Heating type balloon catheter device, and elastic tube device and vibrator device for the catheter device

摘要

A heating-type balloon catheter device is provided. The catheter device may include a heating-type balloon at a top end portion of a catheter main body and a vibration imparting device connected to a base end portion of the catheter main body. The vibration imparting device may impart vibration to a liquid for heating in the heating-type balloon and include an elastic tube with a base end portion connected to the catheter main body and with a top end portion thereof closed. The elastic tube may be filled with a liquid for heating. A vibrator device having a roller rotating about a rotary shaft at a position offset to the rotary shaft may be provided. A margin volume part which is not pressed with the roller is provided on the side of the top end portion of the elastic tube.

主权项

1. An elastic tube device comprising an elastic tube which is expandable or constrictable in such a manner that tube walls of the elastic tube opposite to each other are caused to be closely attached to each other in a radial direction toward a direction in which the elastic tube is constrictable and that they are allowed to recover to their original shape due to their own elasticity when an external force is released;
wherein the elastic tube has a top end closed and a base end portion constituting a connection part for connecting to a catheter main body; wherein said elastic tube has a margin volume part disposed on a top end side so as not to be pressed by the external force, and wherein a plurality of indicators are disposed on an outer peripheral surface of the elastic tube at a spaced interval in a longitudinal direction of the elastic tube, each of the plurality of indicators being indicative of a size of the margin volume part to be disposed in accordance with a size of a balloon in a heating-type balloon catheter device.
