摘要:
Suture anchoring devices include retention features that will hold the anchoring devices in place and resist displacement when tension is applied to an attached suture in a direction opposite direction of placement. The anchors may be deployed by a needle shaft in a placement direction (which may be straight, curved, or a combination of both), and the needle shaft may have a sharpened or a blunt tip depending on the nature of the anchor. The anchors will find use when a distal end of the suture attached to the anchor is to be left in place in solid tissue so that it cannot be tied off.
