Abstract: An adaptor for a surgical clip driver is disclosed herein. The adaptor includes a first body and a second body. Each of the first body and the second body has an opening extending inwardly that is configured to receive a portion of a jaw of the surgical clip driver. The first body also includes a first body retaining member configured to retain a first portion of each of the two or more surgical clips and the second body also includes a second body retaining member configured to retain a second portion of each of the two or more surgical clips. When the first body and the second body are received on the surgical clip driver, the first body retaining member and the second body retaining member face each other and are aligned with each other to receive and retain the two or more surgical clips. A cartridge for retaining surgical clips is also disclosed herein.

Abstract: A disposable wooden utensil includes a handle having a distal end and an opposite neck end. A load-engaging member extends cantilevered from the neck end in generally coplanar alignment with the handle so as to form a neck between the handle and the load-engaging member. A raised dorsal ridge is formed substantially medially along the handle and extends substantially along the load-engaging member.

Abstract: A surgical device includes a first portion and a second portion. The first and second portions are releasably connected together by cooperating first and second formations. The first formation may be formed on the first portion. The second formation includes a resilient arm which is formed on the second portion and engages the first formation on the first portion. The resilient arm may be integrally formed with the second portion.

Abstract: A prosthesis includes a trunnion having a first end defining a uniform cross-section and a second end adapted to be fixed to a prosthesis stem. A ceramic head has a first bearing surface on which a second prosthesis fixed to a second bone can articulate. The ceramic head defines a recess. The first end of the trunnion is fixedly received within the recess. The second end of the trunnion is releasably connectable to the prosthesis stem by a taper connection.
