[action effect]
(A. basic acts)
In this conduit system 6, when inspection, the treatment of arrhythmia etc., the axle 11 of ablation catheter 1 is inserted in the body of patient 9 by blood vessel.Now, according to the operation of operator to operating portion 12, the shape near the front end P1 being inserted in the axle 11 in body is partial to.Specifically, if rotate swivel plate 122 by the finger of operator along direction of rotation d1 as denoted by the arrows in fig. 2, the not shown behaviour's position so in axle 11 is pulled to base end side.Consequently: bend along direction d2 as illustrated by the arrows in fig. 1 near the front end P1 of axle 11.
At this, when the inspection such as arrhythmia etc., the electrode (ring electrode 111a, 111b, 111c, front termination electrode 112) of the ablation catheter 1 be inserted in body is used to measure heart potential.The information (test waveform signal Sw) of this heart potential is supplied to electrocardiogram display device 2 from ablation catheter 1 via repeater 5.Then, this test waveform signal Sw (electrocardiographic wave) is shown by electrocardiogram display device 2, carries out the inspection relevant with the presence or absence of the arrhythmia of check point etc. and degree thereof.
In addition, when the treatment of arrhythmia etc., supply the electric power (output power Pout) when melting by supply unit 3 (power supply unit 32) to ablation catheter 1 and to pole plate 4.Therefore, be installed on patient 9 body surface carry out high frequency energising between pole plate 4 and the above-mentioned electrode being inserted in the ablation catheter 1 in patient 9 body.By the energising of such high frequency, the position (disposal part) of the treatment target of patient 9 is optionally melted, and carries out the transdermal therapeutic of arrhythmia etc. thus.
(effect of B. path interruption switch 52)
Next, to the effect of the path interruption switch 52 of present embodiment, compare with comparative example (comparative example 1,2), be described in detail on one side.
(comparative example 1)
Fig. 5 is the block diagram that the entirety of the conduit system (conduit system 106) schematically shown involved by comparative example 1 is formed.The conduit system 106 of this comparative example 1 with repeater 105 is set in the conduit system 6 of present embodiment to replace the system of repeater 5 corresponding.
In this repeater 105, different from repeater 5, the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St does not arrange path interruption switch 52.Therefore, in this comparative example 1, in repeater 105, the noise signal Sn (electromagnetic wave etc.) that circuit (amplifier 51 etc.) occurs has the risk being overlapped in test waveform signal Sw.Specifically, first, because the distribution of temperature measurement signal St (such as aforementioned hot galvanic couple 113) is connected to the circuit in repeater 105, the noise signal Sn so from this circuit must be overlapped in temperature measurement signal St.In addition, near the distribution of this temperature measurement signal St, be configured with the distribution of test waveform signal Sw.In other words, in such as aforesaid distribution 60b, each bar distribution parallel deployment of these temperature measurement signals St and test waveform signal Sw.Therefore, in repeater 105, for this test waveform signal Sw, also will have by the temperature measurement signal St risk (dotted arrow with reference in Fig. 5) overlapping with noise signal Sn.
Specifically, as the test waveform signal Sw101 such as shown in Fig. 6, in this comparative example 1, cause original test waveform (electrocardiographic wave) overlapping with the noise signal Sn of high frequency.If noise signal Sn is overlapped in test waveform by this way, so just there is the risk causing being difficult to obtain (display) good test waveform, measuring accuracy reduces in electrocardiogram display device 2.
Further, because such as following reason, the distribution of near the distribution of the temperature measurement signal St configuration testing waveshape signal Sw of having to.That is, because the diameter of the axle 11 of ablation catheter 1 is little as far as possible, so be difficult to make physically and electrically to isolate (implementing noise countermeasure) between the distribution of temperature measurement signal St (thermocouple 113 etc.) and the distribution of test waveform signal Sw.
(comparative example 2)
Here, in order to remove overlapping noise signal Sn like this, such as, the method (as comparative example 2) that wave filter (such as, LPF (Low Pass Filter)) is set on the path of test waveform signal Sw can be considered.
But, as the test waveform signal Sw102 such as shown in Fig. 7, by the test waveform after wave filter, the rising of waveform and the inclination of decline slow down (with reference to the dotted arrow in Fig. 7, peak value reduces and waveform is mild), cause not easily observation test waveform.Therefore, the requirement that doctor wants to observe original test waveform (loyal reflection test waveform originally) can not just be met.Add, as shown in the symbol P102 in Fig. 7, by filter process, also have the risk causing the small-signal disappearance be present in test waveform originally.For all these reasons, even if be suitable for the method for this comparative example 2, result also has the risk causing measuring accuracy to decline.
(present embodiment)
To this, in the conduit system 6 of present embodiment, as shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 3, Fig. 4, on the outgoing route of the temperature measurement signal St exported from the temperature sensor (thermocouple 113 etc.) of ablation catheter 1, be provided with the path interruption switch 52 that can interdict this outgoing route St.
Specifically, as shown in Figure 8 A, when this path interruption switch 52 is set to on-state, the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St becomes conducting state, and this temperature measurement signal St is provided to amplifier 51.That is, become and carry out thermometric state, the temperature measurement signal St ' after signal amplifies is provided to the control part 35 in supply unit 3.
On the other hand, as shown in Figure 8 B, when path interruption switch 52 is set to off-state, the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St becomes blocking state, and temperature measurement signal St can not be supplied to amplifier 51.That is, become and stop thermometric state, the temperature measurement signal St ' after signal amplifies can not be supplied to the control part 35 in supply unit 3.
By arranging this path interruption switch 52, from the noise signal Sn of circuit (amplifier 51 etc.) of outgoing route being connected to temperature measurement signal St, can be interdicted on the outgoing route of this temperature measurement signal St.That is, the occurring source of noise signal Sn (foregoing circuit) can be cut off from the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St.
Consequently: as the test waveform signal Sw such as shown in Fig. 9, different from above-mentioned comparative example 1 in the present embodiment, in repeater 5, can reduce or avoid noise signal Sn to be overlapped in the risk of test waveform signal Sw by the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St.In addition, different from above-mentioned comparative example 2, do not cause test waveform to flatten slow yet and not easily observe, risk that small-signal disappears.
As mentioned above in the present embodiment, because on the outgoing route of the temperature measurement signal St exported from the temperature sensor of ablation catheter 1, be provided with the path interruption switch 52 that can interdict this outgoing route, so can reduce or avoid noise signal Sn to be overlapped in the risk of test waveform signal Sw.Therefore, it is possible to obtain good test waveform, measuring accuracy can be improved.
In addition, because be provided with this path interruption switch 52 in repeater 5, so the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St can be interdicted in repeater 5.Thus, the occurring source of noise signal Sn is defined to from ablation catheter 1 to the path of repeater 5.Therefore, it is possible to it is overlapping to make noise signal Sn more be not easy test waveform signal Sw.
Furtherly, because be provided with the amplifier 51 amplifying temperature measurement signal St in repeater 5, and being configured with path interruption switch 52 than on the outgoing route of this amplifier 51 closer to ablation catheter 1 side, so in repeater 5, just can relatively on hand side blocking outgoing route.Therefore, the antenna effect of the outgoing route of this temperature measurement signal St diminishes, and also can suppress the generation of noise signal.
Add, can according to the on-state of operating and setting path interruption switch 52 of the operator of repeater 5 or the structure of off-state because have employed, so such as can according to the situation etc. checked, treat, on the opportunity that operator wishes, carry out the blocking of the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St.Therefore, convenience when such inspection, treatment can be improved.
Below, other embodiments of the present invention (the 2nd ~ 4th embodiment) are described.Further, give identical symbol to the parts identical with the element in the 1st embodiment etc., and suitably the description thereof will be omitted.
< the 2nd embodiment >
[structure]
Figure 10 is the block diagram of the overall configuration example of the conduit system (conduit system 6A) schematically shown involved by the 2nd embodiment.The conduit system 6A of present embodiment with repeater 5A is set in the conduit system 6 of the 1st embodiment to replace the system of repeater 5 corresponding, other formations are substantially identical.
Figure 11 is the detailed configuration example of this repeater 5A and the schematic diagram of a part for ablation catheter 1.
As shown in Figures 10 and 11, repeater 5A adopts following structure: in repeater 5, make the control signal CTL1 supplied by the control part 35 in supply unit 3 be input to path interruption switch 52.In other words, become following structure: relative to the state of operating and setting (manually setting) the path interruption switch 52 according to operator in repeater 5, and according to the state of the control signal CTL1 supplied by control part 35 automatic controllability path blocking switch 52 in repeater 5A.
Specifically, the control part 35 of present embodiment links with the operating state (melting with or without implementation) of supply unit 3 as detailed below, exports the control signal CTL1 (dotted arrow with reference in Figure 11) being used for this path interruption switch 52 being automatically made on-state or off-state.
[action effect]
Figure 12 is the flow chart of the action case representing conduit system 6A.In this conduit system 6A, first, setting electric power Ps when being melted input part 31 input by the operator of supply unit 3 and the value of target temperature Tt, so these numerical value are provided to control part 35, carry out the setting (step S101) of numerical value thus.
Then, control part 35 will judge whether operator sets to input part 31 beginning (step S102) that (instruction) melts (high frequency output).In other words, have input index signal for making high frequency output (supply of output power Pout) start by judging whether by input part 31 pairs of control parts 35.
(when melting)
Now, if indicate the beginning (step S102:Y) of high frequency output, output control signal CTL1 is set to on-state (step S103) to make path interruption switch 52 by control part 35.
Thus, as shown in FIG. 13A, path interruption switch 52 becomes on-state (step S104).Therefore, the outgoing route of temperature measurement signal St becomes conducting state, and this temperature measurement signal St is supplied to amplifier 51.That is, temperature survey is guaranteed and becomes thermometric state of carrying out, and the temperature measurement signal St ' after signal amplifies is supplied to the control part 35 in supply unit 3.Like this, when the supply of the output power Pout being necessary measuring tempeature stops (when melting), path interruption switch 52 is set to on-state, thus temperature survey is guaranteed.
