Abstract

1,162,308. Suture packages. L. D. KURTZ, and W. H. SHAVE. 22 Sept., 1967 [6 Oct., 1966], No. 43152/67. Heading B8C. A surgical suture 20, with a needle 21 attached to one end, is placed on a main section B of a sheet 10 of card or the like, starting at end 22 and continuing in zig-zag fashion until a small amount of the suture adjacent the needle 21 is left extending over side edge 14. In one form, with panels A and C extending from opposite sides of section B, panel A of the sheet is folded over the suture 20, the needle 21 is brought over on to the top of panel A, Fig. 4, and finally panel C, which may bear an identifying label, is folded over to cover the needle lying on panel A. In use, the panel C is first lifted, the needle 21 allowed to slide off panel A, and the suture 20 extracted by pulling on the needle without lifting panel A. The suture and sheet may be further packaged in a sealed outer envelope, and the whole package may be sterilized. In modifications, Figs. 7-9 and 10-12 (not shown), the arrangement of the panels A, B, C is varied. Further, the panel C may be dispensed with and the needle attached to panel A or alternatively a fourth panel may be added to strengthen the package.
