  • Patent number: 11090488
    Abstract: The device (1) for the treatment of joint instability and dyskinesia comprises: an inertial sensor (11, 12) for detecting the movements of a limb (2) of a person, adapted to produce movement signals; an electrostimulation element (14) that can be positioned at a predetermined point of the patient's body so as to electrically stimulate muscles involved in the movement of the limb (2); a waveform generator (15) for supplying the electrostimulation element (14); and a processing means (4) connected to the inertial sensor (11, 12) and to the generator (15), comprising: a position module (41) configured to determine positions of the limb (2) on the basis of the movement signals; and a stimulation module (42) configured to produce stimulation signals adapted to control the operation of the generator (15), on the basis of one or more positions of the limb (2) determined by the position module (41).

  • Patent number: 10335135
    Abstract: A fixing device for suture threads to be inserted into a bone tissue comprises: a first portion (11) provided with at least a first eyelet (10), slot or eye, through which at least a first suture thread (4) can be threaded; at least a second portion (12) destined to be coupled stably in a transosseus seating or hole (5) afforded in a cortical part thereof. The second portion (12) is elastically deformable in order to enable effective coupling to the seating or hole (5).

  • Patent number: 10231726
    Abstract: The invention concerns a perfected device for the transosseous insertion of suture threads. This device comprises a main body (1) supporting a protruding cannula (3) provided with an active end (30); the device comprises a flexible threadlike element (4), on which there are fashioned a sharp tip (40) and an opening (41) that serves for the threading of at least one suture thread (5), said element (4) being housed in a coaxially sliding manner inside said cannula (3) and, on command, exiting from the active end (30) of the cannula, assuming a curved position; the device comprises first means for producing the coaxial movement of the threadlike element (4) in the two directions with respect to the cannula (3) and second means for producing a coaxial movement of the threadlike element in the exiting direction from the cannula (3); for a short tract, the movement produced by the second means is disengaged from the advancement of the threadlike element produced by the first means.

  • Patent number: 9808239
    Abstract: A device for the transosseous insertion of suture threads comprises: —a main body (1), equipped with a grip (2), supporting a protruding cannula (3) provided with an active end (30); —a flexible thread-like element (4) which is housed in a coaxially sliding manner inside the cannula (3) and is suitable, on command, for exiting from the active end (30) of the cannula (3). The thread-like element (4) is made of a super-elastic, shape-memory material and thus has the property of freely assuming, at least in an adequate temperature range for which its operative use is foreseen, a natural and predetermined curved form at least in a determined portion of the terminal part thereof. Means are provided for producing the coaxial movement of the thread-like element (4) in the two directions relative to the cannula (3).
