A reamer head assembly comprising: a base member supporting a reaming member, the reaming member comprising a reaming member configured to ream bone; wherein the reaming head assembly comprises a plurality of recesses arranged about the reaming surface, the plurality of recesses configured to allow manual gripping of the reaming head assembly.

An exemplary system includes a memory storing instructions and a processor communicatively coupled to the memory. The processor may be configured to execute the instructions to: detect an intent of a user of a computer-assisted surgical system to use a robotic instrument attached to the computer-assisted surgical system to interact with a target object while the target object is located in a surgical space; determine a pose of the target object in the surgical space; and perform, based on the detected intent of the user to interact with the target object and the determined pose of the target object in the surgical space, an operation with respect to the target object.

A needle and suture assembly is provided for use with an endoscopic suturing device with a needle holder arm. The needle assembly includes a needle tip and a needle body. The needle tip has a sharp end, a capture groove, a tab groove and a plug portion positioned between the capture groove and the tab groove. The needle body has first and second ends, tip tabs, retainers for removably retaining the needle body relative to the needle holder arm, and a suture opening. The needle tip is fixed relative to the needle body by plastic deformation of the tip tabs into the tab groove. A suture extends into the suture opening of the needle body and is fixed therein.

A surgical drill for use with a drill bit. The drill includes a handpiece with a motor and a brake mechanism. The brake mechanism is a sliding rack adjacent a first end and a second end with a stop adjacent the drill bit. An actuator is mounted to the handpiece and a plunger is coupled to the actuator. A sensor asserts a signal when the drill bit penetrates bone. When the sensor asserts the signal indicting the drill bit penetrated bone, the actuator moves the plunger into engagement with the rack to prevent further insertion of the drill bit.

A non-pneumatic tourniquet including a tourniquet ring configured to resiliently constrict around a body part of a subject. The tourniquet ring defines a plurality of openings. A handle moves the tourniquet ring onto the body part and includes a first strap having a first end secured to the tourniquet ring at one of the openings and a second end secured to the tourniquet ring at one of the openings. A second strap has a first end secured to the tourniquet ring at one of the openings and a second end secured to the tourniquet ring at one of the openings.

A device for delivering a bone material to a surgical site is provided. The device comprises a body having an upper portion and a lower portion. The lower portion of the body is substantially transverse to the upper portion and has an opening for receiving a bone material. An internal chamber is disposed within the upper portion and the lower portion, and a plunger is slidably disposed in at least the internal chamber of the body. The plunger has a distal end configured for delivering the bone material out of the lower portion of the body, wherein movement of the plunger in a first position toward the lower portion of the body delivers the bone material from the lower portion of the body to the surgical site. Methods of delivering the bone material are also provided.

Apparatus for performing a minimally-invasive procedure, the apparatus comprising: a shaft having a distal end and a proximal end; a handle attached to the proximal end of the shaft; and an end effector attached to the distal end of the shaft; wherein the shaft comprises a flexible portion, a first articulating portion and a second articulating portion, wherein the flexible portion extends distally from the handle, the first articulating portion extends distally from the flexible portion, and the second articulating portion extends distally from the first articulating portion; wherein at least one articulation cable extends from the handle to the first articulating portion, such that when tension is applied to the at least one articulation cable, the first articulating portion deflects; wherein a plurality of articulation cables extend from the handle to the second articulating portion, such that when tension is applied to at least one of the plurality of articulation cables, the second articulating portion deflects.

Provided is a locking apparatus, and more particularly, to a locking apparatus with improved locking performance as a locking unit is stuck between different members capable of moving relative to each other and in which locking is released as an unlocking unit pushes the locking unit.

The present disclosure presents a trajectory array guide system for defining a trajectory to a target location in the brain of a subject and for guiding an elongated tool along the trajectory. The trajectory array guide system can comprise: a base, an array guide, an imaging unit, and an elongated handle configured for connection with a stereotaxic navigation system. The present disclosure presents a method of using a trajectory array guide system for defining a trajectory to a target location in the brain of a subject and for guiding an elongated tool along the trajectory.

A capital fragment guide is configured to be temporarily secured to a capital fragment of a metatarsal that has been surgically separated from a proximal portion of the metatarsal. The capital fragment guide can be manipulated to correspondingly manipulate the capital fragment, thereby correcting a bunion. An implant can permanently secure the proximal portion to the capital fragment.
