  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING INTERRELATED NOTIONAL DATA
    Publication number: 20240070141
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for generating notional data. The method includes: receiving seed data of one or more object types in a base dataframe; defining one or more functional relationships associated with the one or more object types, at least one functional relationship of the one or more functional relationships specifying a change to seed data of one object type of the one or more object types; generating data of the one or more object types based at least in part on the seed data in the base dataframe and the one or more functional relationships; and generating the notional data based at least in part on the generated data of the one or more object types.

  • INTRAMEDULLARY FIXATION SYSTEM FOR MANAGEMENT OF PELVIC AND ACETABULAR FRACTURES
    Publication number: 20230157708
    Abstract: Devices for treating a bone and methods of inserting such devices into a bone are disclosed. A device for treating a bone may include a flexible tube, a stiffening mechanism and an actuator. The flexible tube has a distal end and a proximal end. The stiffening mechanism within the flexible tube is configured to cause the flexible tube to become rigid. The actuator is configured to cause the stiffening mechanism to cause the flexible tube to become rigid in response to the actuator being actuated.
