摘要:
The invention relates to a support base (1″) for a suture thread having two opposite sides (12, 14) and comprising on one side (12) thereof a storage channel (2) for a suture thread in a wound position, and a holding zone (4) of one end of the suture thread, the holding zone (4) being surrounded by the storage channel (2), the support base (1) being characterized by having a through-opening (5) between the two sides (12, 14) thereof, the through-opening (5) extending into the holding zone (4) and continuing from the holding zone (4) in such a way as to intersect the storage channel (2), and a shutter (8) moving between an open position for uncovering the through-opening (5) between the two sides (12, 14) thereof, and a closed position for at least partially opening the through-opening (5), the moving shutter (8) being configured to project, in the open position thereof, from the side (14) of the base (1″) which is opposite to the side (12) on which the storage channel (2) is formed.
摘要:
Systems, devices and methods to improve safety and efficiency in an operating room comprise providing a suture package that holds new suture needles and needle receptacles for storing used needles. The devices can be safely worn for the surgeon to self-dispense new suture needles in the near surgical field and to secure the used needles into a needle trap or a needle retainer located on his extremity, on his operative instruments or on the surgical drapes. The device may provide automated and/or simplified needle counting both during use and after removal from the surgical field. The device may be configured for ergonomic and efficient use so as to minimize the actions and motions of the surgeon to dispense and secure the needle.

The invention relates to a device for storing and classifying at least one surgical suturing thread (3) fitted on a needle (30). This device is noteworthy in that it comprises a support (1), of which at least one part of one of the faces (11), called ‘top’ face, supports removable means (2) of fixing said thread (3), and in that said support (1) comprises means (5, 5′) of displaying technical characteristics specific to each suturing thread (30) and/or to each needle (30) to be stored. Applicable to the medical domain.
摘要:
A suture anchor driver has an elongated shaft, a handle at a proximal end of the shaft an anchor engagement at a distal end of the shaft and a clutch between the handle and the shaft. The clutch includes a slot for frictionally engaging a suture an engagement with the shaft and an engagement with the handle. The engagement with the shaft and the engagement with the handle are located with respect to one another such that driving torque applied to the handle urges open the slot to release its frictional engagement of the suture.

The invention relates to a multipurpose device for the safe handling of sharp surgical implements and comprises a molded thermoplastic body that includes a container portion and a scalpel holder section. Magnetic material in the container holds scalpel blades and/or needles after use and magnetic material on the holder section presents a needle for pick-up by a needle holder. The scalpel holder section supports a scalpel or scalpels in cantilever fashion for convenient gripping and withdrawal by a surgeon. The body has a shape and surface characteristics that assures a secure hand grip even in wet conditions.

The present disclosure provides a medical device package including a container for receiving a medical device having an area configured for storing at least one agent and a port for permitting the passage of a contact material between the outside the container and the area configured for storing the agent.
摘要:
Synthetic absorbable sutures are filled with a stabilizing agent, preferably a mixture of glycerol and calcium lactate, and inserted into a retainer having a narrow convoluted passageway. The retainer is inserted into an open foil pouch with a package stabilizing element such as a paper sheet filled with stabilizing agent. The package containing the suture, retainer and package stabilizing element is sterilized, aerated, equilibrated to a relatively high moisture level, and sealed. Long lengths of suture and doubled-over and tripled-over suture may be withdrawn from the retainer with low force without damaging the suture. Bends and kinks in the suture are prevented so as to provide a synthetic absorbable suture having highly desirable out of package hand and feel. The suture an removed from the package exhibits improved tissue drag characteristics.
摘要:
A resilient filament retaining package includes a plurality of panel members foldably connected to each other along transverse sides thereof and arranged to fold upon each other to form a plurality of superposed compartments defined between pairs of adjacent panel members. Each compartment is dimensioned to contain at least one flexible resilient filament portion therein in a coiled configuration. Receiving port apertures are provided in the forward panel member of each compartment and are intended to assist in loading individual filament portions in each compartment. The apertures are in general concentric alignment with each other such that each compartment may be accessed for loading purposes from a front side of the folded retainer package. A backing panel having a needle securing park may be attached to the folded package. A method for loading the package is also disclosed. The package can be particularly useful for retaining surgical sutures.
