Abstract: Devices and methods for minimally invasive suturing are disclosed. An illustrative device includes a housing defining an arced needle track therein, the arced needle track having a first end and a second end separated by a gap in the housing configured to receive a tissue segment to be sutured, the arced needle track being configured to receive an arced needle therein. The device further includes a needle drive configured to drive the arced needle along the arced needle track in a first rotational direction, the needle drive being configured to releasably engage the arced needle and advance the arced needle along the arced needle track in the first rotational direction.

Abstract: Devices and methods for minimally invasive suturing are disclosed. An illustrative device includes a housing defining an arced needle track therein having a first end and a second end separated by a gap defined in the housing to receive tissue to be sutured. The arced needle track is configured to receive an arced needle therein. The housing further defines an arced guide track therein to receive a guide. The device further includes a guide slidably disposed in the arced guide track displaceable between a first position along the guide track and a second position along the guide track. The guide includes a pawl to releasably engage the arced needle. The device further includes a filament operably coupled to the guide. The filament traverses a pathway from a proximal end of the housing toward a distal end of the housing.

Abstract: In accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure, a tissue extraction device may include a bag having an interior and a plurality of cutters elements extending along an interior surface of the bag. The cutters can be offset to facilitate collapsing of the bag prior to introducing the bag into a patient.

Abstract: Devices and methods for minimally invasive suturing are disclosed. One suturing device for minimally invasive suturing includes a proximal section a distal end, and an intermediate region therebetween. The device includes a suture head assembly having a suturing needle with a pointed end and a second end. The suturing needle is capable of rotating about an axis approximately perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the device, wherein the pointed end of the suturing needle is positioned within the suture head assembly prior to deployment of guides that are adapted and configured to guide the needle around a circular path when advanced by a drive mechanism having a needle driver for engaging and rotating the suturing needle.

Abstract: An adjustable mouse includes a base and a thumb adjustment assembly coupled to the base. The thumb adjustment assembly is configured to move a thumb rest portion between a retracted position and an extended position. The adjustable mouse further may include a palm rest portion hingedly attached to the base by a hinge adjacent an outer edge of the base. The palm rest portion may have several fingers configured to expand in vertical and lateral directions. Embodiments of the adjustable mouse are further disclosed.
