化支架卡位端的抗疲劳性能,所以卡位端连杆的最小宽度X应控制在最大宽度尺寸Y的0.53~0.93倍的范围内。
实施例7
本实施例提供一种不含支撑件的抗反流心脏瓣膜支架。
实施例7与实施例5的不同之处在于不含支撑件。
如图24-26所示,与实施例1所述的抗反流心脏瓣膜支架相比,本实施例的抗反流心脏瓣膜支架不包含支撑件。通过取消支撑件,将定位件的近端与连接框架的近端连接,(或 定位件的近端与连接腹板的远端进行连接,并且定位件与连接腹板的连接处就形成连接框架的近端),上述结构设计因为取消了支撑筋,所以定位件的近端能够设置的更加靠近该抗反流心脏瓣膜支架近端的位置,进而增加了定位件近端到远端的距离,即增加了定位件夹合原生瓣叶的空间,所以在面对较大的主(肺)动脉的原生瓣叶时,定位件不会因为原生瓣叶的阻挡而无法插入窦底,定位件远端能够充分的插入到窦底,防止了定位件的远端因无法插入窦底而造成该抗反流心脏瓣膜支架在心脏心室舒张期间产生的较大的压差下发生位移,使得定位件远端会冲击到窦底的情况出现,而造成窦底伤害。
实施例8
实施例8与实施例7的不同之处在于拉线复合环的结构不同。
具体来说,传统的定位件远端设置有标记“marker”(标记是不透射线的),虽然“marker”的设置在一定程度上便捷了支架的定位植入,但是却存在着“marker”脱落的风险。如果“marker”脱落后随着血液流动进入其它器官,这将会严重影响使用者的安全。而现在取消“marker”安装孔,而是将拉线复合环的表面设置不透X射线标记层或在拉线复合环的表面增加高密度金属镀层等,使得拉线复合环能够在X射线下更加清晰。
在另一种实施方式中,参考图27-29,可以把拉线复合环做成特别的形状,如葫芦型,三角星型,棱型,猫爪型等,便于操作人员能够快速识别拉线复合环,以此替代标记“marker”。
本领域技术人员易于理解,本实施例结合拉线复合环所描述的特征也适用于其它实施例。
实施例9
实施例9与实施例7的不同之处在于加强网的结构不一样。
参考图30到图34,在该实施例中,加强网15由曲自膨弧157、联结格158及第三自膨弧153组成。曲自膨弧157由四段组成,分别为曲臂Ⅰ1571、曲臂Ⅱ1572、曲臂Ⅲ1573、曲臂Ⅳ1574。其中曲臂Ⅰ、曲臂Ⅳ分别连接紧固弧靠近远端的0.25到0.33处(紧固件由两个紧固弧构成),其中曲臂Ⅰ、曲臂Ⅱ的远端固定连接,且连接处与卡位端连接,其中曲臂Ⅲ、曲臂Ⅳ的远端固定连接,且连接处与卡位端连接,其中曲臂Ⅱ、曲臂Ⅲ的近端固定连接,且连接处固定连接联结格,联结格包括两个联结臂1581。
两个联结臂1581的远端位置相互连接,并且其连接处固定连接曲自膨弧,其中曲自膨弧的曲臂Ⅰ、曲臂Ⅱ、曲臂Ⅲ、曲臂Ⅳ的长度相等,两个联结臂的近端位置相互连接,并且其连接处固定连接第三自膨弧,第三自膨弧包括两个自膨臂Ⅲ,其中自膨臂Ⅲ的近端 与紧固弧连接,且连接点在靠近紧固弧近端Q长度的位置,Q值小于等于1/4的紧固弧长度,自膨臂Ⅲ的长度Z不小于0.8Q,从而实现联结格会支撑第三自膨弧和曲自膨弧,在一定程度上促进了该抗反流支架的自膨胀,不会阻挡牵拉第三自膨弧和曲自膨弧,而影响该抗反流支架膨胀,该数据的得出是通过计算发现,这里需要说明的,相邻紧固件的张开角度一般小于60°,当自膨臂Ⅲ的长度Z小于0.6Q时,联结格的轴向高度H,也就是第三自膨弧和曲自膨弧之间的距离,会随着该抗反流支架的膨胀而增大,从而无法达到支撑第三自膨弧和曲自膨弧的目的,所以取自膨臂Ⅲ的长度Z不小于0.8Q,其中0.6~0.8的区间主要是做系数缓冲区。
实施例10
实施例10与实施例9的不同之处在于加强网的结构不一样。
参考图35-39,在该实施方式中,联结格158的联结臂1581上设置有联结孔1582,其每个联结臂上的联结孔可以设置一个或多个,当联结孔设置一个时,设置在联结臂的中部。当联结孔设置多个时,联结孔均匀分布在联结臂上。此时,通过缝合线分别穿过两个联结臂上的联结孔,并拉紧缝合线,这里采用的缝合线是具有弹性的,为了实现联结格具有一定的灵活性,依旧可以有一定程度的周向长度L方向上的变形,但同时限制联结格在周向长度L上的增大,所以联结格的轴向高度H将会增大,所以联结格会提供一个更大的力去支撑第三自膨弧和曲自膨弧,从而更加促进了第三自膨弧的张开与曲自膨弧的张开,使得该抗反流支架能够自膨胀达到预期效果。
为了实现联结格的两个联结臂在膨胀时能够分别向两侧弯曲,联结臂为弧线结构,相对于联结格,其弧线结构的凹面朝向内侧,弧线结构的凸面朝向外侧。
实施例11
本实施例提供一种抗反流心脏瓣膜支架,其还包括网格状覆膜,所述网格状覆膜固定在所述抗反流心脏瓣膜支架内侧。
参考图40和41,在一种具体实施方式中,所述网格状覆膜3通过与抗反流心脏瓣膜支架1的各部件缝合的方式固定至所述抗反流心脏瓣膜支架。人工瓣叶2则可缝合到网格状覆膜3上。
传统的人工瓣叶缝合到抗反流心脏瓣膜支架上的方式为人工瓣叶与抗反流心脏瓣膜支架,例如紧固弧进行缝合,但是紧固弧表面人工是光滑的,那么人工瓣膜固定不牢靠,通过紧固弧设置为曲线形状,或增加固定孔,为了保证紧固弧的强度,所以增加紧固弧的宽度,这就使得抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的体积变大,造成抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的压缩困难, 无法达到预期的压缩抗反流心脏瓣膜支架。
由于自膨胀抗反流支架需要压缩的直径较小,所以在材料厚度及其宽度都受到了很大的限制,所以该抗反流支架希望在压缩时,不会受到过多的外力干扰,例如来自覆膜的作用力。
传统的抗反流支架采用的覆膜多为PET编织的材料,而编织的纹路多为横平竖直,即PET编织布的横线与纵线相互垂直90°,而在缝合时,PET编织布的纵线与该抗反流支架的轴线相互平行,而横线与该抗反流支架的周向方向相平行,所以在该抗反流支架压缩过程中,由于覆膜与支架相固定。所以,PET编织布的纵线长度是确定的,而该抗反流支架在压缩的过程中会增长,尤其是卡位端的菱形结构的连杆相互连接点中的上下两个连接点的长度会增加,而与其固定PET覆膜的纵线(下称:纵线)并不会增长,所以此时的纵线就会阻挡卡位端的菱形结构压缩边长,所以此时菱形结构在外力的作用下继续压缩,而纵线却一直阻挡菱形结构压缩,所以此时的卡位端的菱形结构在压缩和阻挡压缩的两个力的作用下,极易产生菱形结构的变形而损坏菱形结构。但是这里需要说明的是,传统的横平竖直的PET覆膜产生的阻挡压缩的力不仅仅作用于卡位端的菱形结构,也作用于加强网的菱形结构及紧固件,阻挡两者的压缩,从而影响整个支架的压缩,甚至其产生的阻止该抗反流支架的作用力在使得整个支架在压缩过程中造成支架损坏。
参考图40和图41,在一种具体实施方式中,该抗反流心脏瓣膜支架使用PET材料编织的网布进行覆膜,覆膜3通过与抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的各部件进行缝合,因为抗反流心脏瓣膜支架错综复杂,从而使得覆膜能够牢靠的固定在抗反流心脏瓣膜支架内侧。由于抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的尺寸会改变,人工瓣叶如果与抗反流心脏瓣膜支架相缝合,那么随着抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的变化,人工瓣叶的尺寸和形状也需要跟着变化,降低了人工瓣叶的通用性,增加了成本,而且因为需要保证人工瓣叶的性能参数符合要求,所以改变瓣膜大小和形状需要重新进行设计使其达到标准,所以人工瓣叶人工不具备通用性也会增加了设计人员的设计强度。
采用人工瓣叶与覆膜相结合的方式,与传统的使用整体人工瓣叶覆盖整个抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的方式相比,增加了抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的可压缩性,因为使用的PET材料编织的网布的厚度小于人工瓣叶,降低了对抗反流心脏瓣膜支架内部空间的占用,所以增加了抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的可压缩性。
人工瓣叶可包含一种或多种合成材料、工程化生物组织、生物瓣叶组织、心包组织、交联心包组织、主动脉根组织、经化学或生物加工/处理的组织,或它们的组合。在一些实施例中,心包组织选自但不限于由牛、马、猪、绵羊及人的组织或它们组合所组成的群组。
在本实施例中,人工瓣叶的远端固定方式不再是与紧固弓固定连接而是跨过紧固弓,与紧固弓与卡位端抗反流心脏瓣膜支架的覆膜固定连接,由于覆膜是可以使用缝合线任意穿透的,所以可以使人工瓣叶紧固的与覆膜进行连接,而且可以增加缝合的密度,使其人工瓣叶与覆膜之间的密封性能更好,防止了血液通过人工瓣叶与覆膜的结合位置发生泄漏,而且通过覆膜与人工瓣叶进行缝合,操作人员无需使缝合线频繁的绕过紧固弓或固定孔,降低了操作人员的劳动强度,提高了效率。
在一种具体实施方式中,人工瓣叶如果与支架相缝合,那么随着支架的变化,人工瓣叶也必然随着支架运动,而且支架的运动相对于覆膜是刚性的,即运动状态固定,所以人工瓣叶和支架缝合,在该抗反流支架压缩过程中,支架会对人工瓣叶产生撕扯,而人工瓣叶和覆膜相缝合,覆膜相对柔软,并允许一定程度的位移,所以不会对人工瓣叶产生强有力的撕扯力,保证了人工瓣叶的安全。
在一种具体实施方式中,为了覆膜能够适应该抗反流支架,对PET编织布的进行设计,改善了人工瓣叶与连接框架固定方式。
PET编织布通常可由纵线(经线)和横线(纬线)编织而成。参考图42,PET编织布的纵线与横线的角度设置为60°~90°。设置该角度的原因在于:卡位端及其加强网的菱形结构中的任意两个直接连接的连杆形成的夹角(锐角或钝角的补角)的范围是60°~90°,所以使得PET编织布的纵线与横线形成的夹角与菱形结构中的相连接的连杆形成的夹角(锐角或钝角的补角)一致。需要声明的是,当菱形结构中的相连接的连杆形成的夹角是90°时,PET编织布的纵线与横线的角度也为90°,而菱形结构中的相连接的连杆形成的夹角一般不小于60°,如果角度过小,会影响其周向支撑力。
而在缝合时,需要确保PET编织布的纵线与菱形结构的其中一个连杆平行固定在支架上,而由于横线与纵线形成的夹角与菱形结构中锐角是相同的,所以与该固定有PET编织布的连杆与直接连接的相邻连杆会与PET编织布的横线相平行。此时横线与该连杆进行固定。以此类推,卡位端及加强网的菱形结构的各个连杆会分别与PET编织布的纵线或横线平行并固定连接。此时在压缩该抗反流支架时,与菱形结构连杆固定连接的PET编织布会伴随连杆运动,而此时菱形结构的连杆的上下连接点之间也是通过若干根纵线与横线构成,而不是由一根纵线(横线)构成连接。在PET编织布的横线与纵线在伴随着菱形结构的连杆运动时,远离相对于该抗反流支架轴线倾斜的横线或纵线逐渐变成与轴线平行的状态,此时横线与纵线的两端的轴向距离(指沿着该抗反流支架的轴线方向的距离)会逐渐增大。此时PET编织布的轴线距离随着该抗反流支架压缩一起变长,从而不会阻挡该反流支架压缩变形。
在一种具体实施方式中,如图47和48所示,人工瓣叶的耳部403穿过连接框架143, 并绕过连接框架的侧柱使其耳部尾端由回到该抗反流支架的内部,并与人工瓣叶主体与耳部连接处的人工瓣叶相贴合,并通过波浪状缝合线5贯穿位于同一连接框架的人工瓣叶,将人工瓣叶耳部尾端紧密的与人工瓣叶结合,并且将相邻的人工瓣叶的主体与耳部连接处(下称:耳部连接处)紧密的贴合,实现了人工瓣叶的固定以及相邻人工瓣叶靠近支架侧的紧密结合。需要声明的是,波浪状折线是指缝合线按照波浪线的路径进行缝合,其主要目的是增大了人工瓣叶耳部尾端与人工瓣叶耳部连接处的接触面积,增加了稳定性,同时也增加了相邻人工瓣叶的耳部连接处的接触面积,防止了人工瓣叶靠近支架侧的血液反流。
在一种具体实施方式中,如图49和50所示,因为人工瓣叶具有一定的弹性,而仅仅使用波浪状缝合线固定人工瓣叶,在人工瓣叶的弹性作用下,会造成人工瓣叶相对连接框架的侧柱滑动,从而影响人工瓣叶的效果,所以需要增加人工瓣叶对侧柱的包裹力,所以增加围绕缝合线6。
第一个实施例,每一个相邻的围绕缝合线都是独立的,该围绕缝合线围绕连接框架一圈,使得人工瓣叶的耳部紧密的贴合侧柱。而相邻的围绕缝合线依次从波浪状缝合线两侧的凹谷处穿过,有效的防止了围绕缝合线仅仅撕拉波浪状缝合线一侧的人工瓣叶,影响人工瓣叶的性能及使用寿命。
第二个实施例,围绕缝合线自上而下是一个顺时针螺旋缠绕的围绕缝合线与另一个逆时针螺旋缠绕的围绕缝合线形成的,相对于上述的独立围绕缝合线,每一个螺旋缠绕的围绕缝合线采用一体的螺旋的围绕缝合线,操作简单,而且固定牢靠,没有过多的缝合线端头,增加了使用稳定性,这里的一个并不是指一根缝合线,也可以是一束缝合线即若干根缝合线,两个缝合线依次穿过波浪状缝合线两侧的凹谷,防止了连接框架因为缝合产生不对称的力,从而对人工瓣叶产生撕扯力,影响力人工瓣叶的性能及使用寿命。
在一种具体实施方式中,人工瓣叶设置的耳部相对于人工瓣叶主体上平线向下倾斜,其主要原因是:为了进一步的缩短该反流支架的长度,所以连接框架的位置距离人工瓣叶的远端相对于人工瓣叶的近端距离人工瓣叶的远端而言,距离会更短,所以人工瓣叶的耳部为了能够顺利放入连接框架内,所以需要向下倾斜,而且向下倾斜的两个人工瓣叶耳部在连接框架的作用下会相互平行,所以此时人工瓣叶主体上平线就会弯曲,利于工瓣叶的闭合。
在一种具体实施方式中,如图42-45所示,人工瓣叶2可包括人工瓣叶主体404、耳部403、紧固件401和内凹区402。在一种具体实施方式中,人工瓣叶主体设置为大体的V型,但是在人工瓣叶主体靠近远端的两侧设置有内凹区,其主要目的是适应紧固件,由于紧固件在压缩过程中会从曲型转变为直线型,传统的人工瓣叶在内凹区位置是外凸的(下 称外凸区),这将会在紧固件变直的过程中产生较大的阻抗力,从而造成人工瓣叶缝合位置过渡挤压的情况,尤其是其外凸区的中点位置,产生的挤压情况是最严重的。而本设计的内凹区是内凹的,所以内凹区的中点到紧固件的距离短,即人工瓣叶的用料少,具有较大的空间容纳挤压过程中挤压的材料,所以在紧固件变直的过程中,不会对瓣叶的缝合位置产生过渡的挤压情况。
在一种具体实施方式中,参考图46,人工瓣叶主体的远端变远设置有防磨边条405,采用缝合的方式与人工瓣叶主体结合,其固定牢靠,而且防磨边条设置首先是增加了人工瓣叶主体远端的抗撕裂能力,其次是降低了人工瓣叶主体远端与覆膜的摩擦对人工瓣叶的损伤,提高了人工瓣叶的使用寿命,而且防磨边条的设置也相当于人工瓣叶与覆膜之间的缓冲层,有效的缓冲了人工瓣叶在开合过程中对覆膜的撕扯作用力,增加了该抗反流支架的使用寿命。
在该实施方式中,卡位端内侧覆膜即为防漏裙边。
在一种具体实施方式中,卡位端的远端设置有防漏裙边(图中未示出),采用卡位端外侧也覆膜的方式,外侧覆膜远心端一直到紧固弓的近心端,其卡位端外侧覆膜可以是内侧覆膜外翻至外侧,也可以是单独一个覆膜,有效的防止反流支架产生侧漏,增加了该支架的防侧漏性能。
对于本领域技术人员而言,显然本发明不限于上述示范性实施例的细节,而且在不背离本发明的精神或基本特征的情况下,能够以其他的具体形式实现本发明。因此,无论从哪一点来看,均应将实施例看作是示范性的,而且是非限制性的,本发明的范围由所附权利要求而不是上述说明限定,因此旨在将落在权利要求的等同要件的含义和范围内的所有变化囊括在本发明内。不应将权利要求中的任何附图标记视为限制所涉及的权利要求。
