Ball and socket joint system and method therefor
11534315 · 2022-12-27 · ·

A system is disclosed herein for providing a kinetic assessment and preparation of a prosthetic joint comprising one or more prosthetic components. The system comprises a prosthetic component including sensors and circuitry configured to measure load, position of load on a curved surface, joint stability, range of motion, and impingement. In one embodiment, the system is for a ball and socket joint of a musculoskeletal system. The system further includes a computer having a display configured to graphical display quantitative measurement data to support rapid assimilation of the information. The kinetic assessment measures joint alignment under loading that will be similar to that of a final joint installation. The kinetic assessment can use trial or permanent prosthetic components. Furthermore, adjustments can be made to the applied load magnitude, position of load, and joint alignment by various means to fine-tune an installation.

20220401221 · 2022-12-22 ·

A surgical system can be configured to obtain image data of a joint that comprises at least a portion of a humerus; segment the image data to determine a shape for a diaphysis of the humerus; based on the determined shape of the diaphysis, determine an estimated pre-morbid shape of the humerus; based on the estimated shape of the humerus, identify one or more bone fragments in the image data; and based on the identified bone fragments in the image data, generate an output.

Humeral Head and Cup Trial with Flexure

Disclosed herein is a humeral head and cup trials, a system for humeral trialing, and a method for removing a humeral head and cup trial from a humeral stem. The humeral trial may include a first portion, a second portion, and a post extending from the second portion. The first portion may define an articular surface. The post may define a first length in a first configuration and a second length in a second configuration. The first length may be greater than the second length. The post may change from the first configuration to the second configuration by moving the first portion with respect to the second portion.

Shoulder arthroplasty system method with combination humeral sizer, trial, and guide

A shoulder arthroplasty kit includes a combination sizer and guide device with a base portion including a rim configured to be positioned against a resected surface of a humerus. A cavity which is configured to receive a mounting portion of a humeral base component extends proximally from the base portion, the cavity. The combination sizer and guide device includes a convex outer surface which replicates at least a part of an outer bearing surface of a humeral head component. A bore which is perpendicular to the distal plane extends between the cavity and the convex outer surface. The kit further includes a guide pin with a maximum diameter sized to fit within the bore such that the guide pin is guided by the bore during insertion of the guide pin into the resected surface of the humerus.

System and method for intraoperative surgical planning

The subject matter includes systems, methods, and prosthetic devices for joint reconstruction surgery. A computer-assisted intraoperating planning method can include accessing a first medical image providing a first view of a joint within a surgical site as well as receiving selection of a first component of a modular prosthetic device implanted in the first bone of the joint. The method continues by displaying a graphical representation of the first component of the modular prosthetic device overlaid on the first medical image, and updating a graphical representation of the first component based on receiving positioning inputs representative of an implant location of the first component relative to landmarks on the first bone visible within the first medical image. The method concludes by presenting a selection interface enabling visualization of additional components of the modular prosthetic device virtually connected to the first component and overlaid on the first medical image.

Shoulder arthroplasty trial device

A arthroplasty trial tool for a human shoulder can include a handle, a first sensor, and a user interface. The handle can include a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first sensor can produce a first sensor signal as a function of a sensed shoulder condition. The user interface can be configured to display a first value as a function of the first sensor signal.

UNIVERSAL SHOULDER PROSTHESIS SYSTEM AND TOOLS
20230096120 · 2023-03-30 ·

A modular shoulder prosthesis system, in at least one embodiment, provides flexibility in shoulder replacements and ability to switch between a traditional anatomic Total Shoulder Replacement (ta-TSR) to a reverse Total Shoulder Replacement (r-TSR). Optionally, the system provides for a modular adaptation for the glenoid side in a TSR. The system includes a baseplate, a modular component, a humeral base and a modular humeral component. The baseplate includes a base with at least two attachment points extending in from opposed outer circumferential sides of the base. The modular component and the modular humeral component configured to cooperate with each other. The baseplate and the humeral base, or alternatively a second baseplate, are capable of attachment to different modular components to facilitate both ta-TSR and r-TSR with a change in the attached modular component.

Stemmed implant

A stemmed implant comprises a proximal body with a distal shaft extending from the proximal body. The proximal body exterior may be spherical, conical, cylindrical, or another surface of revolution. The distal shaft comprises multiple longitudinal ridges which may originate from the proximal body as separate columns, or which may merge together. The distal shaft and/or the ridges may become narrower as they extend away from the proximal body.
