  • Publication number: 20250145356
    Abstract: A system includes an oral care device, an oral receptacle, and a package. The oral care device includes a first portion and a second portion. The package includes a first layer and a second layer. The second layer is removably coupled to the first layer. The second layer includes a brush head section, a receptacle section, and a plurality of axially stacked folds. The brush head section cooperates with the first layer to enclose the first portion. The receptacle section cooperates with the first layer to enclose the oral receptacle. The axially stacked folds are disposed between the brush head section and the receptacle section and cooperate with the first layer to enclose the second portion.

  • Publication number: 20250109762
    Abstract: An apparatus can include a coupler for coupling a robotic arm to a surgical table having a table top on which a patient can be disposed. The coupler can include a first portion configured to couple to a surgical table and a second portion configured to couple to a robotic arm. The second portion may include a post that may translate into the first portion. The first portion may comprise a locking mechanism having one or more stages to constrain movement of the second portion relative to the first portion in six degrees of freedom. The coupler can thus provide secure coupling of the robotic arm to the surgical table.

  • Publication number: 20250072593
    Abstract: An oral care system includes a first package, a second package, and a container. The first package has a first identifier associated with a first time of day. The first package contains a first unit dose suction brush. The first unit dose suction brush includes a first handle, a first cleaning head, and a first vacuum port. The first handle has a first brush first end and a first brush second end opposite the first brush first end, the first handle having a first suction channel extending from the first brush first end to the first brush second end. The first cleaning head is connected to the first brush first end. The first cleaning head includes a first suction port and a plurality of first bristles arranged in a first pattern surrounding the first suction port. The first vacuum port is located at the first brush second end.

  • Publication number: 20250049464
    Abstract: An ultrasonic instrument includes a body, an actuation assembly, a shaft assembly, and an end effector. The actuation assembly includes an activation member that is operable to move in a first direction to select a mode of operation. The shaft assembly extends distally from the body and includes an acoustic waveguide. The end effector includes an ultrasonic blade that is in acoustic communication with the acoustic waveguide. The activation member is operable to move in a second direction to activate the end effector in a mode of operation selected by movement of the activation member in the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20250041125
    Abstract: A wedge cushioning system for supporting a lower limb of a patient includes a wedge assembly. The wedge assembly includes a wedge pad configured to cushion the lower limb of the patient, a first wedge wing pivotably coupled to a first side of the wedge pad and selectively pivotable between a first lowered position and a first raised position, a second wedge wing pivotably coupled to a second side of the wedge pad and selectively pivotably between a second lowered position and a second raised position independent of the first wedge wing, and a strap configured to be releasably coupled between the first wedge wing and the second wedge wing. The second side of the wedge pad is opposite the first side of the wedge pad.

  • Publication number: 20250034388
    Abstract: A multi-phase latex particle composition includes at least two different heteropolymers defining at least two different phases. The heteropolymers are selected such that a cumulative percentage of i) any heteropolymers including less than 30% of a C6 or greater (meth)acrylate monomer ranges from about 20 wt % to about 80 wt % of a total particle composition weight; ii) any heteropolymers having a glass transition temperature (Tg) ranging from 15° C. to 75° C. ranges from about 20 wt % to about 70 wt % of the total weight; iii) any heteropolymers having a Tg greater than 75° C. is greater than 30 wt % of the total weight; iv) any heteropolymers having a Tg less than 15° C. is less than 20 wt % of the total weight; and v) an aromatic group monomer is less than 10 wt % of the total weight.
