An abrasive facial buffer system consists of a tool head, a handle, a vibrating mechanism, a power source, and a control switch. The vibrating mechanism and the power source are positioned within the handle. The control switch is mounted onto the handle. The power source is electrically connected to the vibrating mechanism through the control switch thus powering the tool head that is operatively coupled with the vibrating mechanism. The tool head include a skin exfoliation head that is used to remove dead skin and a pair of brush heads that is preferably utilized to clean a set of teeth with dental braces.

A handle assembly for a handheld surgical instrument is disclosed. The handle assembly may include a body portion extending parallel to a longitudinal axis, a fixed handle interfaced with the body portion and extending downwardly from the body portion and away from the longitudinal axis, and a detachable handle portion. The fixed handle may define a proximal contact surface. The detachable handle portion may define an internal surface configured to interface with the proximal contact surface of the fixed handle and comprise at least one attachment feature to removably couple the detachable handle portion to the fixed handle.

An end effector for a surgical stapling device includes an anvil, a multiple use loading unit, and an ejector assembly. The multiple use loading unit is pivotally secured to the anvil and includes a channel member defining a cavity and a staple cartridge received within the cavity. The staple cartridge has a distal portion having an angled lower surface. The ejector assembly includes an ejector button that is supported on the channel member and engages the angled lower surface of the staple cartridge such that movement of the ejector button from an advanced position to a retracted position in relation to the channel member lifts the distal portion of the staple cartridge from the cavity of the channel member.

Drill guides are disclosed herein that include a tapered projection that hooks under a bone to position the drill guide relative to the bone. The drill guide is used to drill a hole that receives a suture anchor.

Various embodiments relate generally to surgical instruments, tools, and apparatuses for medical use, including, but not limited to, forceps, tweezers, and pincers, as well as other anatomical tools for surgical and medical uses, and, more specifically, to surgical instruments implementing a coupling member to effectuate multiple pivot axes enhance, for example, effective lengths with which to access an internal surgical site. In some examples, a surgical instrument may include lever members, each of which may include a pivot portion, a force application portion, and a contacting portion. The surgical instrument may also include a coupling member configured to position multiple pivot portions adjacent proximal ends of a first and second lever member to effectuate a closing state at which contacting portions are positioned at a second distance, which is less than the first distance, at distal ends of a first and second lever member.

A surgical instrument made from flexibly resilient sheet metal has a handle formed into a sheet metal beam having a convex shape for improved strength. Raised uninterrupted arcuate protrusions on the outer surface of the handle of the instrument are provided to add additional strength and to provide improved grip retention when the surgical instrument is being used during surgical procedures. The improved handle is shown integrally as part of a needle holder capable of clamping surgical needles of varying diameters.

A surgical stapler can comprise an anvil comprising a staple pocket formed in a tissue contacting surface. The staple pocket can comprise a midline or centerline, a first forming cup, and a second forming cup. The first forming cup can comprise a first interior sidewall comprising a first vertical portion which is substantially perpendicular to the tissue contacting surface. The second forming cup can comprise a second interior sidewall comprising a second vertical portion which is substantially perpendicular to the tissue contacting surface. The first vertical portion and the second vertical portion can extend through the centerline, wherein the first interior sidewall and the second interior sidewall can comprise a trap for deforming a first staple leg of a staple to a first side of the centerline and for deforming a second staple leg of the staple to a second side of the centerline.

A tool useful for deploying a flip anchor connected to a cable includes a housing with a first end and a second end; and a guiding tube having a bore therethrough. The guiding tube has a proximal end releasably connected to the first end of said housing, and a distal end configured to hold said flip anchor. The housing includes a mechanism having a low resistance surface and a slider having a high friction surface facing the low resistance surface, where the slider is movable between a) a clamping position configured to clamp the cable between the low resistance surface and the high friction surface; and b) a release position configured to allow the cable to move freely on the low resistance surface. A safety button on said housing is movable between an elevated position where the safety button holds the slider in said first position, and a depressed position where the safety button releases the slider, allowing it to enter the second position. The slider is configured to move the cable distally upon movement from the clamping position to the release position, deploying the flip anchor from the guiding tube.

An end effector for a surgical stapling device includes an anvil, a multiple use loading unit, and an ejector assembly. The multiple use loading unit is pivotally secured to the anvil and includes a channel member defining a cavity and a staple cartridge received within the cavity. The staple cartridge has a distal portion having an angled lower surface. The ejector assembly includes an ejector button that is supported on the channel member and engages the angled lower surface of the staple cartridge such that movement of the ejector button from an advanced position to a retracted position in relation to the channel member lifts the distal portion of the staple cartridge from the cavity of the channel member.

A portable device and method of supplying power to the portable device may provide a sterile environment that may protect the health and safety of patients on whom the device is employed. The portable device may be charged inside of the sterile environment. The portable device may be charged using at least one chargeable battery that may be arranged internal and/or external to a portion of the portable device, or internal and/or external to the portable device. A power supply may be connected to the at least one chargeable battery and power the portable device for use. The portable device may be charged up to 100% and/or or fully charged prior to opening the sterile environment.
