Abstract: A knotless tissue repair construct. The construct includes an anchor body formed of a soft suture-like material. The construct includes a repair suture having a first end, a second end and a cannulated length portion therebetween, the first end fixedly coupled to the anchor body. The cannulated length is interwoven along and through a first sidewall of the anchor body such that the second end extends proximally from the anchor body proximal end. The construct includes a transfer suture threaded through and along a second sidewall of the anchor body, through and along the repair suture cannulated length and also punched through the repair suture adjacent the cannulated length, defining a repair suture punch.

Abstract: An assembly includes a flexible fixation member, a suture, and a delivery device. The fixation member includes a body with two terminal ends. A suture passes through the flexible fixation member at various points along a length of the body such that portions of the fixation member are slidable relative to the suture and configurable to form a cluster within a surgical site. The delivery device includes a tubular member, an elongated inserter, and a trigger. The elongated inserter is slidably disposed within the tubular member. The inserter has a forked distal end configured to receive a portion of the flexible fixation member and the suture. The trigger is finger-engagable and fixedly coupled to the proximal end of the inserter. It is configured to advance and retract the inserter relative to the tubular member. The trigger includes a retention member for retaining a proximal end portion of the suture.

Abstract: A soft anchor deployment system for tissue repair includes an insertion instrument having a shaft extending up to a distally facing surface. A tip member extends distally from the distal facing surface. A soft anchor is positioned on the tip member such that the tip member is disposed within and along a lumen of the soft anchor. A suture operatively couples to the soft anchor and to a tensioning actuator of the insertion instrument. Tension applied to the suture deploys the soft anchor from a first elongated state to a second expanded state. During deployment of the soft anchor, a distal end of the soft anchor slides along and over the tip member and the soft anchor is compressed against the distally facing surface such that the tip member extends distally from the distal end of the soft anchor.

Abstract: A knotless tissue repair construct is disclosed herein. The construct includes a soft anchor body, with a proximal end, a distal end, and a longitudinal axis extending therebetween. The construct also includes a repair suture fixedly coupled to the anchor body. The construct also includes a transfer suture interwoven repeatedly through and along the anchor body defining a transfer path. Tension on at least one of the repair suture and transfer suture may deploy the anchor body. A transfer suture first end may transfer the repair suture through the anchor body to form a repair loop that may knotless lock the tissue repair construct.

Abstract: Tissue repair systems include suture anchors comprising a distal transfer eyelet. The use of transfer eyelet in various anchor configurations enables diameter reduction of the anchor, as well as enlargement of the driver cannulation. This in turn increases the amount and size of suture loadable into the system.

Abstract: Suture anchor insertion assemblies include needles pre-attached to suture or suture tape, which reside within a housing of an inserter. The suture extends around a suture bridge of a suture anchor having at least one rib extending through the internal volume. An outer surface of the shaft of the inserter includes a groove sized to receive both the rib of the suture anchor and the length of suture while still allowing the suture to slide relative to the inserter.

Abstract: Methods of making an enhanced bioactive PRP implant include supplying a centrifuge container with a collagen-based scaffold pre-inserted onto a moveable filter within the vial. A centrifuge process for creating the PRP implant is followed, resulting in a PRP/collagen implant combination. Other biologics may be added to the container instead of or in addition to the collagen-based scaffold. Additionally, methods of fixing the PRP implant into place at the point of a tear or wound include applying the PRP implant adjacent to or within a meniscal tear, or underneath or on top of a rotator cuff tear. Suture or staples may then be routed either through or over the PRP implant to hold the implant in place.

Abstract: Knotless soft suture constructs include a repair tape having a finger trap. The repair tape is preloaded with a transfer suture through the finger trap. The transfer suture is used to capture an end of the repair tape through itself, forming a cinching suture loop that can be tightened around the repair but not loosened.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an anchor assembly. The anchor assembly includes an anchor defining a cavity and an opening to the cavity; and a headless insertion member configured for arrangement within the anchor cavity, the insertion member including a body having a threaded proximal portion, a non-threaded distal portion, and a cannulation extending a partial length of the insertion member. Other anchor assemblies, anchors, and delivery devices are also disclosed.

Abstract: An offset guide that places a surgical tool through a bone of a surgical joint. The offset guide may hold the surgical joint in a reduced configuration at a first location along the bone; the first location preferred for engaging the bone. The offset guide may engage the bone with a hook that engages two opposing sides of the bone to center the surgical tool through the bone. The offset guide may guide placement of a surgical tool through the bone center at a second location along the bone, the second location offset from the first location. The second location may be a preferable location for receiving the surgical tool therethrough. The surgical tool may include both a drill and an implant insertion tool. The implant insertion tool may place an implant at the second location, while the offset guide holds the surgical joint.
