Publication number: 20230270428Abstract: A surgical wire is part of a system that includes a retractor blade defining one or more paths for the surgical wire to follow. The paths can be one or more openings, cannulations, paths, tubes, other structures, or combinations thereof. The surgical wire can be routed through the front, back, and/or middle of the retractor blade and into a vertebral body. The surgical wire can be routed through a shim in communication with the retractor blade and into a vertebral body Systems and methods are used to insert surgical wires into bone. Systems and methods are used for removing surgical wires from bone. Systems include those for gripping and pulling or pushing surgical wires. Systems include those that interact with a retractor (e.g., an arm, body, or blade thereof) to facilitate removal of the surgical wire.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2023Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Cole Douglas, Kelli Lynch, Juan Uribe, Shane Fedon, Byron Riemhofer, Michael Serra, Alejandro De La Rosa, Ross Volpe, Chunqing Lu, Stephen Laffoon

Patent number: 8972042Abstract: The present example of transferring and organizing articles from a shelf into a container, (or “controlled transfer and packing”) also allows a warehouse distribution system to be provided that receives items from a manufacturer or distributor, and boxes or packages the items to produce a shipment to another reseller, or customer, according to a received order in a way that may be efficient than current methods. In particular, the system makes use of a specialized floor plan and equipment that aids in processing the order according to the pricing methods described. The processing also provides an example of transferring and organizing articles from a shelf into a container that controls article tumble when loading the article into a container that tends to increase packing efficiency. Loading of items to be packed into magazines to aid transferring of articles from a shelf into a container is also described.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2007Date of Patent: March 3, 2015Inventor: Juan Uribe

Publication number: 20050025827Abstract: The present invention provides slow release estradiol-progesterone formulations that can be used in either contraception or hormone replacement therapies. The formulations comprise shaped particles of estradiol that is in a hemicrystalline form that exhibits especially low dissolution rates. The shaped particles comprise estradiol compounded in a 1:1 molar ratio with cholesterol, and are administered in combination with progesterone. The slow release formulations of the present invention afford the dual advantages of a low dose estradiol formulation with a low frequency administration regimen. The formulations can be parenterally administered once a month or less often.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2004Publication date: February 3, 2005Applicant: John Claude SavoirInventors: John Savoir, Juan Uribe
