  • Patent number: 10660668
    Abstract: An impact or extension handle for a needle assembly such as a jamshidi needle can include an attachment portion and a handle portion. The impact or extension handle can also include an impact strikeplate. The attachment portion is configured to couple to the jamshidi needle. A user can use the impact or extension handle to manipulate the position or angle of the needle assembly. A user can tap a mallet or similar instrument on the impact strikeplate to drive the needle assembly into a target location in a patient's body. The impact or extension handle can allow the user to hold his or her hands out of the way of equipment used during the procedure and away from potentially harmful radiation from imaging equipment used during the procedure.

  • Publication number: 20200129309
    Abstract: A method for delivering bone graft material includes removing a container housing a bone graft material from a cryopreservation environment, wherein the bone graft material includes cellular matrix. The container includes an elongate tubular body having a first opening on a first end and a second opening on the second end. The container includes a first cap covering the first opening and a second cap covering the second opening. The method includes placing the container within a bath, removing the container from the bath, removing the first cap and the second cap from the elongate tubular body, coupling the elongate tubular body to a body of a bone graft delivery device while the bone graft material is positioned within the elongate tubular body, and delivering bone graft material through the elongate tubular body to a surgical location using the bone graft delivery device.

  • Publication number: 20190000405
    Abstract: The devices and methods described herein refer to a guidewire, sometimes referred to as a K-wire, for use during varying orthopedic surgeries. The guidewire allows for the measurement of objects and distances inside the patient's body when used in tandem with x-ray or fluoroscopy imaging. Also, the devices and methods described herein act as a guide to accurately insert an instrument or implant, in the correct orientation, to the surgical site. The guidewire comprises a measurement segment that comprises one or more markers placed at known distances from the distal end of the guidewire. The markers, when used in tandem with fluoroscopy and/or x-ray imaging, provide users with a reference for measuring objects and distances inside the body. The markers can have many possible designs or configurations such as, but not limited to, visualization windows, grooves, notches, and/or material inserts.
