Background

The catheter sheath plays an important role as an auxiliary guide instrument for peripheral and intracardiac minimally invasive interventional operations in percutaneous coronary artery interventional operations, percutaneous interventional occlusion operations, interatrial puncture operations and the like, and establishes a connecting channel between a human blood vessel and the outside so as to assist a conveying system to convey diagnosis and/or treatment instruments to a target lesion position. The hemostasis valve is an essential part in a catheter sheath product, is generally arranged at the near end of a sheath tube, can prevent blood loss, reduce bleeding amount, prevent air from entering a blood vessel to form air embolism and reduce complications of a patient.

In the prior art, the structure of the hemostatic valve mainly comprises:

1. luer open, i.e. by rotating a luer with an axial opening to squeeze a substantially cylindrical elastic element at the distal end of the luer, the central bore diameter of the elastic element is changed. Rotating the luer to move the luer towards the far end under the state that the dilator or other medical instruments are withdrawn from the hemostatic valve until the elastic member is extruded until the aperture of the central hole of the elastic member is reduced to 0 so as to seal the near end of the sheath tube; when the dilator or other medical instruments penetrate into the sheath tube, the luer is rotated in the opposite direction to enable the luer to move towards the proximal end, so that the elastic piece is properly loosened, and the central hole of the elastic piece surrounds the outer peripheral surface of the dilator or other medical instruments to play a sealing role. However, the hemostatic valve with the luer opening structure has the obvious defects that: when a dilator or other medical instrument with a larger diameter needs to be inserted into the hemostatic valve, the initial aperture of the central hole of the elastic part is correspondingly larger, so that the central hole of the elastic part can not be reduced to be completely closed by luer extrusion, therefore, the hemostatic valve of the type has poor sealing effect and limited reliability in preventing blood loss, and still has the risk of blood leakage or gas entering the body when being matched with the dilator or other medical instrument with a larger diameter.

An x-shaped or a cross-shaped incision type is adopted, namely two crossed penetrating incisions are arranged on the hemostatic valve. In a natural state, the penetrating incisions are closed to close the proximal end of the sheath, and when the dilator or other medical instrument penetrates into the sheath through the penetrating incisions, the penetrating incisions are opened and fit against the outer surface of the dilator or other medical instrument to achieve sealing effect. However, the hemostatic valve with the "x" or "cross" shaped notch structure also has the obvious defects: when the dilator with larger diameter or other medical instruments penetrate the hemostatic valve, the starting end and the tail end of each penetrating incision can not be completely attached to the outer peripheral surface of the dilator or other medical instruments; in addition, after the dilators or other medical instruments with larger diameters are inserted into and withdrawn from the hemostatic valve for multiple times, the penetrating incisions may not return to a completely closed state under a natural state, so that the sealing effect of the hemostatic valve is not ideal, the reliability for preventing blood loss is limited, and the risk of blood leakage or gas entering the body still exists when the dilators or other medical instruments with larger diameters enter or exit the hemostatic valve.

The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

Referring to fig. 1 and 18-20, the present invention provides a catheter sheath assembly 100, which includes a sheath tube 10 and a dilator 70, wherein the sheath tube 10 includes a hemostatic valve 20 and a tube 50 having a certain axial length, and the hemostatic valve 20 is disposed at or near a proximal end of the tube 50. Further, the sheath tube 10 further includes a handle 54 disposed at the proximal end of the tube 50, the hemostatic valve 20 is detachably connected to the proximal end of the handle 54, and the dilator 70 is movably inserted in the hemostatic valve 20, the handle 54 and the tube 50 in sequence. The tube 50 may be an adjustable bending tube or an non-adjustable bending tube, and the handle 54 may be capable of manipulating the tube 50, such as bending the distal end of the tube 50. It is understood that in other embodiments, the hemostatic valve 20 is removably attached to the distal end of the handle 54 and the dilator 70 is removably insertable within the handle 54, the hemostatic valve 20, and the tube 50 in that order.

Referring to fig. 2 to 7, the hemostatic valve 20 includes a valve core 22 and a valve body 25, and the valve core 22 is disposed in the valve body 25. The valve core 22 includes a valve core main body 221 and a cover body 225 connected to a distal end of the valve core main body 221, an axial through hole 220 for inserting the dilator 70 or other medical instruments is formed in the valve core main body 221, and the cover body 225 is opened or automatically closed relative to the valve core main body 221 to expose or close the axial through hole 220 accordingly. The expander 70 is movably arranged in the axial through hole 220 of the valve core main body 221 of the hemostatic valve 20 and the pipe body 50 in a penetrating manner; the expander 70 pushes the cover 225 of the valve core main body 221 towards the far end so as to release the cover 225 from sealing the axial through hole 220; when the expander 70 is withdrawn, the cover 225 automatically resets to close the axial through hole 220.

The utility model provides a hemostasis valve 20, sheath pipe 10 and pipe sheath subassembly 100, because hemostasis valve 20 includes case main part 22 and lid 225, offer the axial through hole 220 that is used for interlude expander 70 on the case main part 22, lid 225 can be relative case main part 221 is opened or self-closing with corresponding exposing or sealing axial through hole 220, the structure similar to the hatch door. When the expander 70 or other medical instrument pushes the cover body 225 towards the far end to release the cover body 225 from sealing the axial through hole 220, a seal is formed between the expander 70 or other medical instrument and the axial through hole 220; when the dilator 70 or other medical instruments are withdrawn from the axial through hole 220, the cover body 225 automatically resets immediately under the action of blood pressure to seal the axial through hole 220 to form a seal, so that blood leakage or gas entering the body is prevented in the whole course of the operation, the sealing effect is ideal, the sealing reliability is high, and the safety and the success rate of the operation are improved; compared with the existing hemostatic valve, the hemostatic valve 20 similar to the hatch door structure breaks through the limitation of the diameter of the dilator or other medical instrument, and is particularly suitable for sealing by matching with the dilator or other medical instrument with a larger diameter.

Referring to fig. 4 to 7, the valve core 22 is made of an elastic and waterproof material, specifically, the valve core 22 may be made of other elastic and waterproof materials such as silicone rubber, elastic plastic, and the like, and preferably, the valve core 22 may be made of a material such as a polystyrene elastomer, a polyethylene elastomer, a polyurethane elastomer, a silicone rubber, or a polyisoprene rubber elastomer. In this embodiment, the valve core 22 is made of silicon rubber. The shape of the valve core 22 may be a cylinder, a rectangular body, a kidney-shaped body, a polygonal body or an irregular body, and only the valve core 22 needs to be hermetically accommodated in the valve body 25, in this embodiment, the shape of the valve core 22 is a cylinder.

As shown in fig. 4 and 5, the cover 225 is disposed at the distal end portion of the valve plug main body 22, and in this embodiment, the cover 225 is rotatably connected to the distal end surface of the valve plug main body 22 adjacent to the axial through hole 220. The cover 225 is similar to a hatch door, and when the cover 225 is pushed towards the far end, the cover 225 rotates relative to the valve core main body 221 and is far away from the axial through hole 220, so that the axial through hole 220 is exposed and opened. Specifically, the distal end portion of the expander 70 passes through the axial through hole 220, and pushes against the proximal end surface of the cover 225 facing the axial through hole 220, so that the cover 225 rotates away from the axial through hole 220 to release the cover 225 from closing the axial through hole 220, and at this time, the connection portion between the cover 225 and the valve plug main body 221 is elastically deformed; when the pushing force pushing the cover 225 distally disappears after the dilator 70 is withdrawn, the cover 225 will reset under the effect of its own elastic restoration to close the axial through hole 220 again, so that the axial through hole 220 is in a closed state, and blood will press the cover 225 proximally, so that the cover 225 is closed more quickly and reliably, and the cover 225 will be pushed away only when the pushing force pushing the cover 225 distally is greater than the pressure of blood on the cover 225. Specifically, when the expander 70 is withdrawn from the axial through hole 220 to release the pushing on the cover 225, the connection portion between the cover 225 and the valve core main body 221 is elastically restored to drive the cover 225 to be restored, so as to close the axial through hole 220.

The axial through hole 220 extends along the axial direction of the tube 50, and the axial through hole 220 penetrates through the proximal end surface and the distal end surface of the valve body 221. Specifically, the axial through hole 220 is opened in the middle of the valve body 221 along the axial direction of the valve body 221. The valve core main body 221 is provided with a plurality of inner flanges 2212 on the inner circumferential wall of the axial through hole 220 at intervals along the axial direction, each inner flange 2212 is provided with a circle along the circumferential direction of the inner circumferential wall of the axial through hole 220, and an annular groove 2214 is enclosed between every two adjacent inner flanges 2212. Since the inner flanges 2212 are made of waterproof material having elasticity, when the outer circumferential wall of the dilator 70 presses each inner flange 2212, the inner flange 2212 is elastically deformed to be received in the corresponding annular groove 2214. Thus, the inner diameter of the axial through hole 220 determines the maximum diameter of the sheath core (i.e., the dilator or other medical device) that can pass through the axial through hole 220, and the inner diameter of the inner flange 2212 determines the interference between the inner flange 2212 and the sheath core and the minimum diameter of the sheath core that can pass therethrough. Theoretically, the larger the interference, the better the sealing effect, but at the same time, the larger the interference will cause the sheath-core to resist more resistance during the pumping process. The inner diameter values of the axial through hole 220 and the inner flange 2212 can be adaptively designed according to the actual diameter range of the sheath core to be penetrated, so that the hemostatic valve 20 can have a good sealing effect even on the sheath core with a larger diameter, and the hemostatic valve 20 can be suitable for being matched with a large sheath tube of 24F-15F. Preferably, the inner diameter of the inner flange 2212 is 5mm to 10mm smaller than the inner diameter of the axial through hole 220. When the dilator 70 having a diameter larger than the inner diameter of the inner flange 2212 is inserted into the axial through hole 220, the interference fit between the inner flange 2212 and the dilator 70 can play a role in sealing, and can prevent blood from leaking between the dilator 70 and the inner circumferential surface of the axial through hole 220 when the cover 225 is opened. The number of the inner flanges 2212 is not limited, and is preferably 1 to 3; in this embodiment, the number of the inner flanges 2212 is 3.

As shown in fig. 6 and 7, one of the distal end of the valve core main body 221 or the proximal end of the cover 225 is provided with a first spigot structure, and the other is provided with a second spigot structure adapted to the first spigot structure, and the first spigot structure and the second spigot structure are mutually embedded to form a spigot, so that the cover 225 is tightly and hermetically covered on the axial through hole 220 of the valve core main body 221.

In this embodiment, a stepped hole 2217 coaxial with the axial through hole 220 is provided on the distal end surface of the valve plug main body 221 as the first seam allowance structure, the diameter of the stepped hole 2217 is larger than the diameter of the axial through hole 220 and smaller than the outer diameter of the cover 225, an annular flange 2251 adapted to the stepped hole 2217 is provided on the proximal end of the cover 225 as the second seam allowance structure, and the annular flange 2251 is fitted into the stepped hole 2217 to form a seam allowance. When the cover 225 is fitted to the valve body 221, the annular flange 2251 is fitted into the stepped hole 2217. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, an annular flange may be provided on the distal face of the cartridge body 221 and a stepped bore provided at the proximal end of the cap body 225.

In this embodiment, the stepped hole 2217 extends along the edge of the axial through hole 220, and the stepped hole 2217 communicates with the axial through hole 220; since the inner diameter of the stepped hole 2217 is greater than the inner diameter of the axial through hole 220, the valve body 221 forms a stepped surface 2218 between the stepped hole 2217 and the axial through hole 220; since the inner diameter of the stepped hole 2217 has a smaller value than the outer diameter of the cover 225, the cover 225 can be prevented from being caught in the stepped hole 2217. Preferably, the inner diameter of the stepped bore 2217 has a value of about two-thirds of the diameter of the cover 225. The outer diameter of the annular flange 2251 is equal to or slightly larger than the inner diameter of the stepped hole 2217, so that when the cover 225 covers the valve plug main body 221, the annular flange 2251 can be tightly clamped into the stepped hole 2217, and the annular flange 2251 abuts against the stepped surface 2218 to close the axial through hole 220 and prevent the cover 225 from sinking into the axial through hole 220. When the cover body 225 covers the valve core main body 221, the cover body 225 can effectively seal the far end of the axial through hole 220; when the hemostatic valve 20 is applied to the sheath tube 10 and the catheter sheath assembly 100, after the cover 225 closes the axial through hole 220, the blood pressure in the tube 50 further presses the cover 225 towards the proximal end, so that the sealing reliability of the hemostatic valve 20 can be further improved, and the sealing effect can be increased.

In other embodiments, the second seam allowance structure may be a plate body that can be accommodated in the step hole 2217, that is, the plate body may be a circular plate that is protruded from the proximal end of the cover 225 toward the axial through hole 220, the diameter of the circular plate is equal to or slightly larger than the inner diameter of the step hole 2217, the circular plate can be sealingly accommodated in the step hole 2217, and the proximal end surface of the circular plate abuts against the step surface 2218.

With reference to fig. 4 to 7, 16 and 17, the outer peripheral surface of the valve core 22 is in sealing contact with the valve body 25, and preferably, the outer peripheral surface of the valve core 22 is positioned with the valve body 25 by fitting a positioning snap ring with a positioning snap groove. Specifically, a positioning snap ring 2219 is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the valve core main body 221, a positioning snap groove 2526 matched with the positioning snap ring 2219 is formed in the valve body 25, and when the valve core 22 is accommodated in the valve body 25, the positioning snap ring 2219 is clamped into the corresponding positioning snap groove 2526 to prevent the valve core main body 221 from sliding in the axial direction; and the positioning snap ring 2219 is in interference fit with the positioning snap groove 2526 in the radial direction, so that blood can be prevented from leaking out from between the valve core 22 and the valve body 25. The number of the positioning snap rings 2219 is not limited, and is preferably 1 or 2. In this embodiment, the number of the positioning snap rings 2219 is one, and the positioning snap rings 2219 are arranged in a continuous circle along the circumferential direction of the outer circumferential surface of the valve body 221.

As shown in fig. 4, a plurality of ribs 2255 are provided on the cover 225, and the ribs 2255 are used to reinforce the strength of the cover. Specifically, the cover 225 is provided with several ribs 2255 on the distal end surface and/or the proximal end surface for reinforcing the strength of the cover 225 to prevent the cover 225 from buckling and deforming distally under the pressure of the large blood pressure to cause blood leakage. Further, the plurality of reinforcing ribs 2255 may be uniformly distributed across the center of the cover 225, or may be distributed in a criss-cross manner or in other distribution forms. In this embodiment, the reinforcing ribs 2255 are disposed on the distal end surface of the cover 225, and the reinforcing ribs 2255 are uniformly distributed across the center of the cover 225.

The cover 225 is connected to the valve body 221 through an elastic connecting portion 226, and in this embodiment, the connecting portion 226 is an elastic connecting piece connected between the cover 225 and the valve body 221, and the elastic connecting piece extends along the periphery of the axial through hole 220 and is a substantially arc-shaped solid. The connecting portion 226 forces the cover 225 to automatically close the axial through hole 220 in a natural state, which means a state that the cover 225 is not subjected to an external force, after the cover 225 is opened, the connecting portion 226 is elastically restored to drive the cover 225 to automatically close, and in addition, the cover 225 is pressed by blood to the cover 225, so that the cover 225 can more quickly and more tightly close the axial through hole 220. As shown in fig. 5, when the cover 225 closes the axial through hole 220, the cross section of the connecting portion 226 has an L shape or a circular arc shape. In this embodiment, the valve core main body 221, the cover 225 and the connecting portion 226 are integrally formed by a waterproof material having elasticity.

Referring to fig. 8 to 10, another structure of the valve core of the present invention is similar to that of the first embodiment of the valve core, except that: in another structure of the valve core, the connecting portions 226a between the cover 225 and the valve core main body 221 are elastic connecting rods, which can elastically return to automatically drive the cover 225 to close the axial through hole 220 of the valve core main body 221. A plurality of the elastic connecting rods are arranged at intervals, and preferably, the elastic connecting rods are arranged at intervals along the periphery of the axial through hole 220.

The connection portion 226a may be connected as an independent member between the cover 225 and the valve body 221; the connection portion 226a may be formed by integrally molding the valve body 221 and the cover 225 with a waterproof material having elasticity.

Referring to fig. 11, another structural form of the valve core of the present invention is similar to that of the first embodiment, except that: in another structure form of the valve core, an annular flange 2211 is convexly arranged on the distal end surface of the valve core main body 221, and the annular flange 2211 serves as a first spigot structure; the cover 225 is provided with a positioning ring groove 2257 for fitting the annular flange 2211, and the annular flange 2211 is engaged with the positioning ring groove 2257 when the cover 225 closes the axial through hole 220.

In the other structural form of the valve cartridge, the annular flange 2211 is protruded from the distal end surface of the valve cartridge body 221 and surrounds the axial through hole 220 by one turn, and the positioning ring groove 2257 is opened on the proximal end surface of the cover 225. When the cover 225 closes the axial through bore 220, the annular flange 2211 snaps into the positioning ring groove 2257.

Referring to fig. 12, another structure of the valve core of the present invention is similar to that of the first embodiment, except that: in the valve core with the still another structure form, at least one positioning clamping groove 2213 is formed in the outer circumferential surface of the valve core main body 221 along the circumferential direction, a positioning clamping ring corresponding to the positioning clamping groove 2213 is arranged in the valve body 25, and when the valve core 22 is accommodated in the valve body 25, the positioning clamping ring of the valve body 25 is clamped into the corresponding positioning clamping groove 2213 to prevent the valve core main body 221 from sliding in the axial direction; the positioning snap ring and the positioning snap groove 2213 are in interference fit in the radial direction, so that blood can be prevented from leaking out from the position between the valve core 22 and the valve body 25. The number of the positioning card slots 2213 is not limited, and is preferably 1 or 2. In this embodiment, the positioning slot 2213 is provided in a continuous circle along the circumferential direction of the outer circumferential surface of the valve body 221.

Referring to fig. 13 to 16, the valve body 25 may be made of a polymer material or a metal material, and preferably, the valve body 25 in this embodiment is made of a transparent PC material. The valve body 25 includes a valve housing 252 and a valve cover 255 connected to the valve housing 252. Specifically, the valve cap 255 is removably attached to the proximal end of the valve housing 252.
