The disclosure describes systems and methods for altering bone sections in a patient. In one embodiment, a system may include an intramedullary implant including: a housing configured to be secured to a first section of bone, where the housing may include one or more shaft engaging grooves axially extending along an inner surface thereof; a distraction shaft configured to be secured to a second section of bone, where the distraction shaft may include one or more grooves axially extending along an inner surface thereof. The system may further include an actuator disposed within the housing and operably coupled to the distraction shaft, and in response to rotation of the actuator, the one or more grooves of the distraction shaft may engage with the one or more shaft engaging grooves of the housing, causing axial displacement of the distraction shaft relative to the housing.

A clamp for inter alia a bronchoscope, the clamp comprising a spine with frame which has a channel through which a tube of inter alia the bronchoscope is received. The frame includes clamping means to grip the tube within the frame to fix it in position. The clamping is releasable to allow further movement of the tube relative to the frame.

A medical apparatus system (1000) is provided, including a medical apparatus (100) and a fixing plate (900) for fixing the medical apparatus (100). A fixing member (901, 902, 903, 1003, 1004) is formed by cutting along a trajectory (904) on the fixing plate (900); the fixing member (901, 902, 903, 1003, 1004) includes a free end (908, 9031, 10032, 10042) and a connection end (907, 9035, 10031, 10041); the connection end (907, 9035, 10031, 10041) is connected to a fixing plate body (990); the free end (908, 9031, 10032, 10042) can protrude from a plane at which the fixing plate body (990) is located. The fixing member (901, 902, 903, 1003, 1004) can surround an outer surface of the medical apparatus (100) to fix the medical apparatus (100); or the medical apparatus (100) can pass through the fixing member (901, 902, 903, 1003, 1004) and be fixed. The trajectory (904) includes a starting end (905, 1007) and a terminating end (906, 1008). When an outer contour of the fixing member (901, 902, 903, 1001, 1002, 1005, 1006) overlaps the trajectory of the fixing member on the fixing plate, the starting end (905, 1007) rotates outwardly or inwardly with respect to the fixing member (901, 902, 903, 1001, 1002, 1005, 1006) to form a first arc; and the terminating end (906, 1008) rotates outwardly or inwardly with respect to the fixing member (901, 902, 903, 1001, 1002, 1005, 1006) to form a second, arc. The stability of the medical apparatus system (1000) can be ensured under the action of an external force to the medical apparatus system (1000) during transportation.

According to some embodiments, a method of treating a skin surface of a subject comprises heating a skin surface, abrading native skin tissue of a subject using a microdermabrasion device, wherein using the microdermabrasion device comprises moving the microdermabrasion device relative to the skin surface while simultaneously delivering at least one treatment fluid to the skin surface being treated and cooling the abraded skin surface.

A multifunctional enclosure is described having an elongated sleeve configured with an enlarged opening for the insertion of an elongated member of a medical probe. The multifunctional enclosure is configured to prevent the elongated member of the medical probe from swinging and becoming damaged during transport. The multifunctional enclosure may further comprise an attachment component for securing the medical probe to the multifunctional enclosure. Furthermore, at least one vent may be configured onto the multifunctional enclosure, such as on a first end closure portion. The vent may allow for adequate flow for sterilization and/or drying.

A computer-assisted teleoperated surgical system includes one or more manipulator devices and other components. A manipulator device includes a first link, a second link coupled to a distal end of the first link, a third link coupled to the second link, and an instrument actuator coupled to the third link. A joint that couples the second link to the first link defines a yaw axis. A joint that couples the third link to the second link defines a pitch axis. The instrument actuator defines an insertion axis. The yaw, pitch, and insertion axes are fixed in relation to each other and intersect at a remote center of motion. The instrument actuator may insert a surgical instrument along the insertion axis roll and may roll the surgical instrument around the insertion axis. The proximal end of the first link may be coupled to a repositionable setup structure, which may optionally be mechanically grounded to an operating room table. A user control unit includes a processor that acts as a controller, and user inputs at the user control unit teleoperated the manipulator device via the controller.
