Publication number: 20220054220Abstract: A support mechanism for a medical device may include an adjustable support that includes a plurality of elongate members movable relative to one another. The support mechanism may also include a bracket coupled to the adjustable support. The bracket may be adapted to be coupled to a first medical device that extends along a longitudinal axis. The support mechanism may also include an instrument holder that extends along a central axis. The instrument holder may be movably coupled to the bracket and adapted to be coupled to a second medical device. The bracket and the instrument holder may be oriented such that central axis of the instrument holder intersects the longitudinal axis at an angle.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2021Publication date: February 24, 2022Applicant: Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc.Inventors: Gary KAPPEL, Barry WEITZNER, Paul SMITH, Erin DALY

Patent number: 9119676Abstract: Various methods and devices are provided for bone screw fixation. In one exemplary embodiment, the methods and devices provide a bone fixation device that includes a receiving head having a recess adapted to seat a spinal rod therein and a shank extending distally from the receiving head. An anti-rotation mechanism can be located distal of a distal end of the receiving head and around a proximal portion of the shank, and it can be configured to interact with bone to prevent rotation of at least a portion of the bone fixation device relative to the bone.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2012Date of Patent: September 1, 2015Assignee: DePuy Synthes Products, Inc.Inventors: Erin Daly, Charles M.
