Abstract: Aspects of the invention are drawn to a pelvic internal fixation system and methods of using the same to fix one hemipelvis to the other.

Abstract: The presently disclosed invention relates to devices and methods for conducting bone surgery on an animal using a bone surgery tool comprising a base, a fixed arm fixed to the base, the fixed arm including a shoulder and a jaw, a sliding arm releasably fixable to the base, the sliding arm including a head that receives an implant and a cartridge in a slot, the method comprising hooking the bone with the jaw, moving the head toward the jaw capturing the bone, accessing the bone with a drill through cartridge bores in the cartridge, and drilling holes, accessing the bone with a self-shearing screw attached to a screw driver through cartridge bores in the cartridge, and attaching the implant to the bone, and moving the head away from the jaw releasing the bone.

Abstract: A measurement device for measuring a temperature prevailing inside a container is disclosed. The measurement device comprises: a process connector including a connector body and a fastener configured to be mounted onto a corresponding counterpart surrounding an opening of the container; a measurement unit secured in an opening of the process connector such that a front surface of the measurement unit is facing into the container when the measurement device is mounted on the container; the measurement unit including or consisting of: a heat pipe and a temperature sensor; the heat pipe having two thermally conductive interfaces including a front interface exposable to the temperature to be measured and a second interface in thermal contact with the temperature sensor; and a thermal insulation surrounding the heat pipe and the temperature sensor.

Abstract: A method of treating one of fractures and disfunctions of a pelvic ring of a patient comprising scanning a patient with a transdermal scan, determining, via a machine, from the scan an optimal range of angles of entry and sizes of screw to insert into the patient, communicating the optimal range to a surgeon, and inserting the screw into the patient.

Abstract: An automatic door handle/panel sanitizer dispensing assembly comprising a frame, a control unit including a processor, an actuator assembly controlled by the processor, the actuator assembly includes one of a pump and a valve, a first sensor operatively connected to the processor, a power storage unit powering the control unit, the actuator assembly, and the first sensor, a first nozzle and a second nozzle, both fluidly connected to the actuator assembly, a container coupled to the frame, for storing disinfectant, a threaded hook to hang the assembly onto the door handle, a tray having an arcuate shape and being arranged abutting a roof of the frame and being supported by the frame, a plurality of threaded tray holes extending through the tray arranged proximate to a rear end of the tray.

Abstract: A soft tissue protector comprising a hollow body, a plurality of jaws at an anterior end of the hollow body forming a conical tip, an insert that is inserted inside of a posterior end of the hollow body, at least one handle, and a sliding lock on the handle that retains the insert inside of the hollow body.

Abstract: A suture anchor comprising a footing with a base defining a first, a second, a third, and a fourth base suture passage, a first and a second primary suture passage aligned with a primary level and fluidly connected to the first and second base suture passage for a first suture, a suture channel aligned with a secondary level spaced further from the base than the primary level, and fluidly connected to the third and fourth base suture passages a second suture, and a suture course for the first suture along a tertiary level defined by a top that is spaced further from the base than the secondary level.
