Abstract: Tracking constellations for use with surgical instruments, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a tracking constellation includes (i) a support, (ii) a plurality of first standoffs extending from the support to a first height, and (iii) a plurality of second standoffs extending from the support to a second height different than the first height. The tracking constellation can further include a plurality of markers mounted to corresponding ones of the first standoffs or the second standoffs. The markers can lay in a common plane. The support can extend at a generally orthogonal angle to an instrument when the tracking constellation is coupled to the instrument such that the common plane is angled relative to the instrument.

Abstract: Clamp devices for use with rotatable medical tools and associated methods and systems are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a clamp device includes a body having a first side portion and a second side portion. The clamp device can further include a first arm pivotably coupled to the first side portion of the body, and a second arm pivotably coupled to the second side portion of the body. The first arm can further include a first roller rotatably coupled to the first arm, and the second arm can further include a second roller rotatably coupled to the second arm. The first and second arms can be operably coupled to an actuation mechanism that is configured to pivot the first and second arms relative to the body of the clamp device to, for example, clamp a medical tool between the first and second rollers.

Abstract: A prosthesis system includes a reconfigurable socket. The socket changes configurations to adjust the socket fit. The socket includes a socket main body with a window and a panel positioned in the window. The panel and the socket main body cooperate to define a cavity for receiving a residual limb. A lacing system is coupled to both the socket main body and the panel and moves the panel with respect to the socket main body to adjust a volume of the cavity. A tensioning mechanism holds the lacing system to position the adjustment panel. The prosthesis system also allows for the escape of moisture from within the cavity.

Abstract: An orthosis includes a belt assembly, an energy storage apparatus, and an articulatable leg frame. The belt assembly is configured to be secured to a user's body. The energy storage apparatus is coupled to the belt assembly and includes a pretension adjustment device and an exotendon. The articulatable leg frame is coupleable to the belt assembly. The energy storage apparatus helps move the user's leg which is coupled to the leg frame.
