  • Publication number: 20230072360
    Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus for bone fusion. Bone fusion can be performed using an elongated plate having a top face and a bottom face and defining a plurality of screw apertures therethrough. The elongated plate has a longitudinal dimension between a first and second ends and a lateral dimension between first and second sides. The screw apertures are defined in a generally straight line along the longitudinal dimension of the elongated plate, and three or more of the screw apertures are configured to facilitate different trajectories of bone screws through each of the three or more screw apertures. The screw apertures are configured to facilitate trajectories of bone screws to secure at least three bones to the elongated plate.

  • Publication number: 20210145494
    Abstract: A burr hole cover comprising a central cover, a plurality of arms, and a plurality of struts is described. At least some of the plurality of arms extend from the central cover and define apertures designed to receive surgical screws. Each of the plurality of struts are designed to connect a first portion of the burr hole cover to a second portion of the burr hole cover. The plurality of struts are configured to be selectively removed to provide for adjustable rigidity of one or more portions of the burr hole cover.

  • Publication number: 20190357995
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a medical tool cleaning and/or lubrication system are provided. A cleaning system may include an attachment interface configured to receive one or more medical device tool modules. The attachment interface may include one or more input or output couplings which are configured to connect the attachment interface to a reservoir which provides one or more fluids in an input/output pathway for the circulation of the fluids into the one or more medical device tool modules. The cleaning system may also include one or more fluid reservoirs which contain fluid to be circulated through the one or more medical device tool modules. The cleaning system may further comprise a driver system configured to at least partially actuate components of connected medical device tool modules while the modules are being cleaned.
