- the control device 40 sends a command to the driving means 6 so that the flow blocking unit 5 is in a closed state in which the flow of the drug solution is shut off (S7). This is often the case in the process of injecting chemicals. In this state, the body fluid of the subject does not flow backward to the upstream of the flow blocking unit 5, that is, at least the most downstream of the common conduit section 30.
- the injection of the chemical is continued (S5).
- the state is abnormal, such as a shortage of the filled chemical solution or leakage of the chemical solution.

Also, when the pressure becomes lower than a predetermined pressure (Psafe), a command is sent to the driving means 6 so that the flow shutoff unit 5 is in a closed state for shutting off the flow of the chemical solution (S7).
- the timing at which the control device 40 sends commands for the step of opening the flow blocking unit 5 to allow the flow of the chemical solution (S3) and the step of closing the flow blocking unit 5 to close the flow of the chemical solution (S7) is as follows.

- a command to close the flow shutoff unit 5 after a predetermined second predetermined time has elapsed after the injection of the drug solution is completed may be sent. Good.
- the first predetermined time is a time in which a predetermined pressure is applied so that the pressure in the common pipeline increases in a state where the flow blocking unit 5 is in a closed state for blocking the flow of the chemical solution. More specifically, during the first predetermined time, the flow shutoff unit 5 is closed as a pressurizing phase that is performed before the actual liquid medicine is injected into the subject from a state in which the liquid medicine is not flown into the pipe at all. In a state where the state is in a state, a small amount of the chemical is flowed at a predetermined injection speed to reach the flow shutoff unit 5, and the pressure in the chemical injection line up to the flow shutoff unit 5 is increased to a predetermined pressure.

Specifically, since the rate of pressure decrease can be predicted for a certain time from the completion of the injection of the drug solution as the second predetermined time, the speed is grasped in advance and assumed after completion of the injection of the drug solution.
- the time is determined based on preliminary measurement performed in advance as a time during which a predetermined pressure (Psafe) higher by several tens of kilopascals [kPa] (several pounds square inches [psi]) than the measured intravascular pressure can be ensured.

On the other hand, conversely, after the injection of the drug solution, after a certain time has elapsed after the injection is completed and the first motor 23 and the second motor 24 are stopped, the first piston 52a and the second piston 52b are simultaneously driven.
- the flow path 52c of the first piston 52a on the downstream side is closed, and then the flow path 52d of the second piston 52b on the upstream side is closed to close the flow shutoff unit 5. That is, by adjusting the operation timings of the first piston 52a and the second piston 52b, and the cross-sectional area of the flow path 52c of the first piston 52a and the cross-sectional area of the flow path 52d of the second piston 52b, as described above, When the shut-off valve 52 is opened, the flow path is made to communicate from the upstream side to the downstream side of the piston constituting the shut-off valve 52 in order.

- Typical examples of this type of pump are a roller pump and a finger pump.
- the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84 will be described as an example.
- Each of the first container 81 and the second container 82 may be a hard resin container or a flexible bag-shaped resin container. The material does not matter.
- the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84 are respectively connected to the conduit of the first chemical liquid line 31 joined to the opening 81a of the first container 81 of the common conduit section 30 and the second conduit 82 joined to the opening 82a of the second container 82.

- the two chemical liquid lines 32 are fixedly disposed so as to be wound around the rotating body 85.
- FIG. 9 is a functional configuration diagram in which the roller pump 83 is enlarged. Since the roller pump 84 has the same configuration, the description of the roller pump 83 will be replaced with the description of the roller pump 84.
- the roller pump 83 has a rotating body 85.

- At least two pressing portions 85a and 85b, which are projections, are provided on a circumference centered on the rotation center of the rotating body 85 so that the arc distance is equal. That is, the two pressing portions 85a and 85b are arranged at a central angle of 180 degrees on a circumference centered on the rotation center of the rotating body 85. For example, when three pressing parts are arranged, they are arranged at a central angle of 120 degrees, and when four pressing parts are arranged, they are arranged at a central angle of 90 degrees.

- the section 31b is made. On both sides of the section 31b, an upstream section 31a and a downstream section 31c are completed. In this state, for example, when the rotating body 85 is rotated clockwise in FIG. 9 (in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 9), the pressing portion 85a moves on the section 31b while pressing the conduit of the first chemical liquid line 31.
- the pressing portion 85b pushes the pipeline of the first chemical liquid line 31 so that the pressing portion 85b pumps the chemical in the pipeline of the first chemical liquid line 31 above the section 31b.

- the control for the operation of the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84 by the control device 40 is the same as in the first embodiment. That is, the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84 that have received the instruction from the control device 40 perform a predetermined sequence between the pressing portion 85a and the pressing portion 85b between the pipeline of the first chemical liquid line 31 and the second chemical liquid line 32. The pressure in the pipeline corresponding to the section 31b is reduced.
- the central processing unit 41 of the control device 40 drives the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84
- the central processing unit 41 outputs electric signals (input to the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84) that are input to the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84.
- the pressure in the chemical solution injection pipe is determined as shown in FIG. 3A as in the first embodiment.
- the electric signal input to the roller pump 83 and the roller pump 84 reaches the value (time T1 elapses) when the pressure in the chemical liquid injection pipe reaches a value corresponding to the predetermined pressure (Psafe)
- the common pipe section 30 The pressure becomes higher than that of the replacement pipe section 10. Therefore, the control device 40 sends a command to the driving means 6 to open the flow blocking unit 5 in the closed state. In this state, the body fluid of the subject does not flow backward to the upstream of the flow blocking unit 5, that is, at least the most downstream of the common conduit section 30.
- FIG. 10 shows a flowchart of a sequence for refilling the first syringe 21 or the second syringe 22 with the chemical solution.
- the control device 40 Since the pressure in the chemical injection line has decreased to a predetermined pressure (Psafe), the control device 40 is instructed to close the flow cutoff unit 5, and the flow cutoff unit 5 is closed. (S7 in FIG. 3B).
- This embodiment proceeds after this step. First, it is confirmed that the flow blocking unit 5 is in the closed state, and the flow blocking unit 5 is maintained in the closed state (S11). Subsequently, the first chemical liquid valve 34a is opened to communicate the first chemical liquid bag 34 with the first chemical liquid line 31, and the second chemical liquid valve 36a is opened to communicate the second chemical liquid bag 36 with the second chemical liquid line 32 (S12). ).
- the process of opening the first chemical liquid valve 34a and the second chemical liquid valve 36a becomes unnecessary. Since the shutoff unit 5 is closed, the first chemical solution bag 34 flows toward the first syringe 21 via the first chemical solution line 31 in each of the first chemical solution line 31 and the second chemical solution line 32, The two chemical liquid bags 36 have a pressure gradient that can flow toward the second syringe 22 via the second chemical liquid line 32. In this state, a command is issued from the central processing unit (CPU) 41 of the control device 40 to rotate the first motor 23 and the second motor 24 in reverse. The first motor 23 and the second motor 24 that have received the command retract the piston 21c of the first syringe 21 or the piston 22c of the second syringe 22 in a predetermined sequence.
- CPU central processing unit
- the pressure in the liquid medicine injection conduit including the first syringe 21 or the second syringe 22 gradually decreases, and the first liquid medicine flows from the first liquid medicine line 31 to the first syringe 21 and the second liquid medicine flows into the second syringe 21.
- the liquid is sucked into the second syringe 22 of the chemical liquid line 32 (S13). It is determined whether a predetermined amount of the first chemical solution has been filled in the first syringe 21 with a predetermined amount of the second chemical solution, and if the second syringe 22 has not been filled yet, the filling is further continued.
- the filling is completed (S14). If the first syringe 21 has been filled with a predetermined amount of the second solution in the first syringe 21, the first solution valve 34 a is closed and the first solution bag 34 is moved to the first solution when the filling is completed.
- the second chemical solution valve 36a is closed from the line 31, and the second chemical solution bag 36 is isolated from the second chemical solution line 32 (S15). If the first chemical liquid valve 34a and the second chemical liquid valve 36a are not one-way valves but one-way valves, the process of closing the first chemical liquid valve 34a and the second chemical liquid valve 36a (S15) becomes unnecessary.
- the pressure of the pipeline is locally (for example, D2 in FIG. 1) within the pipeline of the common pipeline 30. May be lower than the intravascular pressure of the subject, and the body fluid of the subject may flow back to the common conduit 30.
- the first syringe 21 is filled with a predetermined amount of the first solution into the first syringe 21 and the second syringe 22 is filled with the second solution by a predetermined amount. It is necessary to pressurize to a higher predetermined pressure (Psafe). Then, a command is issued from the central processing unit (CPU) 41 of the control device 40 to the first motor 23 and the second motor 24 to rotate forward.
- CPU central processing unit
- the first motor 23 and the second motor 24 that have received the command advance the piston 21c of the first syringe 21 or the piston 22c of the second syringe 22 in a predetermined sequence, and a predetermined pressure higher than the intravascular pressure of the subject.
- the pressure is increased to the pressure (Psafe) (S16).
- the control device 40 in the first embodiment sets the flow blocking unit 5 to an open state that allows the flow of the drug solution (S3).
- the timing of sending the command of the step (S7) of closing the flow blocking unit 5 to close the flow of the chemical solution (S7) the pressure in the chemical solution injection pipe may be actually measured, or the chemical solution injection may be performed.
- a technique that does not directly measure the pressure in the pipeline can be adopted as it is.
- the pressure of the common conduit 30 is higher than that of the replacement conduit 10, and the body fluid of the subject does not flow back to the common conduit 30. From here, it is possible to restart the sequence from S1 in FIG. 3B.

Abstract
Description
続いて、この実施の形態について、以下、それぞれの具体的な実施例として説明する。
以下、まず本願発明の第1実施例について図1から図4を参照して説明する。第1実施例は、実施の形態のうち、シリンジを採用したタイプである。図1は、第1実施例の薬液注入装置1aの全体構成図を示している。薬液注入装置1aは、取替管路部10と、薬液注入器20と、共通管路部30と、制御装置40と、を備えている。取替管路部10と、共通管路部30とが薬液注入管路を形成し、取替管路部10は被検者ごとに交換され、一方共通管路部30は複数の被検者に共通的に使用されるものである。取替管路部10は被検者の体液が逆流する可能性がある管路の領域であり、共通管路部30は被検者の体液が逆流しない領域として区別して定義する。薬液注入装置1aでは、薬液注入器20から供給された薬液が、薬液注入管路である共通管路部30にまず流れ込み、共通管路部30から取替管路部10へと流れるように構成される。
第2所定時間は、前記薬液注入器から薬液の供給の完了と同時または前記流れ遮断ユニットを前記薬液の流れを遮断する閉状態とした状態で前記共通管路部内の圧力が高い状態が確保された一定の時間である。具体的には、第2所定時間としての薬液の注入の完了からの一定の時間は、圧力の減少速度が予測できることから、予めその速度を把握しておき、薬液の注入を完了した後から仮定した血管内圧力より数十キロパスカル[kPa](数ポンド平方インチ[psi])程度高い所定の圧力(Psafe)となることが確保できる時間として予め実施する予備計測に基づいて定められる。また、薬液の注入の完了と同時の場合には、薬液が完了した直後では、血管内圧力より数十キロパスカル[kPa](数ポンド平方インチ[psi])程度高い所定の圧力(Psafe)となっていることが確保されている。薬液の注入後はここから圧力が減少するから薬液が完了した直後が最も高い圧力が確保されていることになる。したがって、このように制御装置40により流れ遮断ユニット5を動作させることで、流れ遮断ユニット5の上流、すなわち少なくとも共通管路部30の最も下流まで被検者の体液が逆流することはない。
薬液注入器20は、シリンジ以外の態様も採用できる。以下、薬液注入器20として、シリンジ以外の態様の第2実施例について図5を参照して説明する。第2実施例は、実施の形態のうち、薬液を保持した容器の内部を加圧して薬液の吐出を行なう加圧装置を薬液供給手段として使用したタイプである。図5は、第2実施例の薬液注入装置1bの全体構成図を示している。薬液注入装置1bは、取替管路部10と、薬液注入器20と、共通管路部30と、制御装置40と、を備えている点で第1実施例と同じであり、薬液注入器20から供給された薬液が、薬液注入管路である共通管路部30にまず流れ込み、共通管路部30から取替管路部10へと流れるように構成される点も同じである。第2実施例でも、取替管路部10と、共通管路部30とが薬液注入管路を形成し、取替管路部10は被検者ごとに交換され、一方共通管路部30は複数の被検者に共通的に使用されるものである。以下、第2実施例について、第1実施例と異なる点について説明する。それ以外は、第1実施例の構成がそのまま適用可能である。
薬液注入器20の第1容器61と第2容器62とを可撓性のあるバッグ状の樹脂容器とした場合には以下の態様も採用できる。以下、第3実施例について図6と図7Aおよび図7Bとを参照して説明する。第3実施例は、実施の形態のうち、薬液を保持した容器の外部を押圧することにより容器内を加圧して薬液の前記吐出を行なう加圧装置を薬液供給手段として使用したタイプである。第3実施例は第2実施例を変更させたものである。図6は、第3実施例の薬液注入装置1cの全体構成図を示している。薬液注入装置1cは、取替管路部10と、薬液注入器20と、共通管路部30と、制御装置40と、を備えている点で第1実施例と同じであり、薬液注入器20から供給された薬液が、薬液注入管路である共通管路部30にまず流れ込み、共通管路部30から取替管路部10へと流れるように構成される点も同じである。第3実施例でも、取替管路部10と、共通管路部30とが薬液注入管路を形成し、取替管路部10は被検者ごとに交換され、一方共通管路部30は複数の被検者に共通的に使用されるものである。以下、第3実施例について、第2実施例と異なる点について説明する。それ以外は、第2実施例の構成がそのまま適用可能である。
続いて、第4実施例について図8と図9とを参照して説明する。第4実施例は、実施の形態のうち、下流側の管路を減圧して薬液を圧送するタイプである。図8は、第4実施例の薬液注入装置1dの全体構成図を示している。薬液注入装置1dは、取替管路部10と、薬液注入器20と、共通管路部30と、制御装置40と、を備えている点で第1実施例と同じであり、薬液注入器20から供給された薬液が、薬液注入管路である共通管路部30にまず流れ込み、共通管路部30から取替管路部10へと流れるように構成される点も同じである。第4実施例でも、取替管路部10と、共通管路部30とが薬液注入管路を形成し、取替管路部10は被検者ごとに交換され、一方共通管路部30は複数の被検者に共通的に使用されるものである。以下、第4実施例について、第3実施例と異なる点について説明する。第4実施例の薬液注入装置1dでは、薬液供給手段としてローラポンプ83とローラポンプ84とを使用したものである。それ以外は、第3実施例の構成がそのまま適用可能である。
次に、本発明の別の実施形態について説明する。ここで説明する実施の形態では、前述の本発明の実施の形態の第1実施例の薬液注入装置1aと同じ構成である。この実施の形態では、図3Bのフローチャートにおいて、所定量の薬液が未だ注入されていない段階であるが、薬液の注入が完了する前に薬液注入管路内の圧力が所定の圧力(Psafe)になり(時間T4経過時点)で流れ遮断ユニット5が閉状態にされた後のシーケンスである。すなわち、所定量の薬液が未だ注入されていないので、第1シリンジ21に第1薬液を、第2シリンジ22に第2薬液を再充填するシーケンスである。図10を参照して、この実施の形態について説明する。ここでは、前述の本発明の実施の形態の第1実施例の装置の構成をそのまま参照して説明する。図10は、第1シリンジ21または第2シリンジ22に、薬液を再充填するシーケンスのフローチャートを示している。
