Definitions
- the invention relates to an ear catheter for transnasal or transmeatal introduction into the Eustachian tube, which allows a medication to be made available in the middle ear area even over a longer period of time without it flowing away via the Eustachian tube.
- Treatment of the middle and inner ear can also be done via the middle ear area.
- An ear catheter inserted through the nose is often used for treatment, also to introduce medication.
- the administration of medication into the Eustachian tube or middle ear, especially in liquid form is often not sustainable, as the medication usually runs off into the nasopharynx shortly after administration.
- DE 10 2018 102 937 A1 describes an ear catheter that can be inserted into the Eustachian tube via the nasopharynx and includes an expandable balloon to seal it off from the nasopharynx.
- An injection channel is guided through the balloon so that a medication can be administered into the Eustachian tube distal to the balloon, and the balloon prevents the medication from flowing back into the nasopharynx.
- the medication is administered non-invasively using the well-known ear catheter via the nasopharynx and the auditory tube (the Eustachian tube).
- DE 10 2021 105 036 A1 also describes an ear catheter that can be inserted into the Eustachian tube via the nasopharynx.
- this application proposes an expandable coated nitinol basket or a balloon.
- the known ear catheters can still be improved in essential details, especially when using an expandable balloon as a sealing element. With such a design, it is essential to provide a convincing valve arrangement that reliably prevents the development of undesirable excess pressure in the ear as soon as medication is applied and that also prevents the inadvertent outflow of medication from the ear.
- the ear catheter according to the invention for insertion into the Eustachian tube comprises a catheter tube with at least three lumens, namely a first lumen as an application lumen for applying a medication (this can alternatively also be used as a guidewire lumen, provided it ends open distally), a second lumen as an inflation lumen for inflating a distally provided inflatable balloon and a third lumen as a pressure relief lumen for pressure relief in the middle ear area.
- the inflatable balloon is designed to seal the middle ear distally on the ear catheter so that the medication administered through the application lumen cannot flow out through the nasopharynx.
- the balloon should not be subjected to high pressure, as this can lead to injuries or pressure points in the sensitive middle ear.
- low-pressure balloons low-pressure cuffs
- a pressure limiter is provided, which preferably limits the pressure to below a slight overpressure.
- the pressure limiter is provided in particular in the form of an umbrella valve.
- the frame construction also serves as a handling aid and allows safe handling of the ear catheter.
- an overpressure limiter 13 - preferably in the form of a first umbrella valve - is provided between the proximally arranged one-way valve 12 and the distally arranged balloon and is fluid-permeable to the inflation lumen.
- an overpressure limiter 13 - preferably in the form of a first umbrella valve - is provided between the proximally arranged one-way valve 12 and the distally arranged balloon and is fluid-permeable to the inflation lumen.
- the compartment B forms a fluid-connected unit together with the pressure relief lumen of the catheter tube and is connected to the sealing element or the second umbrella valve, wherein a second recess 14a is provided in the frame element 4 for the sealing element or the second umbrella valve.
- Compartment A together with the inflation lumen of the catheter tube, forms a fluid-connected unit which is connected to the pressure limiter or the first umbrella valve via a first connection 8a, with a first recess 13a being provided in the frame element 3 for the pressure limiter or the first umbrella valve. If the pressure in the inflation lumen or in the combination of inflation lumen and compartment A rises above a certain pressure, the first umbrella valve opens.
- the inflation pressure is preferably limited to a slight overpressure by the first umbrella valve.
- the compartment B forms together with the pressure relief lumen of the catheter tube a fluid-connected unit which is connected to the sealing element or the second umbrella valve via a second connection 15, wherein a second recess 14a is provided in the frame element 4 for the sealing element or the second umbrella valve. If the pressure in the pressure relief lumen or in the combination of pressure relief lumen and compartment B rises above a certain pressure, the second umbrella valve opens. Preferably, the opening pressure of the second umbrella valve is set to practically 0 bar and the second umbrella valve functions as a sealing element.
- Second umbrella valve (sealing element; 14a: second recess)
- a First compartment (inflation lumen)
