The coupler is, in turn, engaged to the cord.

Abstract: Surgical trays, tools and methods for use in hip replacement surgery wherein the hip replacement prosthesis is a reverse hip prosthesis. The trial components, specialized tools and methods of the invention enable a surgeon to identify the optimum components of the reverse hip prosthesis for implantation in a patient based on the sizes and angles best adapted to the patent's anatomy.

Abstract: A cooler with a dry interior chamber that effectively keeps beverages cold without subjecting them to moisture. By combining a highly insulated outer container with an inner container designed for efficient cooling, this invention prevents labels from peeling off and enhances the overall beverage experience. Additionally, the depth of the ice chamber is adjustable, offering versatility to suit varying needs while reducing the required amount of ice.

Abstract: A patient rotation device including an armature and a patient engagement assembly. The armature is structurally configured for attachment to an outside structure. The armature has a first end and a second end spaced apart from the first end. The patient engagement assembly includes a housing and a rotational assembly. The housing is attachable proximate the second end of the armature. The rotational assembly includes an axle and a rotational member. The rotational member is rotationally coupled to one of the housing and the armature, and structurally configured to be being positionable over a surface of a bed. Methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A troche mold assembly includes a cover defining a receiving area and a tray removably positioned in the receiving area. The tray includes a frame having a top side and a bottom side opposite from the top side. The frame defines a plurality of cells, and each cell is configured to receive a medicament. The tray also includes a plurality of buttons. Each button is within a corresponding cell and is between the top side and the bottom side of the frame. In some aspects, wherein each button includes a center portion, a first hinge line adjacent to the cell wall, and a second hinge line between the first hinge line and the center portion. In various aspects, the cover includes a locating rib, and the tray is removably positioned within the receiving area such that the locating rib contacts the top side of the frame.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to providing electronic locking systems. Using novel designs and network technology, the present systems, methods, and apparatuses can provide a secure alternative to a cam lock or a lock box for storing items that may be left unattended, without the use of a physical key. For example, in certain embodiments, the present systems, methods, and apparatuses can facilitate the locking and unlocking of a cam lock or a lock box by using a digital construct, an encryption system, and various native and/or third-party software components.

Abstract: A sacroiliac joint fusion procedure using surgical instruments specifically designed for access and treatment at a posterior inferior access region to the cartilaginous portion of the SI joint. The system allows for fewer devices implanted in the patient to reduce potential risks which are increased when having to place three or more implants. Due to the special design which resists the shear and nutational forces present at the SIJ, just a single implant can be used therefore reducing the amount of metal implanted into the patient while allowing for a great area for bone healing and bridging which provides a lasting relief to the otherwise excruciating low back, buttock and leg pain originating from the degenerative sacroiliac joint.

Abstract: A system for performing a fusion procedure on a sacroiliac joint defined between a sacrum and an ilium. The system may include a working cannula including a proximal end, a distal end, a tubular body extending between the proximal and distal ends, a cannula passageway defined within the tubular body and having a cannula axis extending there through, a pair of prongs coupled to the tubular body and extending distally there from, an anchor arm engagement structure coupled to the tubular body, and a pin guide coupled to the tubular body and defining a pin passageway having a guidance axis there through that is generally parallel with the cannula axis.

Abstract: A method of diagnosing and treating a sacroiliac joint of a patient involving delivering a first member into the ilium via a first posterior approach, delivering a second member into the sacrum via a second posterior approach, coupling the first and second members to a pliers, and manipulating the first member relative to the second member via the pliers to determine an ailment of the sacroiliac joint.

Abstract: Moto-controlled lock apparatus/mechanism that deploys locking pins to retain the shackle when the lock apparatus/mechanism is in the closed position. Generally, when the lock apparatus/mechanism is in the closed position, the locking pins are prevented from moving by a blocking cam. In various embodiments, the blocking cam is actuated by a motor that rotates the blocking cam, thereby forcing the locking pins into and holding the locking pins in compatibly-shaped cutouts in the shackle.
