Paragraph Number

181

Rotation of the puller 1004 in direction 1070 moves the external threads 1032 into the carriage 1002 by engagement with the internal threads 1018 of the carriage 1002. As the threads 1032, 1018 engage, this translates and moves the carriage 1002 proximally towards the puller 1004 in direction 1072. The translation of the carriage 1002 creates a translation force in direction 1072 which applies tension to the one or more sutures 1034.
