Description

Medical implantation wire and implantation type medical equipment
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of implantable medical equipment, in particular to a medical implantation lead and implantable medical equipment.
Background
The cardiac pacemaker is an electronic therapeutic instrument implanted in a human body, and can send electric pulses through a pulse generator and deliver therapeutic stimulation to the heart of a patient through conduction of a lead so as to excite and shrink the heart, thereby achieving the aim of treating cardiac dysfunction. As shown in fig. 1, a pulse generator 1 is schematically illustrated, the pulse generator 1 is provided with a housing 11 and a head 12, a switch control circuit is provided in the housing 11, the head 12 is connected with a connector 3, and the connector 3 is used as an electrical connection interface between the pulse generator 1 and the medical implant lead 2. The material of the connector 3 may be chosen to be biocompatible and to suitably conduct and transmit electrical signals from the pulse generator 1. In general, the medical implant lead 2 comprises a first electrical conductor 21, a second electrical conductor 22 (not shown in the figures) and an electrode assembly 23, the electrode assembly 23 being connected to the connector 3 via the first electrical conductor 21, the electrode assembly 23 being provided with a spiral electrode which can be implanted in the myocardial tissue 4 of a patient. Thus, the pulse generator 1 can detect the electrical activity of the heart by means of the medical implant lead 2 and perform a suitable electrical stimulation therapy by means of the electrode assembly 23.
Referring to fig. 1, regarding the pacing technique, since the hill system is a conduction system of the heart, which can be likened to a circuit system of the heart, which is very fast compared to conduction of the myocardial cells, a pacing signal issued from the sinus node can be rapidly conducted to the myocardial cells through a rapid pathway between the atrioventricular node, the right bundle branch 41/left bundle branch 42 (left anterior/posterior branch) and the purkinje fiber 43, and then an electrical signal is transferred to cause mechanical contraction of the cardiac muscle, so that the right ventricle 44 and the left ventricle 45 are contracted almost simultaneously with pacing by the hill system, so that the damage of the cardiac function is not increased.
Traditional his system pacing includes left bundle branch regional pacing (LBBaP) or Left Bundle Branch Pacing (LBBP). Left bundle branch region pacing (LBBaP) is to fix a special ventricular pacing electrode through the ventricular septum in the left bundle branch region (LBBa), directly pace the Left Bundle Branch (LBB) 42, and can quickly excite the conductive bundle branch to realize electro-mechanical synchronous contraction of the heart, and meanwhile, can avoid some defects of the shi bundle pacing, such as high pacing threshold, low sensing, cross sensing, unstable electrode and the like. However, since the pacing electrode of LBBaP needs to pass through the ventricular septum and be fixed in the left bundle branch region, the fixed position of the pacing electrode is deeper and farther than the fixed position of the pacing electrode of his bundle pacing.

Specifically, as shown by the filled-in hatched portion in fig. 4, the surface of the third body 2353 is covered with an insulating coating that extends from the junction of the second body 2352 and the third body 2353 to the distal end of the third body 2353, the distal tip portion of the third body 2353 is uninsulated, and the uninsulated portion is connected to the right bundle branch 41 or right bundle branch region in the room space.

Further, the length of the second electrode 239 is greater than the length of the first electrode 235 that extends beyond the mount 238. Specifically, if the length of the first electrode 235 extending out of the mounting seat 238 is greater than the length of the spiral second electrode 239, so that the length of the first electrode 235 can reach the left bundle branch 42 or the left bundle branch region, since the distal end of the first electrode 235 is needle-shaped, the actual contact area is smaller, the first electrode 235 may not be accurately positioned to the left bundle branch 42 or the left bundle branch region, thereby resulting in poor pacing stimulation effect, and a doctor needs to repeatedly test different implantation positions in order to obtain better pacing effect, thereby increasing the risk of cardiac injury. The length of the second electrode 239 is longer than the length of the first electrode 235, and increasing the length of the uninsulated portion of the tip of the second electrode 239 increases the range of effective stimulation/sensing area (longitudinal height or lateral length) of the second electrode 239 in the myocardial tissue 4, so that the second electrode 239 has a greater chance of contact with the left bundle branch 42 to make it easier for the second electrode 239 to reach the left bundle branch 42 or left bundle branch region during implantation.
Further, the distal end of the first electrode 235 is a needle electrode, so that the inner pericardium is not easily broken when implanted, because the inner pericardium is a membrane having a certain toughness, and has a certain elastic force when the needle electrode perpendicular to the surface enters, and when implanted, pressure needs to be applied perpendicular to the surface of the inner pericardium, and because the implanted lead is flexible, even if the implanted lead can be used for assistance, the force applied perpendicularly is always limited. In the present invention, the distal end of the first electrode 235 is a needle electrode, the second electrode 239 is a spiral electrode, the second electrode 239 can be driven by rotating the medical implantation wire 2, on one hand, the tip of the second electrode 239 enters the myocardial tissue 4 at an inclined angle to receive smaller resistance, on the other hand, the second electrode 239 advances forward in the rotating process, and after advancing to a certain depth, the first electrode 235 is carried into the endocardium, so that the needle electrode can be implanted into the endocardium by rotating the medical implantation wire 2.
Further, the second electrode 239 is fixed to the body of the medical implant lead 2 through the mounting base 238, the insulating bush 237, the first electrode 235, the second conductor 22, and the outer insulating sleeve 236, so that the second electrode 239 rotates following the rotation of the medical implant lead 2, and the rotation of the medical implant lead 2 during operation is converted into the implantation of the second electrode 239 into the endocardium, so that the first electrode 235 is driven to enter the endocardium, that is, the pressure required by the first electrode 235 to break through the endocardium and perpendicular to the surface of the endocardium is increased by rotating the second electrode 239.
Further, the distance that the tip of the second electrode 239 extends distally is greater than the distance that the first electrode 235 extends distally, so that when the medical implant lead 2 is rotated, the second electrode 239 contacts with the myocardial tissue 4 before the first electrode 235, and the second electrode 239 drives the first electrode 235 to break through the endocardium, thereby reducing the operation difficulty during surgical implantation.
Further, the distance between the uninsulated portion at the front end of the second electrode 239 and the uninsulated portion at the front end of the first electrode 235 is a fixed distance, and the distance is 2-6 mm.
Specifically, according to different pitches, the medical implant lead 2 may have different pitch specifications, and adapt to patients with different bundle pitches, so as to achieve the purpose of optimal matching, thereby obtaining better therapeutic effect.
Further, the length of the second electrode 239 may be 8-12 mm, the distal length of the first electrode 235 may be 12mm, and the length of the first electrode 235 extending out of the mounting seat 238 and the insulating bush 237 may be 2-3.5mm.
Further, the second electrode 239 has elasticity, the second electrode 239 is made of elastic material, such as platinum, stainless steel, titanium, nickel-titanium alloy, the diameter of the second electrode 239 is set to be 1-1.8mm, and the screw pitch is set to be 0.8-1.5mm.
Specifically, the spiral shape of the second electrode 239 has two advantages, namely, the success rate of implantation can be improved during implantation, and the elastic deformation of the second electrode 239 can offset part of stress, so that the stress of myocardial motion on the joint of the first conductor 21 and the electrode assembly 23 during or after implantation is reduced, and the service life of the medical implant lead 2 is prolonged.
Specifically, to enhance the insulating effect between the first electrode 235 and the second electrode 239, the proximal end face of the cannula 2282 may extend beyond the proximal end face of the mount 238.
Specifically, when deep implantation is performed, the longer second electrode 239 enters the myocardial tissue 4, the distal end portion of the guide wire 2 does not need to enter together, and tunneling holes are avoided in the inter-ventricular space, so that damage to the myocardial tissue 4 is minimized, and the spiral second electrode 239 easily penetrates the myocardial tissue 4, so that the implantation success rate can be greatly improved.
Further, when the second electrode 239 completely enters the ventricular septum the myocardial tissue 4, the first electrode 235 pierces the right ventricular septum, thereby ensuring that the right ventricular septum can effectively pace.
As shown in fig. 7, the assembly process of the medical implant lead 2 is specifically shown in steps S1 to S6:
s1: connecting the distal end of the first electrical conductor 21 with the proximal end of the conductor connecting pin 231;
s2: sequentially passing through the insulating block 233, the first electrode 235, the insulating bush 237, and the mount 238 from the distal end of the conductor connecting pin 231; wherein the insulating block 233, the first electrode 235, the insulating bushing 237, and the mount 238 are disposed in close proximity; the connection end surfaces among the insulating block 233, the first electrode 235 and the insulating bush 237 are adhered by medical glue, glue is coated on the connection end surfaces in advance before the components are connected, and then the components are connected, or the components are closely arranged and then glue is coated on the joint of the connection end surfaces, and the self-flowing characteristic of the glue is utilized to enter the connection end surfaces to form an adhesive effect.
S3: the proximal end of the mount 238 is soldered to the conductor connecting pin 231, and during soldering, the uninsulated portion of the conductor connecting pin 231 is kept electrically connected to the inside of the fifth hole 2382. This step completes the electrical connection between the first conductor 21 and the first electrode 235. After the mount 238 and the conductor connecting pin 231 are welded, the mount 238 and the insulating bush 237 are bonded.
S4: the proximal end of the second electrode 239 is welded to the stepped distal end face of the mount 238, and the welded assembly formed by the mount 238 and the second electrode 239 is insulated after this step. The common insulation treatment method is to coat an insulating material such as silicone rubber, polyurethane or polyethylene on the surface, wherein the insulating coating can be an insulating coating formed by a vacuum vapor deposition process of PTFE, parylene and the like, and the insulating coating can also be a titanium nitride coating.
S5: the insulating layer 232 is coated on the portion of the first electric conductor 21 close to the conductor connecting pin 231, the inner insulating sleeve 234 is sleeved outside the insulating layer 232, and the distal end of the inner insulating sleeve 234 is abutted against the proximal end of the insulating block 233. In this step, the insulating layer 232 is attached to the first electrical conductor 21 by heat shrinkage or interference fit, etc. by means of heat shrinkage or the like. The insulating layer 232 may also be preassembled on the first electrical conductor 21.
S6: the second electrical conductor 22 is welded to the first body 2351 of the first electrode 235, the outer insulating sleeve 236 is sleeved on the second electrical conductor 22, and the distal end of the outer insulating sleeve 236 abuts against the second body 2352. The distal end of the outer insulation sleeve 236 is sealed with the end surface of the second body 2352, which abuts against the second body, by using glue, so as to prevent the leakage of the medical implant lead 2.
The order of step S3 and step S4 may be reversed, i.e. the mounting base 238 is welded to the proximal end of the second electrode 239, and then the mounting base 238 is welded to the distal non-insulated portion of the conductor connecting pin 231, so as to electrically connect the mounting base 238 and the conductor connecting pin 231.
Referring to fig. 1 and 8, after the electrode assembly 23 is implanted in the compartment, the second electrode 239 is entirely disposed in the compartment, and the third body 2353 is disposed in the compartment. The mount 238 and the second body 2352 are positioned outside of the ventricular septum, and the second body 2352 is positioned in the blood pool of the ventricle. When sensing an electrocardiograph signal, a first sensing vector 13 is formed between the second body 2352 and the tip of the second electrode 239, and a second sensing vector 14 is formed between the tip of the first electrode 235 and the tip of the second electrode 239. Compared with the prior art that only one pair of sensing vectors are arranged on the pacing electrode of the physiological system, the invention simultaneously arranges the first sensing vector 13 and the second sensing vector 14 to form the sensing vectors which are redundant with each other, and has the advantage of being capable of preventing the problem of poor sensing caused by insulating tissues covered on the surface of the left bundle branch 42 or the right bundle branch 41, myocardial cell fibrosis, electrode position movement and the like.
Specifically, the tip of the third body 2353 is connected to the right bundle branch 41 or the right bundle branch region, and the first sensing vector 13 includes a component electric signal of the cardiac depolarization electric signal between the tip of the first electrode 235 and the tip of the second electrode 239, which is denoted as a first electric signal; the second sensing 15 vector includes component signals of the cardiac depolarization electrical signal between the second body 2352 and the second electrode 239, noted as second electrical signals. In some cases, the first signal may not be sensed, or in case the first signal is too weak, the second signal may still be sensed normally as a redundant signal of the first signal, thereby ensuring that the pulse generator 1 is able to perform an appropriate diagnostic or therapeutic action based on the sensed signal.
The pulse generator 1 includes a switch control circuit, where the switch control circuit is configured to control a sensing loop formed by the first electrode 235 and the second electrode 239, and a third sensing vector and a fourth sensing vector may be further set by controlling the switch circuit, where the third sensing vector and the fourth sensing vector are opposite to the first sensing vector 13 and the second sensing vector 14.
Further, when the pulse generator 1 paces the myocardial tissue 4, a first pacing vector 15 is formed between the tip of the first electrode 235 and the tip of the second electrode 239, and a second pacing vector 16 is formed between the second body 2352 and the tip of the second electrode 239. The first pacing vector 15 and the second pacing vector 16 form mutually redundant pacing vectors, so that the second pacing vector 16 may be used instead of the first pacing vector 15 when the physiological system pacing of the pacemaker is not effective. It should be noted that since the second body 2352 is at a different physiological position than the tip of the first electrode 235, the pacing thresholds at which the first pacing vector 15 and the second pacing vector 16 capture the myocardium are different, and the purpose of switching the effective pacing vector is achieved by adjusting the different pacing thresholds.
In summary, the first electrode 235 of the present application, including the second body 2352 located in the blood pool of the right ventricle 44 and the third body 2353 located in the inter-ventricular space, the tip of the first electrode 235 and the second body 2352 form the first sensing vector 13, the tip of the first electrode 235 and the third body 2353 form the second sensing vector 14, the second sensing vector 14 can be used as a redundant vector, when the first sensing vector 13 fails, it is ensured that the pulse generator 1 can still sense the cardiac depolarization signal, the sensing reliability is ensured, and the actual pacing therapeutic effect is generated by controlling different pacing vectors by controlling the pacing threshold, and the effectiveness of the pacing therapy itself is ensured by the dual pacing vector.
In clinical applications, the lead may accommodate such physiological changes by sensing redundancy and adjusting pacing thresholds if a portion of the patient is not effectively sensed from the left 42 or right 41 bundle branch when fibrosis occurs in the myocardium adjacent the first 235 and second 239 electrodes.
In conclusion, when the invention realizes the deep implantation of the inter-ventricular septum, only the spiral head electrode enters myocardial tissue, and the medical implantation lead part does not enter together, thereby minimizing the damage of the myocardial tissue; the spiral head electrode is easy to penetrate into myocardial tissue, the difficulty in implantation is reduced, the implantation success rate is greatly improved, and particularly for cases of myocardial fibrosis, the implantation success rate is remarkably improved; the pacing at the left bundle supporting part simultaneously realizes the right interval pacing, so that the pacing of a clinical conduction system achieves the optimal effect; the needle-shaped pacing electrode can greatly reduce the pacing threshold value, and the ring electrode positioned in the blood pool has good sensing characteristics; the redundancy of the sensing vector and the pacing vector is realized, more reliable sensing signals and pacing signals are provided, and the problems of poor sensing or poor pacing caused by various reasons (such as myocardial cell fibrosis) can be avoided.
