Description

心室辅助装置 技术领域
本发明涉及医疗器械技术领域,特别涉及一种心室辅助装置。
背景技术
心室辅助装置是利用人工材料制成的机械装置,心室辅助装置可以暂时或永久替代心脏泵血功能,以减少心脏负荷,并能够辅助心脏实现血液循环,目前已成为治疗心力衰竭和延长寿命的重要医疗手段。心室辅助装置可分为血液直接接触式心室辅助装置和非血液直接接触式心室辅助装置。目前的血液直接接触式心室辅助装置通常采用搏动式薄膜泵和恒流泵(例如轴流泵、离心泵)对血流直接做功,从而提高血流的流速和压强,以实现对心室按压功能的辅助。但该种类型的心室辅助装置均有部分组件(如泵壳、叶轮、抽吸管路等)与人体血液直接接触,并对血液输出驱动力,如此将具有血液相容性(例如凝血和溶血)的风险;同时在该种类型的心室辅助装置植入后,患者还较易出现外周动脉血栓、内脏出血、甚至死亡等不良事件。
基于血液直接接触式心室辅助装置的上述问题,近年来,有多家公司及科研机构对非血液直接接触式心室辅助装置展开了研究。常见的非血液接触式心室辅助装置通常具有一个能够包覆于心脏外壁的包套,并在心脏外壁与包套之间设置按压囊。按压囊中充满压缩空气,按压囊与心脏外壁紧密贴合,在压缩空气的驱动下按压囊扩张或收缩,以实现按压囊对心室的按压。但是,一方面,由于包套的形状通常较为固定,在心室辅助装置植入人体后,患者的心脏将发生重构,即患者心脏的体积和形状将发生变化,此时形状相对固定的包套和按压囊无法与重构后的心脏外壁充分贴合,如此将影响对心室的按压效果,进而影响心室辅助装置的治疗效果。另一方面,所述包套的几何模型是由患者心脏的影像数据逆向重构而获得,由于每个患者的心脏形状各异,故每个患者根据心脏影像数据获得的包套尺寸也各不相同,包套的定制化制备方式使得包套生产效率较低且难以进行标准化和批量化的生产,生产成本较高;并且所述包套需在患者采集心脏影像数据后制备,患者在手术前 往往需要较长的等待时间,如此可提高患者疾病的治疗周期,增加患者的心理负担,还可能导致患者病情的恶化,甚至造成患者的致残或死亡。
因此,亟需一种可适用于不同患者,以及心脏发生重构后还能有效按压心脏的心室辅助装置。
发明内容

具体实施方式
以下结合附图和具体实施例对本发明作进一步详细说明。根据下面说明,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。
术语“中心”、“纵向”、“横向”、“长度”、“宽度”、“厚度”、“上”、“下”、“前”、“后”、“左”、“右”、“竖直”、“水平”、“顶”、“底”、“内”、“外”、“顺时针”、“逆时针”、“轴向”、“径向”、“周向”等指示的方位或位置关系为基于附图所示的方位或位置关系,仅是为了便于描述本发明和简化描述,而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作,因此不能理解为对本发明的限制。
在本发明中,除非另有明确的规定和限定,术语“安装”、“连接”、“固定”等术语应做广义理解,例如,可以是固定连接,也可以是可拆卸连接, 或成一体;可以是机械连接,也可以是电连接或彼此可通讯;可以是直接相连,也可以通过中间媒介相连,可以是两个元件内部的连通或两个元件的相互作用关系,除非另有明确的限定。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言,可以根据具体情况理解上述术语在本发明中的具体含义。本发明的描述中,“多个”的含义是至少两个,例如两个或三个或更多个等。本发明的描述中,“近端”通常是指靠近手术操作者的一端;“远端”是与“近端”相反的一端,通常是指远离手术操作者的一端,也即首先进入体内的一端。本发明的描述中,“心室外壁的周向”是指围绕左心室和右心室的方向。
下面结合附图和优选实施例对本发明作详细的说明。在不冲突的情况下,下述的实施方式及实施方式中的特征可以相互补充或相互组合。
如图1~3所示,本发明一优选实施例提供一种心室辅助装置,其包括按压囊1、调节囊3和包套53,按压囊1用于包覆心脏2的至少部分外壁,以辅助心室21进行收缩或扩张。调节囊3包覆至少部分按压囊1,以调节按压囊1的位置,包套53包覆至少部分调节囊3。其中,按压囊1具有封闭的第一空腔,所述第一空腔用于存储工作介质;调节囊3具有封闭的第二空腔,所述第二空腔用于存储调节介质。通常的,按压囊1主要包覆心室21的心肌组织外壁(即心室外壁),如此配置,可通过向按压囊1注入或抽取工作介质,对心室21进行辅助按压,以辅助心脏实现血液循环;同时在按压囊1背离心脏的外侧设置调节囊3,可通过向调节囊3注入或抽取调节介质来调节按压囊1的位置,即调节囊3可以挤压按压囊1,以使按压囊1在任何时候都能够与心脏2的外壁紧密贴靠。
更详细的,在现有技术中,心室辅助装置植入体内后,由于患者心脏的体积和形状将发生变化,此时形状相对固定的包套53和按压囊1无法与重构后的心脏外壁充分贴合。而在本发明中,将以上心室辅助装置植入体内后,若心脏的体积变小,可通过向调节囊3内注入调节介质,以使调节囊3的体积扩大,并推动按压囊1朝心室21的方向移动,以使按压囊1与心脏2的外壁重新紧密贴靠;若心脏的体积变大,则可通过抽取调节囊3内的调节介质,以使调节囊3的体积缩小,并使按压囊1能够朝远离心室21的方向移动,以减少按压囊1对心脏2外壁的挤压,并同时确保按压囊1与心脏2外壁的紧 密贴靠;如此配置,可确保按压囊1能够在心脏发生重构后始终对心室21进行有效按压,保证心室辅助装置的长期治疗效果。通过调节囊3的上述调节作用,同一规格的包套53和按压囊1能够对不同患者的心脏2进行包覆和按压,进而可实现心室辅助装置的规格化和批量化生产,如此可有效降低心室辅助装置的生产成本,提升生产效率。此外,规格化生产的包套53和按压囊1无定制化的生产周期,并可在患者需要时随时进行植入,从而可有效减少患者手术前的等待时间,避免患者病情的恶化,并有效降低患者致残和致死的风险。
此外,所述工作介质和所述调节介质主要采用流动性较好的气体或液体,如此可以更高效的调整按压囊1和调节囊3各区域的压力,以提高心室辅助装置的调节效率和心室按压效率。本申请对工作介质和调节介质的种类不作限定,所述气体包括但不限于氮气、氦气或压缩空气,所述液体包括但不限于纯水或生理盐水。另外,所述工作介质和所述调节介质的种类可相同或不相同。
进一步地,按压囊包括第一薄膜和第二薄膜,第一薄膜和第二薄膜之间形成封闭的第一空腔,第一空腔用于存储工作介质;调节囊包括第二薄膜和第三薄膜(附图中未示出),第二薄膜和第三薄膜之间形成封闭的第二空腔,第二空腔用于存储调节介质。在本实施例中,按压囊1包括第一薄膜51和第二薄膜52,第一薄膜51和第二薄膜52之间形成第一空腔,此时第一薄膜51用于直接贴靠心脏2的外壁并构成按压囊1的内壁,第二薄膜52用于直接接触调节囊3并构成按压囊1的外壁。调节囊3包括第二薄膜52和包套53,第二薄膜52和包套53之间形成第二空腔,此时,第二薄膜52构成调节囊3的内壁,包套53构成调节囊3的外壁。在本实例中,优选包套53即为第三薄膜。当然在其他实施例中,包套53和第三薄膜可以是分开设置不同的薄膜。在本实施例中,优选调节囊3和按压囊1共用第二薄膜52,如此配置,调节囊3可将自身体积改变而产生的压力有效的传递至按压囊1,并使得调节囊3能够高效的对按压囊1的位置进行调整,从而在心脏重构后保证按压囊1能够始终与心脏2的外壁紧密贴靠,如此构造,可较好的实现按压囊1和调节囊3压力的传递。当然在其他实施例中,调节囊3和按压囊1也可不共用第 二薄膜52,而是分开设置不同的薄膜。
需理解的是,按压囊1和调节囊3可以是由整张薄膜一体制备而成,也可由不同的薄膜拼接而成。本申请对按压囊1和调节囊3的制作方式不限定。此外,本申请对第一薄膜51、第二薄膜52、第三薄膜和包套53的材料不作限定。例如第一薄膜51可选用能够直接接触心肌的柔性薄膜,例如采用较为柔软且可耐疲劳的硅胶、低硬度TPU等材料制备;第二薄膜52可选用高硬度的弹性塑料,例如采用PU、TPU、PVC等材料制备。第二薄膜52优选设置为包含柔性抗拉加强层(如尼龙丝、Pebax)的多层的膜结构。第三薄膜或包套53可选用具有较强的抗拉刚度和强度的弹性塑料或金属材料,例如采用PU、TPU、PVC等材料制备,或使用镍钛合金、不锈钢或超高分子量聚乙烯等材料制备。第三薄膜或包套53优选设置为基体材料为PU、TPU或PVC,并包含较高刚度的镍钛合金、不锈钢或超高分子量聚乙烯等加强网的多层的膜结构,如此设置,可使调节囊3的外壁具有较大的刚度,并能够限位调节囊3。由于调节囊3的内壁刚度较小,当向调节囊3中注入调节介质时,调节囊3仅能够朝按压囊1的方向膨胀,而不能朝包套53的方向膨胀,使得调节囊3能够对按压囊1施加压力。本申请对包套53的结构不作限定,包套53可设置为支撑网、支撑套筒或其他类型的支撑结构。
优选的,调节囊3的数量为多个,且多个调节囊3均包覆在按压囊1上,多个调节囊3用于独立地设置在对应于左心室211和/或右心室212的位置,以调节按压囊1不同区域的位置,并实现按压囊1的非均匀调节,如此可使按压囊1的调节效率更高,对心室21按压的效果也更好。具体的,在心室辅助装置植入后,由于患者的心脏会发生重构,重构后的心脏2可能会与按压囊1的部分区域分离,设置多个独立的调节囊3可仅对按压囊1中与心脏2外壁相分离的区域进行调节,而不必对调节囊3包覆按压囊1的所有区域均进行调节,调节精准且调节效率较高。
应理解,在一些实施例中,多个独立的调节囊3可连续的设置在按压囊1的外壁,即多个独立的调节囊3可在按压囊1的外壁上连续排列且互不重叠;此时可在按压囊1的外壁上设置多个调节囊3,以调节按压囊1任意区域的位置。在另一些实施例中,多个独立的调节囊3可在按压囊1的外壁上间隔设 置,此时调节囊3可根据需要设置在按压囊1的部分区域,并对按压囊1部分区域的位置进行调节。
在另一些实施例中,调节囊3的数量也可为一个,且一个调节囊3包覆在按压囊1的至少部分外壁上,并可对按压囊1中包覆调节囊3的区域同时进行调节。
在一优选实施例中,所述心室辅助装置还包括输送导管,所述输送导管具有多个输送通道,多个输送通道与对应的一个调节囊3连通,且不同调节囊3连通不同的输送通道,此时可通过多个输送通道向对应的一个调节囊3中输送调节介质,从而实现对按压囊1的分区调节,提升调节的灵活性。
参照图1和图2所示,所述输送导管包括第一导管41,第一导管41的远端连接调节囊3,第一导管41可设置为单腔管或多腔管。在一实施例中,第一导管41为单腔管,所述单腔管的数量为多根,多根单腔管连接不同的调节囊3,以分别控制不同调节囊3的压力,多个调节囊3可分别对按压囊1的不同区域施加压力,从而可灵活地调节按压囊1不同区域的位置。在另一实施例中,第一导管41为多腔管且数量为一根,一根所述多腔管中的多个腔道连接不同的调节囊3,如此可同时向不同的调节囊3内注入或抽取调节介质,从而提升输送导管的输送效率。
继续参阅图1,所述输送导管还包括连接接口42,第一导管41的近端连接所述连接接口42。较优的,连接接口42可直接连接外部的注射部件,外部的注射部件通过第一导管41向调节囊3注入或抽取调节介质。
当第一导管41为单腔管时,每根单腔管的近端优选连接一个连接接口42。在一实施例中,第一导管41的数量为多个,连接接口42的数量也为多个,此时外部的注射部件可通过不同的连接接口42分别向对应的一个调节囊3中注入或抽取调节介质,以分别控制不同的调节囊3;当然在其他实施例中,第一导管41的数量也可为一个,此时可通过一个连接接口42向调节囊3内输送调节介质。
当第一导管41为多腔管时,一根所述多腔管的每个腔道的近端优选连接一个连接接口42。在一优选实施例中,调节囊3的数量为多个,所述多腔管与连接接口42相连接的一端可具有一个或多个腔道,并具有一个或多个连接 接口42,此时外部注射部件可通过一个或多个连接接口42向不同的调节囊3中输送调节介质,以进一步提高调节介质的输送效率。
较优的,连接接口42上设置有可开闭的密封部(未图示),闭合后的所述密封部用于封堵第一导管41,打开后的所述密封部用于供外部的注射部件通过,外部的注射部件用于向调节囊3内注入或抽取调节介质。在一示例中,所述密封部由隔膜制成,所述隔膜能够被外部的注射部件刺穿,并在刺穿后还能够自动闭合,如此可使连接接口42的结构简单,使用方便且密封性效果好。具体的,所述外部注射部件通常为注射针,连接接口42通常为可注射座,所述注射座通常在皮下植入,所述注射针能够穿透所述注射座上的隔膜,并向调节囊3注入或抽取调节介质。
在一优选实施例中,所述心室辅助装置还包括输送装置(未图示)和控制装置7,所述输送装置和控制装置7通信连接,所述输送装置与所述输送导管连接。所述输送导管还包括第二导管6,第二导管6的远端连接按压囊1。
作为一示例,控制装置7用于根据所接受的心脏造影数据,控制所述输送装置通过第二导管6向按压囊1注入或抽取工作介质,以辅助心室21的收缩和扩张。
作为一示例,控制装置7用于根据所接受的心脏造影数据,控制所述输送装置通过第一导管41向调节囊3注入或抽取调节介质,以调整调节囊3对按压囊1施加的压力。
可选的,控制装置7还包括压力检测装置,所述压力检测装置可实时检测按压囊1和调节囊3的压力,以使对心室21的按压调整更为精确,辅助效果更好。具体的,可在第一薄膜51、第二薄膜52、第三薄膜及包套53中的至少一个上设置电极,压力检测装置可根据电极检测到的心脏造影数据获取调节囊3和按压囊1的压力,从而可得到调节囊3、按压囊1和心室21外壁之间的按压程度,以使心室辅助装置能够更加精确和高效的对心室21进行辅助。所述压力检测装置的种类不限定,如包括但不限于压力传感器。
在一具体实施例中,第二导管6可穿过胸壁,此时第二导管6一部分设置在患者的体内,另一部分设置在患者的体外,如此可将控制装置7设置在患者的体外,从而可方便操作人员对患者心脏造影数据的获取。
在一实施例中,控制装置7和输送装置可分体设置,此时可将输送装置设置在患者的体内或体外,并与控制装置7通信连接。在另一实施例中,也可将输送装置集成设置在控制装置7内,以使心室辅助装置的结构简化。
在一具体实施例中,所述输送装置包括流体泵,进一步还可包括阀门。控制装置7可根据心脏造影数据控制所述阀门的开启或关闭,并控制所述流体泵的输送状态,以使所述输送装置向按压囊1内注入或抽取工作介质,从而实现按压囊1对心室21收缩或扩张的辅助。在一具体实施例中,控制装置7可控制输送装置向按压囊1周期性的输送工作介质或间断性的输送工作介质,以实现对心室21的按压。
更详细地,输送装置的输送周期可根据患者的心脏造影数据进行设置,例如当心脏造影数据达到波峰时,参照图3所示,控制装置7可控制输送装置将工作介质注入到工作囊11中,以辅助心室21完成收缩;当心脏造影数据达到波谷时,参照图2所示,控制装置7可控制输送装置将工作介质从工作囊11中抽出,以辅助心室21完成扩张;如此往复,工作囊11即可辅助心室21实现正常的收缩和扩张。应理解,所述心室辅助装置的对心室21的辅助次数和辅助频率可根据需要进行设置,即所述心室辅助装置可在心室21每次收缩和扩张时均进行辅助,也可在心室21完成多次收缩和扩张时仅进行一次或少量次数的辅助。
参照图1~图3所示,在一优选实施例中,按压囊1包括独立设置的(即相互不连通的)工作囊11和支撑囊12;所述工作囊11用于辅助心室21进行收缩或扩张,支撑囊12用于固定心脏2的至少部分外壁,一般固定需要收缩或扩张的心室21外壁即可,从而可避免心脏2在工作囊11的按压下发生扭动或移位,从而保证心室21的按压效果。还应理解,为了使支撑囊12能够有效的固定心脏2的外壁,实际使用时,支撑囊12内的压力始终保持不变,而工作囊11可随时根据心脏造影数据调整其内部的压力,以对心室21进行周期性的按压。
本申请对工作囊11和支撑囊12的数量不限定,工作囊11和支撑囊12的数量可以是一个或多个,且工作囊11和支撑囊12的数量可以相同或不相同。优选的,工作囊11和支撑囊12的数量为多个,多个工作囊11和多个支 撑囊12用于在心室外壁上间隔设置且互不重叠。本申请对工作囊11和支撑囊12之间的相对位置关系不作特别的限定,一般情况下,工作囊11和支撑囊12可用于在心室外壁的周向上交替地设置。
本申请对工作囊11和支撑囊12交替布置的方式亦不作限定,如相邻两个支撑囊12之间可设置至少一个工作囊11,又如相邻两个工作囊11之间可设置至少一个支撑囊12。如此设置,一方面可使多个工作囊11分布在左心室211和右心室212的对应区域,从而可通过向不同的工作囊11中注入或抽取工作介质,实现对左心室211和右心室212的分别按压;另一方面,支撑囊12的间隔设置可在心脏2的外壁上形成多个固定区域,从而可进一步使心脏2固定牢固。
参照图2和图3所示,在本实施例中,工作囊11和支撑囊12的数量均为3个,且以工作囊11、支撑囊12、工作囊11、支撑囊12、工作囊11、支撑囊12的交替方式布置在对应左心室211和右心室212的外壁上,也即,每相邻两个工作囊11之间均设置一个支撑囊12,如此设置基本上能够满足治疗需求。当然在其他实施例中,每相邻两个工作囊11之间还可设置2个或更多的支撑囊12。
进一步地,控制装置7可通过输送装置分别控制多个工作囊11的状态(主要是压力),多个工作囊11的状态可以不同或相同,以精确控制对左心室211和右心室212所施加的压力。
当工作囊11的数量为多个时,所述第二导管6可为单腔管或多腔管。在一实施例中,第二导管6为单腔管,第二导管6的数量为多根,多根第二导管6可分别与对应的一个工作囊11相连接,此时输送装置能够分别独立地向每个工作囊11中注入或抽取工作介质,以实现对不同心室21的分别按压。在另一实施例中,第二导管6为多腔管,且第二导管6的数量为一根,一根第二导管6中的多个腔体可连接不同的工作囊11,此时输送装置能够仅通过一根第二导管6即可向多个工作囊11中输送工作介质,如此可提高工作介质的输送效率。
接下去结合优选实施例对心室辅助装置的工作过程做进一步说明。
总体上,参照图1~图3所示,在心室辅助装置植入体内后,控制装置7 可获取患者的心脏造影数据,并控制输送装置周期性的向工作囊11注入或抽取工作介质,以辅助心室21进行收缩或扩张;当心室辅助装置植入一段时间后,患者会定期进行CT造影,医生会将该次的CT造影数据与上一次的CT造影数据进行比较,若患者该次CT造影显示心脏2的尺寸发生变化,医生将根据心脏2变化的尺寸数据向调节囊3中注入或抽取调节介质,此时按压囊1可在调节囊3的驱动下朝心脏外壁的方向移动,直至重新与心脏2的外壁紧密贴靠。
本申请对控制装置7的种类没有特别的限制,可以是执行逻辑运算的硬件,例如,单片机、微处理器、可编程逻辑控制器(PLC,Programmable Logic Controller)或者现场可编程逻辑门阵列(FPGA,Field-Programmable Gate Array),或者是在硬件基础上的实现上述功能的软件程序、功能模块、函数、目标库(Object Libraries)或动态链接库(Dynamic-Link Libraries)。应当知晓如何具体实现控制装置7与其他设备间的通信。
综上,本发明提供的心室辅助装置可通过调节囊3在心脏2发生重构后对按压囊1的位置进行调节,使得按压囊1能够与重构后的心脏2外壁紧密贴靠,并且在心脏发生重构后,按压囊1始终能够对心室21进行有效按压,从而保证心室辅助装置的长期治疗效果。此外,由于调节囊3能够调节按压囊1的位置,如此可使同一规格的按压囊1可对不同患者的心脏外壁进行包覆和按压,进而可实现心室辅助装置的规格化和批量化生产,如此可有效降低心室辅助装置的生产成本,并提升生产效率。另外,规格化生产的按压囊1无定制化的生产周期,并可在患者需要时随时进行植入,如此可有效减少患者手术前的等待时间,避免患者病情的恶化,并有效降低患者致残和致死的风险。
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,均属于本发明的保护范围。
