Surgical Saw Blade

US Patent:
4461296, Jul 24, 1984
Filed:
Apr 16, 1979
Appl. No.:
6/030693
Inventors:
Joseph Hodge - Spartanburg SC
International Classification:
A61B 1714
US Classification:
128317
Abstract:
A saw blade is adapted for attachment to a power operated surgical saw having a blade element with teeth disposed along at least a portion of the periphery of same to define a cutting surface and having a saw connector receiving opening therein. A guard element is secured to the blade portion on at least one side thereof and extends outwardly therefrom in a direction transverse to the major axis of the blade. The guard portions are set at a predetermined distance from the cutting surface so as to define a depth of cut of the saw blade, whereby a surgeon may utilize the blade, either rotary type, or oscillatory type for sternal splitting incisions without the danger of too deep a cut to a point where injury to the heart and great vessels can occur. Likewise, blades according to the present invention can be utilized with greater safety for the patient in removal of casts and for orthopedic surgical purposes.
