The invention relates to a catheter retractor, in particular to a bending balloon catheter retractor device and a pulling method thereof
The retractor is also referred to as a pull hook to pull the tissue, reveal a desired surgical range, facilitate exploration and operation, and can be divided into two types of hand-held pull hooks and automatic hooks. There are a variety of different shapes and sizes of specifications that can be selected depending on the needs of the procedure.
Conventional retractors require a larger operating space, which requires a larger surgical wound. Meanwhile, a traditional retractor is made of a plurality of metals, meanwhile, a sharp end is provided, secondary trauma of the patient is easily caused, and important organ tissues are damaged.
Current retractable tissue retractors are increasingly being widely used, which can pass through the working chamber of a retractable endoscope. Tissue retractors are used in endoscopic and open surgery, including scalable endoscopic, laparoscopic, and common surgical procedures. In order to accommodate specific requirements in surgical procedures, the length and diameter of such a tissue retractor can be constant or variable. A retractable endoscopic tissue retractor can be used to secure the organ tissue, thereby pulling and operating it in some manner.
The catheter retractor is used for tissue traction in surgery, which completes the pulling operation through natural lumen intervention or open surgical intervention. Procedures include, but are not limited to, various laparoscopic procedures, cardiovascular major surgery, brain surgery, digestive tract surgery, urinary disorder surgery, etc. including, but not limited to, gastrointestinal tract, esophagus, airway, urethra, vagina, bladder, and the like. Distraction objectives include, but are not limited to, protecting a particular tissue, removing a particular tissue to facilitate a surgical procedure.
The expansion deformation of the capsule enables the gap between the tissues to be a better practice of a metal puller, the volume is small, and the part of the human tissue needing to be isolated can be placed on the premise that the tissue of the human body is not excessively damaged. Meanwhile, the surface of the inflated balloon is smooth and soft, and damage to human tissues is not easily caused. For example, Chinese Patent 200580028684.5 provides a tissue removal/separation device. The device includes a balloon that can expand between a first tissue and a second tissue of the body. The balloon has an expanded shape that is selected to be capable of removing or separating the first tissue from the second tissue in a manner suitable to protect the first tissue from application therapy to the second tissue.
However, this invention is merely illustrative of the possibility of using balloon inflation to isolate human tissue, and an original inflation balloon is not suitable for expansion isolation in any human tissue. The use of such a balloon, even to some extent, poses a significant potential risk to the inflation of the human body. Moreover, the balloon can be tightly attached to the tissue of the human body at a certain pressure, although it is more difficult to isolate the different tissues while also tightly packing the limited space between the two, and the balloon also has the risk of bursting if the balloon is passed through the sharp surgical device and the burning surgical means. Therefore, compared with a mechanical retractor, the balloon expansion device can not effectively realize large-displacement distraction and does not occupy a surgical space, and can only play the role of isolating human tissue. In addition, it is also difficult to determine where the balloon is specifically located from the outside of the body, while generally such procedures are generally quite sophisticated. At the same time, the in-vivo effusion is also more difficult to exclude, resulting in a new increase risk.
Accordingly, there is a need for a surgical device that utilizes a balloon as a retractor that is more sophisticated and that is suitable for practical situations of human surgery to combine the advantages of both balloon inflation and mechanical retraction.
The invention aims to provide a bending balloon catheter distraction device for natural lumen intervention or open surgical intervention based on the problems, solves the problem that the current catheter retractor and the balloon isolation device are not high in precision and reliability and cannot adapt to human surgery, thereby realizing a simple and reliable catheter distraction.
In order to achieve the above object, the invention provides a bending balloon catheter distraction device, which comprises a catheter with a handle at one end, a positioner and a traction bag arranged outside the catheter, wherein one or more lumina are formed in the catheter, at least one hole is formed in the catheter portion, at least one lumen is used for fluid filling the traction bag through the hole, and when the pulling balloon is filled with fluid, one side is bent, and the handle can drive the catheter and the pulling balloon to rotate
Where the positioner may be a device that employs a developer, its position in the body may be viewed by X-ray. The positioner is one or more balloon balloons positioned at a fixed position of the catheter, and the balloon is filled with fluid and can clamp the lumen tube in the human body. The handle includes a portion that is held stationary, and a rotatable angle portion. The handle is provided with a mark indicating the angle, and when the handle is rotated, the relative azimuth angle of the pulling balloon is marked. The catheter is made of a material which is not easy to self-twist; and when the catheter is left on the outer part of the human body cavity to rotate, the pulling balloon is rotated by a certain proportion at the same time. A length of scale on the catheter is used to mark the depth of insertion of the catheter. One or more of the lumina are used to inflate the balloon. At least one of the lumina is used for drainage of the effusion. A lumen of the drainage effusion is located at the upper end of the pulling balloon at an open position on the catheter; if the balloon is provided with a balloon, the upper end of the balloon is located at the upper end of the balloon. At least one of the lumina is used for spraying the developer; the hole of the developer is located at the upper end of the pulling balloon; if the balloon is provided with a balloon, between the pulling balloon and the upper end of the pulling balloon. At least one of the lumina is used for absorbing negative pressure, the open position of the lumen is located between the two ends of the balloon, and the holes used for absorbing the negative pressure can be provided with one or more. The pulling balloon can be made of a raw material mixed with a developer and has the function of fully developing under the X-ray. The pulling balloon is used for pulling the esophagus, the pulling balloon is located between the second stenosis and the third stenosis of the esophagus, and the diameter of the balloon after filling the fluid is larger than the diameter of the esophagus at the stenosis
Another object of the present invention is to provide a curved balloon catheter retractor for use with the esophagus of a cardiac ablation procedure for the purposes of this invention, the present invention provides a curved balloon catheter retractor comprising a handle, a multi-lumen catheter, two balloon balloons, and a pull balloon; The three lumina in the multi-lumen catheter are respectively provided with holes at the positions where the three balloons are located and are used for respectively filling the three balloons with fluid; the two balloon balloons are located at the two ends of the pulling balloon and are respectively clamped with the esophagus for fixation; when the pulling balloon is filled with fluid, the esophagus is bent to drive the esophagus to bend, so that the esophagus is pulled away from the original position.
The positions of the four lumina are respectively a large lumen in the middle and a plurality of small lumina around the lumen; each small lumen is provided with a hole at the position where each capsule is located and is used for respectively inflating the capsule; and the middle of the lumen is provided with a hole at the upper end of the upper end of the balloon for drainage of saliva. The other lumen is communicated with the opening between the balloon bag and the pulling balloon, and is used for pumping gas to the esophagus pulling part. Still another lumen may be used to spray a developer to the inner wall of the esophagus for displaying esophageal bending conditions.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a safe and effective method of retracting a balloon catheter. In order to achieve the aim of the invention, the invention provides a method for pulling a curved balloon catheter, which is characterized by comprising the following steps: inserting an uninflated fluid bending balloon catheter into a human body lumen needing to be pulled; monitoring whether the balloon balloon reaches a predetermined position; filling the balloon into the fluid to enable the balloon catheter to be clamped in the human body lumen; and filling the pulling balloon with fluid so that the balloon catheter is bent to achieve the purpose of bending and pulling the human body lumen

When the position of the pulling balloon needs to be moved in the using process, the catheter and the capsule are driven to rotate through the rotating handle, so that the esophagus is driven to rotate, so that the tissue or the position needing to be avoided in the surgery is avoided all the time. When the balloon is used for esophageal pulling, the balloon is located between the second stenosis and the third stenosis of the esophagus, and the diameter of the balloon inflated with the fluid is greater than the diameter of the esophagus at the stenosis. When in use, the balloon bag is filled with the fluid, the lumen of the negative pressure is used for pumping gas, and finally the pulling balloon is expanded, so that the purpose of bending the esophagus is achieved.

In other embodiments, the lumen 54 is used to suction a negative pressure, the open position of which is located in the middle of the two balloon 3, and the holes used to suction the negative pressure may have one or more. In particular, the balloon 3 is inflated first, then air is drawn through the lumen 54 with negative pressure, and finally the pulling balloon 4 is distracted, so that the purpose of bending the esophagus is achieved.
The catheter is made of a material which is not easy to twist; when the catheter is left outside the human body cavity, a certain proportion of angle is rotated at the same time. At the same time, there is a length of scale on the catheter to mark the depth of catheter insertion.
The invention also provides a pulling method, which can be inserted into a single-lumen/multi-lumen catheter pipeline in an animal body and can be expanded into an arc-shaped pulling balloon after being injected into the fluid, the pulling balloon is linked to the outside of the catheter, and the catheter can be offset towards the protruding direction of the pulling balloon and can be combined with an operating handle and other related accessories. Tissue traction for use in surgery is accomplished by either natural lumen intervention or open surgical intervention. Procedures include, but are not limited to, various laparoscopic procedures, cardiovascular major surgery, brain surgery, digestive tract surgery, urinary disease surgery, and the like. The retractor tissue includes, but is not limited to, the gastrointestinal tract, the esophagus, the airway, the urethra, the vagina, the bladder, and the like. Distraction objectives include, but are not limited to, protecting a particular tissue, removing a particular tissue to facilitate a surgical procedure.
The curved balloon catheter of the retractor is regulated by a handle to be inserted into the body through a human body natural cavity or a surgical mode. The position and angle of rotation of the catheter can be adjusted with the handle with the aid of an image device to lock the position and angle with the handle. Inflation of the balloon may be accomplished by an insufflation port of the handle attachment or any other insufflation pathway. After the balloon is inflated, the balloon is inflated and exhibits a curved shape, at least one section of the catheter pipeline has at least one section of bending, and the bending part of the final balloon catheter can complete the pulling or shifting effect of the tissue.
The effect of the catheter retractor is described in terms of atrial fibrillation ablation complications. Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia, while atrial fibrillation radiofrequency (RF) ablation therapy has been gradually recognized in recent years as a better solution than drug therapy and conventional surgical procedures. The occurrence of atrial esophageal fistula complications arises from the spatial relationship between the left atrium and the esophagus. Since the esophagus is at the posterior mediastinum, the posterior wall of the left atrium is separated from the posterior wall of the left atrium by only the pericardial oblique sinus, while the posterior wall of the left atrium and the anterior wall of the esophagus are both thin, and high temperature and high energy in the ablation procedure is likely to cause excessive damage to the esophagus. Atrial esophageal fistula complications have extremely high mortality, in order for the surgical safety to be drawn away from the heart,
When in use, the catheter 5 is inserted into the esophagus from the nasal cavity, when the distal balloon 3 enters between the second stenosis and the third stenosis of the esophagus, the distal balloon 3 is opened, and the balloon 3 continues to be pushed to the third stenosis; the upper end of the balloon 3 is opened, and the balloon 3 is clamped under the second stenosis; and then the middle pulling balloon 4 is opened to bend, and the esophagus is driven to bend. During use, the catheter 5 and balloon 3, 4 are driven to rotate by rotating the handle 2 so that the esophagus changes in the direction of deflection in the body, thereby always avoiding ablation points of the ablation of the heart. After the balloon 3 is opened, the esophagus is pumped by using the opening, and after a certain negative pressure range is reached, the pulling balloon 4 is distracted, so that the purpose of bending the esophagus is achieved. The aperture can also be used to spray a developer such that the esophageal curved portion can be developed under X-rays.
In particular, when used for esophagus pulling, the catheter is inserted into the esophagus through the nasal cavity or the oral cavity, after the catheter reaches the position, the relative position of the bending direction and the heart is determined through marking on the catheter and the handle, then the pulling balloon is inflated and distracted, and the esophagus is pulled by using the pulling balloon; and when the positioning of the pulling balloon needs to be rotated and adjusted in the horizontal section (cardiac ablation is needed to replace the ablation point)) By rotating the whole catheter through the knob device on the handle, the pulling balloon is driven to rotate, so that the esophagus is pulled away from the new ablation point in the new direction. The pulling balloon is positioned between the second stenosis and the third stenosis of the esophagus when the esophagus is pulled, the diameter of the balloon is larger than the diameter of the esophagus of the stenosis, the length of the pulling balloon is 10-15 cm, the working air pressure is 2-8 atm, and the pulling distance is 2-4 cm.
Those skilled in the art will also appreciate that other variations can be made within the spirit and scope of the present invention, and that various modifications that are derived in accordance with the spirit of the invention should still be within the scope of the invention.
