Technical background
Through conduit Renal denervation (Transcatheter Renal Denervation, TRenD) or kidney to go sympathetic nerve (Renal Sympathetic Denervation, RSD) treatment be the present up-to-date hypertensive method of a kind of non-medicine interventional therapy in the world.It comes from the beginning of this century several American physician in treatment during an intractable renal colic patient, in the situation that the whole bag of tricks is failed to respond to any medical treatment, adopted the method for CT guiding lower benefit caine hilus renalis district sealing, the result is surprisingly found out that patient not only renal colic is alleviated simultaneously also with the reduction of blood pressure and increasing of urine amount.These doctors with scientific research brains are studied in detail this strange phenomenon.Pass through searching document, they found as far back as nineteen fifty-three, American German doctor Smithwick just adopts surgical operation to cut off the method treatment of visceral nerve to 1226 intractable hypertension patients, through following up a case by regular visits to of 5-14, patient's hypertension all obtains good control, because postoperative complication is more and the good efficacy of antihypertensive agent, this operation was eliminated gradually afterwards.The pioneers of these TRenD treatments find through research, nerve around the renal artery only has sympathetic nerve, and orthosympathetic the putting forth energy property that is extremely delighted (Sympathetic Hyperactivity) is relevant with numerous disease, known pathological changes comprises the arrhythmia of hypertension, renal failure, diabetes, heart failure and some type at present, so again this type of disease is referred to as at present sympathetic nerve the putting forth energy property diseases related (Sympathetic Hyperactivity Related Diseases, SHRD) that is extremely delighted.Can so, do not adopt operation and radio frequency is eliminated orthosympathetic the putting forth energy property that is extremely delighted in the renal artery blood vessel whether also reach the same effect of operation? through research repeatedly, conclusion is sure.2009 world-renowned medical journal " lancet " delivered with the research paper headed by the Australian doctor Krum, having confirmed to get involved in the renal artery radio frequency method is effective to treatment hypertension.Therefore the perpetrator Mark Gelfand of this technology and Howard R Levin win 2011 annual U.S. Edison invented silver medals.This patent inventor once had the honor to cooperate to carry out in 4 years clinical research with two scientists, had still kept good relation with them so far.
JIUYUE in 2011 24 days held Asia-Pacific TRenD meeting in Hong Kong Marriott Hotel, put on display at present unique in the world commercial TRenD ablation catheter in the meeting---the last word SymplicityR of Medtronic Inc. and on-the-spot demonstration 3 example operations (live in conference by transmission of video).The SymplicityR conduit is a solid conduit, push rod on the current rear promotion control handle, catheter tip can be become by linear " J " shape, so that catheter tip tightly facing to arteriorenal medial wall in order to the teleneuron of giving of blood vessel wall is carried out point-like and melts, usually 6-8 point need to be melted, just therapeutic effect can be reached.This ablation catheter and method have following deficiency: (1) point-like melts and can't guarantee that this point is the point of sympathetic innervation, therefore will do 6-8 point, and a shot at a bird shoot bird to be similar to sand-blasting gun; By the position of X-ray examination indirect observation conduit, therefore can't guarantee that 8 ablation points are even range distribution at Wall of Artery when (2) treatment operates, might on same point, repeatedly melt to have the danger of vascular puncture; (3) ablation points is more causes that easily cicatrix is too much on the blood vessel wall, causes renal artery stenosis; (4) position at sympathetic nerve place on can't mapping renal artery wall, thus also can't in operation, detect the kidney sympathetic nerve whether melt to or melt whether fully.Often need to judge the effect that melts by postoperative clinical examination that if poor effect, patient also will accept for the second time operation.In this case, the conduit of a better efficacy of invention is exactly the task of top priority of TRenD Therapeutic Method.
Summary of the invention
For above shortcoming, the invention provides electrical mapping and radio frequency ablation catheter, accurately mapping sympathetic innervation point in a kind of blood vessel, and it is carried out precision ablation, each mapping ablation points is evenly distributed, can operate multiple spot simultaneously, after melting again mapping judge ablation effect.
The technical solution adopted for the present invention to solve the technical problems is: patient just can know length and the diameter of renal artery blood vessel behind renal arteriography, the mapping ablation catheter is in seal wire inserts corresponding renal artery, and bonding jumper to the corresponding diameter (showing at diameter labelling window) of opening catheter tip makes it be close to the renal artery inwall.When the renal artery sympathetic activation, one (several) root bonding jumper of corresponding site will measure, and melts corresponding bonding jumper and gets final product.Melt to do again after complete and detect the effect that melts with observation, if melt not exclusively again repetitive operation until definite effect.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: (1) guarantees that catheter ablation point can be evenly distributed in blood vessel; (2) under the guiding of mapping, the point of guaranteeing catheter ablation is the position of SNE domination, has reduced the drawback that blindly melts; (3) after melting, again detect, can guarantee the effect that melts; (4) because mapping is arranged, so the energy that melts can be as far as possible little, can avoid to greatest extent the danger of vascular puncture; Direction with renal artery blood flow when (5) the conduit bonding jumper is opened is consistent, and blood flow can circulate between the bonding jumper of opening, and is little for impact on the blood of kidney, the infringement of having avoided kidney to cause because of ischemia at normal temperatures; (6) because can precision ablation, therefore can reduce to greatest extent the complication of this treatment and reduce the risk of operation.
