Publication number: 20230310177Abstract: An interbody implant may include a solid, unitary body and one or more porous layers. The interbody implant may include a homogenous interface between the one or more porous layers and a the solid, unitary body. The homogenous interface may fuse the material of the solid, unitary body to the one or more porous layers via a thermal process. The interbody implant may include a superior surface designed to abut an inferior surface of a vertebra and an inferior surface designed to abut a superior surface of a vertebra. The interbody implant may include a bone cavity extending between a first aperture and a second aperture of the superior and inferior surfaces.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Brent FELIX, Jeremy HEISER, Mark WHITTINGTON, Ron GROBERG

Patent number: 11497652Abstract: Apparatus and methods to treat skin defects include a pump with reservoirs for a pressurization gas and a fluid. Upon activation, the pump generates a gas introduced into the gas reservoir, a movable wall of which displaces a movable wall of a fluid source, thus dispensing the fluid into the dressing to spread throughout irrespective of orientation of the dressing, maintaining a transport fluid (e.g. carrier) in the dressing and in contact with a skin defect being treated. The dressing may have a distribution network, and multiple members, dispensing the fluid into the dressing and in contact with a skin defect being treated.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2019Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: Aplion Medical, LLCInventors: Sai Bhavaraju, John Howard Gordon, Jeremy Heiser, Ashok V Joshi, Troy C Dayton
