Multiple suture placement system

1. An apparatus, comprising:

a plurality of thread lappets each having an attached thread;

a suturing probe including a thread capture chamber having a plurality of thread lappet receivers each configured to retain one of said plurality of thread lappets with said attached thread, said thread capture chamber opening into a recessed external surface delimiting an open area of said suturing probe;

a substrate capture chamber having a chamber side wall extending from a chamber bottom to a chamber port defining a transition edge delimiting a substrate capture chamber entry in said recessed external surface of said suturing probe;

a plurality of slender rods each slidably disposed in said suturing probe, said plurality of slender rods extendable through said open area into a corresponding one of plurality of thread lappet receivers of said thread capture chamber,

said plurality of slender rods comprise a first slender rod and a second slender rod, said first slender rod carrying a first thread lappet having a first thread extending to an unattached thread end, said second slender rod carrying a second thread lappet having a second thread extending to an unattached thread end, said first and second slender rods configured to carry said first and second thread lappets through a substrate captured by said substrate capture chamber to dispose said first thread and said second thread in spaced apart relation in said substrate,

wherein a first end of said first thread is configured to be knotted with a second end of said second thread and a second end of the first thread can be knotted with a first end of said second thread to form one thread loop having a crossed portion of said thread loop disposed on said substrate,

wherein first ends of said first and second threads are configured to be knotted and the second ends of said first and second thread are configured to be knotted to form one thread loop having portions of the thread loop disposed in generally parallel spaced apart relation on said substrate.

2. An apparatus, comprising:

a first thread lappet and second thread lappet joined by one thread;

a suturing probe including a thread capture chamber having a first thread lappet receiver and a second thread lappet receiver correspondingly configured to retain said first thread lappet and said second thread lappet, said thread capture chamber opening into a recessed external surface delimiting an open area of said suturing probe;

a substrate capture chamber having a chamber side wall extending from a chamber bottom to a chamber port defining a transition edge delimiting a substrate capture chamber entry in said recessed external surface of said suturing probe;

a first slender rod and a second slender rod each slidably disposed in said suturing probe, said first slender rod and said second slender rod each extendable through said open area into said first lappet receiver and said second thread lappet receiver of said thread capture chamber, said first thread lappet disposed on said first slender rod, said second thread lappet disposed in said second thread lappet receiver of said second thread capture chamber, said first slender rod configured to drive said first thread lappet through said substrate captured by said substrate capture chamber and into said first lappet receiver, said second slender rod configured to draw said second thread lappet from said second lappet receiver through said substrate captured by said substrate capture chamber, wherein a medial portion of said one thread is configured to be disposed diagonally on said substrate between end portions of said thread, said end portions are configured to be knotted to form one thread loop having a crossed portion of said thread loop disposed on said substrate.
