Publication number: 20230363771Abstract: A cannulated retrograde reamer that is adjustable to create tunnels of multiple different diameters. The cannulated retrograde reamer substantially reduces the risk of tunnel malposition and/or misalignment, and can be adjusted to create a range of tunnel diameters, thereby allowing inventory levels to be reduced for a surgical case.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Applicant: Smith & Nephew, Inc.Inventors: Steven Mark Bowman, James J. Kennedy, III, Sean M. Frick, Glenn Kenneth Trainer, Jon B. Taylor, David J. Callaghan

Patent number: 11751888Abstract: A cannulated retrograde reamer is adjustable to create tunnels of multiple different diameters. The cannulated retrograde reamer has a first tubular shaft and a second tubular shaft disposed about the first tubular shaft. A cutting member is pivotably coupled to the distal end of the first tubular shaft. The distal end of the second tubular shaft is configured to engage and disengage the proximal end of the cutting member by the rotation and axial movement of the second tubular shaft relative to the first tubular shaft to open and close the cutting member. The cannulated retrograde reamer substantially reduces the risk of tunnel malposition and/or misalignment, and can be adjusted to create a range of tunnel diameters, thereby allowing inventory levels to be reduced for a surgical case.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2021Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: SMITH & NEPHEW, INC.Inventors: Steven Mark Bowman, James J. Kennedy, III, Sean M. Frick, Glenn Kenneth Trainer, Jon B. Taylor, David J. Callaghan

Patent number: 11172883Abstract: A disposable patient interface includes a reusable sensor that removably mounts within a shoe of the disposable patient interface when at least one protrusion on opposite ends of the sensor removably lock with corresponding at least one aperture on opposite portions of the shoe. The patient interface includes a compliant structure which conforms to a patient's body upon placement thereon without causing wrinkles in the compliant structure so as to maximize adhesion of the compliant structure against skin on the patient's body when the compliant structure is conformed to muscle underlying skin on the patient's body.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2019Date of Patent: November 16, 2021Assignee: ZOLL Medical CorporationInventors: Steven J. Weisner, Peter J. Scott, Gwenn Ellerby, John Cain, Sean M. Frick, Babs R. Soller, Ulrich R. Herken, Annemarie Silver, Gary A. Freeman
