Abstract

SE PREVE UN PASADOR DE SUTURA QUE COMPRENDE UNA GUIA DE SONDA TUBULAR ALARGADA (15) QUE SE EXTIENDE EN UNA DIRECCION DISTANTE DESDE LA EMPUÑADURA (110). UNA SONDA PUNTIAGUDA ALARGADA (115) ESTA DISPUESTA PARA PODER MOVERSE AXIALMENTE DENTRO DE LA GUIA DE SONDA TUBULAR (125). UNA CAVIDAD (160) ESTA PREVISTA SOBRE LA SONDA (115) Y UNA ABERTURA (130) ESTA PREVISTA SOBRE LA GUIA DE SONDA TUBULAR (125) PARA RECIBIR UNA SUTURA. LA SONDA (115) PUEDE MOVERSE AXIALMENTE RESPECTO DE LA GUIA DE SONDA (125) DE MANERA QUE LA CAVIDAD (160) SE ALINEE CON LA ABERTURA (130) PARA RECIBIR LA SUTURA. EN UNA SEGUNDA POSICION, LA CAVIDAD (160) SE SALE DEL ALINEAMIENTO CON LA ABERTURA (130) PARA ATRAPAR LA SUTURA DENTRO DE LA CAVIDAD.
