According to some embodiments, a method of treating a skin surface of a subject comprises heating a skin surface, abrading native skin tissue of a subject using a microdermabrasion device, wherein using the microdermabrasion device comprises moving the microdermabrasion device relative to the skin surface while simultaneously delivering at least one treatment fluid to the skin surface being treated and cooling the abraded skin surface.

A surgical instrument system includes a commonly-sized orthopaedic surgical instrument assembly for use in implanting a femoral component, along with a number of orthopaedic surgical instrument assemblies having varying sizes of instruments of use in implanting a tibial tray component and a patella component.

Devices and methods for affixing reinforcing material to a fascial incision in an abdominal wall to reinforce and augment closures thereof. The device includes first and second arms, each having a proximal end and a distal end extending away from a housing with a length therebetween. The distal end of the first arm is spaced from the distal end of the second arm such that the first and second arms are engageable with reinforcing material on opposing sides of a fascial incision. One or more fixation elements are deployable from the distal end of at least one of the first and second arms to affix the reinforcing material on opposing sides of the fascial incision.

A storage tray provides storage for multiple types of wires, catheters, and other instruments used during surgical procedures. The storage tray includes a base and a set of walls forming a basin that holds liquid. A wire containment section within the basin holds multiple coiled guidewires in a channel filled with the liquid. The wire containment section includes an inner wall and one or more wall segments forming an outer boundary of the channel. A wire holder outside the channel holds end portions of the guidewires. Pulling an end portion of one of the coiled guidewires horizontally causes the guidewire to slide along the inner wall for separation and removal from the storage tray.

Device for folding an instrument tray into a packaging material, comprising a supporting surface for supporting the instrument tray during folding of the instrument tray into the packaging material, a first folding plate and a second folding plate, a movable folding aid for fixing the packaging material over a predefined line portion before and/or during the making of a fold, at least one movable clamp for gripping and moving the packaging material, a control unit for controlling the movement of the first folding plate between its respective first and second positions, the movement of the second folding plate between its respective first and second positions, the movement of the folding aid, and the movement and clamping and release of the at least one clamp.

It is the first surgical instrument holder designed specifically to maximize the efficiency of instrument exchange during surgery. It sits on top of the patient laying on the operating room table and fits the curvature of the average human torso while it places the chambers that hold the surgical instruments at the most natural angle for the hand of the standing surgeon. The size of the chambers is designed so it fits most laparoscopic surgical instruments in use today. It has two openings, an entrance opening and an exit opening. The entrance opening faces the surgeon and designed to enable the surgeon to insert the instrument without having to look at the holder. That enables the surgeon eyes to remain completely focused on the surgical field. That may increase the efficiency of instrument exchange. Which increases the efficiency of the operation. It also prevents the instruments from falling on the floor and the potential to break.
