International Classification:
G01N 21/00
US Classification:
422 63, 422 64, 422 65, 422 67, 436176, 436180, 4352831, 4352841
Abstract:
An automated machine for handling and embedding tissue samples contained on microtome sectionable supports. The machine includes an input member configured to hold a plurality of the microtome sectionable supports prior to a tissue embedding operation. An output member is configured to hold a plurality of the microtome sectionable supports after the tissue embedding operation. A cooling unit is configured to hold at least one of the microtome sectionable supports during the tissue embedding operation. A motorized carrier assembly is mounted for movement and configured to hold at least one of the microtome sectionable supports. The carrier assembly moves the support from the input member to the cooling unit and, finally, to the output member. A dispensing device dispenses an embedding material onto the microtome sectionable support and at least one tissue sample carried by the microtome sectionable support during the embedding operation.

Assignee:
Tendon Technology, Ltd. - Pataskala OH
International Classification:
A61B 17/04
US Classification:
606232, 606233, 606103
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for repairing damaged tendons or ligaments. Various repair apparatus include an elongate tensile member and a pair of anchor structures connected for movement along the tensile member on either side of a repair site, such as a tear or laceration. The anchor structures may take many forms, and may include barbed, helical, and crimp-type anchors. In the preferred embodiments, at least one anchor structure is movable along the elongate tensile member to assist with adjusting a tendon segment to an appropriate repair position and the anchor structure or structures are then lockable onto the elongate tensile member to assist with affixing the tendon at the repair position. The invention further provides tendon-to-bone repair apparatus and methods employing similar concepts. Tendon retrieval devices of the invention include helical members for rotating into a tendon end and subsequently moving the tendon to an appropriate operating position.

Implantable devices and methods for fixation of soft tissue to soft tissue or soft tissue to bone tissue. Generally, the devices can include a body having at least a first area with a plurality of projections extending from the first area for attaching to the soft tissue, and a second area discrete from the first area. The body has physical characteristics sufficient to approximate or to support the soft tissue adjacent the first area with respect to the second area. The plurality of projections are configured to attach to the soft tissue and to distribute tension between the first area and the soft tissue. A soft tissue to bone tissue approximation device is configured to be attached to bone tissue and, using a plurality of projections, also attached to soft tissue.
