Abstract
A tissue clipping device for clipping tissue and methods of using the same. The device includes a tissue clipping assembly for clipping tissue and a drive assembly operable to control the operation of the tissue clipping assembly. The tissue clipping assembly includes a distal arm that is linearly extendable and retractable to clip tissue. The tissue clipping assembly may be decoupled from the drive assembly after tissue is clipped. Additional clipping assemblies may be deployed with the drive assembly to close larger defects.
