Abstract
An alignment device for aligning an orthopedic plate with a bone attachment site includes one or more one light sources that are secured to an orthopedic plate holder with a mounting interface and in a location spaced from the orthopedic plate that is releasably secured to the distal end of the plate holder. The light sources are configured to project an illuminated indication pattern onto the plane the orthopedic plate and aligned with the primary axis of interest of the orthopedic plate, and which indication pattern extends a sufficient lateral distance away from the plate holder to allow the medical professional to align the axis of interest of the orthopedic plate with an out-of-view bone attachment site using at least one superficial anatomic landmark on the exterior of the patient and remote from the bone attachment site.
