Devices, systems, and methods for suturing of body lumens allow the suturing of vascular puncture sites located at the distal end of a percutaneous tissue tract. An elongated articulated foot near a distal end of a shaft is inserted through the penetration and actuated so that the foot extends along the lumenal axis. The foot carries suturing attachment cuffs, and needles are advanced from the shaft through the vessel wall outside of the penetration and into engagement with the needle cuffs after the foot has been drawn proximally up against the endothelial surface of the blood vessel. The cross-section of the shaft within the tissue tract can be minimized by laterally deflecting the needles as they leave the shaft, while tapered depressions within the foot can guide the advancing needles into engagement with the cuffs. The cuffs lockingly engage the needles and can be withdrawn proximally along the needle paths and through the tissue tract so as to form a loop of suture across the puncture. The articulating foot may be realigned with the shaft and withdrawn proximally through the tissue tract without dilating the tissue tract.
1. A suturing device for suturing an incision, the suturing device comprising:a first penetrator configured to form a first penetration about a periphery of the incision, the first penetrator having a pre-tied knot disposed thereabout; and a second penetrator configured to form a second penetration
1. A suturing device for suturing an incision, the suturing device comprising:a first penetrator configured to form a first penetration about a periphery of the incision, the first penetrator having a pre-tied knot disposed thereabout; and a second penetrator configured to form a second penetration about the periphery of the incision, the second penetrator including suture disposed thereon such that during retraction of the first penetrator from the first penetration and the second penetrator from the second penetration, the first penetrator draws the suture through the first penetration via a link between the first penetrator and the suture such that the suture advances the pre-tied knot to suture the incision. 2. A suturing device as recited in claim 1, further comprising a foot disposed at a distal end of the suturing device, the foot having a first cuff and a second cuff connected to the first cuff via the link, the first cuff and the second cuff being configured to receive the first penetrator and the second penetrator respectively upon penetration by the first penetrator and the second penetrator about the periphery of the incision.3. A suturing device as recited in claim 2, wherein the foot is a single member having the first cuff is on a first side of the suturing device opposite the second cuff, and the second cuff is on a second side of the suturing device.4. A suturing device as recited in claim 2, wherein the second penetrator includes a penetrator tip disposed at a distal end of the second penetrator wherein the penetrator tip includes a mating surface disposed about a periphery of the penetrator tip.5. A suturing device as recited in claim 4, wherein the second cuff includes tabs disposed about a circumference of the second cuff configured to engage the mating surface of the penetrator tip when the second cuff receives the penetrator tip.6. The suturing device of claim 2, wherein the second cuff is pushed through the foot after the second cuff receives the second penetrator.7. A suturing device as recited in claim 1, wherein the link is made from polypropylene.8. A suturing device as recited in claim 1, wherein the link is made from polytetrafluoroethylene.9. A suturing device as recited in claim 1, wherein the link is made from expanded polytetrafluoroethylene.10. A suturing device as recited in claim 1, wherein the first penetrator further includes a loop wherein the loop engages with a end of the link after formation of the first penetration such that during retraction of the first penetrator and second penetrator from the first penetration and the second penetration, the loop pulls the link through the first penetration.11. A vessel suturing device comprising:a substantially rigid shaft; a single foot movably connected to a distal region of the shaft, the foot movable from a non-deployed position aligned with the shaft to a deployed position at a non-perpendicular angle with respect to the shaft; and a flexible member extending distally from the distal region from of the shaft. 12. The vessel suturing device of claim 11, wherein the non-perpendicular angle is about 40 degrees to about 50 degrees.13. The vessel suturing device of claim 11, further comprising a first penetrator on an anterior side of the shaft and a second penetrator on a posterior side of the shaft.14. The vessel suturing device of claim 13, wherein the first penetrator is configured to form a first penetration about a periphery of an incision in a tissue wall, the first penetrator having a pre-tied knot disposed thereabout; and wherein the second penetrator is configured to form a second penetration about the periphery of the incision, the second penetrator including suture disposed thereon such that during retraction of the first penetrator from the first penetration and the second penetrator from the second penetration, the first penetrator draws the suture through the first penetration via a link between the first penetrator and the suture such that the suture advances the pre-tied knot to suture the incision.15. The suturing device of claim 14, wherein the foot has a first cuff and a second cuff connected to the first cuff via the link, the fist cuff and the second cuff being configured to receive the first penetrator and the second penetrator respectively upon penetration by the first penetrator and the second penetrator about the periphery of the incision.16. The suturing device of claim 15, wherein the second cuff is pushed through the foot after the second cuff receives the second penetrator.17. The vessel suturing device of claim 13, wherein the first penetrator is longer than the second penetrator.18. A suturing device for suturing an incision, the suturing device comprising:a shaft; a first penetrator carried by the shaft, the first penetrator configured to form a first penetration about a periphery of the incision, the first penetrator having a pre-tied knot disposed thereabout; a second penetrator carried by the shaft, the second penetrator configured to form a second penetration about the periphery of the incision, the second penetrator including suture disposed thereon such that during retraction of the first penetrator from the first penetration and the second penetrator from the second penetration, the first penetrator draws the suture through the first penetration via a link between the first penetrator and the suture such that the suture advances the pre-tied knot to suture the incision; and a foot movably connected to a distal region of the shaft, the foot movable from a non-deployed position aligned with the shaft to a deployed position at a non-perpendicular angle with respect to the shaft. 19. The suturing device of claim 18, wherein the non-perpendicular angle is about 40 degrees to about 50 degrees.20. The suturing device of claim 18, wherein the first penetrator is on an anterior side of the shaft and the second penetrator is on a posterior side of the shaft.21. The suturing device of claim 18, wherein the first penetrator is longer that the second penetrator.22. The suturing device of claim 18, wherein the foot has a first cuff and a second cuff connected to the first cuff via the link, the first cuff and the second cuff being configured to receive the first penetrator and the second penetrator respectively upon penetration by the first penetrator and the second penetrator about the periphery of the incision.23. The suturing device of claim 22, wherein the second cuff is pushed through the foot after the second cuff receives the second penetrator.
