Handles configured to be removably coupled to IO devices that are also configured to be coupled to powered drivers. Kits including IO devices and the present handles. Methods of using the present handles and IO devices.

An apparatus including a sterilizable tray having a base and at least one fixture connected to the tray adapted for removably securing an implant insertion device to the tray. The tray can be free of a first wall portion for permitting the proximal end of an implantable device to axially align with the end of the implant insertion device for coupling to the implant insertion device and can be free of a second wall portion for permitting a tool to axially align with the end of the implant insertion device so as to threadedly couple the implant insertion device to the implantable device. Related methods and apparatus are provided.

A protective container for a sterilized medical implant includes a base including a hollow body having a closed end and an opened end. The base including a thread. A cap is secured about the opened end of the hollow body. The cap includes a thread that cooperates with the thread provided on the base such that relative rotation of the base and the cap causes relative axial movement of the base and the cap. A sealing member is compressed between the base and the cap to provide a seal therebetween as a result of relative axial movement of the base and the cap.

A sterile packaging assembly configured to receive a surgical instrument is disclosed. The sterile packaging assembly comprises a vacuum-molded tray and a particulate trap. The vacuum-molded tray comprises an instrument cavity configured to receive the surgical instrument, and a trap cavity. The particulate trap is positioned in the trap cavity. The particulate trap comprises a housing including a funnel shaped side terminating in an opening. The opening is in communication with a chamber defined in the particulate trap.

Drivers and drive systems (e.g., off-axis drive systems, pneumatic motors, multi-gear drive systems, and/or the like), and kits comprising drivers with drive systems, such as those, for example, configured to move a drive shaft.

A double packaging structure for an object, which may be a sterile object, includes a hollow external container having a closed first end, an open second end and walls, and an internal container disposed inside the external container. The internal container includes a hollow body and a cap. The object is intended to be received in the body. To close its first end, the external container has a membrane capable of deforming when pressure is applied to the membrane. The membrane is configured so that a pressure applied to its outer face, along the longitudinal axis, pushes its inner face against the inner container and causes the inner container to exit at the second end of the external container in the absence of a closure system at the second end.

A staple cartridge comprising a cartridge body comprising a longitudinal slot, a deck surface, and a plurality of staple cavities defined in the cartridge body is disclosed. The cartridge body further comprises a plurality of projections extending from the deck surface. A surface of each projection is flush with one of a proximal end wall and a distal end wall of each staple cavity. The staple cartridge further comprises staples removably stored in the staple cavities.

A sterile packaging assembly configured to receive a surgical instrument is disclosed. The sterile packaging assembly comprises a vacuum-molded tray and a particulate trap. The vacuum-molded tray comprises an instrument cavity configured to receive the surgical instrument, and a trap cavity. The particulate trap is positioned in the trap cavity. The particulate trap comprises a housing including a funnel shaped side terminating in an opening. The opening is in communication with a chamber defined in the particulate trap.

Packaging systems, surgical kits and methods are disclosed for a tool including a working portion and a shank. The packaging system includes a casing with a distal section defining a cavity configured to receive the working portion, and a proximal section removably coupled to the distal section and being configured to receive the shank of the tool. A sleeve is retained by the distal section and is disposed within the cavity of the distal section. The sleeve defines a lumen adapted to receive the working portion. The sleeve is configured to rotate within the distal section to facilitate rotational installation of the tool relative to a surgical device.

In an aspect, a method of manufacturing a surgical kit includes providing one or more medical devices based on a three-dimensional (3D) image of an anatomical structure. The method additionally includes providing packaging based on the 3D image, and providing the surgical kit utilizing the packaging and the one or more medical devices. In another aspect, a surgical kit has one or more contoured packaging surface having a contour that matches a contour of an anatomical structure. The contoured packaging surface has one or more features for receiving one or more medical devices provided based on the contour in the 3D image. The surgical kit additionally has a lid connected under pressure with the one or more contoured packaging surface. The lid has apertures for sterilization of components of the one or more medical devices situated between the lid and the contoured packaging surface.
