Implantable device for anti-gastroesophageal reflux

Abstract

The invention relates to an anti-gastroesophageal reflux implantation device, which includes a magnetic chain and an auxiliary wire. The magnetic chain includes a plurality of magnetic devices, a plurality of connecting units, and a locking device. The magnetic device includes one or more ring-shaped The magnet and the shell, the inner circumferential surface of the shell is a concave arc surface; the adjacent magnetic devices are movably connected by a connecting unit, the connecting unit includes a connecting piece and a limiting piece arranged at its end, and the locking device includes Locking device I and locking device II, the magnetic chain also has a starting magnetic device and an end magnetic device, and the locking device I and the locking device II are respectively arranged on the shells of the starting magnetic device and the end magnetic device, When the locking device I and the locking device II are combined, the magnetic chain forms a closed circular magnetic chain ring. The design of the present invention is reasonable, and the shape formed by the series connection of magnetic chains is closer to a circle, so that the implanted device fits the outer wall of the esophagus more closely after being implanted on the outside of the lower esophageal sphincter, and fully exerts the role of the device in enhancing LES.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical implant device, more specifically, to an implant device for resisting gastroesophageal reflux. The implant device of the present invention surrounds the patient's lower esophageal sphincter outside the lower esophageal sphincter through laparoscopic surgery, so as to enhance the closing ability of the lower esophageal sphincter and play a role in resisting the reflux of gastric contents. Background technique [0002] Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) refers to the reflux of excessive contents of the stomach and duodenum into the esophagus, causing symptoms such as heartburn, and can lead to esophagitis and tissue damage outside the esophagus such as the pharynx, larynx, and airway. Gastroesophageal reflux disease is very common in western countries. About 7% to 15% of the population has gastroesophageal reflux symptoms. The incidence increases with age. The peak age of onset is 40 to 60 years old. For patients w...

Problems solved by technology

But its disadvantages are as follows: firstly, the formed ring is not round enough to fit well with the outside of the lower esophageal sphincter. When the patient swallows food, the esophageal expansion will rub against the instrument, causing discomfort to the patient, and even worse, causing the patient’s esophageal Symptoms such as inflammation on the outer side of the lower sphincter; secondly, it is inconvenient to connect the two ends of the head and tail, which is not conducive to the doctor's operation and increases the operation time; thirdly, after the magnetic bead chain is implanted in the body for a period of time, the magnetic beads and the gap between the adjacent magnetic beads The gap will be wrapped and buried by human tissue, once the patient is found to be unwell, it will be difficult to remove
