Abstract: A computing system determines a maximum field size for a field containing values of quantized versions of a weight matrix, an input data matrix, and a bias matrix and determines a weight upper bound of scaling factors for the weight matrix based on values of the weight matrix, an input data upper bound of scaling factors for the input data matrix based on values of the input data matrix, and a bias upper bound of scaling factors for the bias matrix based on values of the bias matrix. The computing system also sets a weight scaling factor of the weight matrix, an input data scaling factor of the input data matrix, and a bias scaling factor for the bias matrix in two different cases: when the sum is less than or equal to the bias upper bound and when the sum is greater than the bias upper bound.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a kit for augmenting a primary repair construct in an articulating joint. The kit includes a flexible member, a first implant that fixes a first end of the flexible member in a first bone adjacent to the primary repair construct and a second implant that may selectively couple to the flexible member, and thereby fix a second end of the flexible member in a second bone adjacent to the primary repair construct. The kit also includes a tension adjusting construct that may operatively couple to the flexible member and controllable adjust a tension on the flexible member disposed between the first and second implant, the tension adjustable so as to define an angle of joint articulation at which the flexible member changes from being passive to augment the primary repair construct.

Abstract: Methods of making an enhanced bioactive PRP implant include supplying a centrifuge container with a collagen-based scaffold pre-inserted onto a moveable filter within the vial. A centrifuge process for creating the PRP implant is followed, resulting in a PRP/collagen implant combination. Other biologics may be added to the container instead of or in addition to the collagen-based scaffold. Additionally, methods of fixing the PRP implant into place at the point of a tear or wound include applying the PRP implant adjacent to or within a meniscal tear, or underneath or on top of a rotator cuff tear. Suture or staples may then be routed either through or over the PRP implant to hold the implant in place.
