As shown in fig. 2 to 9, the embodiment of the present application discloses a cooling assembly applied to a medical instrument, which may be an endoscope or a snare device for taking out an unwanted object in a human body, and capable of cooling a self-expanding stent 700, the cooling assembly including a base 100 and a cooling tube 200, the cooling tube 200 being provided to pass through the base 100, wherein the base 100 is a base portion of the cooling assembly, which is capable of providing an installation space for the cooling tube 200 and of providing radial support for the cooling tube 200. When the medical device is an endoscope, the base 100 may be an insertion portion of the endoscope, and when the medical device is a snare device, the base 100 may be a catheter of the snare device, and the catheter may be inserted into a human body through an instrument channel of the insertion portion of the endoscope.
The side wall of the cooling pipe 200 includes a first spraying portion 210, the first spraying portion 210 is provided with a plurality of first spraying holes 211 distributed along the circumferential direction of the cooling pipe 200 at intervals, and the first spraying holes 211 penetrate through the side wall of the cooling pipe 200, so that the inner space and the outer space of the cooling pipe 200 are communicated, and after cooling water is introduced into the cooling pipe 200, the cooling water can be sprayed out from the periphery of the cooling pipe 200, so that the inner hole wall of the self-expanding bracket 700 is cooled. Optionally, one or more groups of first spraying holes 211 may be provided, and the groups of first spraying holes 211 are distributed at intervals along the axial direction of the first spraying portion 210, and each group of first spraying holes 211 includes a plurality of first spraying holes 211 distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction of the cooling pipe 200, so that the number of the first spraying holes 211 is more so provided to enhance the cooling effect on the self-expanding bracket 700.
The cooling tube 200 has a first state, in which the distal end of the cooling tube 200 is in a closed state with the cooling tube 200 in the first state, the first spraying portion 210 is located distal to the distal end face of the base 100 and proximal to the closed position of the cooling tube 200, so that cooling water introduced into the cooling tube 200 is not discharged from the distal end nozzle of the cooling tube 200, thereby ensuring the water pressure of the cooling water sprayed from the first spraying holes 211, and the first spraying portion 210 can extend into the self-expanding stent 700, that is, the external dimension of the first spraying portion 210 and the external dimension of the pipe section of the cooling tube 200 located distal to the first spraying portion 210 can be smaller than the internal dimension of the self-expanding stent 700, thereby allowing the first spraying portion 210 to enter the self-expanding stent 700. For example, when the cross section of the first spraying portion 210 is circular, the outer diameter of the first spraying portion 210 is smaller than the inner hole diameter of the self-expanding bracket 700, however, the cross section of the first spraying portion 210 may not be circular, it may be square, etc., and the shape of the first spraying portion 210 is not limited in the present application.
In the present application, the first spraying portion 210 on the cooling tube 200 is provided with the first spraying hole 211, before the self-expanding stent 700 is removed, the cooling tube 200 can be in the first state, the first spraying portion 210 is extended into the self-expanding stent 700, then cooling water is injected into the cooling tube 200, the cooling water is sprayed out through the first spraying hole 211, thereby cooling the self-expanding stent 700, the cooled self-expanding stent 700 can shrink radially, thereby reducing friction and adhesion between the self-expanding stent 700 and surrounding tissues, and then the self-expanding stent 700 is removed by using a removing tool relatively easily, thereby reducing risk of damage to the wall of fistula.
In addition, the first spraying holes 211 of the present embodiment are provided with a plurality of first spraying holes 211, and the plurality of first spraying holes 211 are distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction of the cooling pipe 200, and the cooling water sprayed from the first spraying holes 211 can act on the inner hole wall of the self-expanding bracket 700 from a plurality of directions, so that the self-expanding bracket 700 can be cooled more uniformly, friction and adhesion between each part of the self-expanding bracket 700 in the circumferential direction and surrounding tissues are reduced, and further the risk of damage to the wall of the fistula is reduced.
In some embodiments, the distal end of the cooling tube 200 may have only one closed state, that is, the distal end of the cooling tube 200 may be a closed end that cannot be conducted. Alternatively, the distal end of the cooling tube 200 may be switched between a closed state and an open state, with the distal end of the cooling tube 200 in the open state and the distal end of the cooling tube 200 in conduction. The deformation memory metal stent can be controlled to expand or shrink by the first conductive wire by arranging the deformation memory metal stent at the distal end of the cooling tube 200, so that the inner wall of the distal end of the cooling tube 200 is not attached or attached to each other to switch between the open state and the closed state.
To further enhance the cooling effect on the self-expanding stent 700, referring to fig. 7 to 9, in an alternative embodiment, the cooling tube 200 further includes a second spraying portion 220, the second spraying portion 220 is connected to the distal end of the first spraying portion 210, the second spraying portion 220 may be directly connected to the distal end of the first spraying portion 210 or may be indirectly connected to the distal end of the first spraying portion 210, in the case of indirect connection, a connection tube section of the cooling tube 200 is further provided between the second spraying portion 220 and the distal end of the first spraying portion 210, the distal end of the first spraying portion 210 is directly connected to the connection tube section, and a plurality of second spraying holes 221 are provided on the second spraying portion 220 and distributed along the circumferential direction of the cooling tube 200 at intervals.
The second spray portion 220 is switchable between a contracted state and an expanded state, i.e., the second spray portion 220 has a variability, and the contraction and expansion herein are both relatively speaking, with the second spray portion 220 in the contracted state, the radial maximum dimension of the second spray portion 220 is less than a preset value to enable the second spray portion 220 to enter the self-expanding stent 700. The radial maximum dimension of the second spray portion 220 refers to the dimension of the radially outermost edge of the second spray portion 220 along the cooling tube 200, and for example, when the present embodiment is combined with the embodiment in which the second spray portion 220 includes the water outlet portion 222 and the blocking portion 223", the radial maximum dimension of the second spray portion 220 is the diameter of the water outlet portion 222. The preset value here may be the inner diameter of the self-expanding stent 700, and the radial maximum dimension of the second spray portion 220 may be sufficient to allow the second spray portion 220 to enter the self-expanding stent 700.
In the case where the second spray portion 220 is in the expanded state, the second spray portion 220 is located distally of the first spray portion 210, and the radial maximum dimension of the second spray portion 220 is greater than a preset value so that the second spray holes 221 correspond to the end face of the self-expanding stent 700, i.e., the second spray portion 220 is disposed opposite to the distal end face (right end face in fig. 7, 8) of the self-expanding stent 700 in the axial direction of the cooling tube 200. It should be noted that the self-expanding stent 700 in fig. 7 penetrates the stomach wall 610 and the intrahepatic bile duct wall 620.
The specific working process of this embodiment is as follows, when the self-expanding stent 700 needs to be cooled, the second spraying portion 220 is in a contracted state, so that the distal end of the cooling tube 200 penetrates into the self-expanding stent 700 until the first spraying portion 210 is located in the self-expanding stent 700, then the second spraying portion 220 is switched to an expanded state, at this time, the second spraying portion 220 is located at the distal side of the self-expanding stent 700, and the second spraying holes 221 are corresponding to the distal end face of the self-expanding stent 700, at this time, cooling water is introduced into the cooling tube 200, and not only can be sprayed out from the first spraying holes 211, but also can be sprayed out from the second spraying holes 221, so that the cooling water can cool the distal end face of the self-expanding stent 700 while cooling the inner hole wall of the self-expanding stent 700, which can promote the cooling effect on the self-expanding stent 700, further reduce the friction and adhesion between each part of the self-expanding stent 700 in the circumferential direction and surrounding tissues, and further reduce the risk of wall damage of fistulae.
In addition, the second spraying part 220 is disposed opposite to the distal end surface of the self-expanding stent 700 in the expanded state, so that the second spraying part 220 is in limit fit with the self-expanding stent 700 in the direction extending from the distal end of the cooling tube 200 to the proximal end, and thus the cooling tube 200 is pulled, the cooling tube 200 can apply the force to the self-expanding stent 700 in the direction extending from the distal end of the cooling tube 200 to the proximal end through the second spraying part 220 of the second spraying part, thereby assisting the pulling tool to pull the self-expanding stent 700 out of the fistula, and reducing the difficulty of pulling the self-expanding stent 700 out of the fistula.
Alternatively, the number of the second spraying holes 221 may be multiple groups, and the multiple groups of the second spraying holes 221 are spaced apart in the radial direction of the cooling pipe 200, and each group of the second spraying holes 221 includes a plurality of the second spraying holes 221 spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the cooling pipe 200.
In some embodiments, the cooling assembly may further include a second conductive wire, the deformation memory alloy bracket is disposed in the second spraying portion 220, and the deformation memory alloy bracket is electrically connected to the second conductive wire, and when the deformation memory alloy bracket is in a normal state, the second spraying portion 220 is in the above-mentioned contracted state, and when the deformation memory alloy bracket is energized through the second conductive wire, the deformation memory alloy bracket radially expands, so that the second spraying portion 220 is in the above-mentioned expanded state.
In other embodiments, the second spraying portion 220 is an elastic deformation body, the cooling assembly further includes a traction member, the distal end of the traction member is connected with the distal end of the elastic deformation body, the elastic deformation body is in a contracted state in a natural state, the traction member drives the distal end of the elastic deformation body to move towards the proximal end under the condition that the proximal end of the traction member is pulled, so that the elastic deformation body is radially expanded and deformed, the elastic deformation body is in an expanded state, and the elastic deformation body can be recovered from the expanded state to the contracted state through deformation of the elastic deformation body. The traction element may be a traction rope, a transmission rod with a certain elastic deformation capacity, such as an elongated rod of plastic or metal, a steel wire, etc.
In still other embodiments, the second spray portion 220 is a flexible deformation body, and the cooling assembly further includes a drive rod coupled to a distal end of the flexible deformation body, the drive rod being movable relative to the cooling tube 200 to switch the flexible deformation body between the contracted state and the expanded state.
In an alternative embodiment, in the case that the second spraying part 220 is in the expanded state, the outer circumferential profile of the second spraying part 220 is in a ring shape, and radial dimensions of all parts of the second spraying part 220 in the circumferential direction thereof are greater than a preset value, so that the second spraying holes 221 may be distributed within a range of three hundred sixty degrees, so that the second spraying holes 221 correspond to the parts of the end surface of the self-expanding bracket 700 in the circumferential direction thereof, to more uniformly cool the end surface of the self-expanding bracket 700. Of course, the outer peripheral contour of the second spraying part 220 may not be annular, but may be arc-shaped.
And/or referring to fig. 9, in an alternative embodiment, with the second spray portion 220 in the expanded state, the cross-sectional area of the interior cavity of the second spray portion 220 gradually decreases in a direction extending distally from the proximal end of the second spray portion 220.
Compared with the embodiment of the second spray portion 220 in which the cross-sectional area of the inner cavity is kept constant in the direction extending from the proximal end to the distal end of the second spray portion 220, the volume of the inner cavity of the second spray portion 220 is smaller in this embodiment, and under the condition that the flow rate of the cooling water is unchanged, the cooling water can be quickly filled in the inner cavity of the second spray portion 220 to be sprayed out of the second spray portion 220 more quickly, so that the end face of the self-expanding bracket 700 begins to be cooled only when the temperature of the inner hole wall of the self-expanding bracket 700 is prevented from being lowered to be lower, that is, the temperature difference between the inner hole wall and the end face of the self-expanding bracket 700 is prevented from being excessively large, and thus the uniformity of cooling of the self-expanding bracket 700 is improved.
With continued reference to fig. 9, in an alternative embodiment, the second spraying portion 220 includes a water outlet portion 222 and a blocking portion 223, the plurality of second spraying holes 221 are all disposed in the water outlet portion 222, the water outlet portion 222 is annular, the blocking portion 223 is spherical, a spherical cavity is formed in the blocking portion 223, all portions of the outer edge of the water outlet portion 222 along the circumferential direction thereof radially protrude outside the first spraying portion 210, and the blocking portion 223 is located at the far side of the water outlet portion 222 and is connected with the water outlet portion 222. Specifically, the spherical cavity of the blocking portion 223 is opened toward the water outlet portion 222, and the water outlet portion 222 cooperates with the spherical cavity to form the inner cavity of the second spraying portion 220.
In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of the inner cavity of the second spray portion 220 gradually decreases along the direction extending from the proximal end to the distal end of the second spray portion 220, which can make the volume of the inner cavity of the second spray portion 220 smaller, and under the condition that the flow rate of the cooling water is unchanged, the cooling water can be quickly filled in the inner cavity of the second spray portion 220 to be sprayed out of the second spray portion 220 more quickly, so that the end face of the self-expanding stent 700 begins to cool only when the temperature of the inner hole wall of the self-expanding stent 700 has fallen to be lower, that is, the temperature difference between the inner hole wall and the end face of the self-expanding stent 700 is prevented from being too large, and thus the uniformity of cooling the self-expanding stent 700 is improved.
Referring to fig. 6, in an alternative embodiment, in the case where the second spraying portion 220 is in the contracted state (the state shown in fig. 3 to 6), the second spraying portion 220 is in the folded state, and the folded second spraying portion 220 is sleeved with the first spraying portion 210, the distal end of the cooling tube 200 can be kept in the closed state, and the second spraying portion 220 can be switched from the contracted state to the expanded state (the state shown in fig. 7 to 9) in the case where the cooling tube 200 is supplied with the fluid of the preset pressure.
The specific working process of this embodiment is as follows, a fluid with a preset pressure is introduced into the proximal end of the cooling tube 200, and the fluid flows to the distal end of the cooling tube 200, and since the distal end of the cooling tube 200 is in a closed state, the cooling water acts on the distal end of the cooling tube 200 and applies pressure to the distal end of the cooling tube 200, so that a force is applied to the second spraying portion 220, so that the second spraying portion 220 is not sleeved with the first spraying portion 210 and is located at the distal side of the first spraying portion 210, and at this time, the second spraying portion 220 is switched to an expanded state. It can be seen that, in this embodiment, the second spraying portion 220 can be switched from the contracted state to the expanded state by introducing the fluid with the predetermined pressure into the cooling tube 200, so that no additional driving mechanism (such as the second conductive wire, the traction wire, and the transmission rod) is required, which can simplify the structure of the cooling assembly.
With continued reference to fig. 6, in an alternative embodiment, with the second spray portion 220 in a contracted state, the folded second spray portion 220 covers at least a portion of the first spray holes 211.
If the folded second spraying portion 220 does not cover the first spraying hole 211, when cooling water is introduced into the cooling pipe 200 to enable the second spraying portion 220 to be out of sleeve connection with the first spraying portion 210, the cooling water is decompressed from the first spraying hole 211, so that the acting force of the cooling water on the second spraying portion 220 is reduced, and the effect that the second spraying portion 220 is out of sleeve connection with the first spraying portion 210 is weakened. In this embodiment, the folded second spraying portion 220 is used to cover the first spraying hole 211, so that the pressure of the cooling water leaking from the first spraying hole 211 can be reduced, and even the pressure of the cooling water leaking from the first spraying hole 211 can be avoided, thereby solving the problem of weakening the effect that the second spraying portion 220 is separated from the first spraying portion 210. Of course, the folded second spraying portion 220 may not cover the first spraying hole 211, which is not limited by the present application.
With continued reference to fig. 6, in an alternative embodiment, the folded second spraying portion 220 is sleeved inside the first spraying portion 210, which can prevent the second spraying portion 220 from occupying the external space of the first spraying portion 210, so as to reduce the pipe diameter of the cooling pipe 200, and facilitate the insertion of the cooling pipe 200 into a human body. Of course, the folded second spraying portion 220 may also be sleeved outside the first spraying portion 210, which is not limited by the present application.
Referring to fig. 2-4, in an alternative embodiment, the cooling tube 200 is slidably disposed within the base 100 such that the first spray portion 210 is distal to the distal surface of the base 100 or such that the first spray portion 210 is within the base 100. Illustratively, the base 100 is provided with a through hole 101, and the cooling tube 200 is slidably disposed in the through hole 101, where the through hole 101 may extend from a distal end surface of the base 100 to a distal end surface of the base 100. Of course, the cooling tube 200 may be fixedly disposed on the base 100, and the first spraying portion 210 is always located on the far side of the base 100.
In this embodiment, the first spraying portion 210 may be located in the base 100 before the cooling module is inserted into the human body, which may reduce the length of the portion of the cooling tube 200 protruding from the distal end surface of the base 100, thereby facilitating the insertion of the cooling module into the human body and reducing the risk of damaging human tissue at the portion of the cooling tube 200 protruding from the distal end surface of the base 100.
Referring to fig. 3, 4 and 12, in an alternative embodiment, the cooling assembly further includes a pull-in cord 300, the base 100 is provided with a through channel 102, the through channel 102 is spaced from the cooling tube 200, the pull-in cord 300 includes a collar 310 and an operating portion 320 connected to each other, the collar 310 is disposed at a distal end of the operating portion 320, the operating portion 320 is movably disposed through the through channel 102, and the operating portion 320 is capable of moving relative to the through channel 102, so that the collar 310 is located at a distal side of a distal end surface of the base 100 and is sleeved with the self-expanding stent 700. Alternatively, a penetrating pipe 120 may be disposed on the base 100, where the penetrating pipe 120 penetrates the base 100, and a penetrating channel 102 is formed in the penetrating pipe 120.
In the present application, the pull-out cord 300 is threaded in the threading channel 102, the pull-out cord 300 includes an operation portion 320 and a collar 310 connected to each other, the operation portion 320 is movably threaded in the threading channel 102, and when the operation portion 320 is controlled to move relative to the threading channel 102, the collar 310 can be moved to a distal side of a distal end face of the front end shell and separated from the distal end face of the front end shell, so that the self-expanding stent 700 can be tightly sleeved near the base 100 by using the collar 310, so as to facilitate the removal of the self-expanding stent 700.
In a further embodiment, with collar 310 distal to the distal face of base 100, collar 310 is bent relative to handle 320 such that the space within collar 310 is oriented toward cooling tube 200, with a ninety degree bend angle between collar 310 and handle 320.
In this embodiment, in the case that the collar 310 is located at the distal side of the distal end face of the base 100, the collar 310 is bent with respect to the operation portion 320, so that the space in the collar 310 faces the cooling tube 200, and thus the cooling tube 200 can be extended into the collar 310, and thus the collar 310 can be used to slightly bend the cooling tube 200, so as to change the direction of the distal end of the cooling tube 200, and facilitate the entry of the cooling tube 200 into the inclined expandable stent. And the bending angle between the collar 310 and the operation part 320 is ninety degrees in this embodiment, so that when the collar 310 bends the cooling tube 200, the positive pressure applied by the collar 310 to the cooling tube 200 is perpendicular to the axis of the cooling tube 200, which can enable a large friction force between the collar 310 and the cooling tube 200 to reduce the risk of slipping of the collar 310 relative to the cooling tube 200, thereby stably bending the cooling tube 200. Of course, the bending angle between the collar 310 and the operation portion 320 may be greater or less than ninety degrees, which is not limited by the present application.
In a further embodiment, the pull-cord 300 is made of a memory alloy, and the pull-cord 300 is tensioned to bend the cooling tube 200 in case the pull-cord 300 is sprayed with cooling water.
