Attachment for a Powered Surgical Tool
A front end attachment for a powered surgical tool. The front end attachment includes a nose. The nose defines a bore for receiving a shaft of a cutting accessory that is connectable to a motor of the powered surgical tool. The nose also defines a groove separate from the bore. The groove is formed in an outer surface of the nose and extends longitudinally along the nose. An irrigation fitting includes a tube that is seated in the groove of the nose. The irrigation fitting is adapted to receive an irrigating fluid. A heat shrink tubing is disposed over the outer surface of the nose to extend over and enclose the groove. The heat shrink tubing secures the irrigation fitting to the nose.
Ultrasonic osteotome bit
An ultrasonic osteotome bit, comprising a bit body (1), a bit bar (2) and a bit tip (3). One end of the bit bar (2) is connected to the bit tip (3), and the other end of the bit bar (2) is connected to the bit body (1). The bit tip (3) is of a prism or substantially prism structure with the cross section of a polygonal structure, and the bit tip (2) has at least two cutting faces of different cutting widths. The bit is provided with a liquid flow hole (41), and the bit tip (3) is provided with a knurled structure that extends from a foremost end face of the bit tip (3) towards the bit bar (2) to form a file-type bit. The ultrasonic osteotome bit not only meets the requirement of a surgeon for the accuracy of bone cutting width, but also saves the time required to replace bits of different widths, thereby improving the surgical efficiency.
MEDICAL HANDPIECE HAVING ATTACHABLE SPRAY, SUCTION AND DRILL UNITS
Provided is a medical handpiece having liquid spray and suction functions and capable of being replaced with a drill. The medical handpiece includes a handpiece body having an accommodation space therein, a spray unit receiving liquid from an outside to spray the liquid onto a target to be treated, a pump unit transmitting air pressure to the spray unit to increase a spray speed of liquid sprayed by the spray unit, a drive unit converting a rotary motion into a reciprocating motion to transmit power to the pump unit, and a suction unit sucking liquid and foreign matter from the target to be treated.
MEDICAL CUTTING DEVICES WITH A STATIC CASING AND A BLADE WORKING BODY OF GREATER WIDTH AND RELATED METHODS
Medical devices and related methods for transforming bone, other tissue, or other material are disclosed herein. According to an aspect, a cutting device includes a static casing having a width of substantially a first distance. The cutting device also includes a blade working body including a first end and a second end. The first end is configured to operatively connect to a source of movement. The second end includes a cutting component. The blade working body has a width of substantially a second distance, wherein the second distance is greater than the first distance.
ULTRASONIC SURGICAL INSTRUMENT WITH COOLING CONDUIT
An apparatus includes a body assembly, an acoustic waveguide, an ultrasonic blade, and a liquid dispensing feature. The ultrasonic blade is positioned distally relative to the body assembly. The ultrasonic blade is in acoustic communication with the acoustic waveguide. The liquid dispensing feature is positioned distally relative to the body assembly. The liquid dispensing feature is positioned adjacent to the ultrasonic blade. The liquid dispensing feature is configured to deliver a flow of cooling liquid to the ultrasonic blade.
Drilling device for acromioplasty
Provided is a drilling device for acromioplasty including an outer tube assembly including including a head section having a rotor having a first power transmission unit having a hollow structure and configured to receive power and a twist drill coupled to a lower end of the rotor with a hollow structure and provided with a suction port formed on an outer circumferential surface thereof, and an outer tube having a tubular shape and having one end to which the head section is coupled, an inner tube assembly including an inner tube having a hollow structure and rotatably inserted into the outer tube assembly, a second power transmission unit having a hollow structure and formed at one end of the inner tube to transmit power to the first power transmission unit, a rotation transmission unit formed at the other end of the inner tube and configured to receive a rotational force from the outside, and a discharge section disposed between the rotation transmission unit and the inner tube to discharge ground bone wastes to the outside, and a connecting pipe configured to connect the twist drill and the inner tube such that the ground bone wastes is discharged to the outside.
Devices and methods for preparing an intervertebral workspace
Tools adapted for spinal distraction are provided. More specifically, tools having an elongate shaft connected to a head portion are provided for imparting a force for displacing vertebral bodies. The tools may comprise features, such as textured surfaces or the ability to transmit pressure, for cleaning and preparing a spinal disc space for subsequent tools and procedures. A plurality or set of distraction tools is contemplated where the plurality of tools is made up of tools having various distinctions from one another. Such distinctions may be in the way of length, width, angle, and other geometric features or may comprise differences in materials or additional features.
DRILLING DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS
Devices, systems, and methods for drilling an anatomical element are provided. A drill bit may comprise a coaxial hollow shaft in communication with a plurality of apertures disposed on a surface of the drill bit. A fluid inlet may be in fluid communication with the coaxial hollow shaft via a selectively openable valve. The fluid inlet may be configured to receive pressurized fluid. When the valve is opened, the pressurized fluid may be released into the coaxial hollow shaft, and when at least one of the plurality of apertures is not blocked, the pressurized fluid may be released through the at least one aperture of the plurality of apertures.
BONE SURGERY GRINDING EXPERIMENTAL DEVICE CAPABLE OF COOLING AND ELECTROSTATIC ATOMIZATION FILM FORMATION
A bone surgery grinding experimental device capable of cooling and electrostatic atomization film formation, including a linear three-axis platform capable of moving front, back, left, right, up and down, an electric spindle and a workpiece fixing device, wherein linear three-axis platform includes an X axis structure capable of carrying out left and right movement, Y axis structure capable of carrying out front and back movement and Z axis structure capable of carrying out up and down movement, the workpiece fixing device is fixed on the Y axis structure, and electric spindle is fixed on the Z axis structure and is installed at workpiece fixing device's upper end; a grinding head is installed at the electric spindle's lower end, a grinding cooling device is arranged inside a grinding head handle or on the grinding head's surrounding, and an electrostatic atomization film formation device is arranged on the grinding head's surrounding.
Surgical Instrument System and Irrigation Sleeve
