Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine implantierbare Infusions pumpe mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1, die Patienten implantiert wird, die einen ständigen Bedarf an Zufuhr eines Arzneimittels haben, beispiels weise Schmerzpatienten und Spastikern.The invention relates to an implantable infusion pump with the features of the preamble of the claim 1, the patient is implanted, a permanent Have a need for a drug delivery, for example wise pain patients and spastic patients.
Bei der aus der DE 195 15 722 C1 bekannten Infusions pumpe sind die Mehrzahl von Drosselstrecken als in ei nen Chip eingeätzte Vertiefungen ausgebildet, die Wahl der "aktiven" Drosselstrecke erfolgt durch die Wahl ei ner Einbaulage des Chips, bei der die gewünschte Dros selstrecke konnektiert ist. Eine nachträgliche Verände rung der Durchflußrate ist nicht möglich. In the infusion known from DE 195 15 722 C1 pumps are the more throttle sections than in egg formed a chip etched recesses, the choice the "active" throttle section is made by choosing egg ner installation position of the chip, in which the desired Dros is connected. A subsequent change Flow rate is not possible.
Aus der DE-OS 28 55 713 ist eine Vorrichtung bekannt, bei der mehrere Infusionsflaschen über stellbare Venti le von außen zusammengeschaltet werden können. Die US 5 318 515 zeigt eine außenliegende Infusionspumpe, bei der mehrere parallele Wege über Ventile einzeln geöff net werden können.From DE-OS 28 55 713 a device is known with multiple infusion bottles via adjustable venti le can be interconnected from the outside. U.S. 5,318,515 shows an external infusion pump, at which opens several parallel paths individually via valves can be net.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine implan tierbare Infusionspumpe zu schaffen, bei der die nach der Implantation von außen geänderte Durchflußrate von außen sensiert werden kann.The invention has for its object an implan to create a viable infusion pump, in which the after the external rate of implantation changed from can be sensed outside.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Die Unteransprüche geben vor teilhafte Weiterbildungen dieser Infusionspumpe an.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1 solved. The sub-claims specify partial further training of this infusion pump.
Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand einer Zeichnung erläutert. Dabei zeigt die einzige Figur eine schemati sche Darstellung der Drosselstrecken, der Ventile und der zwischen den Ventilen vorgeschalteten Druckmeßein richtungen.The invention is described below with reference to a drawing explained. The only figure shows a schematic cal representation of the throttle sections, valves and the upstream pressure measurement between the valves directions.
Die - als Ganzes nicht dargestellte - Infusionspumpe weist ein Gehäuse auf, das einen Balg aufnimmt, in den ein einen Dampfdruck erzeugendes Treibmittel eingefüllt ist. Der verbleibende Raum nimmt das dem Patienten zu verabreichende Arzneimittel auf.The infusion pump, not shown as a whole has a housing that receives a bellows in the a blowing agent generating a steam pressure is filled is. The remaining space increases this for the patient administering drugs.
Ein in der einzigen Figur schematisch dargestellter Chip ist mit vier durch Einätzen von Fluidbahnen gebil dete Drosselstrecken 12, 14, 16, 18 unterschiedlicher Länge versehen, deren Eingänge mit dem Arzneimittelraum verbunden sind, so daß an den Eingängen der Drossel strecken 12, 14, 16, 18 das zu verabreichende Arznei mittel mit einem durch den Dampfdruck des Treibmittels bestimmten Druck anliegt. Hinter den Ausgängen der Drosselstrecken 12, 14, 16, 18 liegen Druckmeßeinrich tungen 28, 30, 32, 34, die den Druck an dem jeweiligen Ausgang der Drosselstrecken 12, 14, 16, 18 sensieren und über - nicht den Gegenstand dieser Erfindung bil dende - Mittel von außen abfragbar sind.A schematically illustrated in the single figure chip is provided with four gebil finished by etching of fluid paths throttle sections 12, 14, 16, 18 of different lengths, whose inputs are connected with the drug chamber, so that stretch at the inputs of the throttle 12, 14, 16 , 18 the drug to be administered is present at a pressure determined by the vapor pressure of the propellant. Behind the outputs of the throttle sections 12 , 14 , 16 , 18 are Druckmeßeinrich lines 28 , 30 , 32 , 34 , which sense the pressure at the respective outlet of the throttle sections 12 , 14 , 16 , 18 and - not the subject of this invention - Funds can be queried from outside.
In Strömungsrichtung hinter den Druckmesseinrichtungen 28, 30, 32, 34 liegen Ventile 20, 22, 24, 26, die von außen über - nicht den Gegenstand dieser Erfindung bil dende - Mittel schaltbar sind.In the flow direction behind the pressure measuring devices 28 , 30 , 32 , 34 are valves 20 , 22 , 24 , 26 , which can be switched from the outside via means not forming the subject matter of this invention.
Ein weiteres Ventil 36 ist zwischen der Zusammenführung der Ausgänge der Ventile 20, 22, 24, 26 und dem Kathe teranschluß angeordnet, dem eine weitere Druckmeßein richtung 38 vorgeschaltet ist.Another valve 36 is arranged between the merging of the outputs of the valves 20 , 22 , 24 , 26 and the Kathe teranschluß, which is a further Druckmeßein direction 38 upstream.
Die parallele Schaltung der Drosselstrecken 12, 14, 16, 18 zwischen dem Arzneimittelraum und dem Katheteran schluß 10 und die Vorsehung der Ventile 20, 22, 24, 26 erlaubt eine nachträgliche Veränderung der Durchfluß rate durch ein entsprechendes Schalten der Ventile.The parallel connection of the throttle sections 12 , 14 , 16 , 18 between the drug room and the catheter circuit 10 and the provision of the valves 20 , 22 , 24 , 26 allows a subsequent change in the flow rate by a corresponding switching of the valves.
Wegen der hohen Sicherheitsanforderungen ist es notwen dig, daß die Ist-Stellung der Ventile sensiert und von außen abgefragt werden kann. Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Vorsehung der Druckmeßeinrichtungen 28, 30, 32, 34 erfüllt: in dem geöffneten Zustand des einer Druckmeß einrichtung nachgeschalteten Ventils entspricht der an liegende Druck dem in dem Katheteranschluß (also im we sentlichen athmosphärischem Druck), da der Druck in der zugehörigen Drosselstrecke abfällt, in dem geschlosse nen Zustand dagegen im wesentlichen dem Treibmittel druck, da bei fehlender Strömung kein Druckabfall stattfindet (liegt also in der Größenordnung von 2 bar). Entsprechend mißt die dem weiteren, als Sicher heitsventil dienenden Ventil 36 vorgeschaltete Druck meßeinrichtung 38 in der geöffneten Stellung des Ven tils 36 den Druck an dem Katheteranschluß, in der ge schlossenen Stellung des Ventils 36 dagegen dann, wenn wenigstens eines der Ventile 20, 22, 24, 26 geöffnet ist, den Treibmitteldruck.Because of the high safety requirements, it is necessary that the actual position of the valves can be sensed and queried from the outside. This object is achieved by the provision of the pressure measuring devices 28 , 30 , 32 , 34 : in the open state of the valve connected downstream of a pressure measuring device, the applied pressure corresponds to that in the catheter connection (i.e. essentially atmospheric pressure), since the pressure in the associated throttle section drops, in the closed state, however, essentially the propellant pressure, since there is no pressure drop in the absence of flow (is in the order of 2 bar). Accordingly, the other, serving as a safety valve 36 upstream pressure measuring device 38 in the open position of the Ven valve 36 measures the pressure at the catheter connection, in the closed position of the valve 36, however, when at least one of the valves 20 , 22 , 24 , 26 is open, the propellant pressure.
Die Vorsehung einer weiteren, den Drosselstrecken 12, 14, 16, 18 vorgeschalteten Druckmeßeinrichtung 27 er laubt die Messung des vor den Drosselstrecken anliegen den Drucks und damit eine Ermittlung des über den Dros selstrecken tatsächlich abfallenden Drucks.The provision of a further, the throttle sections 12 , 14 , 16 , 18 upstream pressure measuring device 27 he allows the measurement of the pressure in front of the throttle sections and thus a determination of the pressure actually dropping across the throttle sections.
