- the midpoint of the subsequent ring segment 2 is a closed connection point, and the forming ring body 8 is along the circumference of the ring.
- the tubular spiral structure developed into a flat shape may have an outer diameter of l-3 mm and a uniform pitch.
- the strips forming the spiral are unequal in width, and may have a thickness of usually 0.1 to 0.6 mm and formed by other methods such as laser cutting or stamping.
- Fig. 10 is a strip of sheet material wound with the main structure.
- the main structure is formed into a double-spiral structure by means of a double-plate strip as shown in the figure, so as to increase the resistance of the strip to fatigue. As shown in Fig.
- Figure 11A is a partial schematic view of a double helix structure after rolling. It is also possible to weld the connecting ribs at certain locations of the two spiral structures with reference to Fig. 11B to promote the coordination of the motion between the different helical structures.
- the front ring segment 1, the left ring segment 3 and the right ring segment 4 are flexible, and the strip width is the smallest; the rear ring segment 4 is rigid with respect to the front ring segment 1, the left ring segment 3 and the right ring segment 4, and the strip width is the highest;
- the width of the strip of strip 5 is between the widths of the strips of the two loop segments to which it is attached.
- the outermost layer 6 of the artificial mitral annuloplasty ring provided in this embodiment is a polyester fiber fabric, and has an intermediate layer 7, which is made of a silicone tube, and the main body 8 is curled by a medical cobalt-chromium alloy sheet strip. Formed, a cobalt-chromium alloy wire 9 is disposed in the tubular spiral structure.
- Figure 9 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the closed junction of the forming ring.
- the main body 8 medical cobalt-chromium alloy tubular spiral structure is directly welded to the cobalt-chromium alloy wire 9; the silicone tube as the intermediate layer 7 is tightly sleeved outside the medical nickel-titanium tubular spiral structure 8, and the joint is biocompatible.
- the adhesive is bonded to the joint, and the outer layer 6 is a medical polyester fabric which is directly coated on the silicone tube 7 by a sewing method.
- the mitral annuloplasty ring provided by the embodiment not only helps to maintain the physiological saddle shape with the change of the cardiac cycle, but also ensures the quality of the valve leaf, and the use of the wire can effectively prevent the three-dimensional shaping process and use after the forming ring is cut.
- the structural changes in the process limit the maximum retractable length of the forming ring and prevent the valve leaf from being effectively restrained after prolonged use.
- the present embodiment provides an artificial tricuspid annuloplasty ring having a three-dimensional structure conforming to the physiological shape of the tricuspid valve, as shown in Fig. 12, comprising a front ring segment 1, a rear ring segment 2 and a side ring segment 10.
- the forming ring is developed into a flat tubular spiral structure in the circumferential direction of the ring.
- the strips of the sheet material which are crimped to form the tubular spiral structure are uniform in width, and the rigidity of the strip segments of the tubular spiral structure is adjusted by adjusting the pitch of the different loop segments.
- the front ring segment 1 has a larger pitch and a lower rigidity
- the rear ring segment 2 and a portion of the side ring segment 10 have a smaller pitch and rigidity. Higher.
- the outer layer 6 of the artificial tricuspid annulus provided by the embodiment is a polyester fiber fabric
- the intermediate layer 7 is a silicone tube having an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the main tubular spiral structure
- the main body 8 is a medical nickel-titanium tubular spiral structure. Both ends of the intermediate layer 7 and the outer layer 6 are directly sewn in such a manner that the main tubular spiral structure 8 is wrapped therein.
- a polymer material such as silica gel may be filled in the gap of the sheet metal strip of the tubular spiral structure.
- the arrangement may be, for example,: the tubular structure is detachably filled with a columnar material, and then the tubular spiral is immersed in the glue of the silica gel, and after drying, the internally filled columnar material is extracted to form a gap between the silica gel and the medical nickel-titanium alloy.
- Tubular spiral structure It is also possible to immerse the tubular material in the glue of the silica gel without filling the columnar material, and after drying, form a tubular spiral structure in which the interior is filled with silica gel and the outer part is silica gel and medical nickel-titanium alloy.
- the tricuspid annuloplasty ring provided in this embodiment is advantageous for maintaining the physiological three-dimensional shape with the change of the cardiac cycle, ensuring the quality of the valve leaf, and is applied in the clinical tricuspid valvuloplasty operation, so that it can coordinate with the cardiac cycle.
- the above embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to be limiting; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art The technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may be modified, or some or all of the technical features may be equivalently replaced; and the modifications or substitutions do not deviate from the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention. range.
