Publication number: 20240188971Abstract: Surgical procedures, tools and implants are disclosed for both conventional and reverse shoulder implant surgeries. The improved procedures, tools and implants relate to humeral head resurfacing, humeral head resection for standard implants, humeral head resection for reverse shoulder implants, glenoid resurfacing for standard shoulder implants and glenoid resurfacing for reverse shoulder implants. 3D scans and x-rays are used to develop virtual models of the patient anatomy, identify patient specific landmarks for anchoring guide wire installation blocks, templates and drill guides. 3D scans are also used to design patient specific tools and implants for the shoulder implant procedures and to pre-operatively determine the appropriate inclination and retroversion angles.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2024Publication date: June 13, 2024Applicant: Smith & Nephew, Inc.Inventors: Henry Keith BONIN, Jr., David L. BRUMFIELD, Raymond H. ROBERSON, Jr.

Patent number: 11969193Abstract: An intra-osseous support structure can be used to fixate opposed portions of bone. In some examples, the intra-osseous support structure is positioned in openings formed in adjacent portions of bones. Fasteners are inserted through the bone portions to secure the intra-osseous support structure in the bones. Depending on the application, one or more external bone plates may also be applied to the bone portions. The external bone plate may be in compression while the intra-osseous support structure is in tension under load in situ.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Treace Medical Concepts, Inc.Inventors: David L. Brumfield, Paul Dayton, F. Barry Bays, Joe W. Ferguson

Publication number: 20220039848Abstract: A bone plate can be used to fixate one or more bones. In some examples, the bone plate defines an elongated body having a plurality of fixation holes arrayed at different points along the length of the body. For example, the bone plate may have opposed fixation holes separated by a bridge. The bone plate may be bent or shaped along a central longitudinal axis extending through the elongated body and also twisted around the central longitudinal axis. The bending and twisting can position each fixation hole of the elongated body in a different plane in three-dimensional space.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2021Publication date: February 10, 2022Inventors: Paul Dayton, Daniel J. Hatch, W. Bret Smith, David L. Brumfield
