Systems, devices and methods for delivering an implant

摘要

The present disclosure provides systems, methods, devices, and kits for delivering an implant to an anatomical site in a patient. In some instances, a delivery device for delivering an implant includes a receiver with a through-lumen and a transfer pin for associating with the implant and the lumen. In some embodiments, a method for delivering an implant to an anatomical site in a patient comprises transferring the implant or a portion thereof from one section of a delivery device to another.

主权项

1. A system for delivering a supportive implant to an anatomical site in a patient comprising:
an implant assembly including:
an implant associator including:
a circular ring having a through-aperture defined therein;a first wing projecting substantially radially from the circular ring; anda second wing projecting substantially radially from the circular ring, the first wing and the second wing defining an angle; anda mesh strap or a supportive sling, an end of the mesh strap or the supportive sling being affixed with the implant associator and affixed, at least in part, to the first wing and the second wing; and an insertion device including:
a first section including a receiver located at a distal portion of the first section, the receiver including a through-lumen; anda second section including a transfer pin located at a distal portion of the second section, the transfer pin being configured to associate with the implant assembly by being inserted, at least partially, in the through-aperture of the circular ring, the second section being movable relative to the first section,wherein the lumen is configured to receive the transfer pin and the implant associator when the transfer pin is associated with the implant assembly.
