Mitral valve prosthetic devices with adjustable direct puncture
Technical Field
The invention relates to a mitral valve repair device capable of being adjusted by direct puncture, and belongs to the technical field of medical instruments.
Background
Mitral Regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvular lesion, and european and american epidemiological research data show that MR prevalence rates in people over 75 years of age reach 10%, significantly exceeding aortic valvular lesions. Also, with the growing progress of the aging lesion of the population in China, mitral regurgitation lesion will also cause a heavy medical burden. Mitral valve repair or replacement is the gold standard for MR treatment, but some studies have shown that up to half of the severely symptomatic MR patients have not selected surgical treatment for reasons largely related to their surgical risk. This large proportion of patients with less tolerance to surgery urgently require a less invasive treatment as an alternative, and interventional mitral valve treatment techniques have emerged. Over the past decade, several transcatheter mitral valve repair techniques derived from different surgical approaches have emerged and are used to treat patients at high surgical risk or who are inoperable. Transcatheter mitral valve repair "kits" are expanding rapidly, with as many as 5 devices approved for clinical use (CE mark) in europe, including MitraClip (Abbott valve-edge-to-edge valve repair), the DS1000 device (NeoChord, Inc, interventional artificial chordae repair), the carllon (Cardiac Dimensions, trans-coronary sinus annuloplasty device), the CardioBand (Edward valve annuloplasty ring), the mitrilign device (mitrilign, mitral valve annulus folding technique). In current clinical practice, devices used for transcatheter mitral valve repair are mostly MitraClip devices proposed by alferi for marginal valve repair, over 80,000 patients have received treatment since the release of MitraClip in 2003 and have obtained FDA approval, and two mitral valve repair devices mitralsti (delta medical-interventional artificial chordal repair) and ValveClamp (maintenance medical-interventional marginal valve repair) developed together by chinese scholars and medical science and technology companies have also progressed.
One of the leading international technologies utilizes the natural orifice of human body to the maximum extent by its unique design, and has good effect on the most of mitral regurgitation. The technique is characterized in that an interatrial septum anchoring device, a coronary sinus great cardiac vein anchoring device and a drafting line connected with the interatrial septum anchoring device and the coronary sinus great cardiac vein anchoring device are implanted through an interventional operation device, and the left atrium and the mitral valve are subjected to physical space remodeling by means of physical tension, so that blood backflow caused by mitral valve insufficiency is reduced or eliminated. In this technique, one anchor needs to be punctured from the jugular vein into the right atrium and then into the great cardiac vein via the coronary sinus ostium, and the other anchor enters the right atrium through the femoral vein and punctures and anchors the interatrial septum, thus providing two approaches. If one access (preferably femoral vein access to right atrial puncture) can be used to anchor one side anchoring device (e.g., one side anchoring device at the interatrial septum) and the opposite side anchoring device can be anchored to the great cardiac vein or heart wall (outside), the surgical path can be greatly simplified, reducing risk and surgical time. In addition, when entering the puncture interatrial space from the femoral vein, the puncture point is generally positioned at the fossa ovalis through the right atrium, but the puncture point is positioned differently due to different individuals and different anatomical structures; while the other side may be in the outer wall of the left atrium (free wall) or the anchoring device of the great cardiac vein, which may cause the tensioned stretching lines (preferably surgical sutures) not to be perpendicular to the anterior and posterior walls of the heart, so that the diagonal drawing of the left atrium of the heart may not have the optimal effect of shortening the anterior and posterior diameters of the heart so as to improve the mitral regurgitation. If the position and the angle of the extension line can be adjusted through design in the process of implanting the instrument, the optimal effect of shortening the anteroposterior diameter of the heart and improving the mitral valve regurgitation can be achieved.

The first room interval anchoring device 1 is provided with two rotatable disc structures 11 which are linked inside and outside, and the central axes of the two disc structures are not coincident; the inner disc 12 is connected to one end of the draft line 3. The two disc structures are respectively arranged at two ends of the atrial septum anchoring device I1, and the inner disc 12 is arranged in the atrial region of the left atrium 5. A locking device 9 for locking the relative position of the drafting line 3 and the inner disc 12 is arranged between the inner disc 12 and the drafting line 3.
As shown in fig. 1, the present invention employs a method of perforation and fixation from inside to outside of the atrium, using an approach (preferably femoral vein into right atrial puncture) to anchor one anchoring device 1 (e.g., one anchoring device 1 at interatrial septum 4) and the opposite anchoring device 2 to the great coronary sinus vein 8 or the heart wall (outside), greatly simplifying the procedure and reducing the risk and time of the procedure. The extension thread 3 is connected to an adjustable curved needle, which penetrates into the great coronary sinus vein 8 from the left atrium 5 and out of the compressible structure 6 of the anchoring device two 2.
The crushable structure 6 may be coated with a water swellable/absorbable material.
As shown in fig. 2, a puncture point of an interatrial septum 4 at one end of a drafting line 3 is provided with an interatrial septum anchoring device I1 at an oval nest, a unidirectional locking anchor 7 with a clamping structure such as an inverted triangle, an agnail or a sphere is arranged on the drafting line 3, and the unidirectional locking anchor 7 is clamped after passing through a hole with a smaller diameter than the unidirectional locking anchor 7 in the interatrial septum 4 anchoring device I1, so that a locking effect is achieved; the anchoring device II 2 at the other end of the drafting line 3 in the outer wall (free wall) of the left atrium 5 or the great cardiac vein 8 can have various bent or spring-shaped deformation structures, so that the heart tissue is prevented from being punctured, meanwhile, the elastic and compliant anchoring device has elasticity, compliance and difficult displacement, and the contact surface is increased to promote endothelialization and post-fixation. The drafting line 3 for tensioning the atrium is attached with one-way locking anchors 7 (such as a cone type, a ball type and the like), and the one-way locking anchors are fixed on the drafting line 3 at equal intervals, so that the stretching device can prevent loosening and falling after tensioning, and plays a role in locking after stretching and shortening the diameter of the front wall and the rear wall of the atrium; the fixed end of the coronary sinus great cardiac vein 8 or the second cardiac wall anchoring device 2 adopts a barb type anchor, the tip is curled inwards after puncture, the damage to the atrial wall or blood vessel is prevented, meanwhile, the contact area with the tissue is increased, the stability is enhanced, the endothelialization coverage of the tissue can be promoted, and the coronary sinus great cardiac vein or the second cardiac wall anchoring device can be fixed in the tissue as early as possible; the fixed end of the coronary sinus great cardiac vein or cardiac wall anchoring device II 2 adopts a spring type anchor (as shown in figure 3) and is fixed by the side face of the spring, thereby preventing the damage to the atrial wall or blood vessel, increasing the contact area with the tissue, enhancing the stability, promoting the endothelialization coverage of the tissue and being fixed in the tissue as early as possible. Two ends of the fixed end of the coronary sinus great cardiac vein or the second cardiac wall anchoring device 2 are fixed by a spring ring structure, and redundant materials can be taken out of the body by adopting a fusing mode.
As shown in fig. 4: the first room interval anchoring device 1 is provided with two rotatable disc structures 11 which are linked inside and outside, and the central axes of the two disc structures 11 are not overlapped; the inner disc 12 is connected to one end of the draft line 3. Two disc structures 11 are respectively arranged at two ends of the interatrial septum anchoring device I1, and an inner disc 12 is arranged in the atrial region of the left atrium 5. A locking device 9 for locking the relative position of the drafting line 3 and the inner disc 12 is arranged between the inner disc 12 and the drafting line 3. The locking device 9 and the disc are combined into a part, and the new combined part can be used as a gasket and can clamp the drafting line; the drafting line 3 is sleeved with a nickel titanium preformed catheter 10, and the drafting line 3 is guided to change the stretching direction (as shown in figure 5).
The eccentric two disk structures 11 can solve the problem that the puncture point is not fixed and the angle is not fixed. Generally, the puncture point is positioned at the fossa ovalis through the right atrium, but the positions of the puncture points are different due to different individuals and different anatomical structures; the other end of the extension line 3 may be in different positions in the outer wall (free wall) of the left atrium or in the fixed anchoring device of the great cardiac vein, which may cause the tensioned extension line (such as a surgical suture line) not to be perpendicular to the anterior and posterior wall surfaces of the heart, thus the diagonal drawing of the left atrium of the heart may not play an optimal role in shortening the anterior and posterior diameters of the heart so as to improve the mitral regurgitation.
The interatrial septum anchoring device 1 is provided with two internally and externally linked disk structures 11 which are not concentric, the position of an inner disk 12 in the left atrium 5 can be adjusted by rotating an outer disk 13, so that the position of a leading-out point of a drawing line 3 (surgical suture) is changed, the tensioned drawing line 3 (surgical suture) is perpendicular to the front wall surface and the rear wall surface of the heart, and the best effect of shortening the front diameter and the rear diameter of the heart and improving the backflow of the mitral valve can be achieved by drawing the left atrium.
