A surgical clip applier includes a train of clips disposed in a plane with a single clip removed from the train of clips and disposed in a staging position. A pair of jaws are adapted to receive the single clip from the staging position by operation of a jaw loader moveable outside the plane of the train of clips. In an associate method, a handle assembly is provided which is moveable in an open stroke and a closed stroke. A source of surgical clips are provided along with a pair of jaws which are adapted to receive one of the clips as the handle assembly is moved in an open stroke, the jaws are open to receive the clip. Following the opening of the jaws, a jaw loader is extended to a position between the jaws to move the clip into the jaws. The handle assembly is moveable in a closed stroke during which the jaws are closed to crimp the clip. Prior to this closing of the jaws, the jaw loader is retracted from the position between the jaws leaving the clip in the jaws.
1. A surgical clip applier, comprising: a cartridge defining a disposable discrete subassembly adapted to be removably coupled to a reusable handle assembly, the cartridge comprising: a housing defining a longitudinal axis;a drive pin protruding from the housing transversely to the longitudinal axis
1. A surgical clip applier, comprising: a cartridge defining a disposable discrete subassembly adapted to be removably coupled to a reusable handle assembly, the cartridge comprising: a housing defining a longitudinal axis;a drive pin protruding from the housing transversely to the longitudinal axis, the drive pin movable along the longitudinal axisa train of clips disposed in a plane;a single clip removed from the train of clips and disposed in a staging position;a pair of jaws sized and configured to receive the single clip from the staging position, the pair of jaws longitudinally fixed with respect to the longitudinal axis of the housing;a clip advancer movable in the plane of the train of clips, the clip advancer biasing the train of clips in a first direction; anda jaw loader moveable outside the plane of the train of clips for advancing the single clip from the staging position into the jaws, the jaw loader operatively coupled to the drive pin; wherein,the jaw loader is movable independently of the clip advancer; andthe staging position is removed from the plane of the train of clips and removed from the pair of jaws. 2. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 1, wherein: the plane of the train of clips is a first plane; andthe single clip in the staging position is disposed in a second plane, generally parallel to the first plane. 3. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 1, further comprising: a spring for biasing the train of clips generally toward the jaws; andthe spring being adapted to move the train of clips independently of the jaw loader. 4. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 1, wherein: the single clip and the jaw loader facilitate maintenance of the clips of the clip train in the plane of the clip train. 5. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 1, further comprising: a handle assembly comprising:a first handle coupled to a first pawl and a second handle coupled to a second pawl, the first and second handle operable to move the pawls laterally together to close the pair of jaws. 6. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 5, wherein the drive pin is sized and configured to engage the handle assembly. 7. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 6, wherein the drive pin is movable proximally along the longitudinal axis of the housing during a close stroke of the handle assembly. 8. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 5, wherein the first pawl and the second pawl are disposed at the distal end of the handle assembly. 9. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 8, wherein the handle assembly further comprises a fulcrum pivotably connecting the first handle and the second handle. 10. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 9, wherein the cartridge is snap-fit to the handle assembly at the fulcrum. 11. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 5, wherein each jaw of the pair of jaws comprises an outer surface and wherein the first and second pawls each engage the outer surface of a corresponding jaw of the pair of jaws to close the jaws. 12. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 1, wherein the cartridge is removably attachable to the handle assembly in a snap-fit relationship. 13. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 1, wherein the housing comprises a top housing and a bottom housing. 14. The surgical clip applier recited in claim 13, wherein the top housing defines a platform adapted to receive the pair of jaws, and wherein the housing further comprises a cap covering the pair of jaws over the platform.
