When an adjustment member coupled to the end effector assembly is displaced from a first position to a second position, the end effector assembly transition from a first undeployed position, in which the first and second tissue engaging arms are disposed a first configuration adapted for insertion into a patient, to a second deployed position, in which the first and second tissue engaging arms are disposed a second configuration adapted to manipulate a tissue of the patient.
A repair structure apparatus for cardiac surgery is disclosed. The repair structure apparatus includes a fluid reservoir and a platform comprising a porous surface in communication with the fluid reservoir, with a port in communication with the porous surface. The apparatus includes a cutting template configured to align with the platform and a slicing sled configured to engage the platform. A cutting template for constructing a repair structure for cardiac surgery is further disclosed. The cutting template includes a frame having at least one arcuate lobe; and at least one sharpened edge. A device for constructing a repair structure for cardiac surgery is also disclosed, wherein the device includes a porous platform. A repair structure for cardiac surgery is disclosed. The repair structure includes a tissue sheet, wherein the tissue sheet is folded along a free edge of the tissue sheet.
A minimally invasive occlusion device is disclosed. The minimally invasive occlusion device includes a first link having a first end and a second end, a second link having a first end and a second end; the first end of the second link connected to the first end of the first link by a compensating coupler. Another minimally invasive occlusion device may include a delivery frame or a shaft having an articulating cradle coupled to the shaft. A method of occluding tissue is also disclosed. The method of occluding tissue includes placing a first link of an occlusion device laterally at a base of tissue, placing a second link of an occlusion device on an opposing side of the base of tissue, substantially parallel with the first link, and securing the first link and the second link to fully occlude the base of tissue.

A device for vessel harvesting is disclosed. The device for vessel harvesting includes a distal housing, a dissector coupled to the distal housing, a drive element coupled to the dissector, and an actuator coupled to the drive element. The device for vessel harvesting may also include a rotatable dissector, a shaft coupled to the distal housing having a first articulation joint movable within a first plane, and a second articulation joint movable within a second plane, which is substantially perpendicular to the first plane, a barrel chain drive element coupled to the rotatable dissector, and an actuator coupled to the drive element. The device for vessel harvesting may also include a member slidably engaged to the distal tip.
A minimally invasive VAD installation system includes a curved hook having another hook at its distal end. The installation system also has a valve insertion tool having a gimbaled set of clamp jaws configured for releasably holding the inflow tube of a VAD pump. The installation system further has a pushing tool having a distal opening configured to pass over a tube.
