Heading on Batch Record document for urinary incontinence device.

Clarification request(s) and response
Janet Ratziu: 10:45am Jan 17, 2008: Hi Maureen. Could you give us some more context about the device itself?
Maureen Thomas: 11:24am Jan 17, 2008: Aiguilles Droites Surmoulées Tampographiées - Thanks for your assistance, Janet. As it is a Batch Record document I have limited information. For "tampographiées" I only found "pad-printed" so I am non the wiser. It concerns a Kit used for urinary incontinence for which mesh is used
Maureen Thomas: 4:31pm Jan 17, 2008: "straight needles" - I did wonder about this myself but as the item underneath is "Aiguilles Gauches Surmoulées Tampographiées" I assume it must be "right".
Thanks very much for your help with this phrase.
Best wishes
Maureen
Drmanu49: 4:40pm Jan 17, 2008: I am not sure about the needle's specific curvature. I would go with needle to be used on the right side with the needle passer. The embossing is there to indicate right or left?

Drmanu49: 5:44pm Jan 17, 2008: I have no problem with patting Liz on the back! ;-)
liz askew: 5:49pm Jan 17, 2008: I have to ask, how do we know from the context given that there are any passers?? Sure, you can assume this from researching the term, but is "passers" actually in the original French?? I think Maureen needs a big pat on the back too, for taking such a
liz askew: 5:50pm Jan 17, 2008: task on board! Bye for now.

Specifically, the Monarc system simplifies rotation of the needle passer during insertion and extraction around the inferior aspect of the ischiopubic ramus. The 3-mm–diameter passers are specifically designed for right-side or left-side use. They are attached to fixed handles to create a natural wrist rotation. The sling connectors, meanwhile, facilitate rapid, effortless, and secure mesh placement and fixation.

The Monarc transobturator sling, introduced in Europe in January 2003, has been used successfully in more than 1,000 procedures.

Specifically, the Monarc system simplifies rotation of the needle passer during insertion and extraction around the inferior aspect of the ischiopubic ramus. The 3-mm–diameter passers are specifically designed for right-side or left-side use. They are attached to fixed handles to create a natural wrist rotation. The sling connectors, meanwhile, facilitate rapid, effortless, and secure mesh placement and fixation.

Insert your left index finger into the vaginal incision on the patient’s left side. Holding the right-side Monarc needle, introduce the needle tip perpendicularly through the skin incision.

One last thought,

Could "tampographiées" = embossed??

i.e. with manufacturer's name or size of needle??

Who knows!
