In some embodiments, system and/or method may include an intervertebral implant for a human spine including an upper body, a lower body, first and second expansion members, and an expansion mechanism. A superior surface of the upper body may function to engage a first vertebra of the human spine. An inferior surface of the lower body may function to engage a second vertebra of the human spine. The first expansion member may include at least a first angled portion positionable, during use, between the upper body and the lower body. The second expansion member may include at least a second angled portion positionable, during use, between the upper body and the lower body. An expansion mechanism may convey, during use, the first and second angled portions in opposing directions increasing a separation distance between the upper body and the lower body.

Expandable fusion device for positioning between adjacent vertebral bodies

Systems and methods for simplified message grouping and display are provided. In example embodiments, a plurality of messages are received within a conversation which is accessible by a plurality of client devices. Messages are grouped into different cards based on criteria associated with the cards. During a transition between displaying a first of the cards to a second of the cards, an animation may be displayed.

Simplified message grouping and display

Methods, devices, systems, and computer-readable media with instructions for text communications with imbedded audio or audiovisual elements are described. One embodiment involves displaying a user interface for chat communication with a time-ordered display space for communications. Text communications and audiovisual communications are each presented in associated rows within the user interface. Various embodiments enable audio or video notes as well as audio or video streaming or multi-user calls within the user interface with individual communications or connections presented within the time-ordered display. In some embodiments, communications within the display are deleted based on ephemeral message triggers.

Systems and methods for chat with audio and video elements

An intervertebral implant including a first substantially pyramidal-shaped wedge having: a first pair of laterally extending flanges, and a second pair of laterally extending flanges spaced from the first pair of laterally extending flanges; an upper body having an inferior surface, a superior surface, and a pair of recessed tracks for receiving the first pair of laterally extending flanges; and a lower body having a superior surface, an inferior surface, and a pair of recessed tracks for receiving the second pair of laterally extending flanges. The first substantially pyramidal-shaped wedge is movable between a first position and a second position within the recessed tracks of the upper body and the lower body. The intervertebral implant also includes a case housing the first substantially pyramidal-shaped wedge.

An anchor device for use in sacroiliac joint stabilization comprises a housing having one or more apertures; one or more engagement members at least partially disposed in the housing, where at least one of the one or more engagement members is movable between a retracted position and an extended position such that, when in the extended position, the at least one of the one or more engagement members extends through at least one of the one or more apertures; wherein, when in the extended position, the at least one of the one or more engagement members is configured to move to the extended position within cancellous bone of a sacrum; and wherein the anchor device comprises a continuous channel extending from a first end of the anchor device to a second end of the anchor device, the channel being configured to receive a guidewire.

Sacroiliac joint stabilization and fixation devices and related methods

An anchor device for use in sacroiliac joint stabilization comprises a housing having a bore, one or more apertures, and a threaded outer surface, one or more engagement members at least partially disposed in the housing, where at least one of the one or more engagement members is movable between a retracted position and an extended position such that, when the at least one of the one or more engagement members is in the extended position, the at least one of the one or more engagement members extends through at least one of the one or more apertures, and where, when the at least one of the one or more engagement members is in the extended position, the at least one of the one or more engagement members is configured to engage a cortical wall of a sacrum bone.

A spinal stabilization system may be formed in a patient. In some embodiments, a minimally invasive procedure may be used to form a spinal stabilization system in a patient Bone fastener assemblies may be coupled to vertebrae Each bone fastener assembly may include a bone fastener and a collar. The collar may be rotated and/or angulated relative to the bone fastener. Detachable members may be coupled to the collar to allow for formation of the spinal stabilization system through a small skin incision. The detachable members may allow for alignment of the collars to facilitate insertion of an elongated member in the collars. An elongated member may be positioned in the collars and a closure member may be used to secure the elongated member to the collars.
