Filed:

Jul 26, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/626071

Inventors:

Jeffrey P Baldwin - Phoenix AZ
Robert E. Hunter - Aspen CO
Laird L. Hatch - Cave Creek AZ
Jenine S. Vinluan - Scottsdale AZ

Assignee:

Orthopaedic Biosystems, Ltd. - Scottsdale AZ

International Classification:

A61B 1704

US Classification:

606148, 606139, 606146

Abstract:

An apparatus and method for delivering or installing a surgical suture or suture-like implant into soft tissue, such as the meniscus of the knee, for example, for reattachment or repair of that tissue. The apparatus and method facilitate ease of placement of the suture or implant by the surgeon, protect surrounding tissue and nerves from damage during use, and permit suturing to occur through a single body portal. An injury to soft tissue, such as a tear in the meniscus of the knee joint or detachment of soft tissue from bone, is repaired through a single body portal by installing a surgical suture across the injury, tear, or detachment and passing that suture back through the body portal so that the suture can be joined and the injury, tear, or detachment can be reapproximated by the surgeon while working through the single body portal.

Assignee:

Orthopaedic Biosystems, Ltd., Inc. - Memphis TN

International Classification:

A61B 1756

US Classification:

606 73, 606232

Abstract:

A medical screw includes a shaft having a threaded portion and a distal guiding tip for introducing the screw into a pre-drilled implantation site. The threaded portion of the medical screw has a first series of helical threads having a first diameter and a second series of helical threads interleaved with the first series of helical thread and having a second diameter, where the first diameter is different than the second diameter. In addition, the medical screw may have a counter-rotation channel configured to receive bone growth.

International Classification:

H02G 3/14

US Classification:

174 66, 220241, 220242

Abstract:

A cover for electrical devices is disclosed. Particular implementations include an electrical device cover configured to mount over an electrical device includes a lid having a flexible membrane. The lid is coupled by a hinge to a base and the cover includes a cord port in an edge of a surface of the cover. The lid is configured to expand through the flexible membrane to an expanded position to accommodate an electrical connector coupled with the electrical device. The lid may also be configured to reduce in depth as the lid retracts from the expanded position to a retracted position through the flexible membrane.
