Title:
SUTURING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/038040
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a suturing device that can easily and accurately form a knot by means of mechanical action that is based on a simple operation. The present invention includes: a long needle 30 that holds a first string-shaped member L1 and that is provided so as to be capable of reciprocal movement in a prescribed direction and of rotating around the direction of the reciprocal movement; and a shuttle 26 that has a holding part 62, which holds a second string-shaped member L2 and can rotate around the axis of the needle 30, and that passes the holding part 62 in a relative manner through a loop LP that is formed as a result of the first string-shaped member L1 crossing the needle 30 when the needle 30 is rotated. Because the shuttle 26 can pass the holding part 62 in a relative manner through the loop LP that is formed by the crossing of the needle 30, the loop LP and the second string-shaped member L2 that is held by the holding part 62 are made to cross each other, and, as a result, the present invention can easily and accurately form a knot by means of mechanical action that is based on a simple operation.
