Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
A self-expandable stent is used for the improvement of the stenosis or occlusion in the living body such as blood vessels, bile ducts, organs, esophagus, and urethra. The self-expanding stent is formed in a cylindrical shape as a whole by a metal wire or the like, and is expandable in a living body tube.
The basic approach to the delivery of a self-expanding stent typically involves pushing the stent in a distal direction through a sleeve or microcatheter until the stent emerges from the distal end of the sleeve or microcatheter at the desired location within the vasculature of the patient, Thereby advancing the stent through the sleeve or microcatheter.
The conventional method of delivering the stent was to insert the catheter into the human body and position it as a stenosed lesion, and then the operator manually manipulated the catheter to deploy the stent. However, there is a disadvantage that it is difficult to precisely maintain the position of the catheter tip while the practitioner applies a momentary large force to the catheter with both hands to deploy the stent.
The present invention provides a magnetic pulley device for mounting a stent capable of expanding a stent wirelessly using an external magnetic field.
The present invention also provides a magnetic pulley device for mounting a stent capable of precisely controlling the deployment of a stent by controlling an external magnetic field.
A magnetic pulley device for mounting a stent according to the present invention is provided with a long length in one direction, and a body into which the stent is inserted; A stent lid surrounding the body region into which the stent is inserted; And a stent lid moving part including a magnet rotatable by an external magnetic field and moving the stent cover relative to the stent in a longitudinal direction of the body using a rotating force of the magnet.
In addition, the rotation axis of the magnet may be disposed perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the body.
The magnet may include N and S poles each having a semicircular cross section, and the N poles and the S poles may be symmetrically connected to each other to have a cylindrical shape.
The stent cover moving unit may include a moving pulley coupled to the stent cover, A stationary pulley coupled to the magnet; And a wire connecting the moving pulley and the fixed pulley and wound around the fixed pulley in accordance with the rotation of the magnet.
Further, the fixed pulley is a rotation center coinciding with the rotation axis of the magnet; And an outer circumferential surface having a predetermined radius from the center of rotation, and the wire may be wound along the outer circumferential surface.
According to the present invention, the stent can be deployed wirelessly by controlling the magnetic pulley device inserted inside the human body through an external magnetic field outside the human body.
Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to precisely control the deployment of the stent by driving the magnetic pulley device by controlling the external magnetic field, not by the manual operation of the practitioner.

FIG. 5 shows a principle of magnetic field generation according to a coil system. The coil system has a cylindrical structure such as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, and the human body is located axially in a cylindrical interior, that is, a workspace.
The coil system can control the magnetic field generated in the central region where the human body is located by controlling the current applied to the coils constituting each pair (HC, USCy, USCz), and the magnet can be driven through the magnetic field control.
In the case of a coil system, the three coil pairs can generate a magnetic field in a direction orthogonal to one another in the work space, which means that a magnetic field in a three-dimensional random direction can be generated in the work space. Therefore, a rotating magnetic field can be generated by controlling the current applied to each of the coils, which can be expressed by the following equation.
Equation (1)
Equation (2)
Equation (1) is a formula representing the relationship of the magnetic field with the current, number of turns, and axial radius of each coil, and Equation (2) is a mathematical expression of a magnetic field rotating in an arbitrary direction as shown in FIG. Therefore, the axis of the desired rotating magnetic field
