Patent

CA 2146222

Suture dispensers for retaining armed sutures are disclosed. A dispenser for sutures is disclosed that includes a first and second rigid and substantially flat panel, each comprising a central opening and an edge. A needle park is disposed adjacent the central opening of one of the first and second panels. The panel edges cooperate to retain the first panel against the second panel to form a dispenser of substantially two dimensional character. The disclosed dispensers are thin and thus require less storage and shipping space. Methods of loading dispensers are also disclosed. By winding the suture material in a flat spiral around a set of winding pins between the two panels, the disclosed dispensers can be easily and accurately filled, yet the resulting coiled suture can be withdrawn via the central openings without twisting or kinking the suture material.
