Description
一部の実施形態では、先端チップが、第1および第2管状部材の少なくとも一方に固定される。
一部の実施形態では、前記方法はさらに、第1および第2管状部材の管腔の少なくとも一方にマンドレルを配置することを含む。
一部の実施形態では、少なくとも1つの凹部領域は、キャビティの周りで円周方向に延在する溝を含む。
一部の実施形態では、型は、型に沿って軸方向に離間した複数の凹部領域を含む。
一部の実施形態では、型は、第1および第2管状部材が型内に配置されると、第1および第2管状部材が、互いに対して軸方向に相対移動することを実質的に防止するように構成される。
一部の実施形態では、樹脂は、第1および第2管状部材の溶融温度より高い溶融温度を有する。
一部の実施形態では、前記方法はさらに、第1および第2管状部材の溶融温度より低い温度に型を加熱すること、および、樹脂が冷却されて固化する前に、型のキャビティ内に樹脂を急速に注入することを含む。
一部の実施形態では、前記方法はさらに、医療器具の所定の領域に中間管状部材を配設することを含む。医療器具の所定の領域は、医療器具の使用中においては体内管の所定の領域内に配置される。
一部の実施形態では、体内管の所定の領域は、大動脈と冠状動脈が接続される領域を含む。
一部の実施形態では、中間管状部材は、第1および第2管状部材の少なくとも一方の硬度より高い硬度を有する。
一部の実施形態では、前記方法はさらに、第1および第2管状部材のそれぞれの少なくとも1つの端領域から材料を除去することを含む。端領域はそれぞれ、材料を除去した後に、医療器具の長手方向軸線に対して鋭角をなして延在する表面を含む。
一部の実施形態では、医療器具は、医療器具の先端領域に固定された可撓性を有する先端チップを含む。
一部の実施形態では、基端側および先端側管状部材の一方が金属を含み、他方がポリマー材料を含む。
一部の実施形態では、中間管状部材は、中間管状部材の外面から延在する少なくとも1つの隆起形状部を含む。
一部の実施形態では、少なくとも1つの隆起形状部は、中間管状部材の周りに螺旋状に延在する。
一部の実施形態では、隆起形状部は、中間管状部材の基端側領域から中間管状部材の先端側領域に向かって間隔を次第に増大させることによって離間される。
一部の実施形態では、中間管状部材は、中間管状部材の基端側領域から中間管状部材の先端側領域に向かって硬度が減少する。
一部の実施形態では、中間管状部材は、基端側管状部材および先端側管状部材の両方の硬度より低い硬度を有する。
一部の実施形態では、中間管状部材は、基端側および先端側管状部材のうち少なくとも一方に化学的に接合される。
一部の実施形態では、中間管状部材は、医療器具の所定の領域に配置され、医療器具の所定の領域は、医療器具の使用中において体内管の所定の領域内に配置される。
実施形態は、以下の利点の1つまたは複数を含むことができる。
一部の実施形態では、医療器具は、適合性がない(たとえば、熱的に適合性がない)材料を含む基端側および先端側管状部材を含む。本明細書に記載される方法の実施形態は、こうした基端側および先端側管状部材が、たとえば、中間管状部材を介して互いに接続されることを可能にする。
例として、一部の実施形態では、中間要素125の可撓性がその長さに沿って変わる。たとえば、カテーテルの追従性を高めるために、中間要素125は、その基端から先端に向かって次第に可撓性を高くすることができる。中間要素125は、たとえば、入口通路145を介して送られる樹脂140の組成を変更することによって、中間要素125の長さに沿って次第に可撓性が高くなるように形成することができる。これに代えて、またはこれに加えて、中間要素125の壁を、中間要素の基端から先端に向かって次第に薄くすることができる。次第に薄くなる壁は、たとえば、空洞235および/またはマンドレル207の構成を変更することによって形成することができる。
(例1)
カテーテルシャフトを形成するために、ナイロン12から形成される基端側管状セグメントおよびPebax7033から形成される先端側管状セグメントが提供される。基端側管状セグメントは、約0.045インチ(約1.14ミリメートル)の外径および約0.038インチ(約0.965ミリメートル)の内径を有する。先端側管状セグメントは、約0.028インチ(約0.711ミリメートル)の外径および約0.024インチ(約0.610ミリメートル)の内径を有する。
