Specific embodiment
I. conduit is summarized
According to this theme, conduit system is configured to allow for the expandable members of such as sacculus and very rapidly expands and receive Contracting, and especially allow the expandable members sequentially(For example interval and repeatedly)Expansion and contraction.In certain embodiments, The sequential inflation of sacculus and contraction are by one touch type(single-touch)Activate to realize.Term " one touch type " used herein Meaning allows expandable members expansion and the actuating shunk to come real by single switch, single button or other single points It is existing.Thus, user simply presses or activate actuator expands sacculus, and press the actuator again so that The contraction of dynamic sacculus.Thus, expand with generally requirement measurement size, preparation and by rotating the screw on dilation device Angioplasty catheter it is different, one embodiment of present system can make its in the case where preparing promptly Use.
Showing to this progressively, many steps of angioplasty balloon catheter requirements are measuring size, preparation, go degasification Bubble and use device, but the conduit system of the embodiment of system according to the invention is much effective, it is shorter so as to provide Operating time simultaneously reduces the risk of patient.Therefore, system as described herein causes post-processing step to reduce, and finally leads to Crossing saving for survival is the time of key factor and has saved life.
Rapid-exchange catheter is removed from patient body, introduces to deliver benefit agent by foley's tube on seal wire no Replaced to balloon distal and then again under the quick additional step for exchanging foley's tube, traditional rapid exchange angioplasty art Foley's tube does not have measure that the benefit agent of such as medicine is delivered to the balloon distal of foley's tube body.
In addition, though foley's tube can block blood flow and deliver substances into catheter body distal end on seal wire Distal end, but conduit embodied herein is provided the advantage that.The quick use for exchanging length wire rod is most common.The present invention's Conduit can be used in the case of switching seal wire not lost time.Switching seal wire(RX is switched to OTW)The consuming time.The present invention Pipe guide allow during seal wire stays in place by operator, and OTW catheter design needs doctor to change and may disturb Move the position of seal wire.Thus, even if benefit agent can be delivered to OTW conduits the distal end of catheter body, change seal wire Lost time.The conduit system of the present invention can extend on seal wire, and sacculus can be delivered to blood vessel in benefit agent Another other region while block blood vessel.In one embodiment, a kind of sacculus for being dimensioned for all sizes is allowed Benefit agent is delivered to operator the position of blood vessel.And, the situation for meeting balloon features with blood vessel is completely contradicted, sacculus symbol The ability of conjunction shape of blood vessel allows to make conduit once in the tube chamber of multiple sizes and in multiple positions.In other devices, If operator wants to deliver medicine or other compounds during angioplasty or post processing are performed the operation, he or she must not Do not obtain various sizes of angioplasty balloon benefit agent is delivered in the diverse location of blood vessel.On the contrary, herein Described conduit allows catheter movement to other positions.Thus, when conduit is used to deliver such as medicine or other therapeutic agents During benefit agent, compared with angioplasty balloon conduit on traditional quick exchange foley's tube or seal wire, reality described herein The advantage with regard to reducing using the step required for conduit and operative procedure quantity for applying example becomes obvious.Thus, when needs make When benefit agent being delivered to balloon distal with conduit, there is no time-saving advantage using rapid-exchange catheter.So far, doctor It is limited to save the seal wire of time advantage on foley's tube with rapid-exchange catheter identical using no.Therefore, present invention system System is provided and is quickly exchanged by the ability of catheter delivery therapeutic agent by while conduit is coupled with quick exchange guidewire The benefit of foley's tube on foley's tube and seal wire.
In traditional angioplasty technology, the size and diameter of sacculus must with wait to expand aortic blocking sections Size and native diameter match.If the size of sacculus and diameter are less than natural tremulous pulse, the result of balloon angioplasty It is less than optimal, need to carry out second expansion with larger sized sacculus.Cause operative failure in some cases and understand Need second individually angioplasty procedures program or replacement pipe operation(bypass surgery).If sacculus relative to The blocking sections of native blood vessels is excessive, then the inwall of tremulous pulse can be cut open and completely plugged blood vessel from the remainder of tremulous pulse, caused Blood totally terminates to the flowing of myocardium target region.The complication can cause acute myocardial infarction and necessary urgent replacement pipe handss Art.If acute infarct causes bigger infraction, death may be caused.
If patient has single position of being obstructed in right coronary artery service system or left coronary artery system, will be to think The expansion surgical selection wanted has the single foley's tube of matching diameter and size.When sacculus is in natural artery or other blood vessels In blocking sections during expansion, sacculus should maintain initial pre-shaped configuration and diameter under maximum allowable pressure.It is single expanding During injury, although have and initially irrelevantly have selected foley's tube so that having to second foley's tube comes successfully complete Into the situation of operative procedure, but the foley's tube of suitable size is selected to be better simply.
However, in many angiopathys, foley's tube selects to become chaotic and complicated.For example, patient may be coronal on a left side In tremulous pulse have three injuries, these three injuries each can be close to successfully to realize balloon angioplasty. But these injuries are likely to be in the different blood vessel of size.By conventional balloon conduit in the different injury of size Middle execution angioplasty is not that federation is impossible, but this is not only troublesome but also poorly efficient.For each injury, matching Foley's tube is exchanged and is manipulated in target injury.For this purpose, three continuous operations substantially need the operative procedure of three times Time, the radiography dosage of three times, and the detached foley's tube of minimum of three and its auxiliary equipment.
According to the one side of described theme, there is provided a kind of more powerful and balloon catheter system more efficiently. In one embodiment, balloon catheter system is pre-assembled device, with a kind of sacculus for being dimensioned for all sizes, the ball Capsule is designed in various different blood vessels(Such as coronary vasodilator, peripheral blood vessel, spinal column blood vessel, cerebral blood vessel)Used in, from And the device that a kind of operator need not expand selection pressure or volume to sacculus is provided.Therefore, doctor need not lose time On additional step needed for sacculus sizing and preparation, and needed for the exactly traditional angioplasty balloon conduit of these steps Want.Thus, one embodiment of system provides a kind of mode for easily and efficiently using conduit, the conduit quilt for doctor It is designed so that sacculus promptly expands and shrinks, so as to be applied not only to for example reduce after ischemic events or prevent to device Official or the reperfusion injury of tissue(Such as post processing), operator is additionally operable to typically using traditional angioplasty balloon conduit Other application occasion.
When the system of the present invention is used for after-treatment applications occasion, system can be used for(1)By making sacculus in the blood vessel The expansion regular hour measures to stop the hemoperfusion to organ or tissue;With(2)By make sacculus shrink another a period of time come Allow the Reperfu- sion to organ or tissue, sequentially reexpansion(Stop)And contraction(Perfusion);Alternatively(3)By such as medicine The benefit agent of thing, contrast agent, therapeutic preparation etc. is delivered to the region of balloon distal.
Sacculus can be configured to blood vessel is blocked in expandable members expansion or during expanding, and and then allow to expand Open component to tighten or recover blood perfusion during shrinking.The vascular system of blocking can include the venous blood such as in retroperfusion Pipe, or the arteries such as in Reperfu- sion.The blood vessel of blocking can come from coronary vasculature, peripheral vasculature, big Brain vascular system or other vascular systems.
As shown in the schematic diagram in Figure 1A and Figure 1B, in one embodiment, by from making catheter-balloon by traumatic part The near-end expansion and contraction one or many circulation of position(Circulate from about 10 seconds to 60 seconds until about 30 minutes every time)To realize Post processing.In one example, sacculus expands and maintains about 30 seconds, and then sacculus shrinks and maintains about 30 seconds(Figure 1A).Another In one embodiment, sacculus expands and maintains less than 20 seconds, and then sacculus shrinks and maintains contraction state about 20 seconds to about 2 points Clock.Repeat these circulations if necessary to performing post processing therapy.Term as used herein " circulation " refers to once complete Expansion and collapse step.For example, expandable members sequentially shrink and expand with allow hemoperfusion about 10 seconds to about 60 seconds or More long and stop perfusion about 10 seconds to about 60 seconds or more long(For example, 30 minutes)Circulate for one or many.In some enforcements In example, it is repeated about 3 times and is recycled to about 10 times or circulates more times.However, it is possible to adopt other post-processing approachs, for example, exist The post processing that the United States Patent (USP) of Vinten-Johansen et al. is illustrated in disclosing No.2004/0255956 and 2007/0160645 Method, the content disclosed by these patents are incorporated by reference in this text for all purposes.However, conduit system described herein System is not limited to post processing operation or is not limited to prevent or reduces reperfusion injury.
In certain embodiments, foley's tube is designed to beating support in the case where implanted stent size is not changed Ink vessel transfusing expansion.So, expandable members are compliant balloons as described below, and the compliant balloon is swollen in sacculus There is no negative influence to implanted support during swollen and contraction.Thus, according to one embodiment, can be in the pipe of implanted support Intracavity occurs including the medical operating program in making sacculus expansion and being contracted in.

Fluid circuit is generally included:Along the expansion tube cavity and independent contraction tube chamber of the arrangement of catheter shaft 200;It is arranged in Control system in handle 100;With multiple valves, controlling and adjust expansion fluid by conduit system pulsation and/or The flowing of regulation and control.Fluid is " closure " fluid circuit, therefore the building block in the loop is not exposed to air.As a result, expand Fluid is down to atmospheric pressure when being comprised in fluid circuit.
In certain embodiments, fore and aft axis 200 includes ingress port and outlet port.Ingress port is by from as fluid The expansion fluid stream pressurization of the first reservoir of 1000 part of loop control system.Expansion flow of fluid is by fore and aft axis 200 Expansion tube cavity 203, enters the interior section of expandable members 300 via ingress port.Expansion fluid enters expandable members 300 Internal flowing causes expandable members expansion and the blood flow in blood vessel is blocked when being placed in the blood vessel.It is arranged in fore and aft axis Outlet port on 200 helps expandable members 300 to shrink by providing opening, described to be open for receiving expansion fluid Flow to contraction tube chamber 204 from expandable members 300 during contracting.
Outlet port is configured to help the venturi assist type flowing in tube chamber 204 is shunk, expansible to make Component 300 shrinks.For example, expansion tube cavity 203 and contraction both tube chambers 204 can be opened wide in expandable members 300.Expansion stream Body can be entered by expandable members 300 from expansion tube cavity 203 and be shunk in tube chamber 204.Expansion tube cavity 203 and contraction tube chamber 204 are coupled together by a series of one way stop peturn valves.In one embodiment, the bulbs of pressure cause contraction check-valves to remain turned-off. In check-valves and the rear side of pulse valve(back side)The pressure of upper accumulation(Figure 10;117th, 112 and 109)Produce venturi effect Should shrink so that promotion is rapid.When actuator being maneuvered to punctured position, the pressure on the rear side for shrinking check-valves is removed. Therefore check-valves are opened, and expandable members 300 can be shunk.The bulbs of pressure exhaust rapidly generation Venturi effect, i.e. expansion Exhausting rapidly for pressure declines balloon pressure(draw down), and expansion fluid is pulled together by shrinking tube chamber to device Floss hole in handle.Floss hole is not opened wide to air.In fluid circuit between the floss hole in contraction tube chamber and handle It is positioned with valve.When expansion fluid under Venturi effect when pulled, spring up expansion fluid pressure open valve, so as to shrink Fluid can be discharged in handle.When contraction fluid is drained from fluid circuit, valve cuts out to keep fluid circuit to cut out.Cause And, expandable members are in the time contract less than a second, and in certain embodiments, expandable members are less than 1/4 second Time contract.
According to another aspect of the present invention, can expand via trigger as described above or button control sacculus And contraction.This have the advantage that, which allows sacculus promptly to expand and shrink, and allow for example for after-treatment applications When shorter Reperfu- sion circulation time.Figure 11 is illustrated and is implemented for here and described conduit system(Referred to as " PUFF ")And biography System angioplasty catheter device(Referred to as " AngioPC ")Bulking Time and contraction time contrast.As illustrated, of the invention Conduit system compared with traditional angioplasty catheter expand and shrink with the speed of excess.With can be with about 0.50 second The pipe guide of the present invention of speed expansion is compared, and the expansion of plasty conduit is about 4.84 seconds.Shrink result and angiopoiesises are shown Art conduit was shunk with least 6.81 seconds, and the conduit of the present invention can be in about 1.0 seconds contracts.
In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 12, control system 1000 includes actuator 107, and which can be light in finger Hit the lower expansion and contraction for activating expandable members 300.Actuator 107 can activated sacculus is sequentially expanded and shrink with For after-treatment applications occasion or other application occasion.It has been found that the ischemia of a period of time or middle Herba Clinopodii(For example but not limit During STEMI or other infractions)Opening rapidly tremulous pulse afterwards can cause reperfusion injury.A kind of reduction reperfusion injury Method is to be engraved in the tremulous pulse of infraction sequentially to start and stop after initial flow is reopened from STEMI or other obstructions Hemostasis stream is repeatedly circulated.The present invention is designed to realize rapid effective and reproducible post processing for the system that doctor provides.Bag Include control system 1000 fluid circuit 110 be designed to allow need not other be input into or electronic device in the case of by Single actuator 107 carrys out operating system, and which is referred to as " touch ".Actuator 107 can be configurable to include for making to expand Open the first position or direction and the second position or direction for making the contraction of expandable members 300 of the expansion of component 300.For example, Actuator 107 can be button(Fig. 9 F), switch(Fig. 9 A)Or lever(Fig. 9 B), which has for activating the instantaneous of sacculus expansion Direction and for activate sacculus contraction can braking direction.By by doctor interact be limited to only one switch, button or Lever, can provide the repeatability in terms of the expansion and contraction of expandable members 300 according to the time requirement of post processing.Cause This, fluid circuit design and a touch are activated and are provided using easiness and degree of reproducibility for post processing.In addition, here is implemented Device allow the doctor of management post processing to pay close attention to watch-dog or miscellaneous equipment instrument, this with must pay close attention to device during use Situation completely contradict.
In one embodiment, expand fluid the regulation that the Fluid pressure of sacculus 300 is led in control is discharged into from reservoir 101 Device or single pressure check valve.As fluid circuit is not opened wide to air, the expansion fluid being conditioned is not lowered to atmospheric pressure Power.The expansion fluid being conditioned is by the stream of suction line 106 to actuator 107(For example switch), the actuator control expansion stream Body is by check-valves stream is to pulse valve 113 and is flowed to sacculus 115 then.
The permission expansion fluid of pulse valve 113 is in valve with the specified time period from ingress port stream to outlet port.Such as will Ground is described below, can for example by the size of the ingress port in setting pulse valve, outlet port and relative spring pressure To specify the time.Such as in Figure 11 A to Figure 11 C preferably illustratively, in one embodiment, pulse valve 113 includes being disposed in Inwall 1401 in cylindrical body 1400.Cylindrical body 1400 has first end 1410 and relative the second end 1411.Tool There are ingress port 1406 and the inwall 1401 of outlet port 1407 to be disposed between first end 1410 and the second end 1411 Body 1400 in.Preferably, ingress port 1406 is more than outlet port 1407, to make expansion fluid pass through ingress port stream Enter the speed in the cylindrical body between the second end 1411 and inwall 1401 and be faster than and flowed by outlet port 1407 The speed of the cylindrical body between one wall 1410 and inwall 1401.Therefore, with the expansion Fluid Volume phase for leaving outlet port 1407 Expansion Fluid Volume in the entrance ingress port 1406 of contrast causes Fluid pressure to tire out between the second wall 1411 and inwall 1401 Product.As a result, as shown in Figure 11 B, when the pressure of accumulation promotes inwall, the pressure of accumulation applies active force to inwall, and most The intensity of spring 1402 is overcome eventually and causes spring-compressed.The contact of inwall 1401 is disposed in the stop structure in cylindrical body 1400 Part 1405.In certain embodiments, retainer is arranged on the inner surface of cylindrical body.The retainer is disposed in the port of export The near-end of mouth 115, the outlet port are directed to such as sacculus 300(It is not shown)Expandable members path.Such as institute in Figure 11 C Show that the contact retainer 1405 of inwall 1401 becomes axially to be aligned with the outlet port 115 for leading to sacculus 300.When inwall 1401 When being axially aligned with outlet port 115, the path provided by port is blocked so that not expanding that fluid can advance to can Expansion 300.Therefore, pulse valve 113 provides the actuator of a kind of " anti-misoperation ".Specifically, even if doctor continues to press Hydraulic actuator is expanded by expandable members 300, but can not expand further expandable members, because outlet 115 is by inwall 1401 blockings.Thus, even if taking other trial to expand, before more expansion fluids can be by system, it is also necessary to First by the system cut-off.Thus, system can safely control the Fluid Volume into expandable members.Expansion fluid can be this Known various fluids in technical field.For example, it can be gaseous fluid or liquid fluid to expand fluid.In illustrative mesh , expansion fluid can be carbon dioxide or saline.
In another embodiment, fluid circuit includes that the venturi assist type of expandable members shrinks.So, produce Vacuum is so that the expansion fluid from expandable members promptly shrinks.Specifically, when contraction is activated by doctor, pulse valve It is de-energized, the fluid in pulse valve is escaped so as to discharge the pressure on rear side of check-valves, this generates Venturi effect so that ball The time that capsule shrinks shortens.In certain embodiments, expandable members are preferably being lacked in the time contract of less than about 5 seconds In the time contract of about 3 seconds, more preferably in the time contract less than 1 second.
As described herein, control loop 1000 as shown in figure 12 includes fluid circuit 110, and the fluid circuit is substantially It is upper to include pipeline 106(Figure 10)With multiple check-valves, pass through fluid circuit most Zhongdao fore and aft axis 200 to regulate and control expansion fluid The flowing of expansion tube cavity, expansion tube cavity and the fluid circuit 110 and expandable members 300 of fore and aft axis are in fluid communication, and pass through Independent contraction tube chamber is returned.The exploded view of one embodiment of fluid circuit is shown in Figure 10.It is housed in handle 100 Fluid circuit 110 can include consisting of part:For providing the first reservoir 101 of inflating liquid under pressure, for example but not limit In BestWhip(LG)(Genuine Innovations, Part2042 or 4130)(Figure 13 A);For controllably water conservancy diversion One reservoir 101 penetrates mechanism 103, such as such as lancet assembly, SA00102, SA00068, SA00101 or MM235008- 21N、MM235008-11N(Genuine Innovations)(Figure 13 B to Figure 13 F);For control from expansion fluid to can expand Open the pressure regulator 104 of the pressure of component 300(MAR-1 is respectively for example(Clippard)Or SA00196(Genuine Innovations), Figure 13 G to Figure 13 H).It is alternatively possible to single pressure check valve or constant pressure regulator are used, for example, Qosina-P/N11582 or " Lee Chek " Part Number CCPI2510014S,(Figure 13 P);To by pressure regulator 104 adapters 105 for being connected to tubular element 106(It is not shown), for example, UTO-2-PKG(Clippard)(Figure 13 I);For The actuator 107 of the flowing that control expansion fluid is entered in expandable members 300 from the first reservoir 101, such as master switch, such as FBV-3DMF(Clippard)(Figure 13 K);For tubular element 106 to be connected to the company of actuator 107 from pressure regulator 104 Connect device 108, for example, CT2-PKG(Clippard)(Figure 13 J);For the diverter 109 to expanding divided fluid stream, for example, UT0- 2002-PKG(Clippard)(Figure 13 L);Adapter 111, such as CT2-PKG(Clippard)(Figure 13 M), the adapter is used for Diverter 109 is connected to into pulse valve 113, such as PV-1 by tubular element 112(Clippard)(Figure 13 N), so as to by one The controlled pulse for determining the expansion fluid of volume is delivered to expandable members 300;Adapter 114, such as rotational connector, such as UTO-2-PKG(Clippard)(Figure 13 O), the adapter is to be connected to one way stop peturn valve 115 by pulse valve 113(For example, CCPI2510000S(Lee Company)Or Qosina-P/N11582(Figure 13 P)), one way stop peturn valve permission expansion fluid stream To expandable members, and guarantee that the flow direction for expanding fluid is only unidirectional, i.e., from pulse valve 113 to the swollen of fore and aft axis 200 Tube expansion chamber 203;Diverter 116, such as UT0-2002-PKG(Clippard)(Figure 13 R), which passes through tubular element 117 and is connected to Diverter 109, wherein diverter self-constriction in 109 future tube chamber 204 it is hose connection to pressure indicator 118;Pressure indicator 118, such as IND-1-WH(Clippard)(Figure 13 S), which is used to illustrate the pressure shunk in tube chamber 204 to guarantee expansible structure Part 200 is inflated;Double hose barbs 119(It is not shown), such as C22-PKG(Clippard)(Figure 13 Q), for by check-valves 120 are connected to the flexible pipe for leading to conduit;And check-valves 120, such as CCPI12510000S(Lee Company)(Figure 13 T), To guarantee to expand flow direction of the fluid from the outlet tube chamber on conduit pulse valve to entrance tube chamber 203.As shown, Fluid circuit does not need electronic device to operate.
As shown in the block diagram of Figure 14 A, in operation, expand fluid(It is carbon dioxide in this example)By penetrating Storage state of the mechanism 103 from the first reservoir 101 is flowed out.Expansion fluid stream enters in main valve or actuator switch.At some In embodiment, the flowing for expanding fluid is stopped turnover main valve.As shown in Figure 14 B, fluid circuit can be configured to permit Perhaps expand fluid to flow in second check-valve through valve.In certain embodiments, it is allowed to which gas flows about 0.1 second.During this section of Jing Between after, the second valve can be configured to no longer allow expansion flow of fluid.Check-valves allow expansion fluid stream to enter in sacculus but Do not flow out from sacculus.3rd check-valves allow expansion fluid to flow out from sacculus but do not flow into sacculus.When expansion fluid(Such as dioxy Change carbon gas)When flowing expansion check-valves, expansion fluid has higher pressure, so system is now locked(Expansion).Separately Outward, as shown in Figure 14 C, thus the pressure depletion inside the second valve produces venturi power as mentioned above, with all gas Body is discharged from the top of main valve and sacculus is drawn in punctured position.Now, main valve does not allow gas to flow into.Therefore, fluid is returned Road allows user makes expandable members sequentially expand and shrink in rapid continuous easily mode.Handle can also include arteries and veins Valve is rushed, flowing is delivered to sacculus 300 in the way of by time control or by fixing fabric structure.In this aspect, second pipe Shape component can include one way stop peturn valve, the carbon dioxide delivered by pulse valve is locked in expandable members 300.
V. indicator
Shrinking tube chamber in certain embodiments includes indicator --- such as but not limited to pressure monitor --- to guarantee Sacculus expands.In certain embodiments, pressure monitor is disposed in sacculus and shrinks and expanded with guaranteeing sacculus between check-valves. For example, if conduit can not be allowed expansion by knot, it indicates that device would not indicate and expand.In addition, if conduit is at sacculus There is leakage, it indicates that device would not indicate and expand.Therefore, indicator is the authentic testing of sacculus expansion.
In one embodiment, indicator 118(Fig. 9 A, 9B, 9C and Figure 10)Or pressure marker is arranged in the near of system End end.In one embodiment, indicator 118 includes the protruding member being associated with the contraction tube chamber of system.At some In embodiment, indicator 118 is configured to be extended through when pressure is sensed in the contraction tube chamber of system at least in part Handle 100.So, indicator orientation can be the state that doctor points out expandable members.In other words, when indicator is due to for example Pressure force button to extend and stretch out from handle casing 100 and by doctor it is visible when, doctor can be appreciated that expansion fluid can The fact that in expansion.On the contrary, the indicator do not stretched out from handle 100 informs user expandable members without completely swollen It is swollen.As indicator is associated with the contraction tube chamber at the proximal end of system(For example it is connected), indicator is only next The pressure of self-inflating fluid has passed through expansion tube cavity and expandable members are in fluid communication and pass through contraction tube chamber and return to system Proximal section till could indicate or extend.Thus, unless expandable members are expanded at the distal section of conduit system, no So indicator 118 would not instruct that pressure.Advantageously, indicator is the instruction of balloon interior true pressure.On the contrary, and collapsible tube The indicator of chamber not in direct fluid communication will not truly indicate that sacculus is swelling state or contraction state.
VI. loading attachment
In one embodiment, as shown in the sectional view in Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 B, and best referring to Figure 10, fluid is returned The control system 1000 on road 110 generally includes the first reservoir 101(Such as container or tank), which has the expansion stream for having stored Body.First reservoir 101 can be chosen(Based on size)So that the specific sacculus expansion with special size and contraction.Therefore, Selected reservoir size can prevent from reusing and/or promoting safety, especially when expansion fluid is gas-pressurized(Such as dioxy Change carbon)When.
In certain embodiments, loading attachment 114(Figure 15 A)The near-end of the first reservoir is disposed in, and is constructed use In device is loaded.Loading attachment can be irreversible.In this aspect, " irreversible " means once the device of the present invention It is loaded, then can not be released from loading.Before the use, loading attachment 114 is activated to penetrate containing expansion fluid by doctor Reservoir 110.For example as shown in Figure 15 A and Figure 15 B, when loading attachment 114 is pushed down, the first reservoir 101 is pushed forward, And the ratchet on handle casing 112 is engaged with protuberance 116, so as to prevent loading attachment 114 from returning to its raw bits Put.System is loaded, and thus allows open flow of the fluid from the first reservoir 101.
The other embodiments of loading attachment 114 are shown in Figure 15 C to Figure 15 N.For example, in Figure 15 C and Figure 15 D, dress Carry and put 114 and formed by button 114a and wedge 114b, button and wedge are positioned such that to be applied on button 114a Down force cause wedge 114b along movement in vertical direction, the expansion being stored in from there through release in reservoir 101 Fluid makes the first reservoir 101 move forward in " loaded " position.Protuberance 116 again with the ratchet on the handle casing 112 Engagement, so as to prevent both button 114a and wedge 114b from returning to its home position.
Level type safety device 114 is shown in Figure 15 E to Figure 15 J.As illustrated, doctor must be by lever from first Position moves to the second position, to make the first reservoir 101 proceed in its " loaded " position.Lever loading attachment 114 it is initial Position and final position are dependent only on the manufacture requirements of system.In certain embodiments, on 112 side of handle casing Ratchet is engaged with the both sides of lever loading attachment 114, thus prevents lever loading attachment 114 from returning to its home position.
Can also some embodiments of the invention using pulling-on piece type loading attachment as shown in Figure 15 K to 15L 114.In these embodiments, pulling-on piece type loading attachment 114 can be formed by pulling-on piece 114c and spring mechanism 114d.Spring is inclined It is pressed in the state of contraction, till pulling-on piece is removed.By pulling-on piece 114c being removed from handle 100 allow spring mechanism 114d Elongation, spring apply active force and promote or allow the first reservoir 101 to engage guiding device(Such as lancet), so as to device is filled Carry.
In other embodiments, loading attachment 114 can be screw type loading attachment, such as the institute in Figure 15 M to Figure 15 N Show.As illustrated, the screw thread 114e on loading attachment 114 engages the opening in shell 112.Rotate along appropriate direction and fill Carry and put 114 and cause loading attachment 114 to advance forward, and cause the first reservoir 101 to proceed in its " loaded " position.At some In embodiment, loading attachment 114 can include locking mechanism(It is not shown), its prevent the first reservoir 101 be released from load and/ Or rotate along the opposite way round.
As described, loading attachment 114 is by making the first reservoir 101 and penetrating component 103(Fig. 9 A, Figure 10)Engagement and First reservoir 101 is loaded so that reservoir is by water conservancy diversion or penetrates to discharge the expansion fluid for being contained in reservoir inside the shell.Flow out Fluid is into fluid circuit and eventually flows into the expandable members at the distal ports of catheter body for expansion, and via independent receipts Flow out from sacculus in draw chamber.
VII. the local application of benefit agent
As described above, the conduit that here is implemented can be included for delivering the injection tube chamber 206 of benefit agent.Note Enter tube chamber 206 to be configured to before, during or after post-processing technology partly apply medicine or other therapeutic agents To the region that ischemic events occur.In this aspect, the benefit agent of effective dose partly can be applied by the medical treatment for being provided With so as to alleviate the reperfusion injury of the tissue or organ that are already subjected to or are undergoing ischemia.
Therefore, according to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a kind of to be used to alleviate histic infarct side after ischemic events Method.In one embodiment, the method makes sacculus expand in intravascular, to block blood at least in part in first time period Pipe.First time period can be about five seconds or it is less until the time, ten seconds of five minutes or it is less until five minutes when Between, 15 seconds or less until the time, 20 seconds of five minutes or less until the time, 30 seconds of five minutes or less Until the time of five minutes.Then, sacculus shrinks in intravascular so that allow in second time period Reperfu- sion at least in part Blood flow.Second time period can be longer or shorter than first time period.For illustrative purposes, second time period can be five seconds Or it is less until the time, ten seconds of five minutes or less until the time, 15 seconds of five minutes or less until five points The time of clock, 20 seconds are less until the time, 30 seconds of five minutes or less until time, 40 seconds of five minutes Or it is less until the time, 50 seconds of five minutes or less until time of five minutes.Allowing to fill again at least in part After note, sacculus can be expanded at least in part to block blood vessel in the 3rd time period, and and then sacculus is shunk to allow again Secondary Reperfu- sion at least in part.These steps can repeat in a sequential manner, benefit agent can also during expansion step, Ischemic area is delivered to during collapse step or during two steps partly.In one embodiment, only filling again Benefit agent is applied during note step.In another embodiment, deliver benefit agent to circulate down to eight post processings per 30 seconds. After this manner, circulation refers to expansion step(Blocking)And subsequent collapse step(Reperfu- sion).
The another aspect of theme according to disclosed by current, the apparatus and method of the present invention were significantly reduced in the post processing phase Between required for radiography dosage.Although contrast agent typically use it is safe, apply various contrast medias can cause it is many Plant health.Reaction can sometimes result in death from slightly to serious.The risk factor of development severe reaction include strongly Allergy, bronchial asthma, heart disease and beta-blocker are used.Therefore, the usage amount for reducing contrast agent is conducive to reduction of patient The risk of untoward reaction.For example, reduce contrast agent use is for diabeticss and other crowds with complication are Preferably.
As shown in Figure 16, the Reperfu- sion system of the present invention by represented by " PUFF " chart has used the contrast agent of 0.37ml To confirm post processing blocking and the Reperfu- sion of eight circulations, and the traditional angioplasty technology by represented by " AngioPC " makes With the contrast agent of 7.75ml.Therefore, the contrast agent needed for traditional angioplasty catheter is almost embodied herein and institute 21 times of the pipe guide of description.Thus, the apparatus and method of the present invention fully reduce contrast agent exposure.It is right as more than In delivering therapeutic agent described by, contrast agent can be delivered to outlet or the end for being positioned in balloon distal by the tube chamber of conduit Mouthful.The a series of images described by Figure 17 illustrates the Reperfu- sion that contrast agent is deployed at the port 250 of 300 distal end of sacculus and follows Ring(Arrow " A " indicates flow direction).As outlet is disposed in the distal end of sacculus, sacculus can be made first to expand to block blood Stream, then can be with delivery of contrast agents.In the case where blood flow is blocked, contrast agent will not be diluted or be forced downstream.As a result, The present invention provides preferably control and visibility while less contrast agent is needed.
Therapeutic agent delivery and the effect being absorbed by the patient can be strengthened in balloon distal positioning delivery port.Although in Figure 16 In depict single port 250, but according to expecting to include extra port.In addition, contrast agent and therapeutic agent can be with roots It is arranged on according to expectation and has in the detached tube chamber of detached outlet in balloon distal.In another embodiment, retouched at present The catheter shaft for stating theme can include detached tube chamber to deliver contrast agent detached with benefit agent.Tube chamber can be according to expectation Near-end or the distal end of sacculus are disposed in, such that it is able to contrast agent and/or benefit agent to be delivered to near-end or the distal end of sacculus.
VIII. using the exemplary application of conduit
The conduit that here is implemented and described can be used for various application scenarios, including localized drug delivery, post processing and blood Tuboplasty.In such application scenario, there is provided a kind of that ischemic events are subjected to for synergistically alleviating Mammal in reperfusion injury method.The method will during post processing after generally including ischemic events Benefit agent is partly delivered to blood vessel.The cause of ischemic events can be mammal various different vascular systems or Obstruction in microvasculature.For example, specific vascular system can include vascular system, the vascular of dorsal column system of coronary system The vascular system of system, the vascular system of peripheral-system or brain system.After the method for example can be used for alleviating shock Coronary artery lesions, the spinal column after thromboembolism or peripheral damage after cerebral lesion, heart attack, or other include blood supply insufficiency With anoxia in interior disease.
As shown in Figure 1A, show one embodiment of post-processing approach.The foley's tube dress below implemented and describe Put and be incorporated in injury near-end or the position near injury by blood vessel.Sacculus temporarily expansion is with by by blood vessel Blood stops perfusion a certain amount of time, subsequently temporarily shrinks a certain amount of time to allow blood to pass through one section of blood vessel Reperfu- sion Time.For example, post processing operative procedure can be implemented before support is beaten to blood vessel, for example as shown in Figure 1A.As in Figure 1B Shown, post processing can be performed before support is beaten and after beating support.In the case where post processing is performed after support is beaten, Sacculus is preferably expanded and is shunk in mount proximal end, even if sacculus in the tube chamber of support can sequentially expand and shrink.For Schematic purpose, post-processing approach also the United States Patent (USP) of Vinten-Johansen disclose No.2004/0255956 and Described in 2007/0160645, the content disclosed by these patents is by reference to being incorporated herein for all purposes.
Mechanical type post processing is in Reperfu- sion there is provided one or more benefit agent being delivered to ischemic blood vessels and is passed It is sent to the tissue or organ in ischemia downstream(Such as cardiac muscle)Unique opportunity.Benefit agent can be in expansion(Blocking)Or shrink (Do not block)Or blood vessel is directly delivered to during the post processing circulation of the two.So, if Jing intravenous administrations, beneficial system Agent can be with higher than the administration of possible concentration.In addition, in the case of no temporary occlusion, having the benefit agent of concentration in Hou Chu Time of staying when delivering during reason in the blood vessel is more than the time of staying when being delivered by traditional coronary catheter.
In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 18, post processing operative procedure can include the sacculus of circulation in 30 seconds for several times Expansion and contraction, so as to realizing the blood flow of circulation in alternate 30 seconds for several times and not flowing.In addition, post-processing approach and device Benefit agent is delivered during not flow circuit can be included in partly, as shown in the figure.In some embodiments it is possible to for one Secondary or multiple not flow circuit partly applies benefit agent.As shown in Figure 18, one embodiment of the method includes, is lacking Benefit agent is delivered partly during blocking for several times or not each period of flow circuit after blood.However, it is possible in Hou Chu Benefit agent is delivered during both the expansion stage and contraction phase of reason.In this aspect, the benefit agent of delivering will be in expansion It is detained during circulation and flows during circulation is shunk.Local delivery of the benefit agent during post processing is synergistically alleviated again Perfusion injury.
Here is it will be appreciated that various benefit agents can partly be delivered during post processing, scarce so as to synergistically alleviate Reperfusion injury after blood in mammal.It has been found that local delivery of the benefit agent during post processing is significantly Increased absorption of the benefit agent in mammalian tissues.Recognize in order that in the expansion stage of post processing operative procedure, estimating The post processing tissue concentration for going out is C'=(A/V)*K'*Co*Exp-(k+k')*t';0<t<T'=Bulking Times.In the contraction phase, The post processing tissue concentration for estimating is considered as C "=(A/V)*K'*C'*Exp-(k'/R)*t"-(A/V)C'*Exp-(k'/ R)*(t-x/V).On the contrary, operation is considered as C=in the conventional arteria coronaria of no post processing(A/V)*K'C'*Exp-(k'*x/V/ R)f(t-x/V).Therefore, because the post processing of expansion-contraction is circulated, the benefit agent concentration of tissue is bigger.
" benefit agent " as used herein includes any preparation for promoting health, recover or diagnose.For example, benefit agent Can be medicine, protein or contrast agent.Suitable benefit agent include calpain inhibitor, endothelin receptor antagonists, PH stabilizers, chymase inhibitor, oxygen and oxygen mixture, antithrombotic agents, protein, including the carrier of angiogenesis factor Or cell and biomaterial.The other examples of benefit agent include nitroglycerine, epinephrine, lignocaine, heparin, Hirudin and ReoProTM.However, as recognized in the art, other medicines or benefit agent can be adopted.
The non-limiting example of calpain inhibitor include ABT-099, A-965431, A705253, A-705239 or Racemate and its mixture.WO98/25899, WO98/25883, WO9954305, WO99/54310, WO99/61423, WO00/78933, WO2008/080969, WO2009/083581, U.S. Publication No.2006/0205671 and 2008/0097385 In disclose the other examples of calpain inhibitor, content of these patents disclosed by each is by reference to being incorporated herein.
