  • Publication number: 20260083450
    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.

  • Patent number: 12349895
    Abstract: Various systems and devices for knotless anchor insertion and methods of knotless anchor insertion are provided. 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.

  • Patent number: 12070196
    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.
