Definitions
- the invention relates to a catheter tube with improved properties.
- catheter tubes For use in the field of regional anesthesia, catheter tubes as mono tubes with and without X-ray contrast strips are state of the art.
- materials such as PA, PUR, PTFE, PE, PVC and silicone are used, which, based on their properties - based on regional anesthesia - can be classified as follows:
- the catheter tube If the catheter tube is too soft, it is difficult to place it in the epidural space, especially in difficult anatomical conditions. There is also the risk of incorrect positions, especially lateral aberration, and even the formation of loops and knots.
- catheter tube If the catheter tube is too hard, this means a high risk of intravascular and intrathecal layers as well as nerve irritations, which can be reversible as well as irreversible.
- a low kink stability carries the risk of occlusion of the catheter tube, with the consequences that the patient is not or only insufficiently supplied with analgesics or that pump alarms can occur if infusion pumps are used to apply the anesthetic.
- the prior art has the disadvantage that the medically extremely desirable property of a catheter, namely when it is applied, that is to say when it is introduced into the body, is as stiff as possible, but for the time it remains in the body to protect the tissue and to avoid inflammation to be as flexible as possible, can only be realized to a very limited extent with mono tubes.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a catheter tube with the following properties: constant or specified property level, in particular with regard to the mechanical properties
- Homo-polymers are used for the production of tubular extrudates, especially for medicine, but mostly co-polymers or polymer mixtures. If, however, the range of properties of these materials, which are commercially available as standard, are not sufficient, a considerable effort on the recipe side is usually necessary to achieve the desired property modification.
- the inner surface of the hose must have significantly different properties than the outer surface - for example, if the outer layer is to be easy to glue and the inner layer is to have good resistance to local anesthetics - formulation is no longer appropriate.
- the macroscopic properties of such layer composites such as rigidity or flexural strength, are generally determined by the sum of the proportional material properties.
- US 4,385,632 describes a layer composite for an angulation catheter.
- This catheter tube has a soft, atraumatic tip made exclusively of polyurethane, a transition area and a main tube consisting of a polyamide inner layer and a polyurethane outer layer with an approximate wall thickness ratio of 50:50.
- the aim of this version in the form of a layered composite is to meet the following requirements:
- the present invention aims to achieve catheter properties for the area of regional anesthesia, as described in the task above. This is only possible if new material combinations are achieved via the material properties of the individual layers, which go well beyond the sum of the individual properties. This should only be achievable if the systems show a certain synergistic effect and the materials used are precisely coordinated for the respective application.
- the catheter tube consists of a layer composite of PUR outer layer with PA inner layer.
- the polyamide is selected from the group polyamide 11, polyamide 12 or polyether block amide, the polyurethane from the group polyether polyurethane or polyester polyurethane.
- a catheter tube is as stiff as possible when inserted into the body, but is as flexible as possible for staying in the body.
- These properties which initially seem to be mutually exclusive, can surprisingly be achieved via the material combination according to the invention: PUR becomes flexible and soft primarily through the action of temperature. This process takes place within a few minutes at body temperature. For example, an initial hardness of 60 D at 37 ° C drops to 50 D in about 5 minutes.
- PA is influenced in its flexibility only as a result of moisture absorption, whereby this process takes a much longer time compared to PUR.
- the terschlauches required rigidity on the one hand and the flexibility necessary for staying in the body on the other hand can be set precisely. Furthermore, due to the relative layer thicknesses of the two polymers and the choice of standard types with different Shore hardnesses, not only the flexibility / softness, but also other properties that are important for the use of the catheter tubes can be specifically adjusted, namely the bending stiffness, kink stability, displaceability and the resetting behavior. This option is not available in the currently used anesthesia catheters based on monotubes according to the prior art.
- the desired properties of the catheter tube in the event of fluctuations in the raw material quality can also be advantageously largely ensured by varying the layer thicknesses of the coextruded tube.
- the use of different, common standard raw materials with different mechanical properties makes it possible to change the overall properties of the composite hose considerably, but in a simple manner - without the need for special recipe blends.
- these recipe blends are additionally possible and can bring about further property optimization or fine-tuning of the catheter properties.
- the parameters can be given for a medically determined total wall thickness
- the wall thickness of the Inner tube of 0.08 mm and a wall thickness of the outer tube of 0.12 mm i.e. a wall thickness distribution of 40% PA to 60% PUR.
- wall thickness distributions PA to PUR of approximately 50:50 to 70:30 are preferred according to the invention, since not only the desired bending stiffness but also an optimum in terms of buckling stability, ability to be pushed forward and reset behavior is achieved for most applications.
- composite hoses according to the invention made of a combination of PA inner hose in combination with a PUR outer hose, it is therefore possible not only to achieve the current properties of the PA mono hoses, but also to make significant improvements in quality and properties, as can be seen in the following exemplary embodiment is.
- this has the dimensions 0.85 x 0.45 mm, i.e. an outer wall thickness of 0.85 mm, an inner diameter of 0.45 mm, and thus a wall thickness of 0.20 mm.
- the wall thickness distribution is 30%, PUR outer layer, corresponding to 0.06 mm, and PA inner layer 70%, corresponding to 0.14 mm.
- the table thus shows, for example, that while maintaining the Shore hardness of the pure PA catheter, the bending stiffness can be increased by 50% if an outer layer made of PUR is chosen instead of PA (example 1 to example 6).
- the already mentioned effect occurs that the catheter tube according to the invention is considerably softer than the pure PA catheter tube a short time after application under the influence of the body temperature.
- the following table shows the dependence of the bending stiffness as a function of the PUR Shore hardness, whereby the ratio of the PA inner layer to the PUR outer layer is 70% to 30% remained unchanged.
