Pole clamp assembly for medical devices
A pole clamp assembly is configured to facilitate removable coupling of one or more medical devices to a support structure. The pole clamp assembly includes a pole clamp that is configured to selectively grip the supporting structure. The pole clamp includes a fastener hub and a locking mechanism. A docking member is configured to operably couple a medical device of the one or more medical devices to the pole clamp. The docking member includes structure defining a fastener hub aperture and one or more recesses into which a portion of the locking mechanism can selectively reside. The locking mechanism is shiftable between a non-engaged position in which the docking member is rotatable relative to the pole clamp, and an engaged position in which rotation of the docking member relative to the pole clamp is inhibited.

DEVICE AND SYSTEM INCLUDING MECHANICAL ARMS
A device sized and shaped for insertion into a body comprising: at least one mechanical limb comprising: a support segment; a first flexible section extending from the support segment and terminating in a coupling section; and a second flexible section extending from the coupling section and terminating in a tool or a connector for a tool; wherein a long axis of one or more of the flexible sections is bendable in a single bending plane; wherein a long axis length of the first flexible section is at least double a maximum extent of the first flexible section perpendicular to a flexible section long axis; wherein a long axis length of the second flexible section is at least double a maximum extent of the second flexible section perpendicular to a flexible section long axis.

TUBULAR RETRACTOR SECUREMENT FRAME
A tubular retractor securement frame is disclosed including a mounting bracket, two flexor arms, and a device emplacement oriented to receive and hold in-place a surgical tool. The mounting bracket includes an elastically deformable plate, rails extending about orthogonal from the elastically deformable plate and about parallel to one another, and receptacles facing one another in the rails which are arranged to receive a retractor arm extending from a tubular retractor at a fixed angle. The flexor arms extend from the mounting bracket adjacent to the rails. The flexor arms are positioned so as not to occlude visualization through the tubular retractor and such that applying pressure to flex the flexor arms toward one another shifts the rails to accept or remove the retractor arm into or from the receptacles, and releasing the pressure reverts the rails so as to inhibit the retractor arm from being inserted or removed.
MEDICAL STABILIZATION APPARATUS
Systems and methods may provide medical stabilization according to one or more aspects of the present disclosure. For example, a medical stabilization apparatus may stabilize a spine of a patient during a medical procedure. An apparatus may include a tube component, a cable (e.g., a cable running through the tube component), an end assembly (e.g., for adjusting tension of the cable), a clamp adapter component (e.g., to attach the cable/tube component to another medical device, such as a spinous process clamp), and a sheath component. The sheath component may be secured over tube components, and the sheath component may attach to a channel of a channel component (e.g., to secure the tube components to a base or a platform).
LIGHTING DEVICES FOR HANDHELD SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS, HOLSTERS FOR SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS WITH LIGHTING DEVICES AND KITS CONTAINING SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS AND LIGHTING DEVICES
Lighting devices are disclosed for use with handheld surgical instruments, along with holsters for supporting surgical instruments with lighting devices thereon and kits containing surgical instruments and lighting devices.
Patient Support Apparatus With An Accessory Support
The present disclosure provides a coupling system for coupling a medical accessory to an accessory support is provided. The present disclosure also provides a system for powering a medical accessory with an accessory support.

STABILIZER FOR A DELIVERY SYSTEM
Disclosed herein are embodiments of stabilizers for use in delivering a replacement heart valve. The stabilizers can receive a portion of a delivery system, such as a handle, to prevent unwanted motion of the delivery system. The stabilizer can include a linear actuator for adjusting a position of the delivery system once held within the stabilizer.
