ABSTRACT:
A disposable applicator device for applying tubal occlusion clips, particularly clips utilized in mini-laparotomy sterilization surgery. The applicator includes a grasping lever for grasping the hook portion of the clip and a guiding arm for gripping, guiding and forcing the projection portion of the clip. The grasping lever and guiding lever are connected by swivel hinge and a separation restrictor such that the relative motion of the levers is restricted to a predetermined arc within a plane. The applicator is adapted to deliver a tubal occlusion clip into position, force the clip from an open mode to a closed mode about the desired tissue, and then slidably disengage from the clip, leaving the clip installed upon the tissue.
