本发明涉及医疗器械领域,具体涉及一种球囊导管。The invention relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to a balloon catheter.
背景技术Background technique
治疗脑血管疾病的神经介入技术已经在临床中进行了广泛的应用。近年来,随着影像学设备的进步、治疗理念的创新性发展,各类新型介入器械为神经介入医生提供了更多可选的治疗手段,使医生可以处理越来越多的复杂的病变。Neurointerventional technology for the treatment of cerebrovascular diseases has been widely used in clinical practice. In recent years, with the advancement of imaging equipment and innovative development of treatment concepts, various new interventional devices have provided neurointerventional doctors with more optional treatment methods, allowing doctors to treat more and more complex lesions.
近年来,机械取栓成为治疗缺血性脑卒中的重要手段,其原理是通过抽吸导管或取栓支架等治疗性器械完成对血栓的抽吸或抓取,从而完成对血管中的堵塞血栓的清除,达到血管再通的治疗目的。球囊导引导管作为一种新型的通路器械,可以辅助取栓器械更好地完成血栓的清除,降低血栓被血液冲至血管更远端的风险。球囊导引导管经由血管鞘入路,辅助取栓器械到达病变血管近端后,通过在导管近端球囊腔道内注入液体,将导管远端的球囊膨开,使其紧贴血管壁,形成对该处血管的短暂封堵,防止血液对血栓形成冲击,降低血栓向更远处逃逸的风险。相比用于扩张狭窄的球囊扩张导管所用的非顺应性球囊,球囊导引导管所用的球囊为顺应性球囊或半顺应球囊。In recent years, mechanical thrombectomy has become an important method for the treatment of ischemic stroke. Its principle is to complete the suction or capture of thrombus through therapeutic devices such as suction catheters or thrombectomy stents, thereby completing the removal of clogged thrombi in blood vessels. removal to achieve the therapeutic purpose of vascular recanalization. As a new type of access device, the balloon guiding catheter can assist the thrombectomy device to better remove thrombus and reduce the risk of thrombus being flushed by blood to the more distal part of the blood vessel. The balloon guiding catheter is passed through the vascular sheath. After the auxiliary thrombectomy instrument reaches the proximal end of the diseased blood vessel, liquid is injected into the balloon lumen at the proximal end of the catheter to expand the balloon at the distal end of the catheter to make it close to the blood vessel wall. , forming a temporary blockage of the blood vessel, preventing the blood from impacting the thrombus, and reducing the risk of the thrombus escaping farther away. Compared to the non-compliant balloons used in balloon dilatation catheters used to dilate stenoses, the balloons used in balloon guide catheters are compliant or semi-compliant balloons.
相比扩张狭窄的球囊扩张导管不需要内通器械,球囊导引导管同时有到位和通过器械的需求,因此需要较小的外径和较大的内径,然而在现有技术中,顺应性或半顺应性球囊常用材质为硅胶、乳胶等,上述材质与常用的医用材料相容性差,球囊只能采用胶水粘接的方式与内管和外管固定,胶水的使用造成球囊处的外径偏大,外径偏大会造成球囊导管到位能力差。此外,导管粘接处的软硬过渡不顺滑,也会影响球囊导引导管的到位性,较差的软硬过渡使得球囊导引导管在通过迂曲的血管时,存在更大的损伤血管内壁的风险,造成患者的不适感。Compared with the balloon dilation catheter that dilates stenosis, it does not require internal communication instruments. The balloon guidance catheter has the need to be in place and pass the instrument at the same time, so it requires a smaller outer diameter and a larger inner diameter. However, in the existing technology, compliance Commonly used materials for flexible or semi-compliant balloons are silicone, latex, etc. The above materials have poor compatibility with commonly used medical materials. The balloon can only be fixed to the inner and outer tubes by glue bonding. The use of glue causes the balloon to If the outer diameter is too large, the outer diameter will cause poor ability of the balloon catheter to be in place. In addition, the soft-hard transition at the catheter bonding point is not smooth, which will also affect the positioning of the balloon guiding catheter. Poor soft-hard transition will cause greater damage to the balloon guiding catheter when passing through tortuous blood vessels. Risk to the inner wall of blood vessels, causing discomfort to the patient.
聚氨酯是一种具有优异的高弹性及弹性变形率的一类材料,其广泛应用于生物医用领域,具有良好的生物相容性的优势。聚氨酯相比于硅胶材料具有良好的材料相容性,其可通过热熔与常用医用材料如PE、Pebax、Nylon等进行粘接。此外,聚氨酯还是亲水涂层的良好基底,可对导管及球囊处进行涂层。但是,在具有相同耐压强度及弹性变形能力的情况下,聚氨酯材料相比于硅胶材料硬度更高。因此,聚氨酯没有广泛作为球囊材料进行使用。Polyurethane is a type of material with excellent high elasticity and elastic deformation rate. It is widely used in the biomedical field and has the advantage of good biocompatibility. Compared with silicone materials, polyurethane has good material compatibility, and it can be bonded to common medical materials such as PE, Pebax, Nylon, etc. through hot melt. In addition, polyurethane is a good base for hydrophilic coatings on catheters and balloons. However, with the same compressive strength and elastic deformation ability, polyurethane materials are harder than silicone materials. Therefore, polyurethane is not widely used as a balloon material.

【实施例一】[Example 1]
请参考图1,本申请实施例一提供一种球囊导管,其包括:导管主体1、球囊2,球囊2套设并连接于导管主体1,球囊2的材料包括通式a所表示的高分子:Please refer to Figure 1. Embodiment 1 of the present application provides a balloon catheter, which includes: a catheter body 1 and a balloon 2. The balloon 2 is sleeved and connected to the catheter body 1. The material of the balloon 2 includes the general formula a Represented polymer:
其中,R1和R2相互独立选自芳基或带芳基的链段,R3为碳原子数大于等于4的烷基。Among them, R1 and R2 are independently selected from an aryl group or a chain segment with an aryl group, and R3 is an alkyl group with 4 or more carbon atoms.
通式a所表示的高分子具有高弹性、高强度、高韧性,并能与常用的医用高分子材料通过热熔焊接工艺粘接,热熔焊接工艺包括热缩工艺、激光焊接工艺、热焊接工艺等。采用通式a所表示的高分子制备的球囊2具有较好的顺应性、较高的断裂延伸率、良好的弹性变形率及弹性回复性能且弹性好、爆破压高,能满足球囊导管封堵血管、输送到位的需求,膨胀后更容易贴合血管,封堵效果好。此外,由于通式a所表示的高分子能与常用的医用高分子通过热熔工艺焊接,避免了在球囊2与导管主体1的连接处使用胶水,使球囊导管在球囊2与导管主体1的连接处的整体外径较小,在保证球囊导管的内径足够大的同时,实现较小的外径,同时满足了球囊导管的到位需求和内通器械的需求,且通过热熔粘接的球囊2与导管主体1之间的连接强度高,在充盈过程或者输送过程中不容易脱落,热熔焊接工艺还使得球囊2与导管主体1的连接处软硬过渡顺滑,提高导管的到位能力,在通过迂曲血管时,不容易损伤血管。同时,由于通式a所表示的高分子是亲水涂层的优良基底,容易对其表面进行涂层,且涂覆的亲水涂层牢固度高,不易脱落,在球囊2表面进行亲水涂层可以进一步提高球囊导引导管的到位性能、减小在封堵血管时对血管的损伤。The polymer represented by general formula a has high elasticity, high strength, and high toughness, and can be bonded to commonly used medical polymer materials through hot melt welding processes. Hot melt welding processes include heat shrinkage, laser welding, and thermal welding. Craftsmanship etc. The balloon 2 prepared by using the polymer represented by the general formula a has good compliance, high elongation at break, good elastic deformation rate and elastic recovery performance, good elasticity and high burst pressure, and can meet the needs of balloon catheters. For the needs of blocking blood vessels and delivering them in place, it is easier to fit the blood vessels after expansion, and the blocking effect is good. In addition, since the polymer represented by the general formula a can be welded with commonly used medical polymers through a hot melt process, the use of glue at the connection between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1 is avoided, allowing the balloon catheter to be connected between the balloon 2 and the catheter The overall outer diameter of the connection of the main body 1 is small, which ensures that the inner diameter of the balloon catheter is large enough while achieving a smaller outer diameter, while meeting the needs of the balloon catheter in place and the internal communication device, and through the heat The connection between the melt-bonded balloon 2 and the catheter body 1 has high strength and is not easy to fall off during the filling or transportation process. The hot-melt welding process also makes the soft-hard transition between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1 smooth. , improve the ability of the catheter to be in place, and will not easily damage the blood vessels when passing through tortuous blood vessels. At the same time, since the polymer represented by the general formula a is an excellent base for the hydrophilic coating, it is easy to coat its surface, and the coated hydrophilic coating has high firmness and is not easy to fall off. The water coating can further improve the placement performance of the balloon guidance catheter and reduce damage to blood vessels when blocking blood vessels.
需要说明的是,“芳基”应被理解为指具有至少一个芳环的基团。例如为苯基、萘基、荧蒽基、芴基、苯并芴基、蒽基、萘满基、茚满基、吡咯基、咪唑基、吡唑基、吡啶基、吡嗪基、嘧啶基、哒嗪基、异吲哚基、吲哚基、吲唑基、嘌呤基等。所述芳环可以为未取代、单取代或多取代。通式a所表示的高分子中的R1和/或R2限定为芳基或带芳基的链段,可以提高球囊材料的粘接性能,且材料不容易老化。因此相比常见的球囊材料所制备的球囊2,如硅胶,球囊2与导管主体1的连接处不需要使用胶水,连接处的外径较小,且球囊2与导管主体1之间的连接强度高,在充盈过程或者输送过程中不容易脱落。优选的,R1与R2相互独立选自单苯芳环、邻苯芳环、萘、芴。优选的,R1与R2的结构相同。当然,在一些实施例中,R1与R2的结构也可以不同。It should be noted that "aryl" should be understood to mean a group having at least one aromatic ring. For example, phenyl, naphthyl, fluoranthyl, fluorenyl, benzofluorenyl, anthracenyl, tetralinyl, indanyl, pyrrolyl, imidazolyl, pyrazolyl, pyridyl, pyrazinyl, pyrimidinyl , pyridazinyl, isoindolyl, indolyl, indazolyl, purinyl, etc. The aromatic ring may be unsubstituted, monosubstituted or polysubstituted. R1 and/or R2 in the polymer represented by the general formula a is limited to an aryl group or a segment with an aryl group, which can improve the bonding performance of the balloon material and make the material less likely to age. Therefore, compared with the balloon 2 made of common balloon materials, such as silicone, the connection between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1 does not require the use of glue, the outer diameter of the connection is smaller, and the connection between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1 The connection strength between them is high and it is not easy to fall off during the filling process or transportation process. Preferably, R1 and R2 are independently selected from monobenzene aromatic ring, o-phenyl aromatic ring, naphthalene, and fluorene. Preferably, R1 and R2 have the same structure. Of course, in some embodiments, the structures of R1 and R2 may also be different.
需要进一步说明的是,虽然通式a表示为二嵌段共聚物的形式,但是如此表示仅仅是为了描述方便,通式a所表示的高分子可以是两段式的二嵌段共聚物,即一种单体形成一个长链段连接另一种单体形成的另一个长链段,也可以是不同单体混合排布的形式的共聚物,例如通式a中左边的链段称为硬段,通式a中右边的链段称为软段,硬段和软段依次混合交替排布,每个硬段和/或每个软段的聚合度不限。It should be further explained that although the general formula a is expressed in the form of a diblock copolymer, this expression is only for the convenience of description. The polymer represented by the general formula a can be a two-stage diblock copolymer, that is One monomer forms a long chain segment connected to another long chain segment formed by another monomer. It can also be a copolymer in the form of a mixed arrangement of different monomers. For example, the chain segment on the left side of the general formula a is called a hard chain segment. Segment, the chain segment on the right side of the general formula a is called a soft segment, and the hard segments and soft segments are mixed and arranged alternately in sequence. The degree of polymerization of each hard segment and/or each soft segment is not limited.
通式a所表示的高分子中的R3限定为碳原子数大于等于4的烷基,可以保证材料具有良好的弹性,且断裂延伸率高,因此采用通式a所表示的高分子制备的球囊2顺应好、具有良好的弹性变形率,膨胀后更容易贴合血管,封堵效果好,且具有良好弹性回复性能,球囊2可以经多次充盈膨胀和回抽收缩,而不影响球囊2的外观和性能。R3 in the polymer represented by the general formula a is limited to an alkyl group with a carbon number of 4 or more, which can ensure that the material has good elasticity and high elongation at break. Therefore, it is prepared by using the polymer represented by the general formula a. The balloon 2 is well compliant and has a good elastic deformation rate. After expansion, it is easier to fit the blood vessel, has a good blocking effect, and has good elastic recovery performance. The balloon 2 can be filled and expanded and withdrawn and contracted for many times without affecting the Balloon 2 appearance and performance.
另外,R1和/或R2限定为芳基或带芳基的链段,以及R3限定为碳原子数大于等于4的烷基,使得所用材料可以通过调控n、m、x、y的数值选择合适的硬度。球囊2的硬度对其性能具有较大的影响,硬度过小,球囊2可能无法较好充盈,充盈过程中会有几率发生偏心现象,若在手术过程中,球囊2发生偏心现象,会造成对血管一侧产生的压力过大,可能会对血管造成损伤,且无法很好地封堵血管;硬度过大,球囊2在充盈过程中也有可能发生偏心或者充盈不充分的现象,且在充盈后回抽过程中可能产生无法复原的情况,即回抽充盈液后,球囊2无法紧贴导管主体1,若在手术过程中,球囊2无法回抽复原,不方便球囊封堵位置的调整,封堵完成后也会影响球囊导管的回撤。因此,通式a所表示的高分子优选硬度为40A~60A。In addition, R1 and/or R2 are limited to an aryl group or a segment with an aryl group, and R3 is limited to an alkyl group with a carbon number of 4 or more, so that the materials used can be adjusted by adjusting n, m, x, y Use the numerical value to select the appropriate hardness. The hardness of the balloon 2 has a great impact on its performance. If the hardness is too small, the balloon 2 may not be properly filled, and there may be a chance of eccentricity during the filling process. If the balloon 2 is eccentric during the operation, It will cause excessive pressure on one side of the blood vessel, which may cause damage to the blood vessel, and the blood vessel cannot be blocked well; if the hardness is too large, the balloon 2 may also be eccentric or insufficiently filled during the filling process. And during the withdrawal process after filling, an irreversible situation may occur, that is, after the filling fluid is withdrawn, the balloon 2 cannot be close to the catheter body 1. If during the operation, the balloon 2 cannot be withdrawn and restored, it will be inconvenient for the balloon. Adjustment of the blocking position will also affect the withdrawal of the balloon catheter after the blocking is completed. Therefore, the polymer represented by the general formula a preferably has a hardness of 40A to 60A.
优选的,通式a所表示的高分子中的m的范围为4-28,例如5、8、10、15、20、25、28。m的值越大,则材料刚度越低,弹性越好,m过大会造成材料过于柔软而使用该材料制备的球囊2在充盈过程中容易偏心,造成球囊2封堵血管时的稳定性差,m过小会造成材料弹性不足,充盈后球囊2的永久变形率较大,影响球囊2的回抽性能,球囊2充盈回抽后无法恢复原始状态,影响球囊2的再次充盈,球囊导管无法反复调整封堵位置。Preferably, the range of m in the polymer represented by general formula a is 4-28, such as 5, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 28. The larger the value of m, the lower the material stiffness and the better the elasticity. If m is too large, the material will be too soft and the balloon 2 prepared using this material will be easily eccentric during the filling process, resulting in poor stability of the balloon 2 when blocking blood vessels. , if m is too small, the elasticity of the material will be insufficient, and the permanent deformation rate of the balloon 2 after filling will be large, which will affect the retraction performance of the balloon 2. The balloon 2 will not be able to return to its original state after being filled and retracted, affecting the refilling of the balloon 2. , the balloon catheter cannot repeatedly adjust the blocking position.
优选的,通式a所表示的高分子中的n的范围为2-6,例如2、3、4、5、6。n的值越大,则柔性链段更柔软,其弹性越好,n过大会造成材料的材料过于柔软而造成球囊2偏心且材料抗热老化性能和抗氧老化性能降低,n过小会造成材料硬度变大,充盈后球囊2的永久变形率较大,影响球囊2的回抽性能。Preferably, n in the polymer represented by general formula a ranges from 2 to 6, such as 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The larger the value of n, the softer the flexible segment and the better its elasticity. If n is too large, the material will be too soft, causing the balloon 2 to be eccentric and the material's thermal aging resistance and oxidative aging resistance will be reduced. If n is too small, the material will be too soft. As a result, the hardness of the material becomes larger, and the permanent deformation rate of the balloon 2 after inflation is larger, which affects the withdrawal performance of the balloon 2 .
优选的,通式a所表示的高分子中的x的范围为100-190,例如100、120、150、160、180、190。x的值越大,则材料中硬段含量增大,材料的硬度更高,x过大会造成材料弹性形变能力变差,充盈时所需的压力更大,不利于球囊2的弹性形变,过小会造成硬度太低,造成球囊2偏心等问题。Preferably, the range of x in the polymer represented by general formula a is 100-190, such as 100, 120, 150, 160, 180, 190. The larger the value of If it is too small, the hardness will be too low, causing problems such as eccentricity of the balloon 2.
优选的,通式a所表示的高分子中的y的范围为150-285,例如150、160、175、190、200、220、250、270、285。y的值越大,则材料中软段含量增大,材料更柔软,y过大会造成材料过于柔软,y过小会造成硬度过高。Preferably, the range of y in the polymer represented by general formula a is 150-285, such as 150, 160, 175, 190, 200, 220, 250, 270, 285. The larger the value of y, the soft segment content in the material increases and the material becomes softer. If y is too large, the material will be too soft, and if y is too small, the hardness will be too high.
优选的,通式a所表示的高分子中的x:y的范围为1:3~2:1,例,1:3、1:2、1:1、2:1,x:y的值代表着高分子中硬段的数量与软段的数量之比,因此,x:y过大会造成材料过硬,x:y过小会造成材料过软。Preferably, the range of x:y in the polymer represented by the general formula a is 1:3 to 2:1, for example, 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, 2:1, the value of x:y It represents the ratio of the number of hard segments to the number of soft segments in the polymer. Therefore, if x:y is too large, the material will be too hard, and if x:y is too small, the material will be too soft.

The compliant material can adhere closely to the inner wall of the blood vessel during expansion, and can automatically adjust the balloon according to the shape of the blood vessel during the expansion process 2 In order to seal blood vessels better, the balloon 2 needs to have a better elongation. Therefore, in the present invention, the polymer represented by the general formula a preferably has an elongation at break of greater than 800%, that is, the balloon 2 needs to have a better elongation. The bladder material has an elongation at break greater than 800%. If the elongation at break of the balloon material is too small, the balloon 2 may break during the expansion process, thereby damaging the blood vessel.
优选的,球囊2的厚度为0.002inch~0.004inch。球囊2的厚度影响了球囊2的强度和扩张性能,如果球囊2的厚度过大,一方面球囊导管通过迂曲血管的性能差,到位能力差且容易刺激血管,另一方面过厚的球囊2可能导致球囊2的膨胀性能不佳,充盈时膨胀较为困难;如果球囊2的厚度过小,球囊2在充盈时容易发生偏心的现象,且充盈体积较大时容易破裂。Preferably, the thickness of the balloon 2 is 0.002inch to 0.004inch. The thickness of the balloon 2 affects the strength and expansion performance of the balloon 2. If the thickness of the balloon 2 is too large, on the one hand, the performance of the balloon catheter through tortuous blood vessels will be poor, its ability to be in place will be poor, and it is easy to irritate blood vessels. On the other hand, it will be too thick. The balloon 2 may have poor inflation performance, making it difficult to inflate during inflation; if the thickness of the balloon 2 is too small, the balloon 2 may be prone to eccentricity during inflation, and may easily rupture when the inflation volume is large. .
优选的,通式a所表示的高分子的重均分子量为150000~200000DA,例如160000DA、170000DA、180000DA、190000DA,若球囊2所用的高分子分子量过大,高分子的加工性能不佳,加工时流动性差,不容易与其他材料形成共混物,影响球囊2与导管主体1之间的粘接性能;若球囊2所用的高分子分子量过小,其材料的机械性能差,球囊2强度低,球囊2在工艺制备或者使用过程中容易破裂。Preferably, the weight average molecular weight of the polymer represented by the general formula a is 150000 to 200000DA, such as 160000DA, 170000DA, 180000DA, 190000DA. If the molecular weight of the polymer used in the balloon 2 is too large, the processing performance of the polymer will be poor and the processing When the fluidity is poor, it is not easy to form a blend with other materials, which affects the bonding performance between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1; if the molecular weight of the polymer used in the balloon 2 is too small, the mechanical properties of the material will be poor, and the balloon will 2. The strength is low, and the balloon 2 is easily ruptured during process preparation or use.

A lumen is formed between the outer tube 11 and the inner tube 12, and the lumen is used to inflate the balloon 2 by filling it with liquid. The way the balloon 2 is connected between the outer tube 11 and the inner tube 12 effectively reduces the impact of the balloon 2 on the overall outer diameter of the catheter, and the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1 are connected using a hot melt welding process. The connection position between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1 avoids the use of glue, further preventing the balloon 2 from having an excessive impact on the overall outer diameter of the balloon catheter.

The conduit can be transported smoothly and will not be broken or discounted during use. The single-layer outer tube 11 ensures that the outer diameter of the conduit will not exceed Large, it also ensures that the filling cavity of the balloon catheter is large enough. In other embodiments, the inner tube of the balloon catheter may have a double-layer structure or a four-layer structure, and/or the outer tube 11 of the balloon catheter may have a double-layer structure or a three-layer structure. 11 Reinforcement layers may also be included.
请进一步参考图1,内管12和/或外管11在与所述球囊2连接的位置对应的材料优选为线性低密度聚乙烯。线性低密度聚乙烯具有高的抗张强度、抗撕裂强度,因此,采用线性低密度聚乙烯与通式a所表示的高分子连接,可以增强导管主体1与球囊2之间的连接强度,连接处不容易断裂,过渡顺滑。Please further refer to FIG. 1 , the material corresponding to the position where the inner tube 12 and/or the outer tube 11 are connected to the balloon 2 is preferably linear low density polyethylene.

Therefore, the connection strength between the catheter body 1 and the balloon 2 can be enhanced by using linear low-density polyethylene to connect with the polymer represented by the general formula a. , the connection is not easy to break and the transition is smooth.
更优的,所述线性低密度聚乙烯经马来酸酐接枝,马来酸酐接枝线性低密度聚乙烯可以进一步提高线性低密度聚乙烯与其他高分子之间的粘接性能,从而提高球囊2与导管主体1的连接强度。例如马来酸酐接枝线性低密度聚乙烯与通式a所表示的高分子材料之间的粘接强度比非马来酸酐接枝的线性低密度聚乙烯与通式a所表示的高分子材料之间的粘接强度更高,使得球囊2与导管主体1的断裂强度更高。More preferably, the linear low-density polyethylene is grafted with maleic anhydride, and the maleic anhydride-grafted linear low-density polyethylene can further improve the bonding performance between the linear low-density polyethylene and other polymers, thereby improving the performance of the ball. The strength of the connection between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1.

【实施例四】[Example 4]
请参考图4,本实施例四提供不同材料的拉伸回弹测试的数据,拉伸回弹测试方法为:使用夹具夹持材料的两边并施加拉力,将材料拉伸至100%,随后拉伸至364%,最后拉伸至455%后测试永久变形率。三种材料分别为符合通式a的材料-1、普通TPU-1、硅胶-1。实验结果表明:符合通式a的材料-1具有良好高弹性形变及弹性回复能力,其拉伸后的弹性变形率及永久变形率与硅胶相当,优于普通TPU-1。其中,虽然材料-1的永久变形率略高于硅胶-1,说明使用该材料制备的球囊2的弹性回复能力会略差于使用硅胶-1制备的球囊2,但是82%的永久变形率也能满足球囊导引导管的回抽性能的需求;且由于材料-1可以与其他医用高分子通过热熔焊接工艺粘接,而硅胶材料因其粘接性能差,无法通过通过热熔焊接工艺与其他医用高分子粘接,因此相比于硅胶材料制备的球囊2,采用材料-1制备的球囊2可以避免球囊2与导管主体1连接位置使用胶水,减小了球囊导管的整体外径,且过渡位置外径变化以及力学性能变化平滑,避免了外径变化带来的对血管造成损伤的风险,以及力学性能变化带来的导管弯折或到位困难的风险。Please refer to Figure 4. This Example 4 provides data on the tensile rebound test of different materials. The tensile rebound test method is: use a clamp to clamp both sides of the material and apply tensile force, stretch the material to 100%, and then pull Stretch to 364%, and finally stretch to 455% to test the permanent deformation rate. The three materials are material-1 that conforms to the general formula a, ordinary TPU-1, and silica gel-1. The experimental results show that the material-1 that conforms to the general formula a has good high elastic deformation and elastic recovery capabilities. Its elastic deformation rate and permanent deformation rate after stretching are equivalent to that of silicone and better than ordinary TPU-1. Among them, although the permanent deformation rate of material-1 is slightly higher than that of silica gel-1, indicating that the elastic recovery ability of balloon 2 prepared using this material will be slightly worse than that of balloon 2 prepared using silica gel-1, the permanent deformation of 82% The rate can also meet the demand for retraction performance of the balloon guidance catheter; and because Material-1 can be bonded with other medical polymers through hot melt welding process, silicone material cannot be bonded through hot melt due to its poor bonding performance. The welding process is bonded with other medical polymers. Therefore, compared with the balloon 2 made of silicone material, the balloon 2 made of material-1 can avoid the use of glue at the connection position between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1, reducing the size of the balloon. The overall outer diameter of the catheter, and the change in outer diameter at the transition position and the change in mechanical properties are smooth, avoiding the risk of damage to blood vessels caused by changes in outer diameter, and the risk of bending or difficulty in placing the catheter due to changes in mechanical properties.
【实施例五】[Example 5]
请参考图5,本实施五提供不同材料的断裂延伸率和200%拉伸变形率下压力值的测试数据。其中,断裂延伸率的测试方法为:使用夹具夹持材料的两边并施加拉力,将材料拉伸直至断裂,记录材料断裂时的延伸率;200%拉伸变形率下压力值的测试方法为:使用夹具夹持材料的两边并施加拉力,将材料拉伸到200%的变形率,记录此时的压力值。测试材料分别为:符合通式a的材料-2、材料-3,硅胶-2、硅胶-3,普通TPU-2、普通TPU-3、普通TPU-4、普通TPU-5、普通TPU-6、普通TPU-7。Please refer to Figure 5. This Implementation 5 provides test data of the elongation at break and the pressure value at 200% tensile deformation rate of different materials. Among them, the test method for elongation at break is: use a clamp to clamp both sides of the material and apply tension, stretch the material until it breaks, and record the elongation when the material breaks; the test method for the pressure value under 200% tensile deformation rate is: Use clamps to clamp both sides of the material and apply tension to stretch the material to a deformation rate of 200%, and record the pressure value at this time. The test materials are: material-2, material-3 that conform to general formula a, silica gel-2, silica gel-3, ordinary TPU-2, ordinary TPU-3, ordinary TPU-4, ordinary TPU-5, ordinary TPU-6 , Ordinary TPU-7.
实验结果表明:符合通式a的材料-2(其硬度为45A)的断裂延伸率为1350%,200%拉伸变形率下压力值为150psi,符合通式a的材料-3(其硬度为55A)的断裂延伸率为950%,200%拉伸变形率下压力值为200psi。相比硅胶-2和硅胶-3,材料-2的断裂延伸率更大,说明材料-2相比硅胶可以承受更大的形变,因此采用材料-2制备的球囊2也可以较好地封堵血管,充盈球囊2时发生断裂失效的概率更小,材料-2在200%拉伸变形率下压力值介于硅胶-2和硅胶-3的压力值之间,说明材料-2充盈时所需要的压力与硅胶相当,充盈时不需要很大的压力;而材料-3的断裂延伸率介于硅胶-2和硅胶-3,说明该材料的拉伸性能也与硅胶相当,满足球囊导引导管封堵血管的需求,材料-3在200%拉伸变形率下压力值略高于硅胶-3,但也满足临床需求。此外,如前文所述,符合通式a的材料-2和材料-3可以与其他医用高分子通过热熔焊接工艺粘接,避免了球囊2与导管主体1连接处使用胶水。综合而言,在充盈能力中,材料-2作为球囊材料相比于硅胶更优,材料-3与硅胶相当,但考虑到粘接性能,材料-2和材料-3相比硅胶都具有更大的优势。The experimental results show that: the elongation at break of material-2 that conforms to the general formula a (its hardness is 45A) is 1350%, and the pressure value under 200% tensile deformation rate is 150 psi. The material-3 that conforms to the general formula a (its hardness is The elongation at break of 55A) is 950%, and the pressure value at 200% tensile deformation is 200 psi. Compared with silica gel-2 and silica gel-3, material-2 has a greater elongation at break, indicating that material-2 can withstand greater deformation than silica gel. Therefore, balloon 2 prepared with material-2 can also be better sealed. Blocking blood vessels, the probability of fracture failure is smaller when balloon 2 is filled. The pressure value of material-2 at 200% tensile deformation rate is between the pressure values of silicone-2 and silicone-3, indicating that when material-2 is filled The required pressure is equivalent to that of silicone, and does not require a lot of pressure during filling; and the elongation at break of material-3 is between silicone-2 and silicone-3, indicating that the tensile properties of this material are also equivalent to silicone, which is satisfactory for balloons. In order to meet the needs of guiding catheters to block blood vessels, the pressure value of Material-3 at 200% tensile deformation rate is slightly higher than that of Silicone-3, but it also meets the clinical needs. In addition, as mentioned above, Material-2 and Material-3 conforming to the general formula a can be bonded with other medical polymers through a hot-melt welding process, avoiding the use of glue at the connection between the balloon 2 and the catheter body 1. Generally speaking, in terms of filling capacity, Material-2 is better than silica gel as a balloon material, and Material-3 is equivalent to silica gel. However, considering the bonding performance, both Material-2 and Material-3 have better filling capacity than silica gel. Big advantage.
对比材料-2和材料-3,球囊2的材料更优选具有45A的硬度。Comparing Material-2 and Material-3, the material of balloon 2 more preferably has a hardness of 45A.
普通TPU-3~普通TPU-7的硬度较大,断裂延伸率过小,且在200%拉伸变形率下压力值都较大,说明这些材料并不适合用于制备球囊2,其在充盈时不能较好贴合血管,破裂风险较大,且充盈所需要的压力大,充盈困难。普通TPU-2虽然硬度合适,在200%拉伸变形率下压力值较小,充盈难度低,但是其断裂延伸率不够,充盈时不能较好贴合血管,破裂风险较大,也不适合作为球囊2的材料。The hardness of ordinary TPU-3 to ordinary TPU-7 is relatively large, the elongation at break is too small, and the pressure value at 200% tensile deformation rate is large, indicating that these materials are not suitable for preparing balloon 2. It cannot fit the blood vessels well during filling, and the risk of rupture is greater, and the pressure required for filling is high, making filling difficult. Although ordinary TPU-2 has suitable hardness, low pressure value at 200% tensile deformation rate, and low filling difficulty, its elongation at break is not enough, and it cannot fit the blood vessels well during filling. The risk of rupture is high, and it is not suitable as a Balloon 2 material.
综上所述,符合通式a的材料-2和材料-3具有适中的硬度(45A和55A),使其与导管连接处的软硬过渡顺滑,且相比于其他材料具有最高的断裂延伸率,使其在作为球囊2使用的过程中,发生破裂的风险更低;且在充盈时和充盈后,其所需压力较低,与硅胶相当,优于其他普通TPU材料,充盈后对血管壁的压力更小,对血管造成损害的风险更低。To sum up, Material-2 and Material-3 that conform to the general formula a have moderate hardness (45A and 55A), making the transition between soft and hard at the connection with the catheter smooth, and have the highest fracture compared to other materials The elongation rate makes it less likely to rupture when used as a balloon 2; and the pressure required during and after filling is low, which is comparable to silicone and better than other ordinary TPU materials. There is less pressure on the blood vessel walls and a lower risk of damage to the blood vessels.
【实施例六】[Example 6]
请参考图6,图6为球囊2所用材料的硬度对充盈和回抽过程的影响,采用不同硬度的球囊材料和相同的工艺制备了具有不同硬度的球囊导管,通过向球囊2内注射1ml的生理盐水,观察球囊2的膨胀状态,之后,回抽生理盐水,观察球囊2的回抽状态。实验结果表明:球囊材料的硬度为20A与30A的球囊2在充盈过程中发生偏心现象,若在手术过程中,球囊2发生偏心现象,会造成对血管一侧产生的压力过大,可能对血管造成损伤,且无法很好地封堵血管;球囊材料的硬度为62A和80A时,球囊2在充盈过程中发生了偏心或者充盈不充分的现象,且在回抽过程中无法复原,即回抽充盈液后,球囊2无法紧贴导管主体1,若在手术过程中,球囊2无法回抽复原,不方便球囊封堵位置的调整,封堵完成后也会影响球囊导管的回撤;而球囊材料的硬度为40A、45A、55A和60A时,球囊2能正常充盈,充盈时球囊2不发生偏心,回抽时也能恢复球囊2紧贴导管主体1的状态。因此,在本发明中,球囊材料的硬度优选为40A~60A。Please refer to Figure 6. Figure 6 shows the effect of the hardness of the material used in the balloon 2 on the filling and withdrawal process. Balloon catheters with different hardnesses were prepared using balloon materials with different hardness and the same process. By inflating the balloon 2 Inject 1 ml of normal saline, and observe the expansion state of the balloon 2. Then, withdraw the normal saline, and observe the withdrawal state of the balloon 2. The experimental results show that the balloon 2 with a hardness of 20A and 30A will be eccentric during the filling process. If the balloon 2 is eccentric during the operation, it will cause excessive pressure on one side of the blood vessel. It may cause damage to blood vessels and cannot block the blood vessels well; when the hardness of the balloon material is 62A and 80A, the balloon 2 is eccentric or insufficiently filled during the filling process, and cannot be withdrawn during the withdrawal process. Recovery, that is, after withdrawing the filling fluid, the balloon 2 cannot be close to the catheter body 1. If the balloon 2 cannot be withdrawn and recovered during the operation, it will be inconvenient to adjust the balloon sealing position, and it will also affect the Withdrawal of the balloon catheter; when the hardness of the balloon material is 40A, 45A, 55A and 60A, the balloon 2 can be filled normally. The balloon 2 will not be eccentric during filling, and the balloon 2 can be restored to close contact when withdrawing. The status of catheter body 1. Therefore, in the present invention, the hardness of the balloon material is preferably 40A to 60A.
