Posterior Stabilization For Fixed Center Of Rotation Anterior Prosthesis Of The Intervertebral Disc
US Patent:
2008007, Mar 27, 2008
Filed:
Mar 12, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/716961
Inventors:
Richard A. Balderston - Philadelphia PA, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/70
US Classification:
606 61
Abstract:
A spinal implant assembly used in conjunction with an artificial disc to prevent the artificial disc from disconnecting or shifting after being implanted in a patient. The spinal implant assembly prevents rotation of an artificial disc beyond a maximum range of motion for the artificial disc. That is, the implant assembly prevents the artificial disc from over rotating in any particular direction which could result in a failure to the artificial disc and/or instability to the spine. In its capacity as a safety device, the spinal implant assembly of the invention is passive permitting an artificial disc to rotate without interference or resistance, so long as the range of rotation for the disc remains within safe limits. The spinal implant assembly includes at least one stabilization member attached to vertebrae above and below the artificial disc. The stabilization member is curved and is adapted to compress and expand while retaining its curved shape.
Bonding System For Orthopedic Implants
US Patent:
2007017, Jul 26, 2007
Filed:
Sep 18, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/522606
Inventors:
Lewis S. Sharps - Bryn Mawr PA, US
Richard A. Balderston - Philadelphia PA, US
Richard A. Balderston - Philadelphia PA, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/28
US Classification:
623 235, 623 2361
Abstract:
A biocompatible bonding material is applied as an intermediary to attach prosthesis to boney tissue. The bonding material has the strength and rapid setting characteristics of PMMA cement, and is incorporated by the supporting bone as the boney ingrowth and osteogenic growth processes take place. In one embodiment, the bonding material is comprised of calcium phosphate polymer that provides immediate hardening and bonding, thereby locking the prosthesis to the bone. The biologic bond allows for bone in-growth over a period of weeks providing long term fixation. The immediate bonding can eliminate the early loosening that commonly occurred with uncemented joint replacements.
