Assignee:
Tyco Healthcare Group LP - New Haven CT
International Classification:
A61B 17/00
US Classification:
606151
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a method and system for the repair of ventral hernias. The method includes the steps of providing a needle; providing a barbed suture having a distal end attached to said needle; providing a surgical mesh; rolling said surgical mesh, said barbed suture, and said needle to form a rolled mesh having said needle oriented substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of said rolled mesh; transferring said rolled mesh into a body cavity via a laparoscopic device; unrolling and laying said surgical mesh under a ventral hernia in an abdominal wall; threading said needle and barbed suture through said surgical mesh and said abdominal wall; and trimming said barbed suture.
Method Of Suture Identification And Mesh Marking For Orienting And Locating A Mesh During Hernia Repair
US Patent:
8579922, Nov 12, 2013
Filed:
Sep 24, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/889497
Inventors:

Assignee:
Covidien LP - Mansfield MA
International Classification:
A61B 17/04
US Classification:
606148
Abstract:
A suture kit includes a plurality of flexible strands of suture, each of the strands of suture having one or more suture markings indicative of a suture orientation and a mesh material configured to enable the strands of suture to be passed therethrough, wherein at least one quadrant/section of the mesh material having one or more mesh markings indicative of a mesh material orientation. The one or more suture markings include visual indicators and the one or more mesh markings include visual indicators, the suture visual indicators corresponding to the mesh visual indicators for indicating correct orientation of the mesh material with respect to tissue of a subject.
Suture Loaded Umbilical Mesh
US Patent:
2014002, Jan 23, 2014
Filed:
Mar 22, 2012
Appl. No.:
14/003575
Inventors:

Assignee:
Covidien LP - Mansfield MA
International Classification:
A61F 2/00
US Classification:
606151
Abstract:
A surgical mesh includes a body portion configured to extend across a tissue defect and a plurality of fibers secured to the body portion. The plurality of fibers extends outwardly from the body portion and is gathered at a hub for handling by a clinician. In embodiments, the plurality of fibers may be coupled to the mesh via one of knitting, weaving, or interlacing each fiber through yarns forming the body portion. In other embodiments, the plurality of fibers is coupled to the mesh via one of knotting, tying, welding, adhering, and fusing each fiber to yarns forming the body portion.
Welded Looped Suture
US Patent:
2012024, Sep 27, 2012
Filed:
Mar 14, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/419718
Inventors:
Jonathan Glick - Hamden CT, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/04
US Classification:
606148, 606228
Abstract:
A suture includes an elongate body and a filler material. The elongate body includes a distal end having first and second overlapping sections forming a loop. The filler material is disposed within at least a portion of a seam defined between the first and second overlapping sections of the elongate body to reinforce the first and second overlapping sections. A method of forming a reinforced looped suture includes providing a suture including an elongate body including a distal end having first and second overlapping sections defining a loop, and applying a filler material to a seam defined between the first and second overlapping sections.
Fastener And Drive Method For Soft Tissue Repair
US Patent:
2011029, Dec 1, 2011
Filed:

Randolph F. Lehn - Stratford CT, US
Randolph F. Lehn - Stratford CT, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/00
US Classification:
606151
Abstract:
A surgical fastener for delivering into body tissue during a surgical procedure is disclosed. The surgical fastener includes a continuous helical coil having a proximal end and a distal end. The continuous helical coil has a cross-section with at least five sides. A first helical coil section is located at the distal end. A tapered point extends from the first helical coil. A central passage that passes through the center of the fastener has a non-circular shape. The central passage defines a longitudinal axis. The continuous helical coil has a profile transverse to the longitudinal axis. The profile is non-circular. A tail is located at the proximal end of the continuous helical coil.
