Patent number: 11583267Abstract: A surgical instrument assembly includes a support frame system, and a surgical tool engageable with the support frame system. The support frame system is adapted for providing a surgical tool attachment and articulation locus that is maintained during the course of a surgical procedure to direct a fixed and repeatable delivery path for introduction and manipulation of one or more surgical instruments and implants at a surgical site in or on the patient's anatomy. The delivery path can be substantially curvilinear along an arc that is defined by a radius of curvature and length defined by the surgical tool, and a predetermined range of articulation of the tool at the articulation locus.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2020Date of Patent: February 21, 2023Assignee: JGMG BENGOCHEA, LLCInventors: Javier Garcia-Bengochea, Marc Von Amsberg, Ryan Lewis

Publication number: 20230048807Abstract: A tubular retractor securement frame is disclosed including a mounting bracket, two flexor arms, and a device emplacement oriented to receive and hold in-place a surgical tool. The mounting bracket includes an elastically deformable plate, rails extending about orthogonal from the elastically deformable plate and about parallel to one another, and receptacles facing one another in the rails which are arranged to receive a retractor arm extending from a tubular retractor at a fixed angle. The flexor arms extend from the mounting bracket adjacent to the rails. The flexor arms are positioned so as not to occlude visualization through the tubular retractor and such that applying pressure to flex the flexor arms toward one another shifts the rails to accept or remove the retractor arm into or from the receptacles, and releasing the pressure reverts the rails so as to inhibit the retractor arm from being inserted or removed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2022Publication date: February 16, 2023Applicant: JGMG BENGOCHEA, LLCInventors: Javier GARCIA-BENGOCHEA, John SOUZA, SR.

Publication number: 20210137443Abstract: A method for monitoring nerve tissue status during a surgical procedure using a monitoring system that includes a stimulating electrode and a sensing electrode each positioned in proximity to a nerve of a patient. Each electrode may be mono- or bi-polar. A first electrical stimulus is applied by the stimulating electrode and received by the sensing electrode. A monitoring unit determines a first transit time for the first stimulus. A second electrical stimulus is applied by the stimulating electrode and received by the sensing electrode. The monitoring unit determines a second transit time for the second stimulus. The monitoring unit then notifies a user if the second transit time is greater than the first transit time by a predetermined threshold, which may indicate degradation in nerve performance.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 4, 2018Publication date: May 13, 2021Inventor: Javier GARCIA-BENGOCHEA
