Patent number: 10959759Abstract: A posterior vertebral plating system comprising a plate and a plurality of attachment members. The plate has a plurality of holes extending through the plate from an upper surface to a lower surface, and the plate is configured to extend along the posterior side of at least two vertebrae adjacent at least one boney structure of each of the vertebrae. The holes are spaced in such a way that a first plurality of holes is positionable over a boney structure of a first vertebra to define a plurality of fixation points to the first vertebra and a second plurality of holes is positionable over boney structure of a second vertebra to define a plurality of fixation points to the second vertebra. The attachment members are insertable through the holes of the plate and into the boney structure of a corresponding vertebra to fix the plate to the vertebra.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2018Date of Patent: March 30, 2021Assignee: DePuy Synthesis Products, Inc.Inventors: Albert A. Montello, Hyun W. Bae, William L. Strausbaugh, Christopher M. Bonner, William P. McDonough, David K. Koch, Jordan N. Milford

Patent number: 7981062Abstract: Mechanically activated objects or devices for use in treating degenerative retinal diseases are provided. Such devices apply mechanical forces to tissues of an eye to effectuate treatment and are configured for chronic implantation (thereby applying chronic stimulation/irritation) in or on the eye. The devices may be configured for contact with a retina of the eye, preferably positioned in a subretinal space. Various embodiments comprise a moving member configured for chronic contact with at least a portion of the eye, which moving member is activated by an actuator. In some embodiments, the actuator may be distally located relative to the moving member. Alternatively, the moving member may be supported by a body member that, optionally, also supports the actuator.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2009Date of Patent: July 19, 2011Assignee: IMI Intelligent Medical Implants AGInventors: Alan Y. Chow, George Y. McLean, Vincent Y. Chow, Jay Cech, Christopher M. Bonner, Vladimir Gelfandbein
