  • Bone Screws, Instrumentation, and Methods of Using of Same
    Publication number: 20260090813
    Abstract: A method of inserting a fastener includes positioning a portion of a stylet within a cannulated shaft of the fastener, advancing a tip of the stylet through a first bone and into a second bone, advancing a leading end of the fastener along the stylet through the first bone and into the second bone, and removing the stylet from the cannulated shaft of the fastener and the bone. In another embodiment, a method of inserting a fastener includes positioning a portion of a stylet within a cannulated shaft of the fastener, advancing a tip of the stylet into a bone to a first depth without advancing the fastener into the bone, advancing a leading end of the fastener along the stylet into the bone to a second depth without further advancing the stylet into the bone, and removing the stylet from the cannulated shaft of the fastener and the bone.

  • System for providing continuous systolic blood pressure measurement to maintain permissive hypotension
    Patent number: 10271740
    Abstract: A system for maintaining permissive hypotension in a patient includes monitoring of blood perfusion and pressure, combining blood perfusion and pressure data to determine systolic blood pressure, monitoring for detection of systolic blood pressure below a critical threshold value, and providing an alert to perfusion options to maintain permissive hypotension. The system may be adapted to adjust the critical threshold value for systolic blood pressure as treatment progresses.
