    摘要: The present invention features an ultrasonic surgical system including an ultrasonically vibrating blade, and retractable grasper. The grasper includes a grasping jaw or clamp that is movable, in a direction perpendicular to the primary vibratory mode of the ultrasonic blade element, from an open, extended position to a closed position in which tissue is grasped between the jaw and the vibrating blade, and to a retracted position for storage. The jaw is preferably hinge-actuated.

    摘要: A soft tissue fixation assembly comprises an anchor element which is installed in a bone or other tissue and a suture joiner element which mates with the anchor element. The suture joiner element includes a suture retaining element that securely retains suture and which is connected to the anchor element. Energy is transmitted through the suture joiner element to cause relative vibratory motion between the respective components and localized collapsing and compressing of the suture joiner element to secure the suture within the suture joiner element and to secure the suture joiner element within the anchor element. The soft tissue segment is thus fixed to the bone via the sutures secured in the bone anchor.

    摘要: A fused loop of an elongated material, such as a surgical suture, and apparatus for making the loop are described. Portions of one or more segments of elongated material may be fused in an ultrasonic welding process to form a welded joint. Multiple materials each with different a different melting point may be used for one or more fibers within the elongated material. The elongated material may include a sheath, which may be used to protect a core within the elongated material. A fused region of the fused loop may be formed when a material with a lower melting temperature, compared to one or more other materials in the elongated material, is caused to melt. A related ultrasonic welding apparatus may include a temperature sensor for control of the welding process.
