Suturing Device
A suturing device is adapted for sewing two tubular objects together, and includes a suturing aid rod, a plurality of sewing subunits, and two pushing subunits. The suturing aid rod has two carrying portions that are opposite to each other in a first direction. Each of the sewing subunits includes a suture thread, and two suture needles that are respectively connected to two opposite ends of the suture thread. Each of the pushing subunits is slidable relative to a respective one of the carrying portions between an initial position and a puncture position. When the pushing subunits are in the puncture position, one of the suture needles of each of the sewing subunits is adapted to puncture one of the tubular objects, and the other one of the suture needles of each of the sewing subunits is adapted to puncture the other one of the tubular objects.
APPARATUS FOR ENDOSCOPIC PROCEDURES
A surgical device includes a jaw assembly defining a first longitudinal axis and including a first jaw and a second jaw moveable relative to the first jaw; an elongated body defining a second longitudinal axis and coupled to a proximal end of the jaw assembly, wherein the jaw assembly is configured to articulate about an articulation axis transverse to the second longitudinal axis relative to the elongated body; and a handle assembly coupled to a proximal end of the elongated body and including at least one motor mechanically coupled to the jaw assembly and a control assembly including a first control button and a second control button, wherein actuation of the first control button moves the second jaw in approximation relative to the first jaw and actuating the second control button moves the second jaw away from the first jaw, and actuating the first and second control buttons moves the jaw assembly to a centered position in which the first and second longitudinal axes are substantially aligned, the handle assembly further includes an illumination member configured to output a light pattern indicative of a status of the surgical instrument.
