The first and second shells are joined together such that composite rod is fixed therebetween. A method of forming joints of composite frame includes forming a composite frame by interconnecting a plurality of composite rods formed by an Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) manufacturing method around a mandrel, applying a first shell to the plurality of composite rods at a first location where composite rods are interconnected, applying a second shell at the first location opposite the first shell relative to the composite rods, and joining the first and second shells together with the composite rods at the first location disposed between the first and second shells.

Abstract: Systems, techniques, and devices are described that may be used in a minimally invasive bone realignment procedure. In some examples, a method of performing a minimally invasive metatarsal correction procedure involves using a bone preparation guide having a guide surface with a length less than a diameter of a bone to be cut using the guide surface. The clinician can guide a bone preparation instrument along the guide surface and angle the bone preparation instrument beyond one or both ends of the guide surface to cut the end of the underlying bone beyond one or both of the ends.

Abstract: A disposable cartridge for use in a diagnostic assay system including a cartridge body defining a barrel port. A rotor is rotationally mounted to the cartridge body and comprises a plurality of assay chambers and a plurality of rotor ports each fluidly coupled to at least one of the plurality of assay chambers. A syringe is coupled to the cartridge body and operative to inject and withdraw assay fluids through the barrel port. The syringe includes a barrel defining an internal environment, a plunger positioned in the barrel and structured to move within a working area, and a disposable shaft structured to detachably mate at a first end with the plunger. The disposable shaft is isolated from the internal environment of the barrel.
