After placing the suture using standard continuous or
interrupted technique load an additional clip and pass
the loaded LAPRA-TY Suture Applier through the trocar.
Position the clip by sliding it down the suture until it makes
contact with the tissue. NOTE: Excessive tension may
cause clip slippage.
Close the applier jaws by squeezing the handle of the
applier until the clip is visibly locked. Surgeon should
verify closure and security.
