Embodiment 1

[0031] The invention is a left atrial appendage occluder with a variable waist design, which is a left atrial appendage occluder with a small incision through the chest. Such as figure 1 As shown, it consists of an upper steel sleeve 1, a lower steel sleeve 2, a blocking disc 3, a cone 4, a waist 5, a fixed disc 6 and an internal flow blocking film 7 (ie, a high temperature resistant polyester film). The main body is braided from Nitinol wire or cut from Nitinol tube. The sealing disc 3 is provided with an upper steel sleeve 1, and the fixed disc 6 is provided with a lower steel sleeve 2. The fixed disc 6 is connected with one end of the waist 5, and the other end of the waist 5 is connected with the conical body 4 that allows the waist 5 to be recessed. One end is connected, and the other end of the cone 4 is connected with the blocking disk 3 , and a flocculent skirt 8 is provided around the blocking disk 3 .

[0032] The diameter of the blocking disc 3 is greater than the...

Embodiment 2

[0045] In this embodiment, two layers of flow-blocking membranes 7 are sewn inside the left atrial appendage, each of the blocking disk 3 and the fixed disk 6 has a layer of flow-blocking membranes 7 , and no flow-blocking membranes 7 are sewn inside the cone body 4 and the waist 5 .

[0046] The waist 5 has a multi-disk structure, that is, on the basis of Example 1, 3 groups of discs are added to the columnar net, which further increases the range of variation in the height of the occluder. When the patient's left atrial appendage is shallow, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 The shape shown can complete effective occlusion; when the patient’s left atrial appendage is deep, the multi-disc surface of the waist 5 can be straightened, changing from a disc shape to a column shape, and the overall height of the occluder can be increased to adapt to the deeper left atrial appendage. structure to realize the adjustment of the height of the waist 5; if the height of the occluder still do...

Embodiment 3

[0049] In this embodiment, there are 6 layers of flow-blocking membranes 7 sewn inside the left atrial appendage, and 6 layers of flow-blocking membranes 7 are stitched together in the occlusion disk 3, the cone 4, the waist 5 and the fixed disk 6, wherein the occlusion disk 3 and the fixed The discs 6 are at least sewn with a flow blocking film 7 .

[0050] The material used in the present invention is polydioxanone, which is a degradable material, and four layers of degradable polylactic acid films are sewn inside the occluder. The waist 5 is designed to be arc-shaped. For some special left atrial appendages 9, sometimes the blocking disk 3 and the fixed disk 6 cannot be fixed on the same axis. Perfect release with fixed disc 6, as Figure 9 and 10 shown.

[0051] In the left atrial appendage occluder in this embodiment, after the occluder is completed, endothelial cells begin to cling to the surface of the occluder. As time goes on, the endothelialization is complete, an...

Abstract

The invention discloses a waist-bendable left atrial appendage occlusion apparatus, which comprises a fixing tray and an occlusion tray, wherein flow blocking films are arranged in both the fixing tray and the occlusion tray; an upper steel cover is arranged on the occlusion tray and a lower steel cover is arranged on the fixing tray; the occlusion apparatus is characterized in that the fixing tray is connected to one end of a waist part; the other end of the waist part is connected to one end of a conical body in which the waist part can sink; the other end of the conical body is connected to the occlusion tray; and flocculent skirt hems are arranged around the occlusion tray. The occlusion apparatus disclosed by the invention is simple in structure, convenient to use and low in operating difficulties; in addition, in accordance with the specific circumstances of a left atrial appendage and the left atrial appendage occlusion apparatus which is attached to the inner wall of the left atrial appendage, the occlusion apparatus can be effectively fixed, the occurrence of residual shunts can be effectively relieved and an additional perforating event of the left atrial appendage can be avoided, and the occlusion apparatus is simple to repeatedly recovery and release.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a left atrial appendage occluder with a variable waist design, which belongs to the technical field of heart surgery medical instruments. Background technique [0002] Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the loss of normal and regular contraction of the myocardium, replaced by rapid and uncoordinated weak peristalsis, resulting in the loss of normal effective contraction of the atrium. In the general population, the prevalence of atrial fibrillation is 1% to 2%, and it gradually increases with age, and it can reach 5% to 15% for people over 80 years old. It is conservatively estimated that there are currently about 8 million patients with atrial fibrillation in my country. 10 million. According to the 2014 National Economic and Social Development Statistical Bulletin of the National Bureau of Statistics, among the 1.367 billion people in China in 2014, 212 million people were aged 60 and above, accounting for 15.5% of the total populat...
