Moreover, the device may include a resection feature that guides resection of the long bone to separate a malleolus from the long bone.

Method for controlling flow of sperms in a uterine tube
10195325 · 2019-02-05 ·

There is provided a method for controlling a flow of sperms in a uterine tube formed by a uterine tube wall of a patient. The method comprises gently constricting (i.e., without substantially hampering the blood circulation in the uterine tube wall) at least one portion of the uterine tube wall to influence the flow of sperms in the uterine tube, and stimulating the constricted wall portion to cause contraction of the uterine tube wall portion to further influence the flow of sperms in the uterine tube. The method can be used for restricting or stopping the flow of sperms in the uterine tube, or for actively moving the fluid in the uterine tube, with a low risk of injuring the uterine tube.

DUAL CHAMBER LOCKING FERRULES DESIGNS FOR PERFORMING TENSIONABLE KNOTLESS SURGICAL PROCEDURES

Systems and methods are provided for performing tensionable knotless surgical procedures. A suture locking device that includes a one-way locking mechanism may be utilized for tensioning and locking one or more strands of suture during the surgical procedure. The one-way locking mechanism may be established by one or more locking barbs of the suture locking device.

TISSUE REPAIR CONSTRUCTS AND METHODS OF USE
20240268809 · 2024-08-15 · ·

Knotless soft suture constructs include a repair tape having a finger trap. The repair tape is preloaded with a transfer suture through the finger trap. The transfer suture is used to capture an end of the repair tape through itself, forming a cinching suture loop that can be tightened around the repair but not loosened.

CARTRIDGE AND CARTRIDGE SYSTEM
20240260969 · 2024-08-08 ·

A cartridge configured to store a clip unit is disclosed herein. The first cartridge includes a sheath connection portion configured to receive a sheath of an applicator. The second cartridge included a storage area configured to store at least a part of the clip unit. The second cartridge is movable relative to the first cartridge in a moving direction of the clip unit.

CARTRIDGE AND CARTRIDGE SYSTEM
20240260968 · 2024-08-08 ·

A cartridge configured to store a clip unit is described herein. The cartridge body having a storage area configured to store at least a part of the clip unit. The sheath connection portion is configured to receive a sheath of an applicator. The storage area includes a first area and a second area. The first area is configured to retract wings of the clip unit and configured to prevent a connection arm from connecting to the applicator. The second area is configured to connect the connection arm with the applicator.

DECOMPRESSION SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE
20240260975 · 2024-08-08 ·

A decompression surgery system includes an instrument shuttle configured to engage a first side of a target anatomical location, the instrument shuttle including a track. The system further includes a working channel configured to couple to and advance along the track of the instrument shuttle, the working channel having a distal end configured to engage a second side of the target anatomical location so that the target anatomical location is positioned between a portion of the instrument shuttle and the distal end of the working channel. The working channel is configured to receive one or more instruments therethrough.

Reciprocating rotary surgical cutting device and system for tissue resecting, and method for its use
12076041 · 2024-09-03 · ·

An endoscopic tissue resecting system that includes a reciprocating rotary surgical instrument for cutting tissue that includes a planetary gear assembly to vary rotational speed. A method of cutting and detaching tissue includes positioning an outer member such that tissue is located within a window in the outer member, engaging the tissue with an inner member, and simultaneously rotating at an increased speed relative to a rotary driver and translating the inner member to cut the tissue. A tangential cutting force is applied to the tissue with the inner member to mechanically cut and detach the tissue.

DISASSEMBLING ACCESSORY, ACCESSORY BOX AND METHOD FOR DISASSEMBLING PHYSIOLOGICAL SIGNAL MONITORING DEVICE

A disassembling accessory for disassembling a physiological signal monitoring device includes a base seat having an accommodating space, and a cover body connected to the base seat and movable between covering and open states. The physiological signal monitoring device includes a sensor kit having an through hole, and a transmitter removably mounted to and covering the sensor kit. The cover body has a button being movable and a pushing member connected co-movably to the button. When the cover body is in the covering state, the button is operable to drive the pushing member to move such that the pushing member extends through the through hole to push the transmitter for disassembling the transmitter from the sensor kit.

INSERTION DEVICE FOR A BIOSENSOR

An implant device for a biosensor comprises a housing unit, an implant module, a bottom seat and a sensor component. The implant module is disposed in an accommodating space of the housing unit. The implant module includes a main body unit, a guiding set, an implant seat, a first elastic member, a needle withdrawal seat, a second elastic member, and a needle implant member. When the housing unit is pressed downwardly, the implant seat is displaced downwardly to perform automatic needle implantation by virtue of an resilient force of the first elastic member; when the needle implantation is completed, a limiting relationship of the implant seat and the needle withdrawal seat is released, so the needle withdrawal seat completes automatic needle withdrawal by releasing a resilient force of the second elastic member. The implant seat and the needle withdrawal seat are guided by the guiding set to move stably, thereby achieving easy control of production tolerances, increasing production speed and yield rate, improving the stability of needle implantation, and making needle implantation more painless and sensationless.
