Description
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to a PFA mapping ablation catheter with double-bending double-basket array electrodes.
Background
Minimally invasive catheter ablation technology is the basic therapy for treating human arrhythmia diseases currently, and the basic principle is as follows: 1. puncture peripheral blood vessel of patient, establish the minimally invasive operation channel of the human cardiovascular system of passing in and out of the electrophysiological apparatus. 2. The treatment electrode, electrode combination or electrode array is precisely positioned at the predetermined focus under the guidance of various imaging and electrophysiology mapping techniques. 3. Various ablative energies are delivered under the guidance of various monitoring and evaluation indexes, and target focuses are destroyed or improved as required, so that the aim of curing arrhythmia diseases is fulfilled. Depending on the ablation energy used, the morphology and characteristics of the ablation electrode employed will vary. For example, when conventional radio frequency energy is applied, a single electrode ablation mode is typically used, and a bipolar ablation mode at a distance of 10-30cm may also be employed in some special cases; when cryoablation energy is used, balloon ablation modes are typically used that can be inflated and deflated; when pulsed electric field energy ablation is employed, either conventional single, bipolar ablation modes or electrode combination or electrode array ablation modes may be employed.
Although the conventional radiofrequency ablation energy release mode has many advantages, such as easy long-distance transmission, quantitative control, simple catheter control and the like, the conventional radiofrequency ablation energy release mode also has very obvious disadvantages, such as no tissue specificity, easy generation of bubbles, eschar and sudden vibration, long single-point ablation time, poor multipolar discharge effect and the like. To overcome the above-described drawbacks of radio frequency energy, pulsed electric field (PFA) ablation energy has been developed. Ablation patterns employing multiple electrode combinations to deliver pulsed electric field energy are particularly useful in the treatment of complex arrhythmic conditions, such as various types of atrial fibrillation. The ablation technology has the advantages of strong tissue selectivity, good operation safety and high ablation efficiency, and is expected to replace the traditional electrode radiofrequency ablation mode.
The existing PFA multipolar catheter mainly comprises PulsedFA annular multipolar catheters and CardiPulse petal-shaped multipolar catheters.
PulsedFA annular multipolar catheter structure is characterized in that: 1. an electrode ring with the diameter of 3-4cm and vertical to the catheter body is arranged at the head end of the catheter. 2. The electrode ring is uniformly provided with 6-8 identical platinum iridium ring electrodes from far to near. The use scheme of the catheter is as follows: 1. the annular multipolar PFA catheter is delivered into the target chamber through an adjustable curved sheath that is pre-positioned in the target chamber. 2. The head end of the adjustable curved sheath tube is controlled to bend, and the PFA catheter is guided to enter the vestibular part of the target pulmonary vein. 3. And verifying and adjusting the position of the PFA electrode ring through a three-dimensional image and electrophysiology mapping technology. 4. And forming an ablation electrode group by two adjacent electrodes, and synchronously distributing PFA energy to complete the ablation process.
CardiPulse petal-shaped multipolar catheter structure is characterized in that: 1. at the head end of the catheter petal-shaped multi-electrode ring. 2. 3 identical ring electrodes are equidistantly arranged at the top end of each ring flap. 3. The catheter has an open lumen throughout for passage of the guide wire. The use scheme of the catheter is as follows: 1. the petal multipolar PFA catheter is delivered into the target chamber through an adjustable curved sheath that is pre-positioned in the target chamber. 2. Under the guidance of perspective or three-dimensional images, the head end of the adjustable curved sheath tube is controlled to bend, and the head end of the guide wire is guided to enter the proximal end of the target pulmonary vein. 3. Under the guidance of perspective or three-dimensional images, a guide wire is fixed, and petal-shaped electrodes are sent into the vestibular part of the target pulmonary vein through the guidance of the head end of the guide wire. 4. And verifying and adjusting the positions of the petal electrode rings through three-dimensional images and electrophysiology mapping technology. 5. Two adjacent electrodes on the petal ring radial line and the latitude line form an ablation electrode group, and PFA energy is synchronously released to complete the ablation process.
The two PFA multi-electrode catheters still have the following defects that as the two multi-electrode catheters are of a single-ring structure, the head ends of the electrode catheters extend into the vestibule of the pulmonary veins, the ablation electrode rings cannot be well coaxial with the vestibule of the pulmonary veins, so that the ablation effect is not ideal, the annular head ends of the two multi-electrode catheters are of fixed sizes, the sizes of the ablation rings cannot be changed along with the diameter changes of different patients or the pulmonary veins of the same patient, so that the ablation electrode groups cannot be well attached to irregular vestibule tissues, and the individual ablation rings cannot be designed according to different forms of the vestibule of different pulmonary veins. Because the two PFA catheters are of annular structures, the upper and lower pulmonary vein combination parts and other linear ablation parts cannot be effectively ablated, the purpose of ablation of the pulmonary vein vestibular macrocycle is achieved, meanwhile, the ablation catheter does not have a head end bending function, the direction and the angle of an electrode ring cannot be changed automatically, and the operation efficiency is low in the use process of an operator.
