Modular Hip Distractor

Project ID: TECH-2023-10 Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique involving the insertion of specialized instruments through small incisions into the hip joint. This approach is commonly employed to address various hip-related issues including femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), labral tears, and the extraction of loose bodies within...

Bioactive Fusion Device

Project ID: D2013-82 Background Over 650,000 spine surgeries are performed annually in the United States, with the majority being decompressive laminectomies for spinal stenosis. Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal housing the spinal cord. It is generally caused by arthritis in the vertebral column and/or bulging of the intervertebral...

Thermoresponsive Injectable Microparticles-Gel Composites with Low Dose of Recombinant BMP-9 and VEGF for Bone Repair

Bone repair remains a major clinical need because autograft and allograft approaches can be limited by donor-site morbidity, pain, resorption, disease-transmission risk, and immune rejection. Tissue-engineered alternatives seek to combine osteoconductive scaffolds, osteoinductive factors, and regenerative cells, but many scaffold systems require invasive...

Stabilized Spinal Fixation Hook

Project ID: D2013-70 Invention Description and Novelty: Spinal hook achieves greater reliability for implantation, stabilization and poly-axial head movement, as well as reducing anatomical mismatch with the lamina, transverse process and pedicle before being locked by a rod and fastener. Value proposition: · Hook is shaped to engage multiple...
