Device for guiding surgical sewing material to a needle
First Claim
1. A device for guiding surgical sewing material to a needle, having a shaft on whose distal end a needle can be secured and whose proximal end is configured as a gripping portion equipped with an open guide channel for the sewing material that is to be guided, wherein the guide channel can be mechanically locked, at least in sections by means of at least one locking element configured in the guide channel, distinguished in that the at least one locking element has two blocking elements that are contiguous with one another and that, at least in sections, lock the guide channel above the sewing material, so that the sewing material can be pressed from above into the guide channel, and distinguished in that that every locking element is configured as a threaded bolt that can be screwed into the gripping portion from the side opposite the guide channel, and in the shaft of this threaded bolt a guiding groove is configured corresponding to the guide channel, such that the shaft can rotate freely on the threaded bolt.
