Abstract
A suturing device includes a cannula, a needle pusher, a shuttle, a primer, a spring, and a button. The cannula includes a needle compartment defining a needle passage terminating in a distal opening. The needle pusher is provided in the cannula. The shuttle connects with the needle pusher. Movement of the shuttle results in movement of the needle pusher. The spring is positioned between and connected with the primer and the shuttle. Movement of the primer from an extended position toward a depressed position compresses the spring to exert a biasing force on the shuttle in an advance direction. Movement of the primer from the depressed position toward the extended position results in the spring pulling the shuttle in a retract direction. The spring biases the shuttle in the advance direction after the button is depressed, which pushes the needle pusher in the advance direction.
