Patent number: 11849983Abstract: A bone fixation system for bone repair, the system comprising a bone fixation plate with upper and lower surfaces and at least one opening formed on the upper and lower surfaces to form a passage extending from the upper surface to the lower surface to receive a bone screw. The passage is defined by one or more non-threaded inner walls extending from the upper surface to the lower surface. At interference portions, the passage has a width between the walls smaller than the diameter of the head of the bone screw to achieve interference between the head of the bone screw and the inner walls at interference portions to lock the bone screw within the passage upon its insertion into the passage at a variable angle of rotation relative to a longitudinal axis of the passage.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Field Orthopaedics Pty LtdInventors: Huan Yuan, Owen John Bawden, Kelly Coverdale, Christopher Arnold Jeffery, Jarred James Bairstow, Jayaraman Somu, Shanthan Pather

Patent number: 10806563Abstract: A system may include an endoluminal prosthesis and a guide wire. The prosthesis may include a tubular body including a graft material wall, a proximal end opening, a distal end opening, and a lumen extending longitudinally therein. The prosthesis may include first and second fenestrations in the graft material wall. The first and second fenestrations may be spaced from one another circumferentially about the tubular body. The guide wire may have a first end and a second end both extending from a region proximal of the proximal end opening. The guide wire may enter the proximal end opening, exit the first fenestration, partially traverse an exterior surface of the prosthesis, enter the second fenestration, and exit the proximal end opening. One or more of the fenestrations may include a branch.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2017Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Blayne A. Roeder, Matthew S. Huser, Kelly Coverdale

Patent number: 9510963Abstract: A capsule assembly for an endograft introducer is disclosed. The assembly comprises: a capsule and a capsule plug. The capsule has a cavity for receiving an end of a stent graft and a capsule wall terminating in a distal end. The capsule plug comprises: a tip portion having a lead-in surface and an abutment surface; and a tail portion having an external surface engageable with an inside surface of the capsule wall. The capsule is slideably movable with respect to the capsule plug from a first position in which the distal end of the capsule wall surrounds an opening into the cavity to a second position in which the distal end of the capsule wall is positioned proximally with respect to the abutment surface, whereby movement of the tip portion into the capsule is resisted by abutment between the distal end of the capsule wall and the abutment surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2014Date of Patent: December 6, 2016Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Kelly Coverdale, Werner D. Ducke, Graham W. Scott, Mena Yang

Patent number: 9408689Abstract: An iliac artery stent graft has a substantially inverted Y shape comprising a second arm terminating in a second end, and first and third arms terminating respectively in a first end and a third end. Each of the arms comprising a tubular graft of biocompatible graft material and the three arms joined being at a junction to allow fluid flow from the second arm into the first and third arms. In use the first end is deployed within the common iliac artery extending towards the external iliac artery, the second end is deployed within the common iliac artery extending towards the iliac bifurcation and the third end is within the common iliac artery and extends towards the internal iliac artery. Each of the three arms are mutually at an angle of approximately 120 degrees to each other. In use the first and second legs form a U shape to allow a deployment device to be smoothly deployed.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2014Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Alex Buddery, Kelly Coverdale, Werner Dieter Ducke, Jacqui Faber, Johnny LeBlanc, Nhi Dong Thi Nguyen-Smith, Janelle Thomas
