Description

一种泪小管栓塞 技术领域
本公开涉及医疗器械领域,尤其涉及一种泪小管栓塞。
背景技术
干眼症,又称干眼、角结膜干燥症(Kersto conjunctivitis sicca,KCS),是一种由于全身或局部原因引起泪液功能障碍而导致的以角结膜干燥症状为主的一种常见的疾病。全球发病率很高,发病原因不完全清楚。但任何导致泪液生成和排出平衡失调及泪膜功能障碍均可引起干眼症。最常见的有系统性眼干燥综合征、屈光性角膜手术、眼前节烧伤、电脑辐射等。伴随着信息时代的到来,移动互联网的普及,人们接触电脑、手机的时间越来越长,干眼症也呈现逐年增加和低龄化的趋势。
干眼症是目前眼科临床的常见病与多发病。尤其是长期干眼患者,经常出现干燥、红眼、发痒、灼热、异物感、刺痛、流泪、畏光、视力下降、眼睛疲倦等症状,给患者带来极大的痛苦。重度干眼症将导致一系列的眼表疾病,如:角膜上皮缺损、结膜或角膜上皮变性、无菌性角膜溃疡、感染性角膜溃疡等。
目前轻度干眼症患者的治疗以保守治疗为主,保守治疗包括泪液代用品、促进泪液分泌和保存泪液等方法,如:1)人工泪液可通过湿润、润滑及营养角结膜,起到类似天然泪液的作用;2)利用药物(环孢霉素A,糖皮质激素,雄激素类固醇,溴苄环己胺,等)调节免疫功能促进泪腺组织及唾液腺组织分泌。
然而对中、重度干眼症患者,长期使用人工泪液后症状仍得不到缓解,则采用泪道阻塞的方法:即将细小的实心或管状栓塞放入泪小管内,截住泪液流向鼻泪管,使有限泪液在眼结膜囊中存留时间延长,一方面增加眼睛泪液的储 留,使自然泪液湿润角膜、结膜表面改善角膜表面,提供持久的滋润和保护作用,另一方面自然泪液富含免疫球蛋白和离子成分,维持电解质平衡,增加眼表防御能力。同时反作用于泪腺、结膜杯状细胞,促进泪液分泌及增加杯状细胞存活,增加泪膜的稳定性,同时提高了眼表面的抵抗外界微生物的能力。通过治疗,减轻和缓解了患者眼干症状,使角膜表面平滑,有利于泪膜功能恢复以促进角膜上皮修复。由于此方法操作简单、方便灵活,越来越普遍应用于临床治疗中、重度干眼症病患者。
临床使用的泪小管栓塞通常分为降解型和永久型(非降解型),而针对中、重度干眼症患者主要采用永久型的泪小管栓塞。
目前,永久型泪小管栓塞多采用硅胶材料。硅胶材料具有良好的生物相容性和生物稳定性,机械弹性好,且易于加工。但是,硅胶材料的制备过程中会有硅石(Silica),寡聚物(Oligomer),以及环装单体(cyclic monomer),这些杂质的长期存在会引起眼部异体反应(foreign body reaction)。
近年来,在永久型泪小管栓塞的制备中逐渐转向寻找采用其它新材料,大有取代传统有机硅材料的趋势。其中,美国Medennium公司采用具有热记忆功能的聚丙烯酸脂类共聚物,发明了智能永久型泪小管栓塞SmartPlug @,以及美国
Figure PCTCN2019095509-appb-000001
公司采用非降解型水凝胶发明了泪小管栓塞Form Fit Plug @。以上两种泪小管栓塞均为封闭型的泪小管栓塞。然而,泪道的完全阻塞将导致泪液无法对栓塞以下的泪小管、泪囊和鼻泪道进行浸润和冲洗。由于泪液中的抗菌成分无法抵达这些部位,大大增加了泪囊和泪鼻道炎症的发生几率,而且代谢后的泪水在栓塞上部泪小管的长期停留,会导致其中的微生物的大量繁殖,引发泪小管炎。
发明内容
本公开的目的是提供一种泪小管栓塞,使得泪液排出速度相对可控且避免 栓塞的滑脱,以满足缓解不同干眼症症状程度患者的长期需求。
本公开提供的技术方案如下:
一种泪小管栓塞,包括:
本体,所述本体沿泪小管的轴线方向延展;
所述本体的外侧壁具有向泪小管管壁方向延伸的凸出部,所述凸出部表面与至少一部分所述本体外壁形成泪液外通道。
本技术方案中,创造性地将泪液通道由一般常识中的内壁通道(或称“内通道”)变为外壁通道(或称“外通道”),凸出部不仅作为形成泪液外通道的结构亦作为将泪小管栓塞卡在泪小管中以固定泪小管栓塞的结构。由于考虑人体舒适度,泪小管制造材料选用具有优异生物相容性和生物稳定性的聚异丁烯类弹性体材料。相比传统中空管状和实心柱状泪小管栓塞,本技术方案中的泪小管栓塞仅由凸出部的外侧部分(包括外缘)与泪小管壁接触,并采用舒适度更高的聚异丁烯类弹性体材料,尽量的降低患者异物感和过敏反应,提高了使用体验。
优选地,所述凸出部为围绕所述本体的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹,所述泪液外通道由左旋螺纹表面或右旋螺纹表面与一部分所述本体外壁形成。
本技术方案中,泪液外通道由围绕本体的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹构成,以螺纹的表面和本体外壁的一部分共同构成泪液外通道的壁,该方案由螺纹外侧部分支撑在泪小管壁上,支撑性好,螺纹加工亦十分方便,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
进一步优选地,改变所述本体的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹的螺距可以调节泪液流速。
本技术方案中,通过调节螺纹的螺距(在螺纹内外直径一定的情况下,调整螺距亦相当于调整螺旋角)从而调节泪液的流出速率,从而满足不同干眼症症状程度患者的需求。
进一步优选地,改变所述本体的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹的螺纹宽度(即螺纹内外直径之差的一半)可以调节泪液流速。
本技术方案中,通过调节螺纹的宽度从而调节泪液的流出速率,从而满足不同干眼症症状程度患者的需求。
进一步优选地,同时改变所述本体的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹的螺距和螺纹宽度调节泪液流速,从而满足不同干眼症症状程度患者的需求。
不同于螺纹方案,本公开亦提供另一优选方案,
所述凸出部为凸台,所述凸台由本体沿其径向方向凸出,所述凸台至少为一个;
每一个所述凸台的外周壁开有槽,所述槽壁与至少一部分所述本体外壁形成所述泪液外通道。本技术方案中,可以通过改变凸台数量、槽的开口角度大小、槽的开口深度以及槽的数量从而调节泪液的流出速率,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
进一步优选地,所述凸台为一个,或两个及以上轴向间隔布置。
本技术方案中,可以通过改变凸台的数量从而调节泪小管栓塞放置在泪小管中的稳定性,两个及以上更加稳定。
进一步优选地,每一个所述凸台开有至少一个所述槽,或两个及以上槽。
本技术方案中,通过调节槽的数量从而调节泪液的流出速率,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
进一步优选地,当所述槽为两个以上时,所述槽沿所述本体周向均布。
本技术方案中,槽周向均布加工时较为方便。
进一步优选地,当所述凸台为两个以上时,相邻两个所述凸台的槽相对设置或错位设置。
本技术方案中,通过槽的相对设置或错位设置,以便调节泪液流向,改变泪液流动过程中的能量损失程度,以此可以调解泪液流出速度,满足泪液流出 方便控制的目的。
除了上述螺纹和凸台方案外,本公开还提供另一优选方案,所述凸出部为凸出条,所述凸出条由本体沿其径向方向凸出,所述凸出条以直上直下或偏转一定角度自上而上下沿所述本体连续布置;所述凸出条为一个,或两个及以上沿所述本体周向间隔布置。
本技术方案中,每根凸出条上下贯穿本体,若有一个凸出条,则在凸出条的两侧形成泪液外通道。若有两个及以上凸出条,则相邻两条凸出条之间形成泪液外通道。
进一步优选地,所述凸台的形状可以为片状、半球状、圆柱或棱柱状、甚至不规则形状等。
进一步优选地,所述凸出条的外形可以为片状、半球状、圆柱或棱柱状、甚至不规则形状等。
进一步优选地,左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹与所述泪小管接触处为尖角或圆弧或平面。
本技术方案中,螺纹与泪小管接触处的结构为尖角或圆弧或平面,尖角方案使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更牢固,圆角方案更使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更舒适。
与上一个技术方案类似,凸台与所述泪小管接触处为尖角或圆弧或平面。凸出条与所述泪小管接触处为尖角或圆弧或平面。
进一步优选地,所述泪小管栓塞与泪小管过盈配合。
本技术方案中,泪小管栓塞与泪小管过盈配合,泪小管栓塞不容易从泪小管中滑脱,保证了使用的长效性。
进一步优选地,所述泪小管栓塞长度为0.5mm~3.0mm;所述泪小管栓塞外缘直径范围为0.2mm~2.0mm。
本技术方案中,通过调节泪小管栓塞长度以及泪小管栓塞的外缘直径,可 以满足不同泪小管栓塞使用者的要求。
进一步优选地,所述本体内部为中空的泪液内通道。
本技术方案中,采用本体内部泪液内通道和泪液外通道结合的方式,扩大了泪液流速的可控范围和可操作性。凸出部起到固定栓塞在泪小管内,泪液外通道(即栓塞本体外部的通道)具有控制泪液流出速度的功能;泪液内通道(即栓塞本体内部的通道)主要起控制泪液流出速度的功能。本方案的目的在于一旦泪液外通道或泪液内通道发生堵塞以后,另外一个通道能继续发挥引流泪液的作用,从而在设计上延长泪小管栓塞的使用寿命。如果泪小管完全堵塞,则会增加此部位炎症副反应发生的几率。
进一步优选地,所述泪小管栓塞采用基于聚异丁烯热塑性弹性材料。
本技术方案中,由于采用新型的设计和材料,基于聚异丁烯的弹性泪小管栓塞能减少异物感和不适感。
进一步优选地,所述泪小管栓塞采用由基于聚异丁烯[polyisobutylene(PIB)]嵌段的嵌段共聚物材料制造,所述嵌段包括橡胶态聚异丁烯聚合物,和玻璃态或结晶态热塑性聚合物。
本技术方案中,聚异丁烯嵌段聚合物既具有橡胶的弹性,也具有塑料的熔融热加工性能,尤其是具有出色的生物相容性和生物稳定性(在人体内不引起异体反应,也不降解)。聚异丁烯材料嵌段聚合物的优异生物稳定性得益于橡胶态的聚异丁烯嵌段其特殊的饱和分子结构:不含双键、无长支链、无不对称碳原子。尤其是无不对称碳原子使聚异丁烯嵌段不存在可以脱氢的化学途径,而聚乙烯和聚丙烯材料由于脱氢在人体内有一定的降解或交联。
进一步优选地,所述泪小管栓塞由基于聚异丁烯[polyisobutylene(PIB)]嵌段的线性三嵌段共聚物材料制造,所述线性三嵌段共聚物为两端玻璃态或结晶态的热塑性聚合物嵌段,中心嵌段为橡胶态聚异丁烯聚合物。
进一步优选地,所述泪小管栓塞为线性三嵌段共聚物热塑性弹性体SIBS 单独,或与纳米银粒子进行熔融共混制造;所述SIBS为聚苯乙烯-b-聚异丁烯-b-聚苯乙烯[poly(styrene-block-isobutylene-block-styrene)]三嵌段聚合物。
本技术方案中,制备泪小管栓塞的材料优先选择为基于聚异丁烯[polyisobutylene(PIB)]嵌段的线性三嵌段共聚物,其结构特征为:两端玻璃态或结晶态(即玻璃化转变温度或熔点高于人体温度)热塑性聚合物嵌段,而中心嵌段为橡胶态(即玻璃化转变温度或熔点低于人体温度)聚异丁烯聚合物。此处优先采用SIBS(即为聚苯乙烯-b-聚异丁烯-b-聚苯乙烯[poly(styrene-block-isobutylene-block-styrene)])作为制备泪小管栓塞的材料。SIBS作为三嵌段共聚物热塑性弹性体具有优异的生物稳定性、生物相容性,机械弹性和加工性能。在人体体温状态下,高分子量的PIB是柔软的橡胶态弹性体材料;而与之相反,PS(聚苯乙烯)嵌段则是玻璃态的塑料。特殊的三嵌段【硬(PS)--软(PIB)--硬(PS)】分子结构使SIBS材料富有良好的机械弹性。并且通过调节聚苯乙烯和聚异丁烯的相对量,可以优化出软硬度适宜的SIBS弹性体材料。并且,与传统的有机硅材料相比,SIBS植入眼部后,临床上无明显的炎症和异体反应。
作为硬段的聚苯乙烯嵌段可以被其他玻璃态或结晶态聚合物所替代,只需后者无可降解的基团,或无可降解的会引起毒副作用的基团。此类聚合物除聚苯乙烯外,还包括聚α-甲基苯乙烯,聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯,聚甲基丙烯酸乙酯等乙烯基苯类和甲基丙烯酸酯类聚合物,或他们的混合物。
银粒子是一种广谱抗菌成分。分散的纳米银颗粒不仅具有抗菌、抗炎的作用,而且有助于克服聚合物材料制成的栓塞难以定位探测的问题。将SIBS和纳米银粒子熔融共混,能综合两种材料的优点,一方面避免由于材料的机械柔顺度(或硬度)不匹配(或硬度过高)导致的异物感和异体反应问题,另一方面由于银为金属材料,医疗探测使用的X射线、CT、核磁共振等均容易进行 定位和探测,为后续的医疗提供方便。
本公开提供的一种泪小管栓塞,能够带来以下至少一种有益效果:
1、本公开创造性的将泪液通道由一般常识中的内壁通道(或称内通道)变为外壁通道(或称外通道),凸出部不仅作为形成泪液外通道的结构亦作为将泪小管栓塞卡在泪小管中以固定泪小管栓塞的结构。由于考虑人体舒适度和长期植入性,泪小管制造材料选择以SIBS为代表的基于聚异丁烯的热塑性弹性材料。相比传统中空管状和实心柱状泪小管栓塞,本技术方案中的泪小管栓塞仅由凸出部的外侧部分(包括外缘)与泪小管壁接触,尽量的降低患者异物感和过敏反应,提高了使用体验。本公开的泪液外通道的宽度取决于泪小管栓塞外径和本体直径之差。改变所述外通道的宽度可以调节泪液流出流速。
2、本公开的一些方案中采用多泪液外通道的设计,相较于传统单纯的中空管状泪液内通道设计,可以更有效地避免可能的泪道堵塞,以及可能(由泪道堵塞而导致)的炎症反应。此外,采用本体部外泪液外通道与泪液内通道相结合的方式,还可以进一步扩大泪液流速的可控范围和可操作性。
3、泪液外通道由围绕本体的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹构成,以螺纹的表面和本体外壁的一部分共同构成泪液外通道的壁。通过改变螺纹的螺距和/或螺纹的宽度,已达到调节泪液流出速度,从而满足不同干眼症症状程度患者的需求。
4、泪液外通道亦可以由围绕本体的凸台构成,所述凸台由本体沿其径向方向凸出,每一个所述凸台的外周壁开有槽。通过槽的相对设置或错位设置,以便调节泪液流向,改变泪液流动过程中的能量损失程度,以此可以调节泪液流出速度,满足泪液流出方便控制的目的。
5、泪液外通道亦可以由围绕本体的凸出条构成,所述凸出条由本体沿其径向方向凸出。凸出条以直上直下或螺旋形自上而下贯穿本体,相邻两条凸出条之间的凹槽形成泪液外通道。由此而形成的多泪液外通道的设计,不但可以调节泪液的流出速度,而且可以降低可能的泪液堵塞的风险。
6、无论螺纹还是凸台、凸出条,其外侧部分都易于支撑在泪小管壁上,支撑性好,加工亦十分方便,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
7、螺纹、凸台或凸出条与泪小管接触处的结构为尖角或圆弧或平面,尖角方案使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更牢固,圆弧方案更使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更舒适,平面可兼顾牢固和舒适性。
8、此公开创造性地将外壁通道(或称外通道)设计与具有优异生物相容性、生物稳定性的SIBS弹性体材料相结合,制备了新一代泪小管栓塞产品。其结构简单,定位可靠、稳定,大大降低异体反应和组织炎症的发生几率,具有广阔的市场前景,相当强的市场竞争力,以及良好的社会效益。

具体实施方式
为了更清楚地说明本公开实施例或现有技术中的技术方案,下面将对照附图说明本公开的具体实施方式。显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅是本公开的一些实施例,对于本领域普通技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动的前提下,还可以根据这些附图获得其他的附图,并获得其他的实施方式。
为使图面简洁,各图中只是示意性地表示出了与本公开相关的部分,它们并不代表其作为产品的实际结构。另外,以使图面简洁便于理解,在有些图中具有相同结构或功能的部件,仅示意性地绘示了其中的一个,或仅标出了其中的一个。在本文中,“一个”不仅表示“仅此一个”,也可以表示“多于一个”的情形。
在一实施例中,如图1所示。一种泪小管栓塞,包括:本体2,其沿泪小管的轴线方向延展;本体2的外侧壁具有向泪小管管壁4(图中未显示)方向延伸的凸出部21,凸出部21表面与至少一部分所述本体2外壁形成泪液外通道3。凸出部21的具体形状本实施例不作限制,可以是半球状、圆柱或棱柱状、 顶部具有部分球面的圆柱或棱柱状、具有尖顶的圆柱或棱柱状、甚至不规则形状等。图1中示出的形式为顶部具有部分球面的圆柱状凸出部。
本实施例中,创造性的将泪液通道3由一般常识中的内壁通道(或称内通道)变为外壁通道(或称外通道),凸出部21不仅作为形成泪液外通道的结构亦作为将泪小管栓塞卡在泪小管中以固定泪小管栓塞的结构。由于考虑人体舒适度,泪小管制造材料首选弹性材料;此外,相比传统中空管状和实心柱状泪小管栓塞,泪小管栓塞仅由凸出部21的外侧部分与泪小管内壁4(图中未显示)接触,尽量的降低患者异物感和过敏反应,提高了使用体验;而且,传统的中空管状泪小管栓塞或者实心栓塞的全部侧壁几乎均与泪小管内壁紧密接触,致使细菌有可能积存在泪小管栓塞与泪小管内壁之间无法排出,引起发炎或不适。本公开中凸出部21与泪小管内壁4(图中未显示)为小面积接触,有利于细菌、蛋白质等物质随泪液流走,减轻发炎风险。
值得说明的是,本实施例的泪小管栓塞可以植入泪小管(泪道)中。
在另一实施例中,如图2-4所示,在上一实施例的基础上,凸出部21为围绕本体的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹,泪液外通道3由左旋螺纹表面或右旋螺纹表面与一部分本体2外形成。图2-4中示出的形式为右旋螺纹。可以理解,左旋螺纹亦同理。本实施例中,以螺纹的表面和本体2外壁的一部分共同构成泪液外通道3的壁,该方案由螺纹外侧部分支撑在泪小管内壁4上,支撑性好,螺纹加工亦十分方便,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
在另一实施例中,如图2所示,改变本体2的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹的螺纹宽度(即螺纹内外直径之差的一半,(d1-d2)/2)可以调节泪液的流出速度。本实施例中,通过调节螺纹的宽度从而调节泪液的流出速率,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
在另一实施例中,如图5所示,改变本体2的左旋螺纹或右旋螺纹的螺距可以调节泪液流速。本实施例中,通过调节螺纹的螺距(在螺纹内外直径一定 的情况下,调整螺距亦相当于调整螺旋角)从而调节泪液的流出速率,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
在另一实施例中,如图6-7所示,一种泪小管栓塞,包括:本体2,其沿泪小管的轴线方向延展;本体2的外侧壁具有向泪小管管壁4(图中未显示)方向延伸的凸出部21,凸出部21表面与至少一部分所述本体2外壁形成泪液外通道3(图中未显示)。凸出部21为凸台5,凸台5由本体2沿其径向方向凸出,凸台5至少为一个;每一个凸台5的外周壁开有槽6,槽壁与至少一部分本体2外壁形成泪液外通道3。本实施例中,可以通过改变凸台5数量、槽6的开口角度大小、槽6的开口深度以及槽6的数量从而调节泪液的流出速率,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。凸台5为一个,或两个及以上轴向间隔布置。本实施例中,可以通过改变凸台5的数量从而调节泪小管栓塞放置在泪小管中的稳定性,两个及以上更加稳定。
如图7、8、9、13所示,每一个凸台5开有至少一个槽6,或两个及以上槽6。图7示出了开四个槽6,图8示出了开一个槽6,图9示出了开两个槽6。本实施例中,通过调节槽6的数量从而调节泪液的流出速率,以满足不同泪小管栓塞程度要求。
如图7、9、13所示,当槽6为两个以上时,槽6沿本体周向均布。这些实施例中,槽6周向均布加工时较为方便。
如图7、9、13所示,当凸台5为两个以上时,相邻两个凸台5的槽6相对设置或错位设置。相对设置是指上下不同凸台5的槽6均开设在相同位置;错位设置是指上下不同凸台5的槽6开始位置不同,互相错位。本实施例中,通过槽6的相对设置或错位设置,以便调节泪液流向,改变泪液流动过程中的能量损失程度,以此可以调解泪液流出速度,满足泪液流出方便控制的目的。错位设置的槽6泪液流动速度一般会比相对设置慢。
在本公开实施例中,所述凸台的具体形状不作限制,可以是片状、半球状、 圆柱或棱柱状、甚至不规则形状等。图6,7,8、9和13中所示出的凸台的形式以片状为例。
此种多槽口、或多泪液外通道的设计,相较于传统单纯的中空管状泪液内通道设计,可以更有效地避免可能的泪道堵塞,以及可能(由泪道堵塞而导致)的炎症反应。
在本公开的另一实施例中,如图10-11所示,一种泪小管栓塞,包括:本体2,其沿泪小管的轴线方向延展;本体2的外侧壁具有向泪小管管壁4(图中未显示)方向延伸的凸出部21,凸出部21表面与至少一部分所述本体2外壁形成泪液外通道3(图11中显示)。凸出部21为凸出条7,凸出条7由本体2沿其径向方向凸出,凸出条7自上而上下沿本体2连续布置;凸出条7为一个,或两个及两个以上沿本体2周向间隔布置。本实施例中,每根凸出条7上下贯穿本体2,若有一个凸出条7,则在凸出条7的两侧形成泪液外通道。若有两个及以上凸出条7,则相邻两条凸出条7之间形成泪液外通道3。凸出条7为3个或以上更为稳定。凸出条7与泪小管接触处为尖角或圆弧或平面。
图12和图13所示为凸出部21的螺纹和凸台5的边缘以圆弧形式出现。可以理解,尖角方案使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更牢固,圆角方案更使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更舒适,平面可兼顾牢固和舒适性。
在本公开的另一些实施例中,如图5、12、16所示,凸出部21与泪小管接触处为尖角(如图5)或圆弧(如图12)或平面(如图16)。尖角方案使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更牢固,圆角方案更使得泪小管栓塞在泪小管中安置更舒适,平面可兼顾牢固和舒适性。
在本公开的另一些实施例中,如图6和13所示,凸台5与泪小管接触处为尖角(如图5)或圆弧(如图13)。当然,凸台5与泪小管接触处的结构亦可为平面。
在本公开的另一实施例中,如图14,一种泪小管栓塞,包括:本体2,其 沿泪小管的轴线方向延展;本体2的外侧壁具有向泪小管管壁4(图中未显示)方向延伸的凸出部,凸出部表面与至少一部分所述本体2外壁形成泪液外通道3。凸出部为凸出条7,凸出条7由本体2沿其径向方向凸出,凸出条7自上而上下沿本体2连续布置。凸出条7自上而下沿本体2的外表面偏转一定角度(可以左偏也可以右偏)。凸出条7为一个,或两个及两个以上沿本体2周向间隔布置。本实施例中,每根凸出条7上下贯穿本体2,若有一个凸出条7,则在凸出条7的两侧形成泪液外通道。若有两个及以上凸出条7,则相邻两条凸出条7之间形成泪液外通道3。凸出条7为3个或以上更为稳定。图14以4个凸出条7为例。,凸出条7与泪小管接触处为尖角或圆弧或平面。图14示出圆角形式。可以理解,尖角、平面亦同理。在本公开的另一些实施例中,泪小管栓塞与泪小管过盈配合。泪小管栓塞与泪小管过盈配合,泪小管栓塞不容易从泪小管中滑脱,保证了使用的长效性。
此种多泪液外通道的设计,相较于传统单纯的中空管状泪液内通道设计,可以更有效地避免可能的泪道堵塞,以及可能(由泪道堵塞而导致)的炎症反应。
在本公开的另一实施例中,如图15、16所示,一种泪小管栓塞,包括:本体2,其沿泪小管的轴线方向延展。本体2的外侧壁具有向泪小管管壁4方向延伸的凸出部21,凸出部21表面与至少一部分所述本体2外壁形成泪液外通道3,以及位于本体2内部的中空的泪液内通道8。本实施例和其他实施例中本体2内部均可为中空的泪液内通道8。图15中,凸出部21与所述泪小管管壁接触处为尖角。接触处为圆弧或平面亦可。
在上述所有实施例中,图均为示意图,由于材料加工成型不可避免会形成一些过渡、尖角、圆角以及加工误差等等,均包括在本公开的范围内。
应当说明的是,上述实施例均可根据需要自由组合。以上所述仅是本公开的优选实施方式。并且应当指出,对于本技术领域的普通技术人员来说,在 不脱离本公开原理的前提下,还可以做出若干改进和润饰,这些改进和润饰也应视为本公开的保护范围。
在本公开的实施例中,泪小管栓塞长度为0.5mm~3.0mm;泪小管栓塞外缘直径范围为0.2mm~2.0mm。通过调节泪小管栓塞长度,以及泪小管栓塞的外缘直径,可以满足不同泪小管栓塞使用者的要求。
在本公开的实施例中,泪液外通道的宽度取决于泪小管栓塞外径和本体直径之差。改变所述外通道的宽度可以调节泪液流出速度。
在本公开的实施例中,泪小管栓塞采用基于聚异丁烯弹性材料。基于聚异丁烯弹性材料的泪小管栓塞能减少异物感和不适感。
在本公开的实施例中,如图17所示,泪小管栓塞优先采用由基于聚异丁烯[polyisobutylene(PIB)]嵌段的线性三嵌段共聚物材料制造。其分子结构特征为:两端玻璃态或结晶态(即玻璃化转变温度或熔点高于人体温度)热塑性聚合物嵌段,而中心嵌段为橡胶态(即玻璃化转变温度或熔点低于人体温度)聚异丁烯聚合物。此处首选采用SIBS(即为聚苯乙烯-b-聚异丁烯-b-聚苯乙烯[poly(styrene-block-isobutylene-block-styrene)])作为制备泪小管栓塞的材料。泪小管栓塞为SIBS单独,或与纳米银粒子进行熔融共混制造。
SIBS是以聚异丁烯[polyisobutylene(PIB)]为中间嵌段的线性三嵌段共聚物。本实施例中,SIBS作为三嵌段共聚物具有优异的生物稳定性、生物相容性,机械弹性和加工性能。由于热力学的不相容性和三嵌段的聚合物分子结构特征,聚苯乙烯(PS)和聚异丁烯(PIB)自聚集形成有序的微观结构。高玻璃态温度(>体温,T b)的聚苯乙烯硬段(hard)微区为低玻璃态温度(<体温,T b)的非晶态聚异丁烯软段(soft)微区提供物理交联点,使整个材料在体温(T b)环境下表现为弹性体。材料所需的弹性模量、硬度、伸长率等机械性能可以通过活性阳离子聚合手段进行分子设计,而得以实现。具体的方法有:调节总体分子量的大小、聚苯乙烯(PS)和聚异丁烯(PIB)的嵌段长度、和嵌段长度比(S/IB) 等。三嵌段共聚物呈现“硬段(hard)---软段(soft)---硬段(hard)”的分子结构特征。通过分子设计,使材料的柔顺性与植入部位组织相匹配,从而降低由于植入器械硬度过高而导致的异体反应。并且由于SIBS结构成分具有优异的生物相容性和生物稳定性,从而避免了(由于长期植入)材料降解释放出的小分子物质所导致的组织炎症反应。纳米银粒子是一种广谱抗菌成分。分散的纳米银颗粒不仅具有抗菌、抗炎的作用,而且有助于克服聚合物材料制成的泪小管栓塞难以定位探测的问题。将SIBS和纳米银粒子熔融共混,能综合两种材料的优点,以期避免由于材料的机械柔顺度(或硬度)不匹配(或硬度过高)导致的异物感和异体反应问题,并且由于银为金属材料,医疗探测使用的X射线、CT、核磁共振等均容易进行定位和探测,为后续的医疗提供方便。
