摘要:
A method of deploying a surgical fastener including the step of introducing the fastener into a body of a patient while the fastener is in a first shape having a first loop with a back span and an original size and shape. The method involves moving the end segments of the fastener in a first manner away from each other while maintaining the fastener in a closed loop. The method also involves moving the end segments of the fastener in a second manner away from each other to open the loop. The method further involves forming the fastener into a second loop having a width greater than the width of the first loop.
摘要:
A method of deploying a surgical fastener into a patient by introducing the fastener into a body of a patient while the fastener is in a first shape having a first loop with a back span and an original size and shape. The method then involves moving end segments of the fastener away from each other substantially along an entire length thereof while keeping the back span in substantially its original size and shape. The method then involves forming the fastener into a second loop having a width greater than a width of the first loop.

摘要:
A cartridge containing a fastener. The cartridge has an elongated sheath containing at least one tissue penetrating member. The penetrating member at least partially houses a fastener. The fastener has at least two anchors connected together by a non-resilient flexible suture which does not resist deformation under compressible loads. The cartridge further includes a means for deploying the anchors, wherein the means is movable within the sheath.
摘要:
A reloadable device for deploying fasteners. The device has a handle and at least one actuator. The handle is connected to an elongated hollow housing having distal and proximal ends. The device has a first cartridge containing at least one fastener releasably connectable to the handle. The fastener has at least two anchors connected together by a non-resilient flexible suture which does not resist deformation under compressible loads. The device also includes a means, adjacent the handle, for facilitating removal of the first cartridge from the handle and replacing it with a second cartridge.

A system for tissue apposition includes a delivery assembly having a tissue clip selectively secured thereto for the deployment and application of the tissue clip. The tissue clip is shaped and dimensioned for engaging spaced locations along a span of tissue and upon rotation thereof drawing the spaced locations together into apposition to thereby create a fold of tissue.
