The various devices disclosed include an intermedullary device having a proximal member and a distal member that is articulable in relation to the proximal member. The proximal and distal members have ends that are movably coupled to form a joint that can be actuated to reduce a fracture and realign the bone after insertion of the device into the bone.

Abstract: Various bone fixation device embodiments include both a fixation device (such as a screw) and a detachable driver device, with the fixation device having an elongate uncannulated fixation shaft, a sharp distal tip, and a proximal head having a first coupling structure and a proximal flat surface, and the detachable driver device having an elongate driver shaft and a distal head having a second coupling structure and a distal flat surface. Further implementations include a combination device comprising both a detachable driver device and a fixation device, along with related systems and methods. In addition, a stabilization device is provided that can be coupled to a detachable driver device and an attachment device to help maintain the coupling of the driver device and the attachment device and help to maintain the coupling thereof during a procedure.

Abstract: Bone deformity correction devices and methods of using such devices to correct bone deformities. The device can include an elongate body, an adjustable manipulation arm movably coupled to the elongate body, wherein the adjustable manipulation arm is configured to move axially and laterally, and a cutting guide removably attachable to the device elongate body.

Abstract: The various embodiments disclosed herein relate to bone fixation or fusion devices, including intramedullary fixation or fusion devices that are implanted around the target bone. Certain device embodiments relates to devices that can be bent or otherwise deformed to replicate the natural or desired curve of the bone or joint being treated. In addition, other embodiments relate to implantation devices that can be used to implant or position the bone fixation or fusion devices.

Abstract: Various handheld cauterization device and/or system embodiments having safety features or components incorporated therein. In certain implementations, the device can be a retractable and deployable safety shield sized to receive any known handheld cauterization device. According to other embodiments, the device can be a handheld cauterization device with a retractable and deployable cauterization tip or a retractable and deployable safety shield.

Abstract: The various embodiments disclosed herein relate to bone fixation devices, including intramedullary fixation or fusion devices. The various devices disclosed include an intermedullary rod or device having a proximal and a distal portion. The proximal and distal portions having articulated ends that are coupled to form a joint. The joint may be actuated to reduce a fracture and realign the bone after insertion of the device into the bone.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are various embodiments of a modular digit fixation system that has two or more attachable and adjustable modules. The modules are attachable to separate adjacent digits and each other and have multiplanar adjustability. Two modules are disclosed: an elongate module and a cylindrical module having a body and a slidable clamp. Further, the embodiments also include various related components, devices, methods, and technologies.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for Achilles tendon repair are described where an elongate tendon repair assembly may be introduced into a single incision to access the damaged tissue. The assembly may define a channel for receiving a portion of the tendon and which may provide support to the tissue during repair. One or more retractable needles each carrying a length of suture may be deployed within the channel for piercing through the tendon and a cinching member may secure each of the suture lengths for tensioning the suture against the damaged tendon. Once the suture lengths have been deployed, the needles may be retracted and the device removed from the incision.

Abstract: Systems for tissue repair are described where an elongate tissue repair device may be introduced into a single incision to access the damaged tissue. A suture delivery assembly may be sized for insertion through a single incision and positioned into proximity with a damaged or ruptured tissue region. A first portion of the damaged tissue region may be positioned within or along a channel defined along the suture delivery assembly and one or more lengths of suture may be secured to the first portion via the device. A second portion of the damaged tissue region may be similarly positioned within or along the channel and one or more additional lengths of suture may be secured to the second portion via the device. The first and second portions may then be approximated and secured to one another via the sutures to facilitate healing of the damaged tissue region.

Abstract: Adjustable allograft templates and methods of use are disclosed where a template for resecting a tissue region may generally comprise a template frame having a surface for contacting the tissue region and which defines an open area of tissue to be resected. A frame assembly along the template frame may be translatable relative to the template to adjust a size of the open area of tissue to be resected. One or more inner guidance slots may be defined along the frame such that the inner guidance slots are spaced relative to one another to define the tissue within the open area to be resected from a patient. Additionally, one or more outer guidance slots may also be defined along the frame and aligned adjacent to the inner guidance slots. The outer guidance slots may be spaced relative to one another to define the tissue to be resected from a donor.
