    摘要: The self securing suture includes a suture having a stiff end segment at a terminal end and a toggle disposed on the terminal end such that the stiff end segment and toggle define an acute angle between 25 degrees and 65 degrees. The toggle may be a metal or a biocompatible plastic. In one embodiment, a portion of the stiffened end segment is swaged onto the toggle in a closed channel. The present invention also includes methods for producing suture toggles. One method includes creating a partial channel on a toggle, stiffening an end segment of a suture thread, positioning a portion of the stiffened end segment in the partial channel, and swaging the toggle channel closed. The toggle and swaged suture thread may be coated with a biocompatible polymer. An alternative method of manufacture includes utilizing a tubular toggle, passing the stiffened end segment through the tube and swaging the toggle tube closed. In yet another method of manufacture for producing a suture toggle, a mold is utilized to form the toggle and the stiffened, positioned suture thread end segment.

    摘要: A surgical clamp in certain embodiments may be configured to operate with a surgical installation tool. The clamp may have two elongated members with a bight portion that joins the two elongated members at a proximal end of the clamp and that may bias the two elongated members in an open position at a distal end. The bight portion may have one or more engagement features, such as a slotted aperture or other engagement or coupling feature. A clasp mechanism at the distal end of the clamp may have a male or first component disposed on or adjacent one of the two elongated members and a female or second component disposed on or adjacent the other of the two elongated members at the distal end of the clamp. The installation tool may include an elongated member with a proximal end and a distal end that has an engagement feature to engage the clamp, such as at the bight portion. A handle in one embodiment may be provided at the proximal end of the installation tool, while a head at the distal end may be configured to receive and/or engage the proximal end of the clamp and may also be operable to articulate in at least one plane.
