Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for preparing a glenoid to receive an implant using a transhumeral approach are disclosed. Various tools, such as a reamer attachment, can be disposed in a glenohumeral space proximate to the glenoid, and then a driver or other shaft can be separately introduced into the glenohumeral space. The driver can be coupled to the reamer attachment and then operated to treat or otherwise prepare the glenoid to receive an implant. After the reamer attachment is no longer needed to perform the desired treatment, it can be detached from the driver and both the reamer attachment and driver can be removed from the glenohumeral space. The disclosed systems, devices, and methods can be performed with or without a guidewire, and various other instruments, such as those for identifying a center of the glenoid, can be used.

Abstract: A solid component activator for use in a geopolymer cement containing a silico-aluminate material comprising a mixture of sodium silicate and sodium carbonate for activating the geopolymer cement by increasing reactivity of the silico-aluminate material in the geopolymer cement when forming geopolymer concrete.
