The Sequential Suture Holder Saves Surgeons Time During Heart Surgery

"At present, from my vision, we have manufactured, patent pending the design, an aluminum, steel and plastic model of the Vijay-Robinson Sequential Suture Holder named also in memory of the late Dr. George Robinson. It is ready to be contracted at a surgical care company for worldwide distribution." -R. Vijay, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Surgical technology is changing at a rapid pace. New surgical instruments are introduced to the medical industry more frequently than ever. For example, companies like GerMedUSA Inc. manufacture a large selection of innovative surgical instruments like the Sequential Suture Holder (TM). They introduce a variety of quality surgical instruments frequently.

This patent pending surgical tool, designed by Dr R. Vijay, M.D., makes surgical procedures much easier for surgeons. The sequential suture holder is designed to easily attach to a surgical drape. It is described as a steel, plastic and aluminum suture holder. It currently has two prototypes.

When the sutures pass through the annulus of the heart valve, they're applied to clamps and placed into the sequential suture holder. These sutures are removed one-by-one in sequential order. Then they are applied to the sewing ring of the artificial heart valve.

How it Works During surgery, these sutures are detached individually, in sequential order and applied to the sewing ring of the artificial heart valve. Then the needles are cut and all the sequential sutures in the holder are lifted up to maneuver the heart valve into the right position. Then without any strings hanging below, the sutures are tied and cut. This makes the procedure a lot easier for surgeons.

The Sequential Suture Holder is an aluminum, steel and plastic model of the Vijay-Robinson Sequential Suture Holder. It was actually named in memory of the late Dr. George Robinson. This innovative patent pending instrument is contracted through GerMedUSA for global distribution.

The Idea behind the Vision R. Vijay, M.D., F.A.C.S. was a colleague and mentor of Dr. George Robinson. He was Chief of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery at the Montefiore Hospital & Medical Center. He was also the Professor of Surgery at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
