20090048549 | ORTHOPEDIC ARM AND SHOULDER BRACE - The present invention relates to a portable device for providing continuous passive motion of a limb comprising a brace for supporting said limb. A programmable motor, mechanically connected to the brace, provides continuous passive motion of a limb. The movement of the limb is controlled in two control points of movement at the lower arm. Flexible positioning means are provided with a fastening means positioning the brace and the programmable motor on the body of a person carrying said device in a stable position. The programmable motor is partially housed within the positioning means. The invention is particularly suitable for use in paramedical and orthopedic applications. It allows adduction and abduction, rotation and exo/endo rotation of a limb. | 02-19-2009 |
20090171462 | HUMERAL COMPONENT OF A SHOULDER JOINT PROSTHESIS - A humeral component of a reverse shoulder prosthesis includes a stem part configured for location within the intramedullary cavity of the humerus, the stem part having a stem axis, an epiphyseal part connected to the elongate stem part and having a concave bearing surface defining an epiphyseal axis, and wherein the epiphyseal axis is offset posteriorly relative to the stem axis. | 07-02-2009 |
20090210065 | MODULAR HUMERAL PROSTHESIS FOR AN INVERTED SHOULDER PROSTHESIS - The invention relates to a modular humeral prosthesis for an inverse shoulder prosthesis, comprising an anatomical shaft ( | 08-20-2009 |
20120239042 | Combination Reamer/Drill Bit for Shoulder Arthoplasty - An instrumentation kit for use in preparing a shoulder to receive a glenoid component in one embodiment includes at least one combination device, the combination device including a boring section configured to form a first bore in a glenoid, a drive section operably connected to the boring section, a reaming section positioned proximally from the boring section and operably connected to the drive section, the reaming section configured to ream a portion of the glenoid, and at least one drill guide configured to guide a drill bit and positioned so as to guide the drill bit to form a second bore at a location spaced apart from the first bore, wherein the reaming section and the boring section are positioned with respect to each other such that the boring section forms the first bore and the reaming section simultaneously reams a portion of the glenoid adjacent to the first bore. | 09-20-2012 |
20120239051 | Device and Method for Retroversion Correction for Shoulder Arthroplasty - A kit for implanting a glenoid component in one embodiment includes a retroversion glenoid component including a generally flat glenoid bone contacting surface defining a first plane, a first offset peg extending away from the glenoid bone contacting surface, a concave articulating surface, an upper surface extending about the concave articulating surface and generally opposite to the glenoid bone contacting surface, the upper surface defining a second plane, the second plane angled with respect to the first plane, and a drill guide configured to guide a drill in forming a bore in a scapula to receive the first offset peg. | 09-20-2012 |
20120239155 | CIRCULAR GLENOID METHOD FOR SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY - A method of shoulder arthroplasty in one embodiment includes accessing a scapula, identifying an inferior glenoid circle center of the scapula, preparing a glenoid fossa of the scapula to receive a prosthesis, selecting a glenoid component, and implanting the selected glenoid component based upon the identified inferior glenoid circle center in the prepared glenoid fossa. | 09-20-2012 |
20120239156 | REVISION GLENOID DEVICE AND METHOD - A method of implanting a revision glenoid component in one embodiment includes accessing a previously implanted glenoid component in a scapula, removing the previously implanted glenoid component, identifying an inferior glenoid circle center of the scapula, preparing a glenoid fossa of the scapula to receive a revision glenoid component, selecting a revision glenoid component, and implanting the selected revision glenoid component based upon the identified inferior glenoid circle center in the prepared glenoid fossa. | 09-20-2012 |
20140018927 | Revision Glenoid Device and Method - A method of implanting a revision glenoid component in one embodiment includes accessing a previously implanted glenoid component in a scapula, removing the previously implanted glenoid component, identifying an inferior glenoid circle center of the scapula, preparing a glenoid fossa of the scapula to receive a revision glenoid component, selecting a revision glenoid component, and implanting the selected revision glenoid component based upon the identified inferior glenoid circle center in the prepared glenoid fossa. | 01-16-2014 |
