An electronic device includes an electronic connector, a flexible printed circuit and a structure having a stationary printed circuit board. The electronic connector rotates according to a first pivot axis and a second pivot axis with respect to the structure. The flexible printed circuit is fixed to the electronic connector and the stationary printed circuit board, and transfers an electronic current between the electronic connector and the stationary printed circuit board. The flexible printed circuit board comprises a first partly circular bend moving in response to the rotation of the electronic connector according to the first pivot axis and a second partly circular bend moving in response to the rotation of the electronic connector according to the second pivot axis.

A system for preparing a graft vessel for anastomosis includes one or more tools held within a functional package having at least one recess. An anastomosis tool or portion thereof may be held in at least one recess. An anastomosis device is connected to the anastomosis tool. At least one recess is shaped and sized to hold an amount of biocompatible fluid sufficient to immerse the anastomosis device.

Functional package for an anastomosis procedure

A system for preparing a graft vessel for anastomosis includes one or more tools held within a functional package. The package includes a tray and tray top, either or both of which may include one or more features configured to hold the contents of the tray securely therein, and/or may include one or more registration features configured to register one or more items in a desired position in the tray. The package has multiple recesses for holding one or more tools for preparing a graft vessel for anastomosis, and can be sealed and sterilized along with its contents. One of these tools may be a poke-through tool that includes a plurality of membranes within a shell.

System for preparing a craft vessel for anastomosis

A single measurement tool is configured to measure at least one characteristic of a tubular tissue structure during a surgical procedure. The measurement tool may include an indentation defined therein that is placed against a tubular structure such as the aorta to determine whether that tubular structure has a radius larger than or smaller than the radius of curvature of the indentation. The measurement tool may include a number of first recesses for measuring the diameter of a tubular structure. The measurement tool may include at least one second recess for measuring the wall thickness of a tubular structure.

Surgical measurement tool

A system for preparing a graft vessel for anastomosis includes one or more tools held within a functional package. The package has multiple recesses and can be sealed and sterilized along with its contents. The recesses are used to hold one or more tools for preparing a graft vessel for anastomosis. Additionally, the package includes one or more recesses or other features molded into it that allow for storing a graft vessel in a biocompatible fluid such as blood or saline solution, for moving one or more tools relative to one another, or for performing other functions.

System for preparing a graft vessel for anastomosis

A single measurement tool is configured to measure at least two characteristics of a patient's vasculature during a surgical procedure such as a coronary artery bypass graft procedure. The measurement tool includes an indentation defined therein that is placed against a tubular structure such as the aorta to determine whether that tubular structure has a radius larger than or smaller than the radius of curvature of the indentation. The measurement tool may include a number of first recesses for measuring the diameter of a tubular structure. The measurement tool may include at least one second recess for measuring the wall thickness of a tubular structure.
