A medical device includes a hollow tubular connector having a first open end and a second open end, the first open end configured to be connected to a suction port of a surgical cutting device, and the second open end configured to be connected to a source of pressurized air, the hollow tubular connector including a first seal located proximate the first open end and having a first diameter, the first seal being configured to sealingly accommodate a tubular shank, of a first diameter, of a blade of the surgical cutting device.

Declogging method and system

A bone fastener includes a head including a first receiver defining an implant cavity and a distal portion defining a plurality of adjacent grooves. The head further includes a second receiver defining an implant cavity. A first resilient member is configured for disposal within the plurality of adjacent grooves and a second resilient member is configured for disposal within the plurality of adjacent grooves. A shaft is aligned with the first receiver and is configured to engage tissue. Systems, surgical instruments, spinal constructs, implants and methods are disclosed.

Spinal implant system and method

A medical instrument sheath including an elongated hollow tube having a wall comprised of polymeric material; and at least one electrical lead embedded inside the wall, wherein the at least one electrical lead is configured to be connected with a respective electrode disposed in a member located inside the sheath and extending from a distal end of the sheath.

Flexible bipolar sheath

Provided is a medical device comprising an inner tubular member, an outer tubular member having a distal end and an open window disposed at the distal end, a first electrode and/or a second electrode disposed at the distal end of the outer tubular member, and a cannulated plunger or armature or shaft configured to drive the inner tubular member to cut tissue in cooperation with the open window of the outer tubular member. The first electrode and the second electrode may be configured to provide RF energy needed for a surgical operation and may be configured to be substantially symmetrical or asymmetrical along a longitudinal axis of the outer tubular member.

Medical device

Disclosed herein is a medical device. The medical device includes an outer tubular member and an inner tubular member. The outer tubular member has a distal end, an open window disposed at the distal end, and one or more dimples. The inner tubular member has a distal tip and one or more axial grooves. The inner tubular member is configured to be received within the outer tubular member. The one or more axial grooves and the one or more dimples are configured to align the distal tip of the inner tubular member with the open window of the outer tubular member. The open window of the outer tubular member and the distal tip of the inner tubular member are configured to cut tissue.

Planar alignment for asymmetric cutting members

Disclosed herein is a medical device. The medical device includes two coaxially aligned solenoids and a cannulated armature configured to be received within the two coaxially aligned solenoids.

Disposable debrider with cannulated solenoid

Disclosed herein is a medical device. The medical device includes a blade tube section, a solenoid, and a mechanical arrangement. The blade tube section includes an outer blade tube, an inner blade tube, and a cutting window at a distal end of the blade tube section. The solenoid is offset from a central axis of the blade tube section. The mechanical arrangement is between the inner blade tube and the solenoid.

Methods of reciprocation in a surgical shaver

Disclosed herein is a medical device. The medical device includes a blade tube section, a motor, and a mechanical arrangement. The blade tube section includes an outer blade tube, inner blade tube, and a cutting window at a distal end of the blade tube section. The motor is offset from a central axis of the blade tube section. The mechanical arrangement is between the inner blade tube and the motor.

Disclosed herein is a medical device. The medical device includes a blade tube section, a motor, and a cotch yoke or slotted link mechanism. The blade tube section includes an outer blade tube, an inner blade tube, and a cutting window at a distal end of the blade tube section. The motor is spaced from the blade tube section. The scotch yoke or slotted link mechanism is between the inner blade tube and the motor.

Disclosed herein is a medical device. The medical device includes a blade tube section, a motor, and a lever arm. The blade tube section includes an outer blade tube, an inner blade tube, and a cutting window at a distal end of the blade tube section. The motor is spaced from the blade tube section. The lever arm is between the inner blade tube and the motor.
