Abstract: A suture delivery device (100) for insertion into an internal tissue wall opening and delivery of a suturing apparatus to the internal tissue wall is provided. In one embodiment, the suture delivery device comprises at least one carrier tube (120), at least one leg (110), and a tensioning device (115, 415, 416). The at least one carrier tube is configured to house a pusher (130) and a suturing apparatus (140, 150), the carrier tube having an expulsion end. When the at least one leg is in an open position, the tensioning device exerts tension on the leg such that the leg is movably suspended and can pivot about the tensioning device in response to contacting a tissue wall, and the pusher and suturing apparatus are in an delivery configuration for delivery of the suturing apparatus to the internal tissue wall.

Abstract: An annuloplasty prosthesis (10) is less than a complete ring (e.g., it may be C-shaped or U-shaped). The prosthesis has a structural member (20) that basically gives the prosthesis its shape. The structural member is provided with surface portions that are transverse (22a, 22b) to adjacent portions of the surface of the structural member. At least two of these transverse surface portions are spaced from one another and face toward one another along the length of the structural member. Sutures (30a1, 30a2, 30b1, 30b2) that are used to implant the prosthesis and that are respectively adjacent to these two transverse surface portions are thereby prevented from moving farther apart along the length of the prosthesis.

Abstract translation: 瓣膜成形假体（10）小于完整的环（例如，其可以是C形或U形）。 假体具有基本上给予假体其形状的结构构件（20）。 结构构件设置有与结构构件的表面的相邻部分横向（22a，22b）的表面部分。 这些横向表面部分中的至少两个彼此间隔开并且沿着结构构件的长度朝向彼此面对。 用于植入假体并且分别邻近这两个横向表面部分的缝合线（30a1,30b2,301a，30b2）因此被防止沿着假体长度移动得更远。

Abstract: A prosthesis (10) for a heart valve (e.g., the mitral valve) is generally C-shaped in plan view. Points at the top (12) and bottom (14) of the C lie in a plan view plane. The back (30) of the C rises above the plan view plane between the top and bottom points. Free end portions (42, 44) of the C may also rise above the plan view plane. The prosthesis is accordingly saddle-shaped. The back of the C may have an indentation that extends toward the open side of the C. In use as a mitral valve prosthesis the top and bottom of the C are respectively adjacent the commissures of the valve, and the back of the C is adjacent the posterior section of the valve. The prosthesis may be rigid or semi-rigid.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for cleaning a surgical instrument during a surgical procedure insert at least the portion of the surgical instrument that is to be cleaned into a vessel containing a liquid and applying ultrasonic vibrations to the liquid within the vessel to generate cavitation bubbles in the liquid. The bubbles formed by cavitation of the liquid are very effective at removing debris from the surgical instrument, particularly from crevices and difficult-to-reach areas of the surgical instrument. The liquid also can be heated by a heating element of the vessel or by activating a heat-generating transducer of the surgical instrument being cleaned, or both.
