A compression and ligation device includes a pair of jaws including one or more Doppler chips oriented to send and receive Doppler signals across the jaws, to assist a practitioner in determining whether or not a uterine artery is between the jaws. A suture leader with an attached suture can be pushed through a channel on one of the jaws, through tissue behind the uterine artery, into another channel on the other jaw, and proximally out the device so that the practitioner can ligate the artery and effect hemostasis.
L'invention concerne un dispositif de compression et de ligature comprenant une paire de mâchoires munies d'au moins une puce Doppler orientée pour envoyer et recevoir des signaux Doppler à travers les mâchoires, de manière à aider un praticien à déterminer, si une artère utérine se trouve entre les mâchoires. Une amorce de suture pourvue d'une suture attachée peut être poussée à travers un canal sur une des mâchoires, à travers le tissu derrière l'artère utérine, dans un autre canal sur l'autre mâchoire, et au niveau proximal hors du dispositif, de façon que le praticien peut ligaturer l'artère et provoquer une hémostase.
