Background

Some procedures involving the heart and aorta, such as cardiac surgery, cardiopulmonary bypass, catheter-based interventional cardiology, aortic surgery, etc., involve the formation of platelet polymers (e.g., emboli, lipid droplets, bacterial clots and/or other foreign matter, tumor cells or other small tissue fragments) or broken off of arterial walls from blood by surgical instruments that are transported through the blood stream into the cerebral blood circulation and other important systemic arterial systems as embolizing vascular material. Embolic material entering the cerebral blood circulation can block arterioles, thereby causing local cerebral vascular embolization, which is now an important complication of cardiac and aortic surgery. While substances entering the downstream blood circulation can cause downstream organ embolism, which can lead to organ failure or organ failure.

Generally, in order to prevent complications caused by embolic material, it is often necessary to divert, capture or collect emboli such as plaque, debris or emboli flowing anteriorly during the procedure using embolic protection devices to prevent the formation of emboli.

Referring to fig. 1-2, fig. 1 shows a schematic structural view of an anti-embolic protection device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the anti-embolic protection device 10 is used for placement at the aortic arch 40 during cardiac or aortic surgery to filter blood flow to the brain and prevent emboli from entering the brain. Fig. 2 illustrates a schematic view of the anti-embolic protection device 10 in the aortic arch 40. The convex side of the aortic arch 40 is communicated with 3 large arteries, namely a brachiocephalic trunk artery 41, a left common carotid artery 42 and a left subclavian artery 43 from left to right. The anti-embolism protection device 10 provided by the embodiment can be delivered to the aortic arch 40, covers the communication ports of the brachiocephalic trunk 41, the left common carotid artery 42 and the left subclavian artery 43 with the aorta, and plays a role in filtering the ascending blood flow of the brachiocephalic trunk 41, the left common carotid artery 42 and the left subclavian artery 43, so as to prevent emboli generated in the operation process from entering the brain through the brachiocephalic trunk 41, the left common carotid artery 42 and the left subclavian artery 43.

Specifically, referring to fig. 1, the anti-embolic protection device 10 includes a support frame 11, a first filter 12, a second filter 14, and a support member. Wherein the first filter member 12 is covered on the support frame 11. The second filter element 14 is located below the first filter element 12 and is connected to the first filter element 12 or the support frame 11. The second filter member 14 and the first filter member 12 enclose a passage 141 having both ends open. The channel 141 may be used for blood flow and/or passage of subsequent surgical instruments such as pigtail catheters, visualization catheters, and the like. The support member includes a first support member 13, and the first support member 13 is connected to the distal end of the second filter member 14 or the support frame 11 for defining the shape of the distal opening of the passage 141.

Further, in order to describe the structural features of the present application more clearly, the terms "proximal end 111" and "distal end 112" are used as the directional terms, wherein "proximal end 111" represents the end close to the operator during the operation; "distal end 112" means the end that is distal to the operator. Specifically, the proximal end 111 of the support frame 11 is used to connect to a delivery mechanism 20, and the delivery mechanism 20 is used to deliver the anti-embolic protection device 10 to a target location within the aortic arch 40. Further, the supporting frame 11 is attached to the inner wall of the aortic arch 40 for supporting the first filtering member 12, so that the first filtering member 12 is closely attached to the inner wall of the aortic arch 40, and the first filtering member 12 can cover the communication ports of the brachiocephalic artery 41, the left common carotid artery 42 and the left subclavian artery 43 with the aorta. Further, the first support member 13 is disposed at the distal end 112 of the second filter member 14 (i.e., the end of the second filter member 14 adjacent the heart). The first support member 13 is used to support the second filter member 14 to maintain the shape of the opening of the passage 141, and prevent the passage 141 formed by the second filter member 14 from being deformed or collapsed by the ascending blood flow. Further, the second filter member 14 is connected to the support frame 11 or the first filter member 12, such that the second filter member 14 and the first filter member 12 together enclose a passage 141 having two open ends 1 for blood flow and/or subsequent surgical instruments such as pigtail catheters, visualization catheters, etc. to pass through the anti-embolic protection device 10 from the passage 141.

Meanwhile, by arranging the second filter element 14 below the support frame 11 and enclosing the second filter element 14 and the first filter element 12 to form the channel 141 with two open ends, when the first filter element 12 is not attached to the inner wall of the aortic arch 40 well or is displaced and cannot completely cover the brachiocephalic trunk artery 41, the left common carotid artery 42 or the left subclavian artery 43, a large amount of blood flow in the aorta still flows into the channel 141 formed by the second filter element 14, and when the blood flows out from the peripheral surface of the channel 141 and enters the brachiocephalic trunk artery 41, the left common carotid artery 42 or the left subclavian artery 43, emboli in the blood are filtered by the first filter element 12 and the second filter element 14, so that the possibility that emboli escape into the brain is reduced, the emboli blocking efficiency is improved, and the risk of a patient suffering from cerebral apoplexy is reduced. And when the first filter member 12 is well attached to the inner wall of the aortic arch 40, the first support member 13 can provide a certain supporting force for the supporting frame 11, so that the first filter member 12 can still be tightly attached to the inner wall under the scouring of ascending blood flow, the adherence of the anti-embolism protection device 10 is improved, the occurrence of embolus escape caused by gaps generated between the first filter member 12 and the inner wall is prevented, the first support member 13 can also anchor the aortic arch 40, the anti-embolism protection device 10 is prevented from displacement, and the stability of the anti-embolism protection device 10 is improved. In addition, the channel 141 formed by the first filter member 12 and the second filter member 14 can be used for subsequent surgical instruments to pass through, so that the second filter member 14 can well protect the inner wall of the aortic arch 40 and prevent the inner wall of the aortic arch 40 from being scratched by the subsequent surgical instruments.

Further, referring to fig. 3, the support member further includes a second support member 15, and the second support member 15 is connected to the proximal end of the second filter member 14 or the support frame 11 for defining the shape of the proximal opening of the channel 141. The proximal end 111 of the second filter member 14 is supported by the second support member 15 to better maintain the shape of the passageway 141 defined by the second filter member 14 and to facilitate passage of a guide wire and subsequent surgical instruments through the passageway 141. Preferably, the channel 141 is of a cylindrical configuration with open ends so that the second filter member 14 can be placed against the inner wall of the aortic arch 40.

Referring to fig. 4, in one embodiment, an end of the first support 13 away from the support frame 11 is in a closed configuration. Likewise, the end of the second support 15 remote from the support frame 11 may also be of a closed configuration.

It should be noted that, referring to fig. 5-6, in another embodiment, an opening 133 is provided at an end of the first supporting member 13 away from the supporting frame 11, and similarly, an opening 133 may also be provided at an end of the second supporting member 15 away from the supporting frame 11, that is, the first supporting member 13 and/or the second supporting member 15 are in an open-loop structure, and the first supporting member 13 and/or the second supporting member 15 in the open-loop structure make the anti-embolic protection device 10 more easily compressed, so as to facilitate the retraction of the anti-embolic protection device 10 into the sheath 21 after the operation is finished. It should be noted that, in other embodiments, one of the first supporting member 13 and the second supporting member 15 may be a closed structure, and the other one is an open structure, which is not described herein.

The connecting section 132 is connected with the supporting frame 11 by welding or by a metal pipe socket. Preferably, the connecting section 132 extends in a direction proximal to the proximal end 111 of the support frame 11 to further facilitate retraction of the anti-embolic protection device 10 within the outer sheath 21. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the connecting section 132 may be omitted from the first supporting member 13 and/or the second supporting member 15, and the supporting section 131 is directly connected to the supporting frame 11 or the supporting section 131 is directly connected to the supporting frame 11 through an additional member.

The angle between the second support member 15 and the distal end 112 side of the support frame 11 is in the range of greater than 0 ° and less than or equal to 90 °, preferably in the range of 45 ° to 75 °. Further, the first supporting member 13 and the second supporting member 15 are both closed arc structures, and when the anti-embolism protection device 10 is in the deployed state, the diameter of the arc structures ranges from 10mm to 50mm, and the length of the arc ranges from 30mm to 120mm, which may specifically vary according to the difference in inner diameters of the aortic arch 40 at the positions where the first supporting member 13 and the second supporting member 15 are located. Further, when the anti-embolic protection device 10 is in the deployed state, the distance between the connection points of the first support member 13 and the second support member 15 on the support frame 11 ranges from 40mm to 100mm, and the distance between the connection points of the first support member 13 and the second support member 15 on the support frame 11 is smaller than the distance between the distal end point and the proximal end point of the support frame 11. Specifically, when the anti-embolic protection device 10 is in the deployed state, the distance from the connection point of the first support member 13 and the support frame 11 to the distal end point of the support frame 11 ranges from 10mm to 50mm, and the distance from the connection point of the second support member 15 and the support frame 11 to the proximal end point of the support frame 11 ranges from 10mm to 50 mm.

Further, referring to fig. 8, the support frame 11 includes a frame in a closed loop configuration, and the outer circumference of the first filter member 12 is connected to the frame. Preferably, the support frame 11 is a closed loop structure formed by one or more arcs of different or the same shape, so that the support frame 11 can adapt to different aortic arch shapes and diameters, and can better fit the aortic arch 40 upper wall and support the first filter member 12. The supporting frame 11 is a longitudinally symmetrical or asymmetrical structure, and the length between the distal end point and the proximal end point of the supporting frame 11 is 40mm-120mm when the anti-embolism protection device 10 is in the unfolding state.

Further, the first filter member 12 and/or the second filter member 14 are woven or laser-perforated films, such as PET (Polyethylene terephthalate), PEEK (polyether ether ketone), PA (Polyamide, nylon) and other high molecular materials. Preferably, the first filter member 12 and/or the second filter member 14 are elastic membranes, for example, the material of the first filter member 12 and/or the second filter member 14 is a woven PET membrane, so that when the anti-embolic protection device 10 is contracted inside the outer sheath 21, the elastic membranes can be stretched, and when the anti-embolic protection device 10 is released out of the outer sheath 21, the elastic membranes can be restored to their original shape. Compared with the first filter element 12 and the second filter element 14 which use non-elastic membrane materials, the first filter element 12 and the second filter element 14 which use elastic membrane materials can reduce the usage amount of the membrane materials, thereby reducing the whole volume of the anti-embolism protection device 10, enabling the anti-embolism protection device 10 to enter the outer sheath tube 21 more easily, and when the anti-embolism protection device 10 is released, the folded membrane materials inside the channel 141 formed by the second filter element 14 are less, and the channel 141 is more convenient for the subsequent surgical instruments to pass through. Further, the mesh size of the first filter element 12 and/or the second filter element 14 may be between 50um and 250um, preferably between 60um and 150um, and more preferably between 100um and 150um, when the anti-embolic protection device 10 is in the deployed state.

In other embodiments, the first filter member 12 and/or the second filter member 14 may be constructed of a material having an anti-clotting agent.

Further, referring to fig. 9, an embodiment of the present application also provides a medical device. Specifically, the medical device of an embodiment includes the anti-embolic protection device 10 of any of the embodiments described above, and a delivery mechanism 20 for delivering the anti-embolic protection device 10 from the femoral vessel lumen into the aortic arch 40. The delivery mechanism 20 includes a pusher member 22, and the pusher member 22 is attached to the proximal end of the support frame 11 or the first filter element 12. Further, the delivery mechanism 20 further comprises an outer sheath 21, a pushing member 22 is movably disposed in the outer sheath 21, the anti-embolic protection device 10 has a contracted state where it is contracted in the outer sheath 21 and a released state where it is located outside the outer sheath 21, the pushing member 22 is connected with the anti-embolic protection device 10, and the pushing member 22 is used for driving the anti-embolic protection device 10 to switch between the contracted state and the released state.

Specifically, during delivery, the anti-embolic protection device 10 is compressed and placed within the sheath 21, thereby facilitating delivery of the anti-embolic protection device 10 to the aortic arch 40. After the anti-embolic protection device 10 is delivered to the target location in the aortic arch 40, the anti-embolic protection device 10 is released to the aortic arch 40 by moving the sheath 21 and the pusher 22 relative to each other to cover the communication ports of the brachiocephalic trunk 41, the left common carotid artery 42 and the left subclavian artery 43 with the aorta. When it is desired to withdraw the anti-embolic protection device 10, the anti-embolic protection device 10 is again retracted within the outer sheath 21 by moving the outer sheath 21 and the pusher 22 relative to each other, and during the process of the anti-embolic protection device 10 entering the outer sheath 21, the first and second supports 13 and 15 are retracted towards the distal end 112 of the support frame 11, thereby reducing the resistance of the anti-embolic protection device 10 to entering the outer sheath 21.

Further, the pushing member 22 is provided with a guide wire hole penetrating through the axial direction thereof, and the guide wire hole is used for penetrating a guide wire, so that the anti-embolism protection device 10 can enter the aortic arch 40 along the guide wire pre-embedded in the aorta. In another embodiment, the pusher 22 may also be a solid rod with some rigidity. Preferably, the pusher 22 may be a stainless steel or nickel titanium or polymeric tube or rod. Further, referring to FIG. 10, the pusher member 22 is pre-shaped to have a curvature that allows the device to be more adherent during delivery by shaping to different angles of curvature to conform to the shape of the aortic arch 40. The distal end 112 of the pusher member 22 may be attached to the distal end 112 or the proximal end 111 of the support frame 11, or the pusher member 22 may be attached to both the distal end 112 and the proximal end 111 of the support frame 11.

Further, the pushing member 22 penetrates through the anti-embolism protection device 10, and when the anti-embolism protection device 10 is in a release state, the pushing member 22 abuts against the first filtering member 12, so that the first filtering member 12 forms an arc-shaped structure protruding towards a direction away from the second filtering member 14, and the pushing member 22 supports the first filtering member 12 to form the arc-shaped structure, so that the first filtering member 12 can be better attached to the inner wall of the aortic arch 40.

Further, referring to fig. 11, the distal end 112 of the pusher member 22 is provided with a flexible section 221, for example, the distal end 112 of the pusher member 22 is formed with a sea wave cutting structure such that the distal end 112 of the pusher member 22 forms the flexible section 221. Further, the distance between the flexible section 221 and the pushing member 2222 may range from 100mm to 400mm, and preferably may range from 140mm to 300 mm. The flexible section 221 of the pushing member 22 allows the pushing member 22 to freely conform to the curvature of the vessel in the aortic arch 40 and to adhere to the upper wall of the aortic arch 40, thereby allowing the pushing member 22 to support the entire first filtering element 12 for subsequent passage of the device through the channel 141.

Referring to the drawings, the delivery mechanism 20 may further comprise a handle 23, wherein the proximal end 111 of the outer sheath 21 is fixedly connected to the distal end 112 of the handle 23, and the proximal end 111 of the pushing member 22 is movably inserted through the handle 23 and connected to the distal end 112 of the handle 23, so that the pushing and pulling of the handle 23 can move the outer sheath 21 and the pushing member 22 relative to each other to release the anti-embolic protection device 10 out of the outer sheath 21 or shrink the anti-embolic protection device into the outer sheath 21.

Further, the delivery mechanism 20 may further comprise a contrast catheter (not shown), and the handle 23 may be further provided with a contrast catheter inlet (not shown) through which the contrast catheter is movably disposed within the outer sheath and is capable of moving synchronously with the pusher member 22. The angiographic catheter can be imaged with medical images to facilitate the physician in confirming the positioning of the anti-embolic protection device 10 and delivery mechanism 20 during the surgical procedure.

The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.

The above-mentioned embodiments only represent some embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is specific and detailed, but not to be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.
