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.

Packaging and methods for packaging tools having a sharp or cutting edge, such as surgical tools, in which the tool is packaged under sterile conditions. The tool may be packaged first—at least partially—and in particular with its sensitive cutting edges and working surfaces packaged in a protective package.

A multi-unit packing system includes a packaging tray assembly supporting a medical device or product. The packaging tray assembly includes a tray that holds the medical product within a spring-loaded card. The spring-loaded card being disposed within the inner container of the tray. The spring-loaded card including a one or more openings that are positioned to maintain the medical product in a defined orientation while preventing the inadvertent movement of the medical product. The spring-loaded card comprises elastic properties to allow it to be elastically compressed when the barrier is sealed to the tray, and uncompressed when the barrier is peeled away from the tray, allowing a portion of the spring-loaded card to extend beyond a surface of the tray to provide easier access, removal and transfer of the sterile medical product within the sterile field.

Quick-deployable medical drapes with included integrated toolkits are provided that allow the medical drape, once deployed, to simultaneously protect an area of a patient in need of a medical procedure and expose tools of the integrated toolkit for immediate access by medical professionals. The integrated toolkits may be of different types that include medical and/or surgical tools for use medical procedures. The medical drapes are formed of fully or partially sterile materials and formed into packages having a stored state, in which the medical drape and toolkit are protected against contamination, and a deployed state, in which the medical drape is placed on the patient and ready for the medical procedure.

The invention relates to an assembly comprising a transparent “outer” packaging element (1) defining a chamber, and an “inner” packaging element (2) received in said chamber of the outer packaging element (1). Said inner packaging element (2) comprises at least first and second packaging portions (21, 22) that are transparent, each of which has at least one cavity (41, 42) for receiving an article, and a sealing sheet that is at least partially opacifying, and that comprises two portions applied over the two packaging portions (21, 22) in such a manner as to close said cavities (41, 42). The two packaging portions (21, 22) of the inner packaging element (2) are folded over towards each other towards a configuration in which the two portions of said sealing sheet applied over the two packaging portions (21, 22) of the inner packaging element (2) face each other.

An implant is provided that is operable to be disposed between and fuse two sections of a bone. The implant includes a material that is operable to abut against the two sections of the bone. The material is porous and/or fibrous and is operable to receive at least one cellular growth factor.
