Definitions
- the present invention relates to a catheter, and more particularly to a catheter that is inserted into a lumen such as a blood vessel or a vascular vessel to acquire an image from the lumen.
- an ultrasonic catheter that transmits and receives ultrasonic waves in the affected part is used.
- the ultrasound catheter has an imaging core including a transducer unit for transmitting and receiving ultrasound and a drive shaft that rotates the transducer unit, and a sheath that incorporates the imaging core and is inserted into a lumen. ing.
- the imaging core is movable in the axial direction within the sheath.
- an introducer sheath for accessing the inside of the lumen is usually placed, and the guiding catheter is inserted into the lumen through the introducer sheath. Thereafter, the guide wire is inserted to the target position through the guiding catheter, and the ultrasonic catheter is inserted from the affected part to the deep part so as to be along the guide wire. Then, from the state in which the imaging core is disposed on the distal end side in the sheath, only the imaging core is retracted while leaving the sheath, and the affected part is passed. By retreating only the imaging core, the transducer unit moves from the deep part through the affected part, so it is possible to observe ultrasonic images continuously acquired before and after the affected part, and shapes such as blood vessels and vessels 3D data can be created.
- an ultrasonic catheter described in Patent Document 1 includes a nested structure that extends and contracts in the axial direction on the proximal end side of the sheath, and has the entire length of the catheter body. By changing, the imaging core inside the sheath is moved in the axial direction with respect to the sheath.
- connection part which can be connected and disconnected is provided between the sheath and the nesting structure in the ultrasonic catheter described in Patent Document 1, and the imaging core can be pulled out from the catheter body depending on the situation. It is possible.
- the ultrasonic catheter described in Patent Document 1 When inserted into a blood vessel, the ultrasonic catheter described in Patent Document 1 is rarely caught by a complicatedly curved blood vessel, a stenotic blood vessel, a stent embedded in the blood vessel, and the like. It may be difficult to pull it out from.
- the imaging core is removed from the sheath, and a medical device having rigidity higher than that of the imaging core, for example, a guide wire (hereinafter, abbreviated as “wire”) is inserted instead to facilitate the extraction of the sheath.
- a guide wire hereinafter, abbreviated as “wire”
- the connecting / disconnectable connecting portion is provided between the sheath and the nested structure, so the ultrasonic catheter is inserted into the guiding catheter.
- the connecting portion comes close to the Y connector connected to the proximal end side of the guiding catheter. Since the guide wire is also led out from the Y connector, the guide wire and the connecting portion interfere with each other, making it difficult for the guide wire to be pressed when operating the ultrasonic catheter, which may reduce the operability.
- connection portion since the connecting portion is close to the Y connector, blood flowing out from the connecting portion after the imaging core is taken out is illusioned with blood flowing out from the Y connector, which may cause an erroneous operation. Furthermore, since the connection portion is close to the Y connector, blood flowing out from the connection portion flows into the valve body provided in the Y connector from the outside, and the operability may be reduced.

Be placed. For this reason, even when it becomes difficult to pull out the catheter inside the blood vessel, the second connector can be disconnected without interfering with the guide wire led out from the insertion target, and is in a remote position. It becomes easy to hold down the guide wire, and the operability of the guide wire and the catheter is improved. In addition, since the second connector is separated from the insertion target across the outer tube, the blood flowing out of the second connector is less likely to be mistaken for blood flowing out of the insertion target, and from which is flowing out? Since it can be operated while checking, operability is improved.
- a protective tube that protrudes toward the tip side from the inner tube and accommodates the drive shaft and can be inserted into the outer tube and the sheath is provided, so that when the inner tube is pushed into and pulled out from the outer tube, When the drive shaft can be prevented from being bent by the protective tube, the second connector is separated from the first connector, and the protective tube is pulled out from the outer tube together with the hub and the inner tube, thereby inserting a wire or the like into the sheath. In addition, it is not necessary to insert a wire or the like through the protective tube, and the operability is improved.
- a locking portion having an enlarged outer diameter is provided at the distal end portion of the inner tube, the locking portion is caught by the second connector even when the inner tube is most pulled out from the outer tube in the proximal direction. , The inner tube can be prevented from coming off.

Furthermore, if the seal member closes the passage through which the protective tube and the drive shaft are inserted by pulling out the protective tube and the drive shaft, blood leakage through the lumen of the sheath is suppressed. Therefore, the safety is improved and the operability is improved by preventing blood from leaking to the operator. In addition, since the outer tube is provided on the proximal end side of the sheath connecting portion where the seal member is provided, blood leaked from the seal member does not reach the outside unless it passes through the outer tube. Blood leakage can be more reliably suppressed.
