    摘要: A prosthetic ligament assembly includes a nonaugmented prosthetic ligament for permanently replacing a natural ligament spanning first and second body members, such as the femur and tibia, and a bone screw adapted for tensioning the prosthetic ligament during implantation. The prosthetic ligament includes a load bearing member intertwined into a plain braid from a plurality of biocompatible, high strength, ultra high molecular weight polyethylene yarns. Each yarn includes at least fifty fibers and has a tensile strength greater than or equal to about 100,000 psi. The load bearing member has a gage section and a loop at each end thereof for anchoring the load bearing member to the body members. The load bearing member is preloaded to remove slack therefrom. The load bearing member may be used alone or may be formed into a hollow braid having a core disposed within the hollow portion of the braid to permit radiographic visualization of the prosthetic ligament. A sheath may be friction fit or molded onto the exterior of the gage section. The assembly also includes one or two bone screws for complimentary engagement with the loops of the load bearing member. The bone screws have a tapered section extending beneath the head of the screw to the shank for tensioning the prosthetic ligament during implantation.

    摘要: Compressible heart valve annulus sizing templates suitable for minimally-invasive or otherwise reduced accessibility surgeries. The sizing templates may be folded, rolled, or otherwise compressed into a reduced configuration for passage through an access tube or other such access channel. Once expelled from the access tube the sizing templates expand to their original shape for use in sizing the annulus. The templates may be formed of an elastomeric polymer material such as silicone, a highly elastic metal such as NITINOL, or both. Grasping tabs or connectors for handles permit manipulation from outside the body. A NITINOL wireform may be compressed for passage through an access tube and expelled from the distal end thereof into a cloth cover to assume a sizer shape.

    摘要: Medical devices, such as percutaneous prosthetic heart valves can include a stent or frame structure component. The stent can be shot peened, laser peened, and/or ultrasonically peened, thereby reducing surface abnormalities, improving surface appearance, and/or increasing fatigue life of the device.

    摘要: A flexible, isoelastic polymer surgical suture and suture construct formed from a material selected from the group consisting of silicone, polyurethane, polyurethane copolymers, rubber, and other hemocompatible and biocompatible thermoplastic elastomers, wherein the suture and suture construct is formed from a single or multiple filament, the suture and suture construct having an elastic modulus between about 50 to 2000 psi, a tensile strength between about 500 to 50,000 psi, and a tensile elongation between about 100 to 1000 percent. In an alternate suture construct, the construct includes a base material and an inner core formed from a higher-strength fiber or group of fibers having a helical orientation. The low-modulus base material is selected from the group consisting of silicone, polyurethane, polyurethane copolymers, rubber, and other hemocompatible and biocompatible thermoplastic elastomers. In an alternate suture construct, the construct includes a base material and an inner core formed from a higher-strength fiber or group of fibers having a helical orientation. The inner core has an elastic modulus above about 2,000 psi, a tensile strength above about 10,000 psi, and a tensile elongation between about 1 to 80 percent.
