The present invention is directed to a direct dispensing surgical suture label in a one-piece label. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the label is divided into a back portion and five flaps by a folded line.

The rear part is rectangular. There is a strand flap on one side of the long wall at the rear. On the short side of the back, two flaps are attached by a line folded inside and outside. Both flaps include needle retention slits. On the rear part opposite the seal cover flap, the label cover flap and the needle protection flap are attached to the back by a folded line. Both the label cover flap and the needle protection flap have rounded corners. The needle protection flap is cut diagonally near the label cover flap. Thus, a notch is formed between the needle protection flap and the label cover flap. This notch helps to lift the needle protection flap.

The seal cover flap is superimposed on the back. Then both flaps overlap on the seal cover flaps. Surgical sutures are contained between the back portion and the thread cover flap. The remainder of the surgical suture is located on and in the needle holding slits. The needle holding slits in the other flap are used to contain the tip of the needle. The label cover flap and the needle protection flap are folded over both flaps. When the needle protection flap is lifted, the end of the suture in the needle retention slits is taken directly from the label.

In another embodiment, the surgical suture label described above may have a locking slit on the folded gold between the outer edge of the label cover flap and the back and seal cover flaps. The label cover flap can be locked against the inner edge of the seal cover flap.

In another embodiment, a suture package was found containing the surgical suture label described above. The suture package consists of an envelope (envelope_) with notches and cutout guides that are cut out. The cutout guide starts from the cutout groove. In an embodiment the cutout guide ends in folded gold parallel to the outer edge of the shell. The depth of the groove The length of the angle guide and the length and adjacency of the folded gold with respect to the outer edge of the sheath are as long as the cut endothelial exposes the needle protection flap of the label, and the end of the suture is removed from the label when lifting the needle protection flap. As long as it is taken out directly, the value is flexible.

The aforementioned direct surgical suture label is enclosed in an envelope. When the envelope is opened along the cut angle guideline, the needle protection flap is exposed. When the needle protection flap is lifted, the end of the surgical suture is removed directly from the label.

Yet another embodiment is a double envelope suture package consisting of a peeled envelope including the sealed envelope described above as an endothelial and a direct surgical suture label is placed within the endothelium.

The present invention relates to a suture label that allows for direct processing of the suture and also relates to a tearable suture envelope that can be cut from a cutout across the face of the envelope to expose the label. Sutures are strands of suitable material to suture and are used for sutures or other surgical procedures, with or without a needle.

It is important to limit the number of outpatient packages associated with the use of the product in the surgical clinical auditorium to provide convenience for the user and to prevent the risk of missealing this material in the patient. It is often calculated to allow each item to be described and removed from the surgical field. Considering the entry of such substances into the patient in an accident during a surgical operation, it is clearly necessary to minimize this risk.

It is essential that the package containing the surgical needle protects the suture from contact with the suture or the tip of the needle, which can partially cut the package. Sharp needle tips or corners also need to be protected to maintain their sharpness.

In general, surgical sutures according to the prior art are packaged in a peelable sheath of plastic or of known days. Within the skin that can be peeled off, sterile endothelium or pouches are included. Sutures are formed of coils and loops of various shapes contained within various retainers, labels, or reels in the endothelium. Sutures are usually prepared by the surgeon peeling the skin and exposing the endothelium with sterilizing forceps or over the sterilization barrier and moving it into the sterilization area of the operating room. The endothelium is open when used.

The endothelial and label of the present invention have many advantages over the prior art. The label is exposed after cutting off the endothelium of the present invention. The label can be used for direct processing without removing it from the endothelium. Access to the suture from the label is achieved by a needle protection flap which is lifted after cutting of the endothelium.

Since the endothelium and label remain together after opening, the packaging material at the surgical site or other surgical procedures is reduced. Moreover, in addition to direct access to the suture with or without a needle, the suture is intended for immediate use when held by a needle holder or hand within the label and endothelium. This is necessary for operating room and surgical procedure techniques since the time taken to remove the suture from the label for actual use as a suture is reduced. Moreover, in most surgical or surgical procedures, the materials used for the surgical or surgical procedure are calculated after the surgical or surgical procedure. The label and the endothelium of the present invention provide a package that can be easily identified and counted. Finally, the size of the needle and the shape of the suture can be printed on the endothelium. This allows the size and shape of the suture to be readily discernible in surgical procedures where more than one is used. The possibility of mixing size and shape is also reduced since the suture is taken directly from the label in the endothelium.

The suture label is one piece in the endothelium and remains intact. In an embodiment, the endothelial containing and protecting the sutures in the label may be notched and snapped around the label to begin at the groove and cut at an appropriate angle without breaking the endothelial into one or more pieces. The needle protection flap of the label is exposed during the cutting operation. The needle protection flap is lifted by the hand or the needle holder to expose the needle in the correct position. The needle is picked up by a hand or needle holder and slowly and calmly pulled out of the suture. The invention, and its several advantages, are made clear by describing the following embodiments in detail.

Five or six panel covers are designed to protect the thread and the endothelium from needle damage. The notches and slits are located between the label cover flap and the needle protection flap and at both flaps, respectively. The size and direction of the notches and slits are provided to support the needle in the proper direction and to pick and take the needle out with the needle holder.

The label is preferably made from about 90 pounds of sterile paper that can withstand alcoholic solution, heat, steam, gas or radiation sterilization without adverse effects. The paper can be coated with about 1/2 mil of polyethylene to be heat sealed. Such papers are commercialized and readily available. If necessary, it is sealed by a heat die or by heat generated internally by an ultrasonic device.

An important feature of the present invention is that it has a tearable foil endothelium that can be cut from the cut notch across the surface to expose the label, whereby a portion of the label can be lifted to pull out the suture directly, ie usually with a needle Sutures can be removed from the label while remaining within the label's endothelium. It should be noted that the cut notch is in such a position that the label is held within the foil endothelium by the uncut edge. This, as a whole label and as a packaging combination, does not clutter the operating room as it remains in one piece, even after being cut.

Both the endothelial and sutures are respectively protected from the sharp portion of the needle by the thread cover flap and the needle protection flap.

A suture packed in FIG. 10 is shown. The suture is sealed in the endothelium 25 with the cut notch 21, which is indicated in FIG. 2. The endothelium is again sealed in the peelable shell 31 of FIG. 1.

The lining is 25 pounds of luster and is a bleached sealable layer that is convenient to make from moisture resistant materials such as pouch paper coated with about 1/2 mil polyethylene on a metal foil such as about 1 mil aluminum foil coated with less than 1 mil polyethylene. . Such materials must be moisture resistant to protect synthetic absorbent sutures from hydrophobic degradation, such as those made of polyglycolic acid. The same material is used to package the joist sutures that are packaged with a predetermined amount of alcohol solution to maintain plasticity. Sutures with low moisture content are also packaged with the same material and used to maintain durability and packaging specifications.

Looking at the figure, the outer shell 31 is peeled off. With the cut-out notch 21 as the starting point, the user cuts the piece along the cut line 23 in the longitudinal direction to the stop line 24, and at this time, the endothelial 25 is opened without removing the cut portion 26. This operation exposes the needle protection flap 20 of FIG. This operation is enhanced by the size and shape of the needle protection flap 20 associated with the endothelium. The user may mark the tear arrow on the tear line 23 using the packaging as appropriate.

FIG. 2 shows the endothelium maintained in a ready-to-use position with an abandoned peelable skin. 3 shows that the needle protection flap 20 can be lifted after the endothelial 25 is cut away. The cut away portion 26 does not fall off the endothelium. 4 shows the needle 30 picked up by the opened needle protection flap 20 and the needle holder 27. 4 shows the portion of the label cover flap 91 where the needle protection flap 20 is lifted so that the needle 30 is exposed. The needle retention slits 15 in the lateral flaps 14 allow access to the needles by the needle holders 27. FIG. 5 shows the suture taken out of the label package shown in FIG. By design features, the threaded yarn label is secured within the open portion of the endothelium 25 and the overall packaging is maintained. Thus, no material or object other than the needle and thread is added to the surgical area. Therefore, the risks associated with it are minimized and work is simplified.

6 shows a suture label cut from an acidic cell coated with polyethylene for heat sealing.

As shown in FIG. 6, the suture cover is composed of a seal cover flap 3, a label cover flap 1 and a needle protection flap 20, respectively attached by a back portion 2 and folded gold 10, 11, respectively. It is composed. The side flap 14 is attached to the back side 2 by gold 28. The needle protection flap 20 is separated from the label cover flap 91 by the notch 5 and attached to the rear face 2 by the gold 11. The needle protection flap 20 has rounded corners. The needle retaining slits 15 can accommodate needles of any size and shape in the exact direction and in the position between the thread cover flap 30 and the side flap 14. Both side flaps include a needle retention slitting 15. The needle tip is lodged in the needle holding slits 15 to be taken out directly by the hand or the needle holder.

7 shows that the seal cover flap is folded between the rear portion 2 and the inner gold 28.

FIG. 8 shows the side flaps 14 superimposed on the seal cover flap 3 shown in FIG. The end of the seal 29 also indicates that it is in the proper position after inserting the seal into the label. The shape of the thread can be any loop or coil that allows the thread to be pulled out without tangling. The relationship to the rest of the coil at the needle tip of the thread is not a big problem.

9 shows that the tip of the needle 20 holds the proper direction in the needle holding slits 15.

10 shows the relationship to the label cover flap 1 and the side flap 14 of the needle protection flap 20. Moreover, FIG. 10 shows that the needle protection flap 20 is folded over the needle to prevent endothelial damage from the needle tip. The needle protection flap 20 also helps to keep the needle properly in the label during processing or delivery.
