TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to a connecting structure of a stent and a valve leaflet for interventional pulmonary valves and interventional aortic valves, and an interventional pulmonary valve and an interventional aortic valve applying the connecting structure.

BACKGROUND ART

The first report of success in transcatheter pulmonary valve intervention was in 2000, a valve known as Melody™ transcatheter pulmonary valve (shown in FIG. 1). Subsequently, it was approved by FDA Humanitarian Exemption Device Approval (HDE) in 2010 and approved again by PMA application in 2015, which became officially used for interventional therapy of pulmonary valve dysfunction (valve stenosis and/or insufficiency) after right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in complex congenital heart disease. The bioprosthetic valve tissue is derived from bovine jugular vein valve. Subsequently, the application of transcatheter aortic valve (TAVR) has been successful. After nearly 20 years of development, the interventional valve has become mature for the treatment of elderly patients with aortic valve.

China is a large country with nearly 1.4 billion people. There are nearly 1 million children with birth defects each year, involving pulmonary valve birth defects, belonging to complex congenital heart disease (referred to as complex CHD). According to “Report on Cardiovascular Disease in China (2017)”, 200 million patients with congenital heart disease in China, about ⅕ of them have complex congenital heart disease. For most of these children, surgical reconstruction of the pulmonary valve and the main pulmonary artery is the only effective treatment. In order to solve this problem, the applicant has a patent entitled “Artificial Pulmonary Artery Valved Duct (ZL 200710064337.9)” for cardiac surgery implantation to reconstruct the right ventricular outflow tract and pulmonary valve, which was approved for registration and marketing in December 2016.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a connecting structure of a stent and a valve leaflet for an interventional aortic valve or an interventional pulmonary valve, and an interventional aortic valve and an interventional pulmonary valve using the connecting structure. The following detailed description illustrates specific embodiments with the understanding that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to be limiting thereof. The connecting structure of the stent and the valve leaflet can be used for interventional pulmonary valves and interventional aortic valves.

EXAMPLE 1: INTERVENTIONAL AORTIC VALVE

The interventional aortic valve has a “lower” end and an “upper” end. In the context of this application, the terms “lower” and “upper” are used interchangeably with the terms “inflow” and “outflow”, respectively. Thus, for example, the lower end of the interventional aortic valve is its inflow end and the upper end of the interventional aortic valve is its outflow end.

Referring to FIG. 2, there is shown a schematic view of an interventional aortic valve structure for interventional therapy of an artificial bioprosthetic heart valve according to an example of the present invention, comprising a stent 10 that can be radially compressible and in a slightly flaring shape after being expanded by a balloon, three fan-shaped valve leaflets 20 arranged on the inner side of the stent 10, the three fan-shaped valve leaflets 20 are respectively provided with a free edge 21, an arc-shaped bottom edge 22 and valve leaflet junction connecting parts 23 extending on the two sides (referring to FIG. 3). Referring further to FIG. 6, the stent is a metal mesh tube, wherein three connecting posts 11 are uniformly distributed on the metal mesh tube, six columns of axial supporting rods 12 are uniformly distributed among the three connecting posts 11, three rows of circumferential supporting rods 13, 14 and 15 transversely penetrating and extending are arranged between the connecting posts 11 and the six columns of axial supporting rods 12, and the lower first row of circumferential supporting rods 13 defines the inflow end of the stent 10, the second row of circumferential supporting rods 14 and the third row of circumferential supporting rods 15 spaced from the first row of circumferential supporting rods 13 define the outflow end of the stent. Each row of circumferential supporting rods is formed by connecting supporting rods EE with multiple constituent angles, each group of supporting rods EE is in the shape of a deformable V, the deformation angle is 0-90 degrees, and each group of circumferential supporting rods of the first row of circumferential supporting rods 13 and the second row of circumferential supporting rods 14 are arranged in parallel and opposite to the direction of each group of circumferential supporting rods of the third row of circumferential supporting rods 15 to form a plurality of grids which can be synchronously deformed. The stent made of the metal mesh tube can adapt to a use mode that an interventional aortic valve is longitudinally compressed and then expanded during interventional therapy. Further, the upper portion of the connection post 11 is provided with two rows of eight holes 16 for fixedly connecting the fan-shaped valve leaflets by sutures. In the plurality of grids of the stent 11, a coating membrane 17 is sewn between the first row of circumferential supporting rods 13 and the second row of circumferential supporting rods 14. The coating membrane on the body wall of the stent is sewn between the first row of circumferential supporting rods and the third row of circumferential supporting rods. In some cases, an outside coating membrane (not shown) is further sewn to the outside at the same location as desired. The material of the coating membrane can be animal-derived tissues or medical polymer materials which would occur to a person skilled in the art.

Referring again to FIGS. 2 and 4A-B, FIG. 5, the junction connecting part 23 of the fan-shaped valve leaflet 20 is first aligned in two pairs, and then folded outwardly two times each and then fitted into alignment with the fan-shaped valve leaflet 20 and secured by sutures, such that a section of cushioning portion 24 is formed at the root of the free edge of the valve leaflet, and the cushioning portion 24 is further secured to the connecting post 11 of the stent by sutures, and the arc-shaped bottom edge of the fan-shaped valve leaflet can also be coated with a reinforced coating membrane 25, and a coating membrane further sewn on the body wall of the stent through the coating membrane 25. Thus, an interventional aortic valve according to examples of the present invention is formed. Of course, if necessary, it is also possible to fold the junction connecting part only once to form the cushioning portion, but the cushioning portion is slightly lower in use effect than the cushioning effect of the two folds due to the fact that the rounded corners R naturally formed after the two folds are not formed.

When the valve leaflets of the interventional aortic valve are opened, due to the existence of the cushioning portion 24, the valve leaflets can be prevented from being rubbed or scratched by the metal stent in the opening and closing processes; and due to the fact that the connecting posts in the connecting structure are double rows of holes routing, the sutures at the seams of the junction connecting parts of the valve leaflets are fully fixed with the holes or the rectangular frame, stress concentration of the valve leaflets in the opening and closing processes can be avoided, use durability of the interventional aortic valve or the interventional pulmonary valve is improved, and a durable effect equivalent to that of a surgical valve is achieved.

EXAMPLE 2: INTERVENTIONAL AORTIC VALVE

The interventional aortic valve of the example has a stent structure different from that of Example 1, and other structures are substantially the same as those of Example 1. In some cases, a larger outflow end and a larger stent height are required. Referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, in this example, the stent 50 is a metal mesh tube having three connecting posts 51 evenly distributed thereon, the stent is provided with four rows of transversely extending circumferential supporting rods 52, 53, 54 and 55 and a plurality of axial supporting rods 56 arranged between the circumferential supporting rods, wherein the lower first and second row of circumferential supporting rods 52, 53 define the inflow end of the stent, the third and fourth row of circumferential supporting rods 54, 55 define the outflow end of the stent, each row of circumferential supporting rods consists of a plurality of groups of angular supporting rods EE connected together, and each group of supporting rods is in a deformable V shape; the deformation angle is 0-90 degrees, the plurality of columns of axial supporting rods 56 and a plurality of groups of circumferential supporting rods are mutually connected to form a deformable honeycomb space. Wherein, the cellular grid in which the outflow end is defined is larger. Further, the upper portion of the connection post 11 is provided with two rows of rectangular frames 57 for fixedly connecting the fan-shaped valve leaflets by sutures. In the plurality of grids of the stent 51, a coating membrane 58 is sewn between the first row of circumferential supporting rods 52 and the third row of circumferential supporting rods 54. In some cases, an outer coating membrane (not shown) is also sewn to the outside of the coating membrane between the first row of circumferential supporting rods 52 and the second row of circumferential supporting rods 53, as desired. The material of the coating membrane can be animal-derived tissues or medical polymer materials which would occur to a person skilled in the art.
