  • Patent number: 11771459
    Abstract: An impact or extension handle for a needle assembly such as a jamshidi needle can include an attachment portion and a handle portion. The impact or extension handle can also include an impact strikeplate. The attachment portion is configured to couple to the jamshidi needle. A user can use the impact or extension handle to manipulate the position or angle of the needle assembly. A user can tap a mallet or similar instrument on the impact strikeplate to drive the needle assembly into a target location in a patient's body. The impact or extension handle can allow the user to hold his or her hands out of the way of equipment used during the procedure and away from potentially harmful radiation from imaging equipment used during the procedure.

  • Publication number: 20230053789
    Abstract: A particle comprising hydroxyapatite, ?-tricalcium phosphate, ?-tricalcium phosphate, and/or bioactive glass is provided. The particle can be useful in bone graft compositions further comprising a carrier. The composition can include a quadphasic particle having hydroxyapatite, ?-tricalcium phosphate, ?-tricalcium phosphate, bioactive glass, and a carrier. The particle can have a size in the range of 50 microns to 2.5 mm. A method of repairing a bone defect is also provided. The method can include a step of applying the bone graft composition to a subject having the bone defect, such as a spinal bone defect. The subject receiving the bone graft composition can be a mammal, namely a human, pet, or domestic animal.

  • Patent number: 11583416
    Abstract: A bone graft delivery system can include an elongate tube and a handle having a trigger and a ratcheting mechanism. The trigger is actuated to deliver bone graft material through the tube. The bone graft delivery system can further include a distal tip at a distal end of the tube. The tip has one or more openings to deliver the bone graft material to a desired location and includes a surface suitable to act as a rasp for decorticating bone. A method for delivering bone graft material to a desired surgical location includes providing a bone graft delivery device, positioning the device adjacent the surgical location, decorticating bone, and delivering bone graft material to the surgical location.

  • Patent number: 10842448
    Abstract: The devices and methods described herein refer to a guidewire, sometimes referred to as a K-wire, for use during varying orthopedic surgeries. The guidewire allows for the measurement of objects and distances inside the patient's body when used in tandem with x-ray or fluoroscopy imaging. Also, the devices and methods described herein act as a guide to accurately insert an instrument or implant, in the correct orientation, to the surgical site. The guidewire comprises a measurement segment that comprises one or more markers placed at known distances from the distal end of the guidewire. The markers, when used in tandem with fluoroscopy and/or x-ray imaging, provide users with a reference for measuring objects and distances inside the body. The markers can have many possible designs or configurations such as, but not limited to, visualization windows, grooves, notches, and/or material inserts.
