Abstract

A plurality of surgical fasteners (10) includes a first-to-be-applied fastener (12), at least one next-to-be-applied fastener (14) and a last-to-be-applied fastener (16). At least one of the fastenersis visibly and recognizably different than the other surgical fasteners (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to surgical fasteners, such as for use in staple devices or other fastener applying devices, and more particularly to surgical fasteners that are fastened after the fastener applying device reaches final fastening An indication is provided when a fastener (or multiple fasteners) is used, or any other indication of the quantity of fasteners. Background technique [0002] Some surgical procedures involve delivering a series of clamps, such as staples, staples, or sutures, to a surgical site within a patient. For example, hernia repair typically involves a laparoscopic procedure that uses a surgical staple device to deliver a series of clamps or staples to secure the hernia mesh in place. [0003] However, when the nailing device runs out of fasteners during processing, the web can deviate from the correct orientation in an unpredictable manner. The mesh may collapse or fall into an unmanageable position and may c...
