Medical implants, specifically small to large orthopedic implant joint replacements. Systems and methods for manufacturing orthopedic implant joint replacements and their instrumentation.

A method comprising the steps of applying an adhesive composition to a substrate bone repair region. The adhesive composition comprises a porous, biocompatible, biodegradable, resorbable, non-toxic, and polymerizable composition. The substrate bone repair region comprises a bone structure, implant or device surface, or tooth surface. The adhesive composition is cured to provide a polymerized adhesive composition resulting in repairing or augmenting the substrate bone repair region. The adhesive composition may be mixed with a bone graft material before application. The adhesive composition may be additionally applied to a barrier membrane that is placed over the substrate bone repair region where the adhesive composition or combination of adhesive composition and bone graft material is applied.

A spine simulator is disclosed herein. This spine simulator may be used to test and assess the biomechanical effects of various interventions to the spine that include surgical implants, excision, or fusion. Surgical implants, excision, or fusion can change the biomechanical outcomes of the specific spinal segments as recorded by load cells, 3D motion capture, and sensors, such as displacement sensors included in the spine simulator. These biomechanical effects are best measured in the spine with cadaveric specimens with multiple instrumentations that allow for complex movement analysis. Preferably the spine simulator is capable of customized testing of spinal segments from the cervical to sacral spine. Related methods of use are also provided.
