Description

Ablation catheter device with mapping function

Technical Field

The utility model relates to a medical instrument, which belongs to the technical field of pulse ablation operation, in particular to an ablation catheter device with mapping function.

Background

Radio Frequency (RF) ablation and cryoablation are two common methods for treating arrhythmia such as severe atrial fibrillation in clinical practice. The success of ablation depends primarily on whether the ablation range is continuous and sufficient. The damage must be sufficient to destroy the arrhythmogenic tissue or to substantially interfere with or isolate abnormal electrical conduction within the myocardial tissue. Excessive ablation will have an effect on surrounding healthy tissue as well as on nerve tissue. The radiofrequency ablation can reach all positions of the anatomical structures of the heart, is suitable for arrhythmia including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrial velocity, ventricular premature, ventricular velocity and the like originated from pulmonary veins or non-pulmonary veins, has the defects of longer ablation operation time, higher requirement on the operation level of catheters of operators, pain during ablation due to thermal injury and easy pulmonary vein stenosis after operation. Application of radio frequency energy to target tissue has an effect on non-target tissue, application of radio frequency energy to atrial wall tissue may cause esophageal or phrenic nerve damage, and in addition radio frequency ablation has a risk of tissue scarring, further leading to embolization problems. And in the cryoablation, if the cryoballoon is tightly attached to the pulmonary vein, the annular ablation isolation can be completed once or several times, so that a patient does not feel pain and the operation time is shortened, but the damage rate of the cryoablation on the phrenic nerve is higher, and the method cannot timely confirm whether the ablation isolation is successfully completed, and the epicardial freezing near the coronary artery possibly causes thrombosis and progressive coronary artery stenosis.

Today, pulsed electric field technology is emerging, which applies brief high voltages to tissue cells, and can generate local high electric fields of several hundred volts per centimeter; the local high electric field disrupts the cell membrane by creating pores in the cell membrane where the applied electric field is above the cell threshold such that the pores do not close, and such electroporation is irreversible, thereby allowing biomolecular material to exchange across the membrane, resulting in cell necrosis or apoptosis. The irreversible electroporation of pulse is different from the physical therapy based on the principle of thermal ablation, such as radio frequency, refrigeration, microwave, ultrasound, etc., and the irreversible electroporation damage of microsecond pulse to the myocardial cell membrane is a non-thermal biological effect and can effectively avoid the damage of blood vessels, nerves and other tissues. Because different tissue cells have different threshold values for voltage penetration, the high-voltage pulse technology can be used for selectively treating the myocardial cells (the threshold value is relatively low) without influencing other non-target cell tissues (such as nerves, blood vessels and blood cells), and meanwhile, because the time for releasing energy is extremely short, the pulse technology cannot generate heat effect, so that the problems of tissue scabbing, pulmonary vein stenosis and the like are avoided.

In a similar technology, for example, chinese patent application publication No. CNCN 111248993 a, an irreversible electroporation (IRE) balloon catheter "with a membrane-insulated high-voltage balloon wire is disclosed. A medical probe is provided that includes a shaft and an inflatable balloon. The shaft is configured for insertion into an organ of a patient. The inflatable balloon is coupled to the distal end of the shaft, wherein the inflatable balloon comprises: (a) an inflatable membrane having an outer surface and an inner surface, wherein the inflatable membrane is configured to be inflated from a collapsed shape to a balloon-forming member, (b) a plurality of electrodes disposed on the outer surface of the inflatable membrane, (c) one or more wires connected to the plurality of electrodes, the wires extending from the distal end to the electrodes, (d) and an inflatable cover that encapsulates the wires between the inflatable cover and the inflatable membrane such that the wires are constrained between the cover and the inflatable membrane, but the electrodes are exposed to a surrounding environment.

The utility model application, assembles the inflatable balloon by assembling an inflatable membrane having an outer surface and an inner surface, wherein the inflatable membrane is configured to be inflated from a collapsed shape to a balloon-forming member. A plurality of electrodes is disposed on an outer surface of the inflatable membrane. The wires are connected to a plurality of electrodes, and an expandable cover is used to encapsulate the wires between the cover and the expandable membrane such that the wires are constrained between the cover and the expandable membrane, but the electrodes are exposed to the surrounding environment. An inflatable balloon is coupled to the distal end of the shaft. That is, since the wire cannot be directly introduced into the human tissue, the wire is covered with the expandable covering member and the electrode portion is leaked out to perform the impulse ablation operation, but there are disadvantages as follows: 1. the electrodes on the balloon are bonded on the surface of the balloon, and deformation and uneven spacing can be generated in the process of balloon expansion, so that the ablation effect is influenced. 2. The shape of the balloon and the position of the electrodes are not good for eliminating thrombus generated by atrial fibrillation. 3. The balloon and the annular gap of the inflatable covering piece are connected by glue, and the balloon needs to be folded and inflated and has certain pressure, so that the glue is easy to fall off, leak and the like. The hidden danger is very big on the instrument for interventional therapy of human body.

Chinese patent application publication No. CN110662483A, discloses a system, device and method for electroporation ablation therapy, wherein the device includes a set of splines coupled to a catheter for medical ablation therapy. Each spline of the set of splines may include a set of electrodes formed thereon. The set of splines may be configured for translation to transition between a first configuration and a second configuration. Each spline of the set of splines in the second configuration may be petal-shaped.

The ablation device of this patent application may contain one or more catheters, guidewires, balloons, and electrodes. The ablation device can be converted to different configurations (e.g., compact and expanded) that can be transformed into two states by controlling the retraction and retraction of the catheter guidewire. However, in the actual use process, the in-place property of the shape is difficult to control in the in-vivo switching process of the technology, the rigidity of the material and the structure is poor, the orientation and the angle of the electrode cannot be guaranteed, and often in use, one ablation part needs to be rotated for multiple times by an angle, multiple times of ablation is carried out in a trial mode, so that incomplete ablation and ablation omission are avoided. In addition, the technique has the following disadvantages: 1. in the operation process, because the conditions in the heart and the blood vessel are relatively complex, the state of the electrodes formed by the technology is uncertain, the effective and accurate ablation is difficult, and the angle and the position can only be changed by repeatedly rotating, so the ablation effect is greatly reduced. 2. Because the heart is in continuous shrink and diastole, relevant great vessel, also because the inflow of blood flows and is constantly beating, setting up under this scheme two kinds of states is unreasonable, cambered surface tissue such as the left atrium back wall of can not effectively laminating promptly, also can not effectively adapt to annular vascular tissue such as vena cava, and the structure and the columniform electrode design of this petal formula all can receive the influence under practical state, have further reduced and have melted the effect.
