Disclosed herein are ratchet retracting handles and related methods for automatically retracting a stylet during insertion of a bone anchor.

Ratchet retracting handles and methods of using the same

Systems and related methods for changing the angle of a bone of a subject, the system may include a non-invasively adjustable implant configured to be placed inside a cavity within the bone. The non-invasively adjustable implant may couple to a first portion of bone and a second portion of bone that is separated or separable from the first portion of bone, such that non-invasive elongation of the adjustable implant causes movement of the first portion of bone and the second portion of bone apart angularly. The system may include an anchor configured to couple the non-invasively adjustable implant to bone. The non-invasively adjustable implant may include an anchor hole configured to receive the anchor therein.

Adjustable devices for treating arthritis of the knee

Disclosed herein are stylet control handles and related methods for extending and retracting a stylet during insertion of a bone anchor, and for providing a visual indication of the extent of extension of the stylet.

Stylet control handles and methods of using the same

Disclosed herein are power modules and methods for insertion of a cannulated bone anchor and a stylet. Power modules disclosed herein are configured to adjustably control insertion of a bone anchor and a stylet under power from a motor. In certain embodiments, the motor may be included in a power hand piece. The power modules disclosed herein may be further configured to releasably couple a power hand piece to a driver for insertion of the bone anchor and stylet into the bone of a subject.

Power modules and methods for bone anchor and stylet insertion

The present disclosure relates to safety blades for use in utility knives, related assemblies and methods of manufacturing. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to safety blades for use in utility knives, related assemblies and methods of manufacture which limit user exposure to associated cutting edges.

The present disclosure describes a spinal fixation system comprising a telescoping spinal rod, as well as methods of its use and a guide tower for use therewith. The telescoping rod can be extended after it has been inserted into the patient below the fascia, which permits it to be extended in the sub-fascial space.

Magnetically actuatable rod insertion for minimally invasive surgery

A jointed rod assembly for use in a spinal fixation construct involves a caudal rod portion connectable to an adjustment mechanism, and a cranial rod portion connectable to the adjustment mechanism. The adjustment mechanism is configured to rotate the caudal and cranial rod portions relative to one another about a joint axis that is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of the caudal and cranial rod portions. The caudal and cranial rod portions may be dimensioned to be compatible with other pieces of hardware commonly used for spinal fixation, such as bone anchors (e.g., pedicle screws), occipital plates, reducers, and others. The caudal and cranial rod portions are composed of a strong, rigid, non-absorbable, biocompatible material. The jointed rod assembly may be advantageously used in spinal fixation systems and methods of spinal fixation.

Post-operatively adjustable angled rod

Powered chairs, assemblies for use in the powered chairs, and components for use in the assemblies are provided. Electrical systems for use in the powered chairs, and components for use in the electrical systems are provided. Control systems and methods for operating powered chairs are also provided. Any given chair may be locally and/or remotely controlled.

The present disclosure includes bone screws and assemblies thereof for surgical procedures of the spine including but not limited to posterior spinal fixation procedures.

Posterior spinal fixation screws

Magnetically actuateable rod insertion for minimally invasive surgery

A system, and method of using the system, for changing the angle of a bone of a subject is provided by the present disclosure. In one embodiment the system includes a non-invasively adjustable implant configured to be placed inside a longitudinal cavity within the bone and comprising an outer housing and an inner shaft telescopically disposed in the outer housing, at least one of the outer housing and inner shaft associated with a first anchor hole and a second anchor hole, the first anchor hole configured to pass a first anchor for coupling the adjustable implant to a first portion of bone and the second anchor hole configured for to pass a second anchor for coupling the adjustable implant to the first portion of bone, the inner shaft configured to couple to a second portion of bone that is separated or separable from the first portion of bone, such that non-invasive elongation of the adjustable implant causes the inner shaft to extend from the outer housing and to move the first portion of bone and the second portion of bone apart angularly; a driving element configured to be remotely operable to telescopically displace the inner shaft in relation to the outer housing; and wherein the first anchor hole is configured to allow the first anchor to pivot in at least a first angular direction and the second anchor hole is configured to allow the second anchor to translate in at least a first translation direction.

Chair assemblies (e.g., powered recliner chairs, rocker style chairs, fixed position chairs, chairs with pivoting seats, recliner chairs, a sub-combination thereof, or a combination thereof), tables and trays are provided. More particularly, chair assemblies (e.g., powered recliner chairs, rocker style chairs, fixed position chairs, chairs with pivoting seats, recliner chairs, a sub-combination thereof, or a combination thereof), tables and trays, modular components for use within the chair, table, and tray assemblies, and parts for use within the modular components are provided.
