Abstract
A closure system includes a catheter having an internal diameter D1 [mm]; and a closure device to be delivered to the hole or duct in the tissue through the catheter. The closure device includes: a first plate including a first center part, and a first extension part extending around the first center part and containing a resin having elastic restorability; and a waist part connected to the first center part. The first extension part has a thickness A1 [mm]. The waist part has a maximum dimension T1 [mm] in a plan view. The internal diameter D1 of the catheter is larger than 2×A1+T1.
Claims20
A closure system for closing a hole or duct in a tissue in a heart or for closing a hole or duct in a tissue continuous to the heart, comprising:
- a catheter having an internal diameter D1 [mm];
- and
- a closure device to be delivered to the hole or duct in the tissue through the catheter;
- wherein:
- the closure device comprises:
- a first plate including a first center part, and a first extension part extending around the first center part and containing a resin having elastic restorability;
- and a waist part connected to the first center part;
- the elastic restorability is a property by which the first extension part returns from a state in which the first extension part is folded such that surface portions of the first extension part face to each other, to a state in which the first extension part is extended around the first center part;
- the first extension part has a thickness A1 [mm];
- the waist part has a maximum dimension T1 [mm] in a plan view;
- and
- the internal diameter D1 of the catheter is larger than 2×A1+T1.
A manufacturing method of a closure device for closing a hole or duct in a tissue in a heart or for closing a hole or duct in a tissue continuous to the heart, wherein:
- the closure device comprises a first plate to cover the hole or duct;
- the first plate comprises a first center part, and a first extension part extending around the first center part and containing a resin having elastic restorability;
- the elastic restorability is a property by which the first extension part returns from a state in which the first extension part is folded such that surface portions of the first extension part face to each other, to a state in which the first extension part is extended around the first center part;
- the manufacturing method comprises a producing step that produces the closure device based on information on a shape and a position of the hole or duct in the tissue;
- and
- the producing step comprises a first plate designing step using a learning model that is trained with a training data in such a manner that the information on the shape and the position of the hole or duct in the tissue are inputted to the learning model, and that the learning model outputs design information including a planar shape, a thickness, and a material of the first extension part, wherein the training data includes shapes and positions of holes or ducts in tissues as input objects, and wherein the training data includes design information including planar shapes, thicknesses, and materials of first extension parts as output values.
