Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of medical instruments, in particular to a spline basket ablation catheter capable of being bent in two directions.
Background
Cardiac ablation has experienced a great deal of innovation and rapid development since its first implementation in 1969. Ablation was used primarily for the treatment of supraventricular tachycardia patients with accessory pathways and pre-excitation syndrome, and today ablation is also used for the treatment of atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation and ventricular arrhythmias.
The purpose of ablation is to destroy potentially arrhythmic tissue and form transmural and continuous permanent lesions. Percutaneous catheter ablation to achieve Pulmonary Vein (PV) isolation in atrial tissue using radio-frequency ablation (RFA) and cryoablation therapy has become a widely accepted procedure for treating Atrial Fibrillation (AF). Other energy forms of catheter ablation include microwaves, high intensity focused ultrasound, low intensity collimated ultrasound, lasers, cryogenic energy, and heated saline. Radio-frequency (RF) energy is currently the most commonly used energy source. RF creates lesions by heating tissue through impedance and then conducting heat to deeper tissue.
The foundation for atrial fibrillation therapy is the isolation of the pulmonary veins in the left atrium, and there are generally four pulmonary veins, namely the left superior pulmonary vein, the left inferior pulmonary vein, the right superior pulmonary vein, and the right inferior pulmonary vein. The normal value for the size of the left atrium is 45-55mm, and the four pulmonary veins are completely isolated in such a narrow space.
US patent 20170071665a1 discloses a bendable spinal basket catheter, a catheter adapted for mapping and/or ablation in the atrium having a basket electrode array with two or more position sensors with deflectable dilators. The catheter includes a catheter body, a basket electrode assembly at a distal end of the catheter body, and a control handle at a proximal end of the catheter body. The basket electrode assembly has a plurality of spines with electrodes and a dilator adapted to move longitudinally relative to the catheter body to expand and collapse the assembly by extending beyond a proximal portion of the control handle, which can be pushed or pulled by the control handle. The dilator is also adapted to flex in response to an actuator on the control handle that allows a user to control at least one pull wire extending through the catheter body and the dilator. However, like the above patent products, the therapy head can only be bent in a small degree, and cannot meet the bending requirement of complex blood vessel environment. In addition, the spinal basket catheter is mainly used for mapping but not ablation.
US patent US 9101734B 2 discloses a force sensing catheter for diagnosing or treating blood vessels found in the body or body space, the sensing catheter comprising a central strut which is thermally bonded, preferably along its longitudinal axis, to a thermoplastic tubular member contained therein. The tubular member preferably has three layers: inner layer, weaving layer and outer layer. One or more semiconductor or metal foil strain gauges are affixed to the center strut to provide a measurement of bending and torsional forces at the distal end of the catheter. This patent is through setting up the strainometer at the bracing piece and measuring and control crooked, and the structure is comparatively complicated.
European patent EP3915477a1 discloses an electrode device for diagnosing arrhythmias, wherein fig. 7 is an illustration of the middle part of the catheter shaft deflected approximately 360 °. The end effector has a first side and a second side. This allows the user to place the first side on the tissue surface with at least the intermediate portion (if not the distal portion of the catheter body) substantially perpendicular to the tissue surface, and actuate the control handle to deflect the intermediate deflection portion to various deflections or radii of curvature such that the second side is deflected toward the catheter body. Such positioning may allow for drag of the second side as the intermediate portion deflects, the cross-section of the end-effector comprising the loop members 1, 2, 3 across the tissue surface. The intermediate portion can be deflected by manipulating the pull wire. However, the patent only realizes the deflection of the middle part of the catheter and cannot quickly and accurately control the direction of the treatment head.
At present, the spline basket catheters for the pulsed electric field at home and abroad cannot be bent in a bidirectional and active mode, and the catheters are difficult to help to reach the pulmonary vein vestibules at different angles for treatment, so that the operation difficulty of doctors is increased, and the risk of the operation is increased. Therefore, how to provide a bendable spline basket ablation catheter with good controllability is suitable for ablation diagnosis and treatment of an annular vein orifice and also suitable for ablation diagnosis and treatment of a non-vein orifice; an ablation system which can be used for radio frequency ablation, pulsed electric field ablation and the like is a technical problem to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art at present.
