11696962 · 2023-07-11 ·

A device is provided for enclosing an extremity of a patient for container efficient wound cleaning and for integrating draping prior to surgery. A loose-fitting flexible container with a flexible seal is provided for enclosing the extremity and treating the extremity in a controlled fashion to reduce or eliminate spillage and unwanted dispersion of antiseptic solution. Sealed to the flexible container is a vacuum packed, folded and rolled sterile surgical drape. The combination of a flexible container and a sterile pre-positioned surgical drape in a single device provides the advantage of controlled decontamination of the skin or wound while simultaneously providing the advantage of pre-positioning a surgical drape. The use of the device also provides the advantages of reduced operating room fires and biohazard dispersion risk and reduced cost by reduction of total operating room time per procedure.

Method for placing implant using robotic system
09795394 · 2017-10-24 · ·

A method for placing an implant on a patient in a robotic surgical procedure using a robotic system. During the robotic surgical procedure, a navigation system tracks the patient. The navigation system also provides information to the robotic system to guide movement of a cutting tool to remove material from the patient such that a cut surface is created to receive the implant. The implant is then robotically placed on the cut surface.

Surgical drape configured for peripherally inserted central catheter procedures

A medical drape (100) includes an upper portion (101) and a lower portion (102). The upper portion (101) can be pellucid, while the lower portion (102) can be opaque. To facilitate central catheter insertion, the upper portion (101) can define one or more apertures (104,105) through which a central line may be inserted. A tourniquet (401) may be integrated with the drape, as can one or more tool-less removal features (108,109).

EXTREMITY SUPPORT AND IRRIGATION DEVICE AND METHOD OF USE
20170281446 · 2017-10-05 ·

An apparatus for supporting an extremity during tissue irrigation and debridement and containing and capturing fluid and tissue debris resulting therefrom includes an extremity-supporting base and barrier shroud. The apparatus can be used to control drainage of fluid and tissue debris during irrigation and debridement. The apparatus supports and encloses a patient extremity, such as an arm or a leg. The base has a length, proximal end (i.e., nearest the patient's body), and distal end (i.e., farthest from the patient's body). The base may comprise an open-cell foam that is non-collapsible to provide a support surface with a fixed length. The shroud has a top portion, bottom portion, and shroud drainage opening. The shroud can be selectively moveable between a first position in which the support surface is unobstructed to facilitate placement of an extremity thereon and a second position in the shroud at least partially encloses the extremity.

FEMORAL DRAPE
20170281289 · 2017-10-05 ·

A sterile femoral drape intended to be placed over a surgical patient lying on an operating table to isolate the patient during the surgical procedure, the drape comprising a top sheet of bio-impermeable material of a length and width greater than a conventional operating table such that the top sheet fully encompasses the patient and drapes over the lateral side edges and the bottom (foot) edge of the table. Femoral access holes located proximate to the patient's groin are provided to allow access to the patient's femoral artery during heart catheterizations or other surgical procedures. The drape comprises left and right arm pockets formed underneath the bio-impermeable sheet into which the patient's respective left and right arms are inserted. The patient's arms being positioned within and supported within the arm pockets, fully isolates the patient's arms and hands from the femoral access site, thereby assuring that the patient's hands do not contaminate the femoral access site.
