Description

Closure device for tissue defects
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medical instruments, and particularly relates to a tissue defect closing instrument, in particular to an intracardiac tissue defect closing instrument.
Background
Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) is the most common congenital heart abnormality in adults, and 1 in about 4 of the normal population is detected. 150 million patients with congenital heart disease exist in China, the morbidity of the congenital heart disease is 6.78% every year, up to 10-15 thousands of infants suffering from the congenital heart disease are born every year, and the patent number of a single foramen ovale accounts for about 10% of the congenital heart disease.
Patent foramen ovale, a common problem, can lead to potentially serious complications. Many studies in recent years have shown that patent foramen ovale is closely related to stroke patients of unknown origin. For patent with patent foramen ovale, the remaining slit-like abnormal channels of the primary compartment and the secondary compartment are similar to a functional valve, and because the blood pressure in the left atrium of the heart is higher than that in the right atrium, the blood can flow from the left atrium to the right atrium through the patent foramen ovale, and the long-term left atrium flows to the right atrium, so that the blood volume in the right atrium is increased, the right ventricle is enlarged, and the lung circulation blood volume is increased. When right atrial pressure is higher than left atrial pressure, the weak primary septum on the left side is pushed open, a right-to-left shunting of blood occurs, and in addition, the following emboli may enter the left cardiac system causing corresponding clinical symptoms: the risk of recurrence for patients with patent foramen ovale, who have had a thrombotic event, is still high with respect to thrombosis of the deep veins of the lower extremities or pelvic veins, air emboli caused by caisson's disease or decompression sickness, fatty emboli formed after surgery or trauma. Meanwhile, the long-term existence of patent foramen ovale is also found to cause symptoms such as migraine, cerebral ischemia, cerebral apoplexy, decompression sickness, decubitus respiratory upright hypoxia syndrome, altitude sickness and the like.
The traditional treatment mode of the patent foramen ovale is surgical operation. The treatment method of surgery is that the patient needs to be opened by surgery. The main drawbacks of surgery are: extracorporeal circulation is needed during the operation, which may cause complications and death; the surgical operation has large wound and scars are left after the operation; the surgery is expensive. With the development and improvement of interventional therapy technology, methods for treating PFO through minimally invasive interventional techniques are now well established. The minimally invasive interventional therapy has the advantages of no operation, small wound, less complication, quick recovery, good effect, wide range of indications, relatively low operation cost and the like.
The mainstream product in clinical at present is traditional two dishes foramen ovale plugging device, and traditional two dishes foramen ovale plugging device is two dishes of structure, has bilateral symmetry's left side dish and right side dish and connects the short waist portion between left side dish and right side dish, and the department has outstanding collection end in the middle of the left side of left side dish, and the department has outstanding collection end in the middle of the right side of right side dish. However, the above-mentioned conventional double-disc foramen ovale occluder has more or less problems in clinical use. If the oval hole is close to the superior and inferior vena cava or the main pulmonary artery, the edge of the occluder can abrade the blood vessel, resulting in failure of occlusion; if the occluder with the smaller specifications of the left disc surface and the right disc surface is selected, the anchoring effect of the occluder is poor, so that the occlusion stability is poor, in addition, the oval fossa is a puncture point for atrial septal puncture in the heart interventional operation, and for patients with potential patent foramen ovale for interventional heart treatment, after the traditional occluder is used for occluding the patent foramen ovale, the situation that secondary interventional treatment cannot be performed due to difficulty in atrial septal puncture and a higher risk treatment method is changed into can be met.
Patent CN112244902A provides a patent foramen ovale patent occluder with adjustable disc surface, belonging to the technical field of medical apparatus and instruments; the plugging device with the net structure comprises an upper disc surface, a waist part, a lower disc surface, an adjusting rod and an adjusting wire; a waist part is arranged between the upper disc surface and the lower disc surface; the upper disc surface is provided with a middle section with the same central shaft and an edge section with an adjustable cross section vertical to the central shaft; the upper disc surface of the plugging device is designed by splicing a middle section and an edge section, an adjusting wire is arranged between the edge section and an adjusting rod, and the size of the upper disc surface can be freely adjusted by rotating the adjusting rod and changing the length of the adjusting wire. The occluder with the adjustable disc surface reduces the probability of replacing the occluder during operation; the fitting degree of the plugging device is improved; the middle section is adopted on the disc surface of the occluder, the edge section is designed in two sections, and the edge section is softer than the middle section, so that the disc surface size adjustment of the occluder is facilitated, and the tissue abrasion attached to the disc surface is reduced. However, the existing way to treat the above diseases is to use an occlusion operation to place an occluder made of a metallic material mostly or entirely in the body. The occluder is usually large in size, and due to the fact that the structure in the heart is complex, the occluder is placed in the heart and is not easily accepted by many patients, risks of complications can be increased in the near term and the long term, and repeated release and recovery are difficult to achieve.
Patent CN211934140U provides an interventional defect suturing device, which comprises a sheath tube, a suturing component arranged at the distal end of the sheath tube, and at least two puncture needles arranged in the sheath tube in a penetrating manner. The suture assembly comprises a main body piece fixedly connected with the sheath tube and a movable piece rotatably connected with the main body piece, and the two sides of the rotating axis line of the movable piece are respectively provided with at least one connecting cylinder connected with a suture. After the movable piece rotates in place relative to the main body piece, one connecting cylinder is correspondingly located on a moving path of the far end of the puncture needle, at least two puncture needles are respectively butted with one corresponding connecting cylinder after puncturing tissues around defects, when the puncture needle moves towards the near end, the connecting cylinder and a suture correspondingly connected with the puncture needle are driven to move towards the near end, so that the suture is implanted into the tissues around the defects, at least two suture points are formed through one-time intervention, the intervention times of instruments are reduced, and the operation time is shortened.
Patent ZL 201822027543.9 provides a patent foramen ovale suturing device, relates to the technical field of medical suturing, and solves the technical problems that the existing patent foramen ovale surgery is difficult to position and suture, and complications are easy to occur when the existing patent foramen ovale suturing device is implanted; the device comprises a pushing part and an extender connected with the pushing part, wherein the head part of the extender is provided with a metal suture and two clamping arms, two ends of the metal suture are respectively pulled through fixing grooves on the clamping arms, the pushing part is provided with a push rod for pushing the push rod, and the two clamping arms can pull the metal suture to extend out and retract; the two puncture needles can extend into the guide grooves, the guide grooves penetrate through the inside of the extender to push the traction needles, and the two puncture needles can pull the two ends of the metal suture and penetrate through the diaphragms to fix the two diaphragms; the suture device is used for realizing minimally invasive closure of patent foramen ovale or atrial septal defect, ensures suture at an accurate position, reduces complications caused by implantation of the occlusion device, but because the suture is hooked and pulled back by pushing the hook-shaped needle of the traction needle after the clamping arm is unfolded in the heart, the suture device preferentially adopts a metal suture for facilitating radiography observation during actual operation, and the suture device mainly has the following defects: 1. the metal suture is sharp, and the metal suture is used as a main closed material, so that the dragging force generated by the metal suture when the metal suture is used for dragging the tissue cannot be dispersed, the suture part can be torn and damaged, even a hole structure is formed, and extra defects are artificially formed; 2. the positioning and needle withdrawing operations are complex, very high precision is required, and the curve for the doctor to learn is long; 3. defect closure is achieved by entanglement of the metal suture, but without the design of a metal suture release mechanism, there may be a risk of the metal suture breaking or the release location being ambiguous, thereby causing closure failure.
Therefore, how to solve the problem of patent foramen ovale and reduce postoperative complications in the operation process, avoiding some disadvantages brought by the traditional occluder interventional therapy operation, realizing simple and rapid closure and release, and simultaneously keeping the possibility of developing secondary interventional operation at the future interatrial puncture point or area becomes the problem to be solved urgently at present.
