Description

自膨胀假体的输送装置及自膨胀心脏瓣膜假体的输送装置 技术领域
本发明涉及医疗器械技术领域,特别涉及一种自膨胀假体的输送装置及自膨胀心脏瓣膜假体的输送装置。
背景技术
经导管主动脉瓣膜植入术具有创伤小、恢复快等优点,为许多被判死刑的患者推开了继续生存的窗口。新世纪瓣膜病介入治疗的研究工作明显加速,经皮介入瓣膜植入术已经由实验研究发展到了小规模临床并行的研究阶段。瓣膜病介入有望突破技术上的瓶颈,迅速实现广泛的临床应用,成为介入心脏病学领域的关注焦点。
然而现有的介入心脏瓣膜置换术在实际临床中,还存在诸多问题。例如人工心脏瓣膜在病变位置没有完全释放时,手术实施者发现瓣膜释放位置不够理想,需要回收瓣膜重新定位释放。瓣膜在体内回收时,没有装载工具等辅助器具的协助,管材尤其是压握瓣膜的鞘管部分需要克服很大的阻力,这就要求鞘管部分具有极高的抗拉、抗压能力,同时压握瓣膜的鞘管部分需要通过主动脉弓等这样的大迂回通路,这就要求鞘管部分需具有良好的弯曲性能。如何平衡鞘管的这两个对立的性能,成为业内难题。
目前临床使用或可见的报道中,瓣膜输送装置压握瓣膜的鞘管主要由高分子材料和金属材料制成。高分子材料制成的鞘管具有良好的弯曲性能,但是抗拉抗压能力低,无法做到瓣膜回收,重新定位释放。金属材料制成的鞘管是为了使输送装置具有回收瓣膜的功能,其高的抗拉抗压能力通常是利用其两侧的加强筋获得的,这样的结构设计虽然提高了抗拉抗压能力,但是却极大的牺牲掉了空间立体弯曲性能,即只能在一个平面方向弯曲,相互垂直的平面方向不能弯曲,然而主动脉弓等是具有空间立体弯曲的通路,因此这种金属材质鞘管在过主动脉弓时极易刺穿血管,给临床手术带来极大的风险。
针对现有的瓣膜输送装置的不足,本领域技术人员一直在寻找解决的方法。

具体实施方式
以下结合附图和具体实施例对本发明提出的自膨胀假体的输送装置作进一步详细说明。根据下面说明和权利要求书,本发明的优点和特征将更清楚。需说明的是,附图均采用非常简化的形式且均使用非精准的比例,仅用以方便、明晰地辅助说明本发明实施例的目的。
在本发明中,所述的“近端”、“近侧”是指靠近操作者的一端,相应的,“远端”、“远侧”是指远离操作者的一端。例如,在整个输送装置中,锥形头为导管的最远端,导管与手柄的连接处为导管的最近端。
图1为本发明的自膨胀假体的输送装置的结构示意图,如图1所示,所述自膨胀假体的输送装置包括:导管1和与所述导管1连接的手柄5;其中,如图2所示,所述导管1包括:依次套接的内导管10、内侧外导管20、外侧外导管30及稳定管40;所述自膨胀假体3的状态包括压缩状态、半释放状态和释放状态;所述内导管10用于承载处于压缩状态的自膨胀假体3;所述内侧外导管20可以相对于所述内导管10移动,且包括远端部分和近端部分,所述远端部分用于驱使自膨胀假体3从半释放状态压缩至压缩状态;所述外侧外导管30可以相对于所述内导管10移动,且包括远端组件和近端组件,所述远端组件用于束缚自膨胀假体3,以维持其压缩状态;所述远端组件弯曲性能强于所述远端部分的弯曲性能,所述远端部分的抗拉抗压性能强于所述远端组件的抗拉抗压性能;所述稳定管与所述内导管保持相对静止。
进一步,内导管10的近端与所述手柄5固定连接;所述稳定管40套接于所述外侧外导管30的外侧并与所述手柄5固定连接,以增强导管1在自膨胀假体3进行回收或释放过程中的稳定性及安全性。所述自膨胀假体例如为自膨胀心脏瓣膜假体,更具体为主动脉瓣膜假体、二尖瓣瓣膜假体或三尖瓣瓣膜假体。
本实施例的输送装置应用过程中,在所述手柄5、所述内导管10和所述外侧外导管30的配合作用下,可以实现对所述自膨胀假体3进行释放;在所述手柄5、所述内导管10和所述内侧外导管20的配合作用下,可以对处于半释放状 态的自膨胀假体进行再次压缩回收,以便进行重新释放,满足释放位置最佳的需求,减少释放后位置偏差造成的不良影响。具体的,输送自膨胀假体时,处于压缩状态的自膨胀假体被承载于所述内导管10上并被所述外侧外导管30所束缚;处于压缩状态的自膨胀假体被输送至目标位置附近时,所述外侧外导管30的近端组件相对所述内侧外导管20的近端部分移动,使得处于压缩状态的自膨胀假体处于半释放状态;待所述自膨胀假体被输送至目标位置时,所述外侧外导管30的近端组件相对所述内侧外导管20的近端部分回撤,使得处于半释放状态的自膨胀假体进一步释放直至完全处于释放状态。
请参考图4,其为本发明一实施例中内导管10的结构示意图。所述内导管10包括:依次连接的第一细长轴101、固定头102、第二细长轴104和锥形头103,所述第一细长轴101远离所述固定头102的一端与所述手柄5固定连接,所述第一细长轴101起固定支撑作用;输送自膨胀假体3时,处于压缩状态的自膨胀假体3被承载于所述第二细长轴104上,且自膨胀假体3的近端与所述固定头102可拆卸式连接。
其中,如图5所示,所述固定头102具体包括一主体102a及至少一个凸起部件102b。例如自膨胀假体为人工心脏瓣膜假体时,人工心脏瓣膜假体包括人工心脏瓣膜支架、瓣膜和裙边,其中人工心脏瓣膜支架包括支架主体和与所述支架主体连接的挂耳。通过将挂耳挂接于凸起部件102b上的方式,将人工心脏瓣膜与所述固定头102可拆卸式连接。其中,所有凸起部件102b均与所述主体102a弹性连接。具体的,每个凸起部件102b通过弹性结构与所述主体102a弹性连接,以使所述凸起部件102b可沿所述主体102a的径向进行伸缩运动,以利于在内侧外导管20和外侧外导管30相对内导管10进行移动时防止自膨胀假体产生脱钩现象。
此外,为了便于所述内侧外导管20向锥形头103方向移动时,顺利通过固定头,以束缚自膨胀假体。优选的,每个所述凸起部件102b的近端外侧都具有导向面102c。
请参考图6,其为本发明一实施例中内侧外导管20的结构示意图。所述内侧外导管20的近端部分包括第三细长轴201,所述内侧外导管20的远端部分包 括金属鞘管202,所述第三细长轴201与所述金属鞘管202连接,所述第三细长轴201远离所述金属鞘管202的一端与所述手柄5连接,且可在所述手柄5的驱动下移动,从而使得所述第三细长轴201可沿内导管10的轴向运动,且所述第三细长轴201被配置为不能径向旋转运动。优选的,所述第三细长轴201的材质为高分子材料或金属。由于金属材料制成的鞘管具有较高的抗拉和抗压能力,在金属鞘管202的作用下可以对自膨胀假体进行径向压握,因此,本实施例的内侧外导管20满足自膨胀假体的回收的需求。本发明对金属鞘管202的金属材料和制备方法的选择没有特别的限制,采用本领域现有的任一材料、任一制备方法即可。优选,采用镍钛合金通过编织或者切割的方法制备金属鞘管202。
其中,至少部分所述金属鞘管202呈镂空结构,优选的,所述镂空结构中的镂空部呈交替排列或者或螺纹排列,使金属鞘管202的抗压和抗拉能力降低,但其弯曲性能有所提高(即:牺牲部分抗压和抗拉能力,改善弯曲性)。这里的“交替排列”应理解为在轴向上包括有多排镂空部,每排镂空部由周向上均匀分布的多个镂空重复单元组成,相邻两排镂空部的镂空重复单元错开设置,位于同一平行于轴向的直线上的相邻两个镂空重复单元之间间隔一排镂空部,其中每个镂空重复单元可以包括一个或多个镂空单元。这里的“螺纹排列”应理解为在轴向上包括有多排镂空部,每排镂空部至少由一个镂空重复单元组成,从轴向投影每个镂空重复单元与相邻排的镂空重复单元之间重叠或呈一定角度,其中每个镂空重复单元可以包括一个或多个镂空单元。如此,金属鞘管202可在外侧外导管30的保护下进出主动脉弓等曲率半径小的通路,避免内侧外导管20过立体弯曲通路时与血管的接触刺破血管的风险;与此同时,内侧外导管20的金属鞘管202作用于自膨胀假体时,可满足对于装载和回收自膨胀假体时对于性能的需求。
请参考图7,其为本发明一实施例中套设有稳定管40的外侧外导管30的结构示意图。所述外侧外导管30的近端组件包括第四细长轴301,所述外侧外导管30的远端组件包括高分子鞘管302,所述第四细长轴301与高分子鞘管302连接,所述第四细长轴301远离所述高分子鞘管302的一端与所述手柄5连接,且可在所述手柄5的驱动下移动,使得所述第四细长轴301可沿内导管10的轴 向运动,且所述第四细长轴301被配置为不能径向旋转运动。高分子材料制备的鞘管具有良好的弯曲性能,尤其可空间立体弯曲,因此,本实施例的外侧外导管30可满足自膨胀假体的释放需求。本发明对高分子鞘管302的高分子材料和制备方法的选择没有特别的限制,采用本领域现有的任一材料、任一制备方法即可。优选,采用PEBA、PA、PU、TPE材料通过挤出成型的方法制备高分子鞘管302。本实施例中,稳定管40作用与现有技术中的稳定管作用类似,例如可以防止外管直接暴露在血管中在外管移动时损伤血管。因此,本实施例中的稳定管可以采用任一现有的稳定管。
请参考图3,其为本发明一实施例中手柄的剖面示意图。所述手柄5包括:壳体51和位于所述壳体51中的第一控制机构和第二控制机构,所述内导管10的近端、所述稳定管40的近端分别与所述壳体51固定连接,所述第一控制机构用于控制所述内侧外导管20的运动;所述第二控制机构用于控制所述外侧外导管30的运动,基于第一控制机构和第二控制机构的配合,可以实现自膨胀假体的从半释放状态至压缩状态,或者从压缩状态至半释放乃至释放状态,简化了操作过程。具体控制原理请结合后续关于第一控制机构和第二控制机构的具体结构进行理解。
继续参考图3,所述壳体51包括:第一壳体510、第二壳体511和第三壳体512,所述第一控制结构位于所述第一壳体510和所述第二壳体511之间,所述第二控制结构位于所述第二壳体511和所述第三壳体512之间,所述内导管10的近端与所述第一壳体510固定连接,所述稳定管40的近端与所述第三壳体512固定连接。
所述第一控制机构包括:第一螺纹滑块504,第一螺纹旋钮505和第一锁紧部件506;所述第一螺纹旋钮505被限制于所述第一壳体510和所述第二壳体511之间,并可绕所述手柄的轴线进行旋转运动(即所述第一螺纹旋钮505被配置为可沿所述手柄5的周向旋转,但不能轴向移动);所述第一螺纹滑块504被配置为与所述内侧外导管20固定连接,并在所述第一螺纹旋钮505的驱动下沿所述手柄5的轴向移动;所述第一锁紧部件506用于限制所述第一螺纹旋钮505的旋转运动(即第一锁紧部件506可以决定第一螺纹旋钮505是否可以进行旋 转运动)。
其中,所述第一螺纹旋钮505具有第一螺纹腔体(所述第一螺纹腔体的体壁上具有内螺纹),所述第一螺纹滑块504容置于所述第一螺纹腔体中并与所述第一螺纹旋钮505的螺纹连接(即所述第一螺纹滑块504具有与所述第一螺纹腔体的体壁上内螺纹相匹配的外螺纹),所述第一螺纹滑块504套接并固定于所述内侧外导管20的外侧(具体为所述第一螺纹滑块504套接并固定于第三细长轴201远离所述金属鞘管202的一端);所述第一锁紧部件506设置于所述第一螺纹旋钮505和所述第二壳体511之间并可沿所述手柄5的轴向进行前后移动,驱使所述第一螺纹旋钮505与所述第二壳体511分离或结合;其中,在所述第一螺纹旋钮505与所述第二壳体511分离时,所述第一螺纹旋钮505可以绕所述手柄5的轴向作旋转;在所述第一螺纹旋钮505与所述第二壳体511结合时,所述第一螺纹旋钮505和所述第二壳体511相当于一个整体(此时,所述第一锁紧部件506用于固定第一螺纹旋钮505的位置,进而制动第一螺纹滑块504),两者不存在相对运动。
较佳的,为了使得第一螺纹滑块504只能沿手柄5的轴向移动而不能围绕手柄的轴线进行旋转,所述输送装置还设置有一对轴向平行于手柄5的轴向的导向机构507,所述导向机构507的一端与所述第一壳体510连接,另一端延伸通过所述第一螺纹滑块504,并与所述第二壳体511固定连接,以限制所述第一螺纹滑块504的旋转运动。如图8所示,所述第一螺纹滑块504沿其轴向开设有第一通孔、第二通孔和第三通孔,第一通孔为中心孔,所述内侧外导管20穿过所述第一通孔并固定于第一螺纹滑块504上,所述内导管10从内侧外导管20穿过并被固定于第一壳体510上,两个导向机构507分别贯穿第二通孔和第三通孔并被固定于第一壳体510、第二壳体511上,第一螺纹滑块504只能沿两个导向机构507移动,从而限制了第一螺纹滑块504发生旋转。
由于第一螺纹滑块504与第一螺纹旋钮505相互螺纹配合,且第一螺纹滑块504套接并固定于所述内侧外导管20的外侧,因此,当顺时针或逆时针旋转第一螺纹旋钮505时,会带动第一螺纹滑块504前进或后退(沿手柄5的轴向移动,将旋转运动转化为水平移动),进而带动内侧外导管20前进或后退。
所述第二控制机构包括:第二螺纹滑块501、第二螺纹旋钮502和第二锁紧部件503;所述第二螺纹旋钮502被限制于所述第二壳体511和所述第三壳体512之间,且所述第二螺纹旋钮502被配置为可沿所述手柄5的周向(即绕所述手柄的轴线)旋转,但不能轴向移动。
所述第二螺纹滑块501被配置为与所述外侧外导管30固定连接,并在所述第二螺纹旋钮502的驱动下沿所述手柄5的轴向移动;所述第二锁紧部件503用于限制所述第二螺纹旋钮502的旋转运动。
所述第二螺纹旋钮502具有第二螺纹腔体,所述第二螺纹腔体的内壁上具有内螺纹,所述第二螺纹滑块501延伸通过所述第二螺纹腔体后与所述外侧外导管30连接,且所述第二螺纹滑块501设有外螺纹以与所述第二螺纹旋钮502螺纹连接。具体而言,所述第二螺纹滑块501的外壁上具有与所述第二螺纹腔体的内壁上的内螺纹相匹配的外螺纹,所述第二螺纹滑块501套接固定于所述外侧外导管30的第四细长轴301近端的外侧,形成一装配管。进一步,所述的装配管延伸通过所述第三壳体512的体腔,然后容纳于稳定管中,并延伸至远端。所述第二锁紧部件503设置于所述第二螺纹旋钮502和所述第二壳体511之间并可沿所述手柄5的轴向进行前后移动,驱使所述第二螺纹旋钮502与所述第二壳体511分离或结合。在所述第二螺纹旋钮502与所述第二壳体511分离时,所述第二螺纹旋钮502可以绕手柄5的轴线旋转;在所述第二螺纹旋钮502与所述第二壳体511结合时,所述第二螺纹旋钮502和所述第二壳体511相当于一个整体(此时,所述第二锁紧部件503用于固定第二螺纹旋钮502的位置,进而制动第二螺纹滑块501),两者不存在相对运动。
较佳地,所述第三壳体512的内壁上开设有沿所述壳体轴向分布的限转动凹槽(图中未画出),所述第二螺纹滑块501的外侧设置有与所述限转动凹槽相配合的限转动凸起件,所述限转动凸起件可沿所述限转动凹槽进行前后移动。所述限转动凹槽起到限制导向的作用,使得所述第二螺纹滑块501只能沿手柄5的轴向移动不能绕手柄5轴线周向旋转。
由于第二螺纹滑块501与第二螺纹旋钮502相互啮合,且所述第二螺纹滑块501的一端与所述外侧外导管30固定连接,因此,当顺时针或逆时针旋转第 二螺纹旋钮502时,会带动第二螺纹滑块501前进或后退(沿手柄5的轴向移动,将旋转运动转化为水平移动),进而带动外侧外导管30前进或后退。
请参考图9a和图9b,图9a为本实施例中第一锁紧部件的主视图;图9b为本实施例中第二锁紧部件的主视图。
所述第一锁紧部件506包括:第一按钮部分506a、第一卡扣部分506b和连接所述第一按钮部分506a和所述第一卡扣部分506b的第一连接部分506c。结合图3所示,所述第一按钮部分506a布置于所述第二壳体511近端外侧,并可沿所述第二壳体511的轴向移动,所述第一连接部分506c从第二壳体511外部延伸进入第二壳体511内部,所述第一卡扣部分506a位于第一连接部分506c靠近第一螺纹旋钮505的端面并向所述第一螺纹旋钮505方向延伸(换言之,所述第一卡扣部分506a朝向第一螺纹旋钮505的端面)。所述第一按钮部分506a可沿所述第二壳体511的轴向移动,驱使所述第一卡扣部分506b与临近的所述第一对接凹槽分离或结合。优选的,所述第一卡扣部分506b两侧还设有第一稳定部分,所述稳定部分为弧状,以与第二壳体511近端的内壁配合,以增加第一锁紧部件轴向移动的稳定性。
所述第二锁紧部件503和第一锁紧部件506相似,包括:第二按钮部分503a、第二卡扣部分503b和连接所述第二按钮部分503a和所述第二卡扣部分503b的第二连接部分503c。区别在于,所述第二按钮部分503a布置于所述第二壳体511远端外侧并可沿所述第二壳体511的轴向移动,所述第二连接部分503c从第二壳体511外部延伸进入第二壳体511内部,所述第二卡扣部分503a位于连接部分503c靠近第二螺纹旋钮502的端面并向所述第二螺纹旋钮502方向延伸(即所述第二卡扣部分503a朝向第二螺纹旋钮502的端面)。
本实施例中,所述第一螺纹旋钮505与所述第一锁紧部件506相邻的端面的周向上设置有多个第一对接凹槽;所述第二螺纹旋钮502与所述第二锁紧部件503相邻的端面的周向上设置有多个第二对接凹槽,所述第一卡扣部分506a,第二卡扣部分503a分别与其临近的端面上的对接凹槽相匹配。
具体的,请参考图10,其为第二锁紧部件503与第二壳体511装配时的主视图。所述卡扣部分503a背离所述第二壳体511的端面。
请参考图11和图12,图11为第二锁紧部件503装配于第二螺纹旋钮和第二壳体之间时的立体视图;图12为图11的剖面图。所述第二按钮部分503a布置于所述第二壳体511远端的外侧,并可沿所述第二壳体511的轴向移动。所述第二连接部分503c从所述第二壳体511的外侧通过第二壳体511上的一凹槽,径向延伸至所述第二壳体511的内侧,所述第二卡扣部分506b两侧还设有第二稳定部分,所述稳定部分为弧状,以与第二壳体511远端的内壁配合。所述第二卡扣部分503a位于所述第二连接部分503c背离所述第二壳体511的端面,并朝向第二螺纹旋钮502的方向延伸。所述第二卡扣部分503a与第二螺纹旋钮502的端面上设置的第二对接凹槽卡接。
为了较好的理解本发明的自膨胀假体的输送装置的工作原理,下面以主动脉瓣膜假体为例,结合图2、图4、图6及图7详细阐述主动脉瓣膜假体的装载、释放和回收再释放的过程。
这里的“压缩状态”是指为了使自膨胀假体顺利通过人体管状器官(例如血管)进入目标位置,通过径向外力等手段使自膨胀假体处于径向被压缩的状态;
“释放状态”是指自膨胀假体到达目标位置,撤去外部束缚后,在目标位置展开的状态;
“半释放状态”是指自膨胀假体的一部分不再受到径向约束力开始展开,而另一部分仍然被束缚压缩的状态。
主动脉瓣膜假体的装载过程,即将释放状态的瓣膜假体压握为压缩状态的瓣膜假体:
主动脉瓣膜假体的装载是在体外冰水浴中并借助装载工具等辅助手段进行的。因此,使用外侧外导管30中的高分子鞘管302就可以很好的将压缩状态的主动脉瓣膜假体压握在固定头102与锥形头103之间的第二细长轴104上,此时,将金属鞘管202置于固定头102的后侧(金属鞘管202并未覆盖人工心脏瓣膜)。
借助装载工具将主动脉瓣膜假体的挂耳固定在固定头102的凸起部件102b上,正向旋转(顺时针或逆时针)第二螺纹旋钮502,使高分子鞘管302在第二 螺纹旋钮502的旋转作用下被推进,直至高分子鞘管302完全覆盖压缩状态的主动脉瓣膜假体并与锥形头103贴合,主动脉瓣膜假体的装载完毕。
主动脉瓣膜假体释放和回收再释放过程,即将压缩状态的瓣膜假体转化为半释放状态/释放状态的瓣膜假体:
本发明的核心思想:在主动脉弓等这样大迂回通路区域,为保证压缩状态的自膨胀假体的鞘管能顺利过弓,通常鞘管为了获取好的弯曲性能而牺牲掉抗压和抗拉能力,而自膨胀假体在体内释放一部分后变成半释放状态,由于释放位置不佳等诸多原因需要再次回收压握成压缩状态。此时外管尤其是鞘管部分需要很大的抗压能力。一般的材料或结构很难平衡管材的弯曲性能与抗拉、抗压之间的要求,因此需要在不同时间或者空间上使用不同性能的方法进而去解决这种矛盾。
请参考图2,输送装置过主动脉弓时,压缩状态的主动脉瓣膜假体是由外侧外导管30上的高分子鞘管302束缚的。此时,金属鞘管202位于固定头102后侧,高分子鞘管302具有良好的弯曲性能,并且可空间立体弯曲,因此可以确保输送装置安全过弓。
主动脉瓣膜假体到达指定病变位置后,反向旋转(相比人工心脏瓣膜的装载时旋转方向而言)第二螺纹旋钮502,回撤高分子鞘管302以释放主动脉瓣膜假体。主动脉瓣膜假体从流入道部分开始逐步释放,主动脉瓣膜假体由压缩状态转变为半释放状态,即主动脉瓣膜假体的一部分(例如流出道部分)不再受到束缚开始展开,而另一部分(例如流入道部分)仍然被高分子鞘管302所束缚被压缩。当主动脉瓣膜假体释放部分时,如果手术实施者发现主动脉瓣膜假体释放位置不理想,需要收回主动脉瓣膜假体重新调整释放位置。回收主动脉瓣膜假体,需要将主动脉瓣膜假体从半释放状态重新压握成压缩状态。这需要克服很大的阻力,因此需要使用抗压和抗拉能力更大的金属鞘管202回收压握。具体过程如下:
首先,推动第二锁紧部件503来制动外侧外导管30中的高分子鞘管302,正向旋转第一螺纹旋钮505,使金属鞘管202在第一螺纹旋钮505的旋转作用下被向远端推进,直至金属鞘管202压握主动脉瓣膜假体,将主动脉瓣膜假体从 半释放状态重新压握成压缩状态。虽然,金属鞘管202弯曲性能较差,但是其外侧有外侧外导管30的保护,避免过立体弯曲通路时与血管的接触刺破血管的风险;同时由于固定头102的凸起部件102b与固定头102的主体102a弹性连接,使所述凸起部件102b可沿所述主体102a的径向进行伸缩运动,可确保金属鞘管202顺利通过固定头102和高分子鞘管302贴合处。
接着,当主动脉瓣膜假体被完全压握在金属鞘管202内后,推动第一锁紧部件506来制动金属鞘管202,解除第二锁紧部件503对高分子鞘管302的制动,正向旋转第二螺纹旋钮502,推动高分子鞘管302前进至远端,以完全覆盖主动脉瓣膜假体。
接着,推动第二锁紧部件503制动高分子鞘管302,解除第一锁紧部件506对金属鞘管202的制动,反向旋转第一螺纹旋钮505,向近端撤回金属鞘管202。在金属鞘管202通过固定头102时,由于固定头102的凸起部件102b与固定头102的主体102a弹性连接,使所述凸起部件102b可沿所述主体102a的径向进行伸缩运动,可确保金属鞘管202顺利通过而不至于产生主动脉瓣膜假体脱钩现象。
最后,当金属鞘管202顺利回撤后,推动第一锁紧部件506制动金属鞘管202。在寻找到合适的释放位置后,解除第二锁紧部件503对高分子鞘管302的制动,即可重新定位再次释放主动脉瓣膜假体。
综上,在本发明所提供的自膨胀假体的输送装置中,所述自膨胀假体的输送装置包括导管和与导管连接的手柄,导管包括依次套接的内导管、内侧外导管、外侧外导管及稳定管;内导管用于承载处于压缩状态的自膨胀假体,内侧外导管的远端部分用于驱使自膨胀假体从半释放状态压缩至压缩状态;外侧外导管的远端组件用于束缚自膨胀假体,以维持其压缩状态;远端组件弯曲性能强于远端部分的弯曲性能,远端部分的抗拉、抗压性能强于远端组件的抗拉、抗压性能;所述稳定管与所述内导管保持相对静止。基于外侧外导管能够进行自膨胀假体进行释放;基于内侧外导管能够将处于半释放状态的自膨胀假体进行再次压缩回收,以便进行重新释放;因此,本发明的同一装置能够兼具自膨胀假体回收和释放两个功能。
进一步地,由于内侧外导管有套接于其外侧的外侧外导管保护,避免内侧外导管过立体弯曲通路时与血管的接触刺破血管的风险。
另一方面,将内侧外导管制备为部分呈镂空结构的金属鞘管,从而在牺牲部分掉抗压和抗拉能力的基础上获得一定的弯曲性能,从而确保输送装置可安全通过空间立体弯曲的通路,提升了整个装置的安全性能。
上述描述仅是对本发明较佳实施例的描述,并非对本发明范围的任何限定,本发明领域的普通技术人员根据上述揭示内容做的任何变更、修饰,均属于权利要求书的保护范围。例如,上述实施例中,外侧外导管采用纯高分子材料制备,内侧外导管采用纯金属材料制备,但是本领域技术人员应理解,外侧外导管和/或内侧外导管不限于采用以上材料制备,可以采用其他适用的材料,例如复合材料制备,具体而言,采用编织加强筋或者螺旋加强筋方法制备。
