Abstract: An implant delivery system including a fixation member delivery system including an elongate shaft, first and second rails, a plurality of fixation members with each fixation member slidably disposed on the first and second rails and an actuation assembly. The actuation assembly includes a first elongate member including a first plurality of engagement members disposed along the first elongate member with a distal end region of each engagement member in engagement with one of the fixation members, a second elongate member including a second plurality of engagement members disposed along the second elongate member with a distal end region of each engagement member in engagement with one of the fixation members. Additionally, cyclical actuation of the actuation assembly is configured to incrementally move the fixation members distally along the first and second rails to deploy each of the plurality of fixation members in sequence.

Abstract: A medical device configured to form one or more holes within a bone of a patient may include a handle assembly including a housing, a lever rotatably coupled to the housing, and a sheath extending distally from the housing, the handle assembly including a spring biasing the lever toward an initial or intermediate position; and a bone punch including an elongate shaft, a head at a proximal end of the elongate shaft, and a piercing tip at a distal end of the elongate shaft configured to be driven into the bone. The elongate shaft may be slidably disposed within the sheath in a first position when the lever is in the initial or intermediate position. Translation of the bone punch distally within the sheath from the first position to a second position may cause a distal end of the lever to rotate away from the housing to an extended position.

Abstract: A tendon/ligament repair implant for treatment of tears or lesions of tendons and ligaments, including capsular reconstruction, and compositions for delivering calcium and/or phosphate ions in combination with a collagen solution that can be placed between soft tissue and bone to facilitate healing of the soft tissue-bone interface are provided. The implant may incorporate features of rapid deployment and fixation by arthroscopic means that complement current procedures; tensile properties that result in desired sharing of anatomical load between the implant and native tendon during rehabilitation, or, in situations where the native tissue cannot be repaired tensile properties that provide for substitution of the native tissue selected porosity and longitudinal pathways for tissue in-growth; and may include an at least partially bioabsorbable construction to provide transfer of additional load to new tendon-like tissue and native tendon over time.

Abstract: In one general aspect, a cuff for attachment to a heart includes an attachment component configured to engage a blood pump to attach the cuff to the blood pump and a sewing ring for attachment to the heart. The sewing ring is coupled to the attachment component, and the attachment component and the sewing ring each define a central opening configured to admit an inflow cannula of a blood pump. The sewing ring comprises a member that provides rigidity to flatten a portion of a myocardium of the heart when the cuff is attached to the heart.
