Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine steuerbare Infusionspumpe mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a controllable infusion pump having the features of the preamble of claim 1.
Eine derartige implantierbare steuerbare Infusionspumpe ist aus einer offenkundigen Vorbenutzung der Anmelderin bekannt, auf die
Bei der bekannten implantierbaren steuerbaren Infusionspumpe hängt der Druck, mit dem das aus dem Infusatraum ausgetriebene Infusat in die Drosselstrecke eintritt, von der Federrate des den Infusatraum von dem Treibmittelraum trennenden elastischen Element und dem mit der Temperatur des Treibmittels schwankenden Druck des Treibmittels ab. Dies hat zur Folge, dass die Rate, mit der das Infusat von der Infusionspumpe über den Katheteranschluss dem Patienten zugeführt wird, nicht konstant ist: Bei einer den Druck des Treibmittels unterstützenden Federrate des elastischen Elements, also bei dessen Dehnung, und/oder bei einer über dem Treibmittel-Nenndruck (etwa dem bei 37°C erreichten Druck) liegenden Treibmittel-Istdruck wird pro Zeiteinheit relativ viel, bei einer dem Druck des Treibmittelraums entgegen wirkenden Federrate des elastischen Elements und/oder einem (bei einer Temperatur unter 37°C erreichten) unter dem Treibmittel-Nenndruck liegenden Treibmittel-Istdruck wird pro Zeiteinheit relativ wenig Infusat abgegeben.In the known implantable, controllable infusion pump, the pressure with which the infusate expelled from the infusate space enters the throttle section depends on the spring rate of the elastic element separating the infusate space from the propellant space and the pressure of the propellant fluctuating with the temperature of the propellant. This has the consequence that the rate at which the infusate is supplied from the infusion pump via the catheter connection to the patient is not constant: at a spring rate of the elastic element which supports the pressure of the propellant, ie during its elongation, and / or at one Above the nominal blowing agent pressure (approximately the pressure reached at 37 ° C) actual blowing agent pressure per unit time is relatively high, at a pressure of the propellant space counteracting spring rate of the elastic element and / or reached (at a temperature below 37 ° C. ) Under the propellant nominal pressure blowing agent actual pressure is given per unit time relatively little infusate.
Der Erfindung liegt damit die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine steuerbare implantierbare Infusionspumpe zu schaffen, bei der die genannten Infusatdruckschwankungen kompensiert werden.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a controllable implantable infusion pump, in which the said Infusatdruckschwankungen be compensated.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, wobei sich der Begriff Tastverhältnis als Verhältnis der Zeit, zu der das Ventil geöffnet ist, zu der Gesamtzeit versteht.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1, wherein the term duty cycle as the ratio of the time at which the valve is open to understand the total time.
Um den nicht immer zu vernachlässigenden Gegendruck des an den Katheteranschluss angeschlossenen, zu dem Patienten führenden Katheter die Ist-Infusionsrate zu korrigieren, wird auch dieser mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 2 kompensiert. Anspruch 3 gibt ein bevorzugte Ausbildung mit einer Pulsweitenmodulation an, auch eine Impulsabstandsmodulation ist aber möglich.In order to correct the not always negligible back pressure of the connected to the catheter connection, leading to the patient catheter, the actual infusion rate, this is compensated with the features of claim 2. Claim 3 indicates a preferred embodiment with a pulse width modulation, but a pulse spacing modulation is possible.
Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels erläutert.The invention will be explained below with reference to an embodiment.
Das Steuergerät berechnet anhand der Vorgaben des Arztes die Soll-Infusionsrate, also die Menge an Infusat, die pro Zeiteinheit über die erste Drosselstrecke dem Patienten appliziert werden soll. Bei einer Übermittlung der Soll-Infusionsrate von dem Steuergerät an die Pumpe berechnet diese die einzuhaltende Pulsweite durch Division der vorgegebenen Infusionsrate durch die jeweilige Druckdifferenz über der Drossel und der Multiplikation des Ergebnisses mit einem festen, sich aus dem Produkt der Pulsdauer mit dem der jeweiligen Pumpe eigenen Strömungswiderstand der Drossel ergebenden Wert.
Schwankungen des Infusatdrucks vor (oder ggf. über) der Drossel werden so durch ein umgekehrt proportionale Anpassung der Pulsweite kompensiert.Variations of the infusate pressure before (or possibly over) the throttle are thus compensated by an inversely proportional adjustment of the pulse width.
Eine Korrektur der Pulsweite braucht nur bei einer Änderung der Soll-Infusionsrate und einer erheblichen Änderung der Druckdifferenz (was vorzugsweise mit einem durch die Pulsperiode vorgegebenen Zeitabstand geprüft wird) zu erfolgen. Auf diese Weise wird von dem von einer Batterie betriebenen Rechner benötige Energie gespart.A correction of the pulse width needs to be done only with a change in the target infusion rate and a significant change in the pressure difference (which is preferably checked with a predetermined by the pulse period time interval). In this way, the energy required by the battery-operated computer is saved.
Die Pumpe kann weiter mit einer zweiten Drosselstrecke versehen sein, die das Infusat dauerhaft abgibt. Die erste, mit einem gesteuerten Ventil versehene Drosselstrecke dient dabei zum Titrieren, also zur Festlegung der Medikamentkonzentration in dem Infusat und/oder zur zeitweisen Gabe einer zusätzlichen Menge an Infusat. Das – bezüglich der Genauigkeit kritische – Titrieren und die Bolusgabe können bei der vorgeschlagenen Ausbildung der Infusionspumpe exakter erfolgen.The pump may further be provided with a second throttle section, which releases the infusate permanently. The first, provided with a controlled valve throttle section is used for titration, ie to determine the drug concentration in the infusate and / or for temporary administration of an additional amount of infusate. The titration and the bolus administration, which are critical with regard to accuracy, can be carried out more accurately in the case of the proposed design of the infusion pump.
