Subject: Expresso suture passer?

I'm transcribing an op note on repair of a rotator cuff, and the doc says:


The Expresso instrument was used to place a suture from the anterior region of the tear to the posterior flap, and then a slipknot was tied, which brought the edges together. 


I've never heard of this Expresso instrument.  Can anyone help me document this term?
