Abstract
Suturing apparatuses can be configured to suture biological tissue, such as an anatomical valve. The suturing apparatuses can include a suturing device having an elongate shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, one or more tissue grasping arms, and a handle with actuators. The suturing device can further include at least two needles. One of the tissue grasping arms can have at least two suture mounts each loaded with a suture portion. The suture portions on the suture mounts can form a single suture strand. Methods for suturing bodily tissue may be performed with the suturing apparatuses. The tissue grasping arms can grasp tissue therebetween and at least two needles can be deployed toward the suture mounts, engage the suture portions, and be retracted through the tissue. A knot can be tied on the ends of the suture strand retrieved by the needles.
