20090171398 | PROVISIONAL BONE PLATE - A provisional bone plate formed of an implantable plastic and having a length corresponding to the longest bone plate in a particular family of bone plates. The provisional bone plate includes a head contoured to match the head of a particular bone as well as a shaft for placement adjacent the bone shaft. The provisional bone plate includes a plurality of circumferential notches surrounding the elongate body or shaft of the bone plate. The circumferential notches are substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the bone plate and define frangible portions of the bone plate which can be removed from the distal end thereof to alter the length of the provisional periarticular bone plate to correspond to the length of the various bone plates in a family of bone plates. The provisional bone plate is constructed of a biologically suitable plastic, is radiographic, and melts at a temperature less than 200° Fahrenheit. | 07-02-2009 |
20120303004 | BACKUP SURGICAL INSTRUMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD - A method for preparing surgical kits for use during a surgery includes preparing a pre-operative surgical plan for a patient and selecting a set of surgical instruments based on the pre-operative surgical plan. The set of surgical instruments includes at least a general instrument, a first size-specific instrument, a patient-specific instrument, and a surgeon-specific instrument. The general instrument is selected from a predetermined group of off-the-shelf instruments. The first size-specific instrument has a first size selected from predetermined sizes. The patient-specific instrument includes a three-dimensional contoured engagement surface configured to nest into a portion of a native anatomy in a single location. The surgeon-specific instrument is selected based on a surgeon preference and is a different instrument than the selected general instrument, first size-specific instrument, and patient-specific instrument. The method further includes preparing a surgeon instrument kit containing the set of surgical instruments in sterilized form. | 11-29-2012 |
20120310246 | Method And Apparatus For Implanting A Knee Prosthesis - A method for preparing a femur for receiving a prosthesis can include positioning an intramedullary (IM) member in the femur. A femoral trial component can be positioned onto a distal end of the femur. The femoral trial component can have an attachment portion and at least two cut surfaces thereon. A modular boss assembly can be attached to the attachment portion of the femoral trial component. The modular boss assembly can have a boss stem that is configured to operably connect to the IM member. A desired contact between the femoral trial component and the distal femur can be confirmed based on the attaching. The femoral trial component can be fixed to the distal femur based on the confirming. The modular boss assembly can be removed from the femoral trial component. A reamer bushing can be coupled relative to the femoral trial component. | 12-06-2012 |

20100006364 | VEHICLE SEAT AND SPLIT CONSOLE ASSEMBLY - A vehicle seat assembly comprises a base; a seat mounted to swivel relative to the base; and a console having first and second segments, the first segment mounted to swivel with the seat relative to the base and the second segment being mounted to remain in fixed position as the seat and first console segment swivel. The console's two segments lie in a generally common horizontal plane and are separated by an arcuate spacing so that the first segment is located proximate the operator and the second segment is located distally of the operator. This arrangement of the seat assembly components allows the seated operator to rotate in the seat through a substantial arc, with the first console segment rotating as well while the second console segment remains stationary. In a second embodiment, the first and second console segments move with the seat as it swivels through a first rotational increment, but the second console segment remains stationary while the seat and first console segment swivel through a second rotational increment. | 01-14-2010 |
20100007181 | Vehicle seat and split console assembly - A vehicle seat assembly comprises a base; a seat mounted to swivel relative to the base; and a console having first and second segments, the first segment mounted to swivel with the seat relative to the base and the second segment being mounted to remain in fixed position as the seat and first console segment swivel. The console's two segments lie in a generally common horizontal plane and are separated by an arcuate spacing so that the first segment is located proximate the operator and the second segment is located distally of the operator. This arrangement of the seat assembly components allows the seated operator to rotate in the seat through a substantial arc, with the first console segment rotating as well while the second console segment remains stationary. | 01-14-2010 |

20150073318 | Controllable Compression Garments Using Shape Memory Alloys And Associated Techniques And Structures - An active compression garment includes at least one passive member to at least partially surround a body part of interest and at least one active actuator member including a shape memory alloy (SMA) that is coupled to the at least one passive member. The at least one active actuator member may be configured to apply compression to, or remove compression from, the body part of interest based on the presence or absence of an applied stimulus. | 03-12-2015 |
20150073319 | Controllable Compression Textiles Using Shape Memory Alloys and Associated Products - An active compression garment includes at least one active textile member formed from a shape memory alloy (SMA) material to provide controllable compression to a body part of interest. The active compression garment may also include at least one contact for applying an electrical stimulus signal to the active textile member to cause the SMA material to return to a trained shape. | 03-12-2015 |

20110314895 | Method of testing a soil specimen - The inventive method is designed to test contaminants in soil that is contaminated with petroleum related products. The method involves the use of a container that will separate soil into a head space for analysis. The container consists of two halves and the container is partially filled with a soiled dirt specimen. The container is then hermetically sealed against the environment by way of a cover snapped over the container rim. The container with the contaminated specimen therein is allowed to accumulate a vapor head space within a certain time period. An instrument will puncture a sealed orifice in the top cover and a sample of the vapor is withdrawn for further analysis. | 12-29-2011 |
