A dispensing system includes a device having a body extending along a longitudinal axis between opposite proximal and distal ends. The body includes a proximal chamber, a distal chamber and a wall between the chambers. The body includes a first port in communication with the proximal chamber and a second port in communication with the distal chamber. A shaft is movably positioned within the body. The shaft extending through the wall and comprising a proximal plunger positioned within the proximal chamber and a distal plunger positioned within the distal chamber. Wherein pressure introduced through an opening in the proximal end moves the shaft such that the proximal plunger moves a material within the proximal chamber out of the first port and the distal plunger moves a material within the distal chamber out of the second port. Kits and methods of use are disclosed.

A bone material dispensing apparatus for preparing, mixing, and dispensing bone material into a foldable container is provided. In some embodiments, the dispensing apparatus comprises a tray and a foldable container. The tray includes a mixing surface, a dispensing surface and a means to measure the amount of material to be dispensed. A kit including a tray, a foldable container, and a spatula are also provided. A method of using the dispensing apparatus to deliver the bone material to a bone detect is also provided.

A device for hydrating particulate bone material is provided. The device comprises a tubular member having an interior surface and an exterior surface. The interior surface is configured to receive the particulate bone material and a hydration fluid. The exterior surface has a plurality of pores configured to allow the hydration fluid to flow into the interior surface of the tubular member and hydrate the particulate bone material. The plurality of pores are smaller in size than the particulate bone material. Methods of dispensing particulate the bone material are also provided.

One aspect relates to a bone cement applicator having a cartridge with an interior, a cartridge head with a delivery opening, a mixing member which is movable in the interior with a mixing rod. A delivery plunger is arranged in the cartridge and is mounted in the interior and is pressable in the direction of the delivery opening. The delivery plunger rests with an outer cylindrical circumferential surface against an inner wall of the cartridge. A clamping element is arranged on the inner wall of the cartridge in the region of a back side of the interior. The clamping element projects out of the inner wall of the cartridge. The cylindrical circumferential surface of the delivery plunger is resiliently deformable by the clamping element in the direction of a central cylinder axis, such that the delivery plunger is clampable in place with the at least one clamping element on the back side of the cartridge.

An apparatus for mixing bone cement for use in orthopedic surgeries includes a mixing region and an agitator for mixing the cement ingredients. The apparatus can be operated or acted on by a power tool for the mixing of the bone cement. The agitator may act as a generator to charge embedded electronics of the apparatus such as with a magnet in the agitator that interacts with a wire coil outside of the agitator. A timer of the apparatus may be started by a sensor of the apparatus, in response to a mechanical torque value, or by a magnetic sensor that can sense a start state of the apparatus. When the timer is complete, a cue by the apparatus signals to the user that the mixed cement is ready and able to be applied.

A dispensing system includes a main body having a base and an extension extending from the base. The extension includes an inner surface defining a passageway. The main body includes an opening that extends through the extension. The opening is in communication with the passageway. A first plunger is configured to be positioned within the passageway. The first plunger includes a lumen extending through and between opposite proximal and distal end surfaces of the first plunger. A second plunger is configured to be positioned within the lumen. Kits and methods are disclosed.

Device for the mixing of polymethylmethacrylate bone cement and for storing a monomer liquid and a cement powder as starting components of the bone cement, comprising a cartridge having an internal space closed on one side by a mobile dispensing plunger; a monomer container for a monomer liquid and/or a connector for attachment of a monomer container which can be opened in the device so that the monomer liquid flows from the monomer container into the device; and a connecting conduit through which the monomer liquid can be guided into the internal space of the cartridge; having a pumping plunger that can be shifted axially in the hollow cylinder arranged in the hollow cylinder, which can be used to push monomer liquid from the hollow cylinder through the connecting conduit into the internal space of the cartridge by actuating the pumping plunger.

A device for providing a bone cement dough from two starting components, comprising a hollow cylindrical cartridge with an interior space, wherein a bone cement powder as the first starting component is stored in a proximal part of the interior space, and at least two pouches containing a monomer liquid as a second starting component are stored in a distal part of the interior space, wherein a dispensing plunger axially movable in the interior space is arranged between the bone cement powder and the at least two pouches, and a delivery plunger axially movable in the interior space is arranged on a side of the at least two pouches that is axially opposite the dispensing plunger, wherein the proximal part and the distal part of the interior space are fluidically connected to one another via a conduit means.

The present invention relates to a primer composition that may be applied to tissue in order to increase bond strength between the tissue and a patch, filler or a supporting material. The primer comprises a dithiol component and an allyl containing component together with a photo initiator.

An apparatus for providing a liquid component as a first starting component of a bone cement dough from two starting components, comprising a receptacle in which a tank containing the liquid component can be stored, an opening means for opening the tank, a reservoir, fluidically connected to the receptacle, for receiving the liquid component from the tank, at least one port for fluidically connecting the apparatus to a syringe in which a powder component can be stored as a second starting component of the bone cement dough, and at least one conducting means which fluidically connects the reservoir and the at least one port to one another.
