DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (a) Technical Field The present invention relates to an artificial heart valve that has excellent antithrombotic properties and can withstand long-term use.

(b) Technical background When the heart valves stop functioning due to diseases such as valvular heart disease,
Artificial heart valves have been widely used to assist smooth blood circulation.

現在の人工心臓弁は大きく分けて■生体弁と■非きた。Current artificial heart valves can be broadly divided into two types: biological valves and non-biological valves.

Bioprosthetic valves may lose their function in a relatively short period of time due to lime deposits. On the other hand, thrombosis is a problem with non-prosthetic valves. Pyrolyte carphone was developed as the ultimate material for non-biological valves and is now widely used. However, the following problems have been pointed out with this valve. (1) Sound is generated when the valve opens and closes. (11) Blood flow changes rapidly and stress is applied to blood vessels and valves, which may damage the valves. (iii) Thrombosis occurs in the attachment area.

To solve these problems, it is also possible to make a so-called tricuspid valve, which has fundamentally improved valve drawing, from a flexible material. In this case, the material has antithrombotic properties. Although devised polymeric materials (such as polyurethane-based materials) have been used, it is difficult to say that problems such as calcification have been completely solved.

B1) Disclosure of the Invention The present invention is proposed to solve the various existing problems mentioned above. The present invention is based on a material made of a polymeric material and coated with diamond or amorphous carbon.
↓It is used as a valve. Diamond or amorphous carbon films are currently known to be obtained by vapor deposition using ionized hydrocarbon gas. plasma CVD
Nimo crystalline diamond and amorphous carbon can be produced by any method such as ion beam evaporation, ion beam evaporation, or sputtering, but a composition in which these are mixed also has i+J properties.

The flexibility of the base material of the present invention compensates for some of the deficiencies of the Pyrolite Cleft Artificial 11iA valve described above. When using a butterfly type artificial heart made of pyrolite, such as the Kura valve, it is possible to prevent noise and damage to the valve, and not only the antithrombotic properties are improved, but also the implantation fittings are made of polymeric material. This also improves overall biocompatibility. Of course, the present invention is particularly effective when used as a tricuspid valve. In order to realize the present invention, a step of vapor depositing diamond or diamond-like carbon is required, but the effectiveness of this method is the same regardless of the known methods such as ion beam vapor deposition, high frequency decomposition, and CVD. . However, in order not to damage the base polymer material itself, it goes without saying that a method that does not heat the base material to high temperatures is suitable.The base polymer material has excellent elemental biocompatibility. is preferred.

This is because it is thought that even if the diamond or diamond-like carbon has some kind of loss of 1 vJ due to long-term use, it is better not to suddenly impede the use of the valve. Therefore, polyurethane, silicone, Zyklon, etc. are suitable.

- The present invention was made by coating each component of this polyurethane with an amorphous carbon film of about 25 μm using a high-frequency decomposition method using C2'H6 gas. These were implanted into the heart of a sheep and tested for durability. 13-3 made of pyrolite carbon
Blood flow disturbance due to thrombus occurred when the valve was used for 11E+. This is because no preventive agent against blood clots was used, and this is a problem that has been pointed out in the past. It appeared to be caused by thrombus formation from around the valve. On the other hand, a valve made only of polyurethane developed blood flow disturbance due to calcium deposits after 25 days of use. On the other hand, the product of the present invention had no problems even after 120 days of use, and the noise generated when opening and closing the valve was almost negligible compared to the B-5 valve made of pyrolite carbon.
