Abstract

See full text

A surgical clip applier includes a housing, a pair of handles pivotably connected to opposite sides of the housing, a channel assembly extending from the housing and a jaw assembly. A pusher bar assembly is provided to feed clips from a series of clips to the jaw mechanism under the influence of a spring, and a damping mechanism is provided to generate a force on the pusher member to counteract the spring force and decelerate the distal advancement of the pusher member as a clip is fed to the jaw assembly.
