COMPOSITE PACKAGING FACILITATING AN ASEPTIC PRESENTATION OF MEDICINAL PRODUCTS
A sterile packaging for sterile medicinal products, in particular implants, forms at least one, or in case of a multiple sterile packaging, at least one first sterile barrier and an outer second sterile barrier, separate and independent from the first sterile barrier, and which is accommodated in an outer packaging. The outer packaging is made of a composite material that includes cardboard and at least one coating or film, and is designed and intended to form the second sterile barrier of the sterile packaging.
MODULAR SCREW CADDY SYSTEM WITH DESCRIPTIVE LABELS
A containment case assembly, including a tray and closing lid, comprises an upper frame that is configured to support from one to a plurality of removable screw decks is described. The screw decks have a column of first openings into which removable silicon plugs or inserts are positioned. The removable inserts include indicia or labels that indicate to a user the size of a surgical screw that is positioned in a row of second openings that are aligned in the screw deck immediately adjacent to one of the first openings. The upper frame of the containment case also has an inlet provided with a series of adjacent indicia or labels that are spaced at regular millimeter intervals for use in verifying the length of a surgical screw. The upper frame is further provided with a series of regularly spaced openings that have progressively larger sizes. These openings enable a user to verify the diameter of a surgical screw.
MODULAR PACKAGING STRUCTURES
Described herein are modular packaging structures and corresponding packaging methods. Packaging structures incorporating features of the present disclosure can comprise a base structure, for example a tray comprising a volume, and a backer card, which can be configured to receive one or more objects to be packaged. Differently designed backer cards can be utilized with the same base structure allowing for a modular packaging structure and preventing the need for specialized and specifically tooled trays for different products. The backer cards may interact with the base structures to form multiple compartments. These modular packaging structures allow for a great level of customizability and help mitigate the cost and labor typically required in utilizing multiple specifically tooled thermoform trays.
Medical drape and methods of covering equipment with medical drapes
A sterile drape is provided to cover medical equipment. The drape may include an expandable element to open the open end of the drape. A sheath may also be provided to cover the sheath prior to use. The drape may also be held in a container, which may be coupled to the equipment. Furthermore, the drape may include one or more partially deployed positions in which the drape is partially deployed yet the sterile surface of the drape remains unexposed so that the drape may be partially deployed by non-sterile personnel and stored in a non-sterile area.
Disposable kit
Arrangements described herein relate to systems, apparatuses, and methods for a disposable kit containing medical items configured for a medical device including a head cradle to support a head of a subject, the disposable kit includes a container that encloses a head cradle pad configured to be affixed to the head cradle, at least one fiducial marker configured to be disposed on a location at the head of the subject, and at least one enclosure configured to cover a portion of the medical device.
Multi-purpose rack for organizing containers/packages of dental implant platforms for each tooth
A rack organizes dental implant containers both when housed within intermediate packaging and when removed therefrom, being arranged according to a tooth intended to receive the dental implant within the container. The rack includes: upper and lower flanges, and a connecting flange that separates the upper and lower flanges. The upper flange and connecting flange are each formed with a plurality of openings shaped to receive the dental implant container therethrough when the container is removed from the intermediate packaging. The openings may each have first and second slots to accommodate receiving a container therethrough when housed within intermediate packaging. The lower flange may removably couple to a base with a plurality of recesses, being usable to assist with restorative procedures relating to fixing dental implants, and may be removably coupled to the lower flange with the plurality recesses aligned with a plurality of openings in the lower flange.
CONTAINER AND LID WITH MULTIPLE SEALS THEREBETWEEN AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING THE SAME
A moisture tight container includes a container body and a lid preferably linked to the body by a hinge. The body and lid include at least a first seal and a second seal in series to provide a moisture tight seal between the body and the lid. The first seal includes mating of thermoplastic-to-thermoplastic sealing surfaces of the body and lid respectively. The second seal includes mating of thermoplastic-to-elastomeric sealing surfaces of the body and lid, respectively, or of the lid and body, respectively.
Carrying case for sterile objects
A carrying case includes an outer container with a plurality of side walls extending from a lower support. An outer lid is at least partially removably coupled with the plurality of side walls and positioned opposite the lower support. Each of the side walls, lower support and outer lid have an inner surface defining an interior space within the case. A plurality of first attachment means extend from at least two opposing side wall inner surfaces. A removable inner tray includes a plurality of inserts configured to fit within the interior space of the outer container. A plurality of second attachment means extend from the plurality of inserts and are positioned to correspond with locations of the first attachment means, such that the first and second attachment means are engaged when the inner tray is positioned within the interior space of the case.
DISPOSABLE KIT
Arrangements described herein relate to systems, apparatuses, and methods for a disposable kit containing medical items configured for a medical device including a head cradle to support a head of a subject, the disposable kit includes a container that encloses a head cradle pad configured to be affixed to the head cradle, at least one fiducial marker configured to be disposed on a location at the head of the subject, and at least one enclosure configured to cover a portion of the medical device.
ORTHOPEDIC STAPLE AND RELATED INSTRUMENTS
Novel orthopedic staples and related instruments are disclosed. An instrument is an orthopedic drill guide assembly that includes a first arm and a second arm that are retractably connected to the distal end of the instrument's outer housing, where the proximal ends of the arms are retractably connected to the distal end of the outer housing and configured to move in a retractable motion that changes the spacing between the first drill guide sleeve and the second drill guide sleeve, where the proximal end of the outer housing is configured for controlling the retractable motion of the first and second arms.
