Suture Anchor
US Patent:
5989282, Nov 23, 1999
Filed:
Sep 15, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/929628
Inventors:
Peter M. Bonutti - Effingham IL
International Classification:
A61B 1704
US Classification:
606232
Abstract:
An improved suture anchor is formed from body tissue. The body tissue is shaped to a desired configuration for the anchor and defines a passage through the anchor. A suture is inserted into the passage in the body tissue of the anchor. The anchor is then positioned in a patient's body with a suture extending into the passage in the anchor. The anchor may be formed of osseous body tissue, hard compact bone, dense connective body tissue, or other body tissue. The body tissue may be dried so that it absorbs fluid and expands upon being inserted into a patient's body.
Magnetically Assisted Medication Delivery Method
US Patent:
2009021, Aug 27, 2009
Filed:
Apr 29, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/431835
Inventors:
Peter M. Bonutti - Effingham IL, US
International Classification:
A61N 2/10, A61N 2/08, A61M 5/00
US Classification:
600 12, 600 9, 604506
Abstract:
A tracheal tube positioning apparatus is located relative to a patient's trachea by engaging the patient's Adam's apple. Indicia on relatively movable sections of the positioning apparatus provides an indication of the distance between the patient's mouth and the patient's larynx. A flexible guide rod is moved through a distance corresponding to the distance between the patient's mouth and larynx, as determined by the positioning apparatus. A magnet is utilized to attract a leading end portion of the guide rod. A plurality of emitters may be disposed in an array around the patient's Adam's apple. Outputs from the emitters are detected by a detector connected with the guide rod and by a detector connected with the tracheal tube. Alternatively, a plurality of detectors may be disposed in an array around the patient's Adam's apple to detect the output from an emitter connected with the guide rod and by an emitter connected with the tracheal tube. Expandable elements may be connected with the guide rod and/or tracheal tube to steer movement along an insertion path.

International Classification:
A61B 17/72, A61B 17/68, A61B 17/80
US Classification:
606062000, 606060000, 606069000, 606072000
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for stabilizing a fractured bone. The method includes positioning an elongate rod in the medullary canal of the fractured bone and forming a passageway through the cortex of the bone. The passageway extends from the exterior surface of the bone to the medullary canal of the bone. The method also includes creating a bonding region on the elongate rod. The bonding region is generally aligned with the passageway of the cortex. Furthermore, the method includes positioning a fastener in the passageway of the cortex and on the bonding region of the elongate rod and thermally bonding the fastener to the bonding region of the elongate rod while the fastener is positioned in the passageway of the cortex.
Apparatus For Anchoring A Suture
US Patent:
6056773, May 2, 2000
Filed:
May 7, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/307648
Inventors:
Peter M. Bonutti - Effingham IL
International Classification:
A61B 1704
US Classification:
606232
Abstract:
A tubular anchor may have a polygonal cross-sectional configuration with flat outer side surfaces areas connected by a plurality of outer corner portions. A passage through the anchor may be formed by flat inner side surfaces interconnected by inner corner portions. A suture is inserted through the passage. A concentrated force may be applied against a limited area on a trailing end of the anchor to rotate the anchor to move an outer corner portion of the anchor into engagement with body tissue. The suture may engage an inner corner portion of the anchor. The suture may be inserted through a plurality of anchors and the anchors moved through a tubular member into the body tissue under the influence of force transmitted from a trailing anchor to a leading anchor. When the leading anchor is moved into the body tissue, it is rotated under the influence of force applied against a trailing end of the leading anchor. If desired, two anchors may be interconnected.

Tissue Press And System
US Patent:
5329846, Jul 19, 1994
Filed:
Aug 12, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/728247
Inventors:
Peter M. Bonutti - Effingham IL
International Classification:
B30B 1514, B30B 1516
US Classification:
100 50
Abstract:
A tissue press for shaping or compressing a piece of tissue comprises first and second members movable relative to each other. A first forming element of a predetermined shape is selectively engageable on the first member. A second forming element of predetermined shape is selectively engageable on the second member. The first and second forming elements are positionable on opposite sides of the piece of tissue. The first and second members are relatively movable between a first spaced apart condition and a second condition in which the piece of tissue is held between the first and second forming elements. Means are preferably provided for monitoring and controlling the amount of pressure applied to the piece of tissue, in order to maintain the tissue in a viable living condition. Means may also be provided for draining off fluid from compressed tissue, so that the tissue can be implanted in a compressed state and imbibe fluid from the host site. A retainer, which may be expandable, can be used to maintain the tissue graft in a compressed condition.
Methods For Robotic Arthroplasty
US Patent:
2012022, Aug 30, 2012
Filed:
Feb 29, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/407968
Inventors:
Peter M. Bonutti - Effingham IL, US
International Classification:
A61B 19/00
US Classification:
606130
Abstract:
A computer navigation system may be used with the robot to guide movement of a cutting tool. A robot may perform cutting and/or implant placement operations on a portion of a patient. A robot may have computer controls that could be utilized to form the cuts without using guide members.

Assignee:
BONUTTI RESEARCH, INC. - Effingham IL
International Classification:
A61H 1/02
US Classification:
601 5
Abstract:
An orthosis configured to stretch tissue around a foot and a toe of a wearer is provided. The orthosis includes a first member affixable to the foot and including a first extension member and a second member operatively connected to the first extension member and affixable to the toe, the second member including a second extension member having an arcuate shape.
Active Cannulas
US Patent:
2008010, May 1, 2008
Filed:
Dec 14, 2007
Appl. No.:
12/002010
Inventors:
Peter Bonutti - Effingham IL, US
International Classification:
A61M 29/02
US Classification:
606192000
Abstract:
An active cannula which does more than merely maintain a passage is usable to create and/or enlarge a passage, to position a scope or instrument, to move or locate tissue, etc. The cannula can vary in size or shape as needed, intraoperatively. Because a cannula of the present invention is expandable, the surgeon can make a relatively small incision, stretch the tissue with the expandable cannula, contract the cannula and remove it, allowing the skin to come back to its unstretched condition. Thus, a smaller incision can be made to fit the same size instrument. The cannulas can assume such a non-circular shape, to fit into a natural skin opening and cause less trauma. The devices can be used to seal off a space, expand an existing space or a potential space for working or visualization, move tissue (for example, to stretch an incision), or protect tissue.

Appl. No.:
13/231419
Inventors:
Peter M. Bonutti - Effingham IL, US
International Classification:
