Hemostatic clips, clip appliers, and applications thereof, for ligating bodily organs or tissues in a subject. The clip and clip appliers are configured to structurally conform to various thicknesses of bodily organs or tissues. In exemplary embodiments, the hemostatic clip includes pivotally linked clip arm members, wherein at least one has an outer rigid clip arm member, and an inner clip arm member being resilient and elastic. The clip includes a locking mechanism for locking together the clip arms. The hemostatic clip shifts from a non-stressed fully opened configuration to a stressed locked configuration with compressive forces being applied to a bodily organ or tissue. Inner resilient clip arm member of the clip facilitates structural conformity to various thicknesses of bodily organs or tissues, and provides an efficient, long lasting, and safe tissue ligation. |
