Abstract: A bone clamp including two or more clamping members configured to clampingly receive a bone therebetween. The bone clamp further includes a basis supporting at least two of the clamping members at a first distance to each other. At least one of the at least two clamping members has a body and is rotatably supported by the basis. The at least one rotatably supported clamping member has a bone engaging structure extending helically along at least a part of a length of its body. The bone engaging structure is configured to engage a side surface of the bone upon rotation of the at least one rotatably supported clamping member. Depending on the direction of the rotation, the rotatably supported clamping member advances along the side surface of the bone either in a downward direction for mounting the bone clamp or in an upward direction for dismounting the bone clamp.

Abstract: Systems and methods for creating a digital twin of an infrastructure component. The digital twin is a computerized, three-dimensional model of the component, typically a pipe, created after manufacture but before installation. The digital twin can be saved on a computer-readable storage medium for later retrieval, and can be loaded into three-dimensional modeling software for manipulation and viewing from various angles and perspectives. The twin is created from a plurality of imaging systems capturing different surfaces or different aspects, whose measurements are mapped to a uniform coordinate system to generate a three-dimensional model. Other data may also be added to or stored with the digital twin, such as manufacturing specifications, photographic data, and current or historical inspection data. The digital twin may be viewed on a mobile device programmed to receive, display, and allow the user to view and manipulate the digital twin.

Abstract: A surgical closure apparatus for facilitating closure of a wound includes an outer member dimensioned for positioning within a wound opening and defining a central longitudinal axis, and having a first longitudinal passage and a second longitudinal passage, a needle assembly at least partially disposed within the first longitudinal passage of the outer member, and a suture configured for at least partially closing the wound opening and extending at least partially through the second longitudinal passage of the outer member. The needle assembly includes a needle drive and a suture needle mounted to the needle drive and coupled to the suture. The suture needle is adapted for rotational movement relative to the central longitudinal axis between an unarmed condition and an armed condition through manipulation of the needle drive. The suture needle is positioned for passage through tissue adjacent the wound opening when in the armed condition.

Abstract: A wound closure device includes a shaft, a needle, and a housing. The needle includes a first leg portion coupled to a distal end of the shaft, a curved portion, and a second leg portion including a needled end portion terminating at a needle tip. The housing includes a first channel slidingly engaged with the elongated body of the shaft and a second channel slidingly engageable with the second leg portion of the needle.

Abstract: A method and device for closing a port site incision after a minimally invasive surgical procedure is performed includes an elongate body and a tool assembly supported on a distal portion of the elongate body. The tool assembly includes a suture needle that is moved between an active position in which a tip of the suture needle is exposed and an active position in which the tip of the needle is received within a shield supported on the elongate body by an actuation member. The actuation member is connected to the suture needle by a linkage that maintains a longitudinal axis of the suture needle parallel to the longitudinal axis of the elongate body as the tool assembly is moved between the active and inactive positions.
