Abstract: Sacro-iliac joint stabilizing implants adapted for implanting across a SI joint from a dorsal approach. Methods of, and delivery tools adapted for implanting sacro-iliac joint stabilizing implants across a SI joint from a dorsal approach.

Abstract: An electrical connector including a first and second assembly that are matable with one another by a sliding push fit to establish electrical interconnection between the two assemblies is disclosed. The first assembly includes a contact pin with a collar extending concentrically around the pin to define a recess therebetween, with the collar supporting on its inner surface a first resilient contact element. The second assembly includes a sleeve open at one end thereof such that the sleeve can be received in the recess of the first assembly, with the sleeve supporting on its inner surface a second resilient contact element. The two assemblies may be arranged such that, when the second assembly is inserted into the first assembly, the first resilient contact element makes sliding electrical contact with an external surface of the sleeve of the second assembly, and the second resilient contact element makes sliding electrical contact with the external surface of the pin of the first assembly.

Abstract: An electrical connector has a forward assembly with an outer metal housing supporting several insulative blocks containing the connector contacts. The rear end of each contact has a socket into which is inserted the forward end of conductors contained in a rear assembly. Some of the conductors are filtered and others unfiltered. Connection is made to the rear end of the conductors in the rear assembly by means of plates connected at the end of a cable, the plates supporting contacts that are a push-fit in the rear of the conductors in the rear assembly.
