  • Publication number: 20250099237
    Abstract: A prosthetic heart valve for the treatment of structural heart disease wherein the prosthetic heart valve includes an expandable frame that is formed of a rhenium containing metal alloy. The novel geometry of the expandable frame in combination with the frame being partially or fully formed of the rhenium containing alloy enables the formation of a frame that a) has an open cell geometry in the frame of the prosthetic heart valve that can be used to reduce delivery system size, b) has high radial strength, c) has improved restoration of the physiologic EOA, d) has lower recoil, e) has no foreshortening, f) allows for proper placement of the bioprosthetic valve in relation to the native commissures of the valve, h) has symmetrical and cylindrical expansion of the prosthetic valve resulting in lower rates of leaflet thrombosis and structural valve deterioration, and i) prevents allergic response and restenosis associated with nickel content.

  • Patent number: 12193945
    Abstract: An example expandable interbody device can include a structural body having an upper endplate and a lower endplate. The device can include at least one wedge block and at least one linkage block arranged between the upper and lower endplates. The linkage block can include a plurality of linkages and a shear pin disposed at a respective proximal end of each of the linkages. The device can include a drive screw extending through the wedge and linkage blocks. The drive screw can be configured to rotate and drive the wedge block to expand the upper and lower endplates of the structural body from the closed position to an intermediate position. Additionally, the drive screw can be further configured to rotate and drive the linkage block to expand the upper and lower endplates of the structural body from the intermediate position to an open position.

  • Patent number: 12064146
    Abstract: Various implementations include an anterior cervical fixation plate for fixating portions of a cervical spine to facilitate bone fusion. The plate includes a first portion, a second portion, and a bridge. A first surface of the first portion and a first surface of the second portion each define two fastener openings extending from the first surface of the first portion to a second surface of the first portion. The first side and the second side of the centrally located bridge each extend from the second side of the first portion to the first side of the second portion. The second side of the first portion, the first side of the second portion, and the first side of the bridge define a first window. The second side of the first portion, the first side of the second portion, and the second side of the bridge define a second window.

  • Patent number: 12064148
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a surgical instrument configured for attachment to a surgical device. The surgical instrument includes a distal region having a curved internal surface configured to mate with a curved external surface of the surgical device, a rotational locking feature that limits rotational movement of the instrument with respect to the surgical device, and an axial locking feature that limits axial movement of the blade with respect to the surgical device. Methods of using the surgical instruments include sliding the axial locking feature past a corresponding axial locking feature on the surgical device, locking the axial locking feature to the corresponding axial locking feature on the surgical device (thereby limiting axial movement of the elongated blade with respect to the surgical device), adjusting the position of the surgical device using the surgical instrument, and disengaging the axial locking feature (for example, by using a disengagement instrument).

  • Patent number: 11957600
    Abstract: Various implementations include an implant. The implant includes a body defining a central opening. The body has a first surface and a second surface spaced apart and opposite from the first surface. The second surface at least partially defines the central opening. The first surface defines a plurality of openings including a first opening and a second opening. Each of the openings extends along an axis from the first surface to the second surface. The first opening and the second opening at least partially overlap at the first surface, and the axis of the first opening is transverse to the axis of the second opening.
