20130310856 | Suture Passer Guides and Related Kits and Methods - This disclosure relates to suture passer guides and related kits and methods. In certain aspects, a suture passer guide includes an elongate member and a suture positioning member that can be radially extended from a distal end region of the elongate member and rotated relative to the elongate member such that the suture positioning member can reposition a suture from a first side area of the elongate member to a second side area of the elongate member. | 11-21-2013 |
20130231589 | Cervical Sizing Devices and Related Kits and Methods - This disclosure relates to cervical sizing devices and related kits and methods. In some aspects, a cervical sizing device includes an elongate arm and a member positioned at a distal end region of the elongate arm. The cervical sizing device can be used to determine an approximate size of a cervix when the member is brought into contact with an outer surface of the cervix. | 09-05-2013 |
20130218175 | Suture Passers and Related Methods - A suture passer includes an elongate tube defining a central lumen and having a beveled distal end region and a grasping member comprising a first elongate member and a first jaw extending distally from the first elongate member. The grasping member is sized to be disposed within the elongate tube and is capable of being extended from the elongate tube in a manner such that the first elongate member and the first jaw are disposed at least partially distal to the beveled distal end region of the elongate tube. The grasping member is further capable of being retracted within the elongate tube in a manner such that the first elongate member is located substantially within the central lumen of the elongate tube and the first jaw substantially covers an opening of the beveled distal end region of the elongate tube. | 08-22-2013 |
20130165956 | Suture Passer Guides and Related Kits and Methods - A suture passer guide that includes an elongate member having a longitudinal axis and defining a first proximal opening and a first distal opening. The first proximal and distal openings are substantially aligned with one another such that a suture passer can be extended through the first proximal and distal openings at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the elongate member. The suture passer guide can be configured to be passed through a central lumen of an endoscopic port. | 06-27-2013 |
20130079597 | Endoscopic Ports and Related Kits and Methods - An endoscopic port that includes an elongate cannula defining a central lumen that extends substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the cannula and is sized to receive at least one endoscopic instrument therein. The cannula further defines a first opening that extends through a sidewall of the cannula at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the cannula. The first opening is sized to receive a suture passer. | 03-28-2013 |
20120109147 | Uterine Manipulators and Related Components and Methods - A colpotomizer cup includes a cup body and one or more tenaculum engagement features. The cup body is configured to receive a cervix. The one or more tenaculum engagement features are adapted to connect the colpotomizer cup to a tenaculum such that the colpotomizer cup can be delivered to a cervix using the tenaculum. The colpotomizer cup can be configured to accept and secure the base of a uterine manipulator tip. | 05-03-2012 |
20120109146 | Uterine Manipulators and Related Components and Methods - A colpotomizer cup includes a cup body and a sleeve. The cup body is configured to receive a cervix. The sleeve is connected to the cup body and includes a locking member for locking the colpotomizer cup in a predetermined position along a length of the uterine manipulator handle. | 05-03-2012 |
20120109014 | Cervical Sizing Devices and Related Kits and Methods - This disclosure relates to cervical sizing devices and related kits and methods. In some aspects, a cervical sizing device includes an elongate arm and a member positioned at a distal end region of the elongate arm. The cervical sizing device can be used to determine an approximate size of a cervix when the member is brought into contact with an outer surface of the cervix. | 05-03-2012 |
20100305578 | Uterine Manipulators and Related Components and Methods - A uterine manipulator tip includes a finger and an expandable member. The finger is configured to be confined within a cervix. The expandable member is carried by the finger and is configured to engage a cervical canal between an internal cervical os and an external cervical os of the cervix. | 12-02-2010 |
20100106163 | Uterine Manipulator Assemblies and Related Components and Methods - A uterine manipulator includes an elongate shaft and a tip hub. The elongate shaft has a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end is configured to be inserted into a vagina. The tip hub is disposed at the distal end and is configured to releasably receive and support a tip mount for engaging a uterus. The elongate shaft includes one or more channels extending between the distal and proximal ends. The channels are configured to releasably receive catheter tubing. | 04-29-2010 |
