  • Publication number: 20240122592
    Abstract: Various exemplary systems and devices for knotless anchor insertion and methods of knotless anchor insertion are provided. In general, an inserter tool is configured for knotless anchor insertion in a soft tissue repair surgical procedure. The inserter tool is configured to insert an anchor into a bone of a patient to secure a soft tissue relative to the bone. A suture coupled to the soft tissue is secured relative to the bone by being trapped between an exterior surface of the anchor and a bone surface defining a hole in the bone in which the anchor is positioned.

  • Publication number: 20240000445
    Abstract: A suture construct includes a single filament of suture forming two cinchable loops from separate finger trap arrangements, with a fixed-length spanning portion extending between fixed portions of the two finger traps. A tail of the suture extends from each finger trap and is slidably disposed therein to cinch the respective loop. The construct can include an anchor slidably coupled to each of the first and second loops. An inserter for the construct includes first and second insertion devices, each having a proximal handle and distal insertion shaft. The two handles couple together to dispose the insertion shafts alongside each other, with a first shaft extending through the second handle shaft and beyond the second shaft. The first handle is coupled proximal to the second such that the first device can be decoupled from the second by removing it proximally, which withdraws the first shaft from the second handle.

  • Publication number: 20220338857
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for securing tissue to bone. A suture anchor system can include an inserter tool having a lumen and an inserter shaft with an anchor receiving portion that is proximal to a distal extension. The anchor receiving portion can have a drive feature and the distal extension can have a diameter less than the anchor receiving portion. An anchor can be disposed on the anchor receiving portion of the inserter tool, and can have a driven feature disposed in a lumen configured to engage the drive member of the anchor receiving portion and a bone-engaging feature disposed on an external surface. A suture seating member can be removably disposed on the distal extension, can be rotatable independent of the anchor, and can have a lumen with an opening on a distal end, where the distal end of the suture seating member has a suture seating surface.

  • Publication number: 20220160220
    Abstract: In general, arthroscopic medical implements and assemblies and methods of operating arthroscopic medical implements and assemblies are provided. Devices, systems, and methods are described herein in connection with accessing a surgical site using an arthroscopic medical implement. In an exemplary implementation, an optical sensor of the arthroscopic medical implement can gather and output image data, and an inertial sensor of the arthroscopic medical implement can gather and output orientation data. The orientation data can be used to modify the gathered optical image to maintain a display of the gathered optical image in a predetermined desired orientation before, during, and after any rotation of the arthroscopic medical implement. The arthroscopic medical implement can also include at least one sensor configured to gather and output pressure and/or temperature.
