IMPLANTABLE FASTENER Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A61B5/00 A61B5/215 A61B5/03 A61B5/20 A61M5/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: implantable fastener comprises a proximal stabilizing member extending from the proximal end to the distal end, a distal stabilizing member extending from the proximal end to the distal end, a bridge extending from the distal end of the proximal stabilizing member to the proximal end of the distal stabilizing member and a positioning arm extending from the proximal end of the distal stabilizing member. The proximal and distal stabilizing members have a compressed configuration and are configured for transition to a deployed configuration. The deployment system for fastener transdermal delivery and implantation comprises an input device cannula, a pusher and a sheath. The method for deployment system application comprises the following steps: cannula moving towards the target site, fastener positioning in the target region, application of a controlled force to release the first stabilizing member from the compressed state, application of a controlled force to release the second stabilizing member from the compressed state, and cannula extraction. The method for fastener manufacture consists of: material placement on the core, coating of the core with a core coating and heat treatment of the said material to form the said fastener. The core for fastener manufacture comprises the first disc, the second disc and a shaft disposed between the first and the second discs. The first disc has a surface convex towards the second disc, the second disc has a surface convex towards the first disc, each disc has a groove extending from the shaft.

EFFECT: possibility to install the fastener in the target location of the patient's body by application of a controlled force, a possibility of implantation into a living animal or human body to control various physiological states.
