Description

A kind of ablation catheter with flexible distal
Technical field
The present invention relates to ablation catheter field, more particularly to a kind of ablation catheter and packet with high-precision pressure detection Include the dependency structure of this ablation catheter.
Background technology
Arrhythmia cordis is common one of the heart disease in the world, and clinically application catheter progress radio-frequency ablation procedure is answered extensively For treating such disease, when radio-frequency ablation procedure carries out, RF energy passes through conduit to electrode and the portion of electrode contact Position and surrounding myocardium tissue are to melt.
It is only melted under the conditions of the contact of the electrode of distal end of catheter and cardiac muscular tissue is suitable by clinic confirmation It can be only achieved preferable therapeutic effect.It is to insert the catheter into heart, and keep conduit remote specifically, when ablation catheter is treated End contacted with wall of the heart, in the process it is generally important that make the distal end of conduit with suitably contact with pressure wall of the heart with And determine correctly recline direction and position, otherwise, excessive pressure or the incorrect position that reclines may be caused to heart group Worthless damage, or even heart wall perforation are knitted, while the size of contact is also the same most important to being accurately positioned for conduit.
In the prior art, there are many modes for measuring this contact, is wherein one in distal end of catheter setting strain gauge Kind mode.
However in this strain gauge mode of the prior art is implemented, elastomer(The head end electrode of conduit passes through elastomer On tube body, after head end electrode contacts tissue, further press tissue under force, and elastomer exists It is then bent during this)The bad control of elasticity modulus, if very big, the deformation of elastomer is relatively difficult, becomes Shape amount is too small, so that the numerical value that is reflected of strain gauge is too small or missing, keeps the detection result of pressure bad, answers simultaneously Becoming the measured numerical value of meter can also cooperate with rear alignment device, the position of measurement conduit head end and bending direction and angle Degree can also have an impact being accurately positioned for conduit if the numerical value that is reflected of strain gauge is too small or missing;
But on the contrary, if the elasticity modulus of elastomer is very small, the deformation of elastomer is opposite to be easier to, and quantitative change is deformed Big, the numerical value that strain gauge is reflected is sufficiently large apparent enough, and the detection result of pressure is fine, but is asked there are one serious Topic is exactly such elastomer too " soft ", so that too flexible and when being unable to reach ablation the best shape to organizational stress State is inadequate with the pressure that reclines of tissue.
So in the prior art, there are many scheme when each producer uses strain gauge dynamometry, having using complete elastomer Then structure is arranged multiple strain gauges to measure on elastomer, such as the CN102160909B patents of Johnson & Johnson, equally deposits In our above-mentioned problems;
Secondly, also have using incomplete elastomer structure(Such as engraved structure), such as minimally invasive to increase the elasticity of elastomer CN201610651602 patents, it still can have the above problem, although the deformation quantity bigger of elastomer, for single Strain gauge measurement is more helpful, but there are one lower limits always for the reduction of elastomeric resilient modulus, cannot occur above-mentioned too " soft " The problem of, then opposite, for the measurement effect of strain gauge also there are one the upper limit, current this mode still can have strain gauge The numerical value reflected is too small or missing and conduit are accurately positioned influential situation, meanwhile, this structure is in reality After border is in use, be bent certain number, it is also easy to produce fatigue, the measurement of strain gauge at that time can be very inaccurate, influences to measure effect Fruit.
Invention content
It is an object of the invention to overcoming the above-mentioned deficiency in the presence of the prior art, provide a kind of with flexible distal Ablation catheter, and include the dependency structure of this ablation catheter.
In order to achieve the above-mentioned object of the invention, the present invention provides following technical schemes:
The distal end of a kind of ablation catheter with flexible distal, the ablation catheter includes elastomer and pressure sensor, the bullet Property body be hollow out tubular structure, the elastomer includes A sections and B sections, and the hollow out that end extends to B sections is provided in the A sections Structure(Increase elasticity), several hollow-out parts are formed along B sections of edge portions in engraved structure, and the bore of the hollow-out parts is more than hollow out Other parts in structure, form bar segment between adjacent hollow-out parts, and the bar segment is more than edge along the length of elastomer axial direction Length in elastomer circumferential direction, the pressure sensor are arranged on the bar segment, and bar segment is the friendship for forming A sections and B sections Connect region;
As described in the background art, in the prior art, or elastomer elasticity modulus is too big, in the case of by pressure, deflection is too It is small, so that pressure sensor(Strain gauge described in background technology is one of which)The numerical value reflected it is too small or Missing, keeps the detection result of pressure bad, while the numerical value measured by strain gauge can also cooperate with rear alignment device, surveys The position of amount conduit head end and bending direction and angle, if the numerical value that pressure sensor is reflected is too small or scarce It loses, then can also have an impact to being accurately positioned for conduit;
Or the elasticity modulus of elastomer is too small, then deformation is opposite is easier to, and deflection becomes larger, and pressure sensor is reflected Numerical value out is sufficiently large apparent enough, and the detection result of pressure is fine, but is exactly such elasticity there are one serious problem Body too " soft ", so that too flexible and when being unable to reach ablation the optimum state to organizational stress, the pressure that reclines with tissue Power is inadequate;
And we use the structure of A sections and B sections, an A sections and B sections only names to two-stage structure on elastomer here, Elastomer includes at least this two sections, and two sections of restriction simply facilitates differentiation, is not necessarily two-stage structure and is separately molded, such as A Section and B sections of integrated moldings, we can also limit the section of elastomer different location with " A sections " and " B sections ";
Since under existing background, it is suitable that we can not find a deflection, make the use of elastomer while meeting certain So that pressure sensor is measured the pressure of tissue and certain deformability more acurrate, then we just change a thinking, Elastomer clearly divides into A sections and B sections, and in A sections setting increase elasticity and end extend to B sections of engraved structure, institute Pressure sensor is stated then to be arranged in A sections and B sections of handover region(A sections are the knot of a ring-type or annular configuration with B sections of junctions Structure, handover region are then limited to this junction and respectively extend the region that one section of centre is sandwiched to both sides), then, elastomer On(At least A sections and B sections of parts)In, it must be in handover region, due to A sections of elastomer that affected by force, which deforms maximum region, Elasticity by engraved structure amplification and engraved structure be connected to B sections, then the deformation of handover region then compared with the existing technology in Complete elastomer structure deformation be an amplification performance, meanwhile, and be unlikely to whole and all engraved structure be set and is led Cause elasticity is too big the problems in background technology occur(With the inadequate and On The Yielding that reclines of tissue), one can be reached preferably Balance, keeps entire elastomer in use, and elasticity is suitable, can reach the optimum state to organizational stress when ablation, with group The pressure that reclines knitted is enough big, and the deflection of handover region reaches big, the numerical value bigger that pressure sensor is reflected, pressure The more preferable while measured numerical value of detection result can also cooperate with rear alignment device, measure the position of conduit head end And bending direction and angle, the numerical value bigger that pressure sensor is reflected are then also more preferable to being accurately positioned for conduit.
Meanwhile in the plan of establishment of the hollow-out parts, bore is more than other parts in engraved structure, is compared to hollow out The elongated groove body that helically smoothly extends upwards in slot, hollow-out parts are a bigger spaces, can make friendship in this way It is longer to connect length of the surface area smaller in region simultaneously in elastomer axial direction, i.e., length of the described bar segment along elastomer axial direction More than the length in elastomer circumferential direction, bar segment is the handover region for forming A sections and B sections, makes the deformation effect of elastomer more It is good, while in the deformability for further increasing A sections and handover region intersegmental B, at the same handover region to the feedback of stress more It concentrates(Bonding agent, which fills up hollow-out parts 15, when being also possible to prevent bonding pressure sensor influences the performance of elastomer entirety), make pressure The dynamometry effect of sensor is more preferable, meanwhile, make two be bent in elastomer axial direction section of elastomer are opposite to bend, bends trace Along the circumferentially extending of elastomer, the feedback of stress is more concentrated when bar segment being made to bend elastomer, while coordinating pressure sensor, Keep measured value more acurrate.
As the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the engraved structure includes several settings independently of each other and hollow-out part is continuous Hollow slots, the continuous engraved structure of hollow-out part can make opposite B sections of the deformation bigger of A sections by the elastomer of pressure, together When handover region deflection also bigger, and continuous hollow slots that several are arranged independently of each other are necessarily arranged side by side, Such structure is ensureing that A section elastomeric resilients are better and there are one can making between A sections of adjacent engraved structures The state mutually restricted, being unlikely to bending excessively causes the pressure that reclines to tissue inadequate.
As the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the single hollow slots arrange that helical structure can make A sections in the shape of a spiral Elasticity advanced optimizes, under the premise of " several are arranged independently of each other and the continuous hollow slots of hollow-out part ", helical structure The handover region deflection bigger of A sections and B sections can preferably be made, while " A sections of adjacent engraved structures can be better achieved Between there are one the state that mutually restricts, be unlikely to that bending is excessive to cause the pressure that reclines to tissue inadequate "(For example it continuously engraves The setting path of empty slot is not an arc-shaped seamlessly transitted, after such structure is arranged side by side, in helical structure, mutually Confinement effect become apparent from, often A sections bend to a degree after, the difficulty of bending can become larger, and ensure to the pressure that reclines of tissue Power).
As the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the elastomer is the tubular structure or circular tube structure of hollow out, all institutes The shape for stating hollow slots is identical, keeps A sections of deformation more controllable, if it is in the case where hollow slots are helical structure, then A The distortional elastomer effect of section is more preferable, while the stress distribution of handover region is also evenly, is more convenient to measure.
