Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

BACKGROUND

Vascular stents (or “stents” for short) may be implanted into blood vessels via the vascular interventional procedure for the treatment of a variety of vascular diseases, for example, the blood flow guiding technique treating hemangiomas, and the vascular reconstruction technique treating stenosis or occlusion of the lumens of the blood vessels.


Some problems may be present when a vascular stent is delivered into the blood vessel. For example, upon reaching the treatment site, the stent in a compressed state is restricted from self-expansion due to being affected by torsional stresses. As another example, during stent delivery, a delivery system has poor passibility, poor vessel compliance and poor rotational coaxiality, making it difficult for the surgeon to precisely manipulate the morphology and position of the stent implant within the blood vessel during an interventional procedure.


The poorer control on the stent implant by the above delivery system reduces the stent delivery efficiency, reduces the success rate of the stent arriving at the lesion, and extends the procedure time, resulting in high risks of failure procedure and postoperative complications.


Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new solution for stent delivery.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a beaded component in one viewing angle according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the beaded component is divided into shrinkage sections A and expansion sections B. There are a plurality of shrinkage sections A and a plurality of expansion sections B, which are in staggered distribution. The expansion section B has a spindle-like shape, that, the expansion section B has a thicker middle and two thinner ends.


As shown in FIG. 1, the beaded component includes an expandable body 1 and a plurality of shaping assemblies 2a, 2b and 2c. Wherein, a plurality of shaping assemblies 2a, 2b, and 2c are used to form shrinkage sections A, and an expansion section B formed between two adjacent shrinkage sections A.



FIG. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the beaded component in another viewing angle according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, each shaping assembly includes a first part 201. The first part 201 has a columnar inner cavity, wherein a partial section of the expandable body 1 is bundled within the columnar inner cavity.


Since the first part 201 is sectioned in FIG. 2, upper and lower halves of the first part 201 are shown in FIG. 2. It will be readily understood that in a practical structure, the upper and lower halves of the first part 201 are an integral.


In the embodiment, the first part 201 has a cylinder shape. In other embodiments, the shape of the first part 201 may also be a prism, a sphere, or a truncated cone, etc.


In the present embodiment, an inner cavity of the first part 201 is cylindrical. That is, the first part 201 is a round tubular part as a whole. In other embodiments, the inner cavity of the first part 201 may also be in prism or other shapes.


In this embodiment, the first part employs a metallic material or a polymeric material.


In the embodiment, each shaping assembly 2 further includes a second part 202. The second part 202 is a tubular part. The shrinkage section of the beaded component is sheathed within the second part 202.


Since the second part 202 is sectioned in FIG. 2, upper and lower halves of the second part 202 are shown in FIG. 2. It will be readily understood that in a practical structure, the upper and lower halves of the second part 202 are an integral.


In the embodiment, the second part 202 employs a polymeric material. More specifically, the second part 202 is a heat shrink tube, which has the characteristics of heat shrinkage. In other embodiments, the second part 202 may also employs a metallic material.


In one example, the material of the second part is selected from a polyolefin material, fluorinated ethylene propylene copolymer, neoprene, or fluorine rubber.


In the embodiment, the second part 202 is connected to the first part 201 or the expandable body 1 in a hot melt manner. That is, the second part 202 is a heat shrink tube, which is heated after the shrinkage section is sheathed into the second part 202 such that the second part 202 is connected to the first part 201 and the expandable body 1. In other embodiments, the second part is connected to the first part or the expandable body in a manner of welding, bonding, tight fit, etc.


In the embodiment, the diameter of the columnar inner cavity of the first part 201 is smaller than the outer diameter of the expandable body 1 in an expansion state. Thus, the partial section of the expandable body 1 is bundled within the columnar inner cavity of the first part 201 in a compressed state.


In the embodiment, the partial section of the expandable body is bundled within the columnar inner cavity such that the partial section of the expandable body shrinks, thereby forming a beaded component. When a stent is delivered using the beaded component, on the one hand, the expansion of the beaded component facilitates smooth release of the stent to make the stent completely fit with the lesional vessel. On the other hand, since the shaping assemblies make the partial section of the expandable body shrink, the contact area of the expandable body with the inner walls of other devices or the inner wall of the blood vessel is reduced, thereby reducing accidental damage to the lining of the blood vessel. Meanwhile, the expansion section of the expandable body may correspondingly deform according to the course and shape of the vessel, thereby being beneficial to reducing stent delivery resistance and improving stent delivery smoothness. Disposing the second parts 202, i.e., using the shaping assemblies with a double-layer structure, further facilitates the stability and reliability of the beaded component.


Furthermore, the beaded component may be formed by using the above shaping assemblies on the basis of the existing expandable body without changing the existing manufacturing method of the expandable body, and the beaded component has simple structure, high manufacturability and high reliability.


In the embodiment in which the second part employs the heat shrink tube, the hot melt connection manner does not involve production particles caused by welding or bonding connection manner, to avoid the danger to human health by preventing the production particles from falling into the blood vessels. Furthermore, due to the wrapping of the second part on the outermost layer, the risk that the part material enters the blood vessels may be further reduced.


In the embodiment, two ends of the second part 202 both have chamfering structures 202a. The chamfering structure 202a may provide a smooth transition between the outer surface of the second part 202 and the outer surface of the expandable body 1 in a form of slope. It should be noted that the chamfering structure in the present disclosure may be any beveled structure capable of achieving the smooth transition, which may be formed in other manners besides cutting. For example, the chamfering structure may be formed by injection molding. For another example, the chamfering structure may be formed by hot molding, such as the chamfering structure 202a in FIG. 2.


It is advantageous to further reduce the resistance during stent delivery by providing the chamfering structure at the end parts of the second part. In the embodiment, three partial sections of the expandable body 1 are bundled within the columnar inner cavities of the first shaping assembly 2a, the second shaping assembly 2b, and the third shaping assembly 2c in sequence. In other embodiments, inner surfaces of a plurality of sections of the expandable body may be fixedly connected to columnar outer surfaces of a plurality of shaping assemblies.


In the embodiment, the expandable body 1 is a meshed tube. In other embodiments, the expandable body 1 may also be a solid-wall tube or an expandable balloon. Under the condition that the expandable body is an expandable balloon, the amounts of expansion of the respective expansion sections of the beaded balloon can be limited by controlling the distance between the shaping assemblies, and the delivery capability of a delivery system in an axial direction may also be improved by controlling the value of pressure charged into the balloon in combination with a beaded structure.


In the embodiment, a distance L between two adjacent shaping assemblies satisfies equation (1):






L>D  (1)


wherein D is an outer diameter of the second part. As shown in FIG. 1, the distance L between two shaping assemblies is the distance between opposite end surfaces of two shaping assemblies. By designing the distance L between two adjacent shaping assemblies to satisfy equation (1), it is ensured that the diameter of each expansion section is greater than the diameter of each shrinkage section, thereby forming the beaded structure.



FIG. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a beaded component in one viewing angle according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure. This embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the first part 201 has a columnar outer surface, and a plurality of sections of the expandable body 1 is fixedly connected to the columnar outer surface. That is, the first part in the first embodiment is disposed outside the expandable body, while the first part in this embodiment is disposed within the expandable body. Furthermore, the second part 202 in this embodiment is disposed on the outer surface of the expandable body 1.


In the embodiment, the first part 201 has a cylindrical outer surface. Furthermore, similar to the first embodiment, the first part 201 also has a cylindrical penetrating inner cavity, i.e., the first part 201 is a circular tubular part as a whole.


In the embodiment, the inner surface of the partial section of the expandable body 1 is fixedly connected to the columnar outer surface of the first part 201 in a bonding manner. For example, the inner surface of the partial section of the expandable body 1 is coated with an adhesive and is press-fitted to the columnar outer surface of the first part 201, so that the inner surface of the partial section is fixedly connected to the columnar outer surface. Alternatively, the columnar outer surface of the first part 201 is coated with an adhesive, and the inner surface of the partial section of the expandable body 1 is press-fitted to the columnar outer surface of the first part 201 so that the inner surface of the partial section is fixedly connected to the columnar outer surface. In other embodiments, the inner surface of the partial section of the expandable body 1 and the columnar outer surface of the first part 201 can also be fixedly connected in a manner of welding, hot melt, etc.


In the embodiment, two ends of the second part 202 are likewise have chamfering structures 202a.


In the embodiment, the inner surfaces of a purity of sections of the expandable body are fixedly connected to the columnar outer surfaces of the first parts such that a purity of sections of the expandable body shrink, thereby forming a beaded component. Moreover, the second part wraps the connection region of the first part and the expandable body at the outermost layer. Thus, the beaded component in the embodiment can achieve similar technical effects as in the first embodiment, which will not be repeated herein.


Furthermore, since the first part in this embodiment is disposed within the expandable body, the first part in this embodiment can prevent further shrinkage of the expandable body at the position where the expandable body connects with the first part, which avoids detachment of the expandable body from the shaping assemblies due to the shrinkage of the expandable body when a tight fit connection is adopted, thereby improving the structure stability.



FIG. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a beaded component in one viewing angle according to a third embodiment of the present disclosure. This embodiment differs from the second embodiment in that the first part 201 in the second embodiment has the penetrating inner cavity, while the first part 201 in this embodiment has a solid structure.


The first part in this embodiment employs the solid structure, which is advantageous in reducing the manufacturing difficulty and increasing the structural strength of the beaded component.



FIG. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a beaded component in one viewing angle according to a fourth embodiment of the present disclosure. The beaded component in this embodiment differs from the beaded component in the first embodiment in that the beaded component in this embodiment includes two expandable bodies, i.e., a first expandable body 1a and a second expandable body 1b.


In this embodiment, the second expandable body 1b is sheathed in the first expandable body 1a, and a partial section of the second expandable body 1b is bundled within the columnar inner cavity of the first part 201. In this way, it is advantageous to improve the bending resistance and kinking resistance of the beaded component.


A fifth embodiment of the present disclosure provides a manufacturing method of a beaded component, including the following steps.


First, tightening an expandable body. For example, stretch the expandable body to make the expandable body tightened.


Second, sheathing the expandable body in at least two first parts, or place at least two first parts are inside the expandable body.


Third, fixedly connecting columnar inner cavity or columnar outer surface of the first part to the expandable body. For example, a columnar inner cavity or a columnar outer surface of first part is fixedly connected to the expandable body in a manner of welding, bonding, hot melt, or tight fit.


Thereafter, sheathing the junction of the first parts and the expandable body in the at least two second parts.


Finally, fixedly connecting the second parts to the first parts or the expandable body to obtain the beaded component. For example, the first parts and the expandable body are fixedly connected to the second parts, respectively in a hot melt manner.


In some optional embodiments, the second part is a heat shrink tube. The step of fixedly connecting the second parts to the first parts or the expandable body includes: heating the second parts to cause the second parts to be connected to the first parts or the expandable body in a hot melt manner.



FIG. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of a stent delivery system in one viewing angle according to a sixth embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 6, the stent delivery system includes a delivery catheter 4, a delivery guidewire 3, and a beaded component 6, wherein the beaded component 6 includes an expandable body 1 and a plurality of shaping assemblies 2.


In this embodiment, a distal end of the delivery guidewire 3 (i.e., the left end in FIG. 6) is fixedly connected to a proximal end of the beaded component 6 (i.e., the right end in FIG. 6). The beaded component 6 is positioned within the delivery catheter 4 and is in a compressed state.


In some optional embodiments, the stent delivery system further includes a stent 5. The stent 5 is positioned between the delivery catheter 4 and the beaded component 6 and is in a compressed state.


In the stent delivery process, the delivery catheter 4 may firstly be delivered into the human body, and a distal opening of the delivery catheter 4 is positioned nearby a target position. Then, the delivery guidewire 3 may be pushed to deliver the beaded component 6 connected thereto distally, and the beaded component 6 drive the stent 5 to move jointly.


After the stent 5 reaches the distal opening of the delivery catheter 4, the delivery guidewire 3 continues to be pushed to gradually move the beaded component 6 and the stent 5 out of the delivery catheter 4. Due to the self-expansion characteristic of the expandable body 1, the expansion sections of the beaded component 6 which have moved out of the catheter may expand in a radial direction and drive the stent 5 in which the expansion sections sheathed to expand, so that the stent 5 is smoothly released.


In some optional embodiments, the stent delivery system further includes a delivery clip 8.
