The present disclosure provides exemplary arm immobilization devices for a person and associated methods of use. Thus, in one aspect, the disclosure provides a device including or comprising an outer shell including an internal cavity and a configurable structure disposed within the internal cavity of the outer shell. The outer shell can be configured and dimensioned to accommodate an arm of a person thereon. Expansion or contraction of the configurable structure can drive expansion or contraction of the outer shell. In another aspect, the disclosure provides methods for immobilizing an arm of a person that include providing an arm immobilization device and supporting the arm of the person with the outer shell and the configurable structure.

Arm immobilization device and associated methods

The present disclosure provides exemplary collapsible drills and associated methods of use. Thus, in one aspect, the disclosure provides a collapsible drill including or comprising a chuck, a piston and a motor section. The chuck can be configured and dimensioned to receive a drill bit. The piston can include a pair of interlocking splines. The motor section drives rotation of the piston and the chuck. Depression of the piston can stop rotation of the chuck relative to the piston. In another aspect, the disclosure provides methods of drilling into a material that include providing a collapsible drill, driving rotation of the piston and the chuck with the motor section, and depressing the piston to stop rotation of the chuck relative to the piston.

Collapsible drill and associated methods of use
