Detailed Description
The principles and features of this invention are described in connection with the drawings and the detailed description of the invention, which are set forth below as examples to illustrate the invention and not to limit the scope of the invention.
In the description of the present invention, if terms indicating orientation such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., are used, they indicate orientation or positional relationship based on that shown in the drawings, and are only for convenience of description and simplicity of description, but do not indicate or imply that the device or element being referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed in a particular orientation, and be operated, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1 to 12, the present invention provides a stent for repairing a mitral valve, comprising a frame and a membrane module, wherein the frame comprises an atrium retaining member and a membrane fixing member, the membrane fixing member comprises a V-shaped supporting section 1 and a first sleeve 2 and a second sleeve 3 symmetrically connected to the left and right ends of the V-shaped supporting section 1, the membrane module is fixed in the membrane fixing member, the atrium retaining member comprises a first retaining curve section 4 positioned above the front side and a second retaining curve section 5 positioned above the rear side, the first retaining curve section 4 and the second retaining curve section 5 are respectively connected with the upper ends of the first sleeve 2 and the second sleeve 3 after being crossed twice on the left and right sides and forming a ring-shaped portion, the frame further comprises an upper flipping member 6 positioned on the front side and/or the rear side of the membrane fixing member, the lower end of the upper flipping member 6 is connected with the tip of the lower portion of the V-shaped supporting section 1, the upper end of the upper turning and supporting piece 6 is bent and extended towards the upper part of the front side or the upper part of the back side and then is supported against the lower surface of the mitral valve annulus.
It should be noted that, the ring-shaped part formed by the first limit curve section and the second limit curve section by twice crossing at the left side and the right side respectively is a saddle-shaped ring-shaped arc, the ring-shaped part is positioned in the left atrium and attached to the upper surface of the valve ring, and after the stent is installed in place, the ring-shaped part and the upper turning and abutting part clamp the valve ring together, so that the stent can be positioned at the mitral valve; the annular atrium limiter formed by the first limiting curve segment and the second limiting curve segment has upward curvature and is adapted to the saddle shape of the mitral valve annulus. The upper turning and supporting piece does not contact the native valve leaflets during working, and the native valve leaflets cannot be damaged; the valve support has smaller jumping amplitude along with blood flow and native valve leaflets, and is more stable in anchoring.
In addition, the first limit curve segment and the second limit curve segment are crossed twice on the left side and the right side respectively, one crossing point is positioned at the upper part and is close to the joint of an anterior valve and a posterior valve of the mitral valve annulus after being implanted, and the other crossing point is positioned between the arc-shaped supporting segment of the membrane component and the top of the first sleeve or the second sleeve. The scissor-like intersection plane is at an angle of 10 to 30 degrees to the loop plane of the atrial stop. The first and second curve segments are not fixed at the intersection point, so that when the heart contracts, the first and second curve segments are stressed in the front-back direction, and the small displacement which can generate dislocation at the intersection point is released as pretightening force during diastole, so that the first and second limit curve segments are ensured to be attached to the valve annulus wall, and stable dynamic support is provided for preventing the support from falling off the ventricle and preventing the membrane assembly from deflecting.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the upper flipping abutment 6 is formed by bending a memory alloy wire, and as shown in fig. 1, the upper flipping abutment 6 is preferably fishtail-shaped and has a wider upper end and a narrower lower end.
It will be appreciated that the shape of the upper retaining member is not limited to a fishtail shape, as long as the upper end can be effectively retained against the lower surface of the annulus without causing significant damage to the annulus.
It should be noted that the design of the upper-turning-over holding piece enables the valve stent main body to beat with the cardiac blood flow and the native valve leaflet in a small amplitude, so that the valve stent main body is not easy to generate tissue creeping and covering, and can better adapt to the structure that the native valve leaflet is not closed completely. Because the motion amplitude of the curved section of the upper turning and abutting piece is small, in order to prevent the tissues from climbing and covering, the surface of the corresponding memory alloy wire can be covered with a PTFE film. The upper turning and supporting piece is located behind the free edge of the native valve leaflet during working, the top of the upper turning and supporting piece is in a fishtail shape, and stable support can be formed at the root of the valve leaflet. The width dimension of the upper turning and supporting piece is gradually reduced from the top to the root, and the design can enable the upper turning and supporting piece to avoid the chordae tendineae at the tips of the native valve leaflets and avoid damage to the chordae tendineae. The upper turning and supporting piece extends upwards in an arc shape from the bottom of the membrane assembly, and compared with the original lower limiting piece, the upper turning and supporting piece has the advantages that the upper turning and supporting piece is not contacted with the valve leaflets in the opening and closing process of the native valve leaflets, and the native valve leaflets cannot be damaged.
In one embodiment of the invention, the upper flip resisting member 6 is formed with a locking wire limiting ring 7 around the middle portion of the upper flip resisting member at both sides and at the lower end.
It should be noted that the locking wire passes through the locking wire limiting ring, so the position of the locking wire is effectively limited, and the locking wire pulled by the locking wire can not slide along the V-shaped supporting section or the upturning clamping piece, so that the acting point of the locking wire on the bracket is relatively fixed. The lower end lock line limiting ring can be extended from the lower end of the upper overturning and supporting piece and also can be extended from the lower end of the V-shaped supporting section. The middle part of the upper turning abutting piece is provided with a locking wire limiting ring, and when the upper turning abutting piece is compressed and loaded to a conveying system, the locking wire and the middle curve section of the upper turning abutting piece cannot generate relative displacement, so that the consistency of the loaded state of the upper turning abutting piece is maintained. The radian design of the bottom of the upper overturning and supporting piece is convenient for the upper overturning and supporting piece to overturn downwards, so that the upper overturning and supporting piece is compressed and loaded into the sheath tube of the conveying system.
In one embodiment of the invention, the lower end of the upper turning abutment 6 is connected to the lower tip of the V-shaped support section 1 by a third bushing 8.
It should be noted that the third sleeve may be a multi-core tube or a single core tube, and is preferably a multi-core tube.
In one embodiment of the invention, the number of the upper flap abutment 6 is one and is located on the front or rear side of the film fastener.
In one embodiment of the invention, the number of upper flap fasteners 6 is two and symmetrically distributed on the front and back sides of the film fastener.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the membrane holder further comprises an arc-shaped supporting section 9, wherein the arc-shaped supporting section 9 is downward opened, and the left end and the right end of the opening correspond to and are fixedly connected with the upper ends of the first sleeve 2 and the second sleeve 3.
In one embodiment of the invention, the membrane module comprises a membrane 10 with closed upper and lower ends, and the left side, the right side and the bottom of the membrane 10 are sequentially connected with the first sleeve 2, the second sleeve 3 and the V-shaped support section 1.
It will be appreciated that the invention eliminates the attachment of a membrane made of implantable material to the atrial stop and that the top and bottom of the membrane are sealed by sutures, with no channels, and the membrane is in the form of a unitary piece that acts as a caulking. The shape of the single front membrane is the same as that of the single rear membrane, the front membrane and the rear membrane are firstly sewed into a sleeve shape by a sewing line and then are sewed and fixed with the membrane component supporting section. The closed membrane forms a wedge shape, conforming to the shape of the native leaflets when closed, filling the gap that is not fully closed. The membrane material can be elastic biocompatible material (such as biological pericardial tissue, PTFE, polyurethane, silicon rubber and the like), and when the membrane material is contacted with the native valve, the native valve can not be damaged.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the membrane 10 is formed by sewing a front membrane 10 and a back membrane 10 which are symmetrical to each other in a front-back direction along the periphery, as shown in fig. 5 and 11, and preferably, the thickness of the membrane 10 in the front-back direction is gradually increased from top to bottom, and the whole membrane is in a wedge shape.
In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 10, the first sleeve 2 and the second sleeve 3 are both multi-core tubes, the multi-core tubes have a plurality of fixing channels 11 extending in an axial direction and penetrating through the multi-core tubes, the V-shaped support section 1, the first limit curve section 4, the second limit curve section 5 and the upper turning and fastening member 6 are formed by bending and winding the same memory metal wire and then performing heat setting, and the memory metal wire passes through the plurality of fixing channels 11 of the first sleeve 2 and the second sleeve 3 during the winding process.
It should be noted that the first sleeve and the second sleeve are both five core pipes, and each of the first sleeve and the second sleeve is provided with five fixing channels which extend along the axial direction and are communicated with each other, and the five fixing channels are distributed in a trapezoidal shape. The first limiting curve section, the second limiting curve section, the arc-shaped supporting section, the V-shaped supporting section and the upper turning and supporting piece can be formed by weaving and heat setting the same memory alloy wire (nickel-titanium wire), the memory alloy wire sequentially penetrates through the respective five fixing channels of the first sleeve and the second sleeve in the weaving process, and then pressure is applied to the outer surface of the five-core tube through a pre-tightening device, so that the memory alloy wire is slightly deformed to achieve the purpose of clamping the alloy wire by reducing the aperture. Compared with the situation that a plurality of alloy wires simultaneously pass through one channel, each fixed channel can greatly enhance the effective friction force between the outer surface of each alloy wire and the inner surface of the channel of the connecting pipe through one alloy wire, can effectively prevent the alloy wires from being separated from the connecting pipe, and is favorable for the structural stability of the support.
In the invention, the atrium limit part has higher strength than the upper overturn resisting part by adopting different memory alloy wire diameters and heat setting treatment processes, and the position of the membrane component between the native valve leaflets after the valve stent is implanted is mainly determined by the atrium limit part and is suitable for central regurgitation because the upper overturn resisting part is not acted by the ventricular wall. Because the valve repair support is non-directional, the upward-turning resisting piece can be placed on the anterior leaflet or the posterior leaflet of the mitral valve according to the condition of a patient, and the strength of the atrium limiting piece is reduced.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements and the like that fall within the spirit and principle of the present invention are intended to be included therein.
