Abstract: Visualization systems, devices, and methods, optionally adapted for intubation. The systems may be adapted to cause information from a first camera to have more of an influence on the actuation of a introducer that information from a second camera. Introducers herein may include a shaft that includes one or more markers thereon.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for draining and analyzing bodily fluids and assessing health are described and generally comprise a drainage tube in fluid communication with at least one opening near or at a distal end of a catheter, a pump in fluid communication with the drainage tube and configured to apply a negative pressure to the drainage tube, and a valve configured for unidirectional flow and in fluid communication with the drainage tube. A controller is configured to actuate the pump to apply the negative pressure for clearing an airlock and to monitor a urine output from the patient over a first predetermined period of time above a urine output threshold and over a second predetermined period of time below the urine output threshold. The controller may determine a risk of acute kidney injury if the urine output below the urine output threshold exceeds the second predetermined period of time.

Abstract: A method and instrumentation for performing a patellofemoral arthroplasty orthopaedic procedure includes coupling an anterior cutting block to a femur of a patient such that the cutting block references local anatomy of the femur. The anterior cutting block is used to perform a number of bone cuts to establish a trochlear cavity in the femur. The trochlear cavity is formed such that a trochlear prosthesis may be inset into the cavity and substantially flush with the surrounding cartilage. A finishing burring guide and burr bit may be used to detail the shape and/or size of the trochlear cavity. Additionally, a trochlear drill guide may be used to facilitate establishing peg holes in the patient's femur to receive corresponding pegs of the trochlear prosthesis.

Abstract: An orthopaedic knee prosthesis includes a tibial bearing and a femoral component configured to articulate with the tibial bearing. The femoral component includes a posterior cam configured to contact a spine of the tibial bearing and a condyle surface curved in the sagittal plane. The radius of curvature of the condyle surface decreases gradually between early-flexion and mid-flexion. Additionally, in some embodiments, the radius of curvature of the condyle surface may be increased during mid-flexion.

Abstract: Disposable controls, re-usable devices, and their methods of use. The disposable controls and reusable devices are adapted to in operable communication during a procedure or process, and thereafter the disposable control can be discarded while the reusable device can be reused in a subsequent procedure or process. The disposable controller and reusable portion can be part of an intubation system.

Abstract: A number of orthopaedic surgical instruments are disclosed. A method, apparatus, and system for fabricating such instruments are also disclosed. In some embodiments, an orthopaedic instrument assembly may include a femoral cutting block configured to receive a portion of a distal femur of a patient and a ligament balancer secured to the femoral cutting block.

Abstract: An orthopaedic knee prosthesis includes a femoral component having a condyle surface. The condyle surface is defined by one or more radii of curvatures, which are controlled to reduce or delay the onset of anterior translation of the femoral component relative to a tibial bearing.

Abstract: An equipment adaptor assembly and equipment stand is disclosed which generally comprises an adaptor body having a width and a depth, a connector extending from the adaptor body and configured for securement to the equipment, a first brace extending from a first portion of the adaptor body for stabilizing the equipment relative to the adaptor when secured to the connector, and a second brace extending from a second portion of the adaptor body for stabilizing the equipment relative to the adaptor when secured to the connector. The adaptor may be configured to be interchangeably securable to a floor stand and a horizontal support structure while maintaining a level orientation of the equipment relative to horizontal when secured to the adaptor and without rearranging the adaptor.

Abstract: Trays and methods for medical products packaging, storage and access are described where a multi-level packaging assembly may comprise a top tray level, a lower tray level upon which the top tray level is removably positioned, one or more compartment barriers which define a first compartment within the lower tray level such that the first compartment is sized to accommodate a single syringe. The first compartment barriers may have a continuous ledge at a constant level with respect to a bottom of the lower tray level, and a base which is uninclined relative to the bottom of the lower tray level, and at least one layer of wrap sized so as to fold over and enclose both the lower tray level and the top tray level such that unfolding of the at least one layer of wrap reveals the top tray level.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for draining and analyzing bodily fluids and assessing health are described generally comprising a pumping mechanism which is fluidly connectable at a first end to a portion of a drainage line and a venting mechanism having a one-way valve and which is connectable at a first end into fluid communication with a drainage catheter and the drainage line. The pumping mechanism may be configured to create a negative pressure within the drainage line when the pumping mechanism is in communication with the drainage line, and the one-way valve may be configured to open to an environment when the venting mechanism is connected at the first end and when the drainage line is at a pressure less than an environmental pressure such that an airlock is prevented from forming within the drainage line.
