Intervertebral disc prosthesis with transversally arched, curved cylindrical articulation surfaces for the lumbar and cervical spine

The invention relates to an intervertebral disc prosthesis for the total replacement of a natural intervertebral disc within the lumbar and cervical spine, comprising articulating sliding partners, where the upper sliding partner has means for a firm assembly to an upper vertebral body and the lower sliding partner has means for a firm assembly to a lower vertebral body and at least one sliding surface that is between two sliding partners. According to the invention, functional two- and three part designs are planned and both prostheses have in common, that only a dorsoventral- and rotation movement is possible as a result of laterolaterally aimed, transversally arched, ventrally curved cylindrical convexity(ies) and corresponding concavity(ies), however without an inclination of the sliding partners in a lateral direction. In a further design, the cylindrical articulation surfaces are un-curved, enabling a motion of the sliding partners in only a ventrodorsal direction. According to the invention, the intervertebral disc prostheses are suited for an implantation from lateral and ventrolateral, particularly in revision surgeries.

Intervertebral disc prosthesis with a motion- adapted edge for the lumbar and cervical spine

ActiveUS20060235527A1Easy to adaptMinimize risk of fractureSpinal implantsEdge regionIntervertebral disc
The invention relates to an intervertebral disc prosthesis for the total replacement of the intervertebral disc within the lumbar and cervical spine. For a two part as well as for a three part intervertebral disc prosthesis, according to the invention, in accordance to the design of the edges of the sliding partners, there are aspects for at least one of the sliding partners, in which there is an wavelike design of the edge, as the respectively differently high edge regions preferably fluently merge. A significant advantage of the two intervertebral disc prostheses, according to the invention, compared to the present state of the art of already known prostheses, is that as a result of a central transfer of load across a large surface area due to the spherical sliding surfaces, the maximally possible inclination of the sliding partners towards each other in a dorsoventral and laterolateral direction and / or the extent of rotation can, according to the invention, be defined through the wavelike design of the edge region.

Intervertebral prosthesis system, in particular for the cervical spine

An intervertebral prosthesis system, in particular for the cervical spine, includes at least two types of prothesis. The type of prothesis includes a first cover plate that is configured to be connected to a first vertebral body, a second cover plate that is configured to be connected to a second vertebral body, and a prothesis core which is held by a seat on the first cover plate and forms an articulation with the second cover plate. The core of the first type of prosthesis is movable in the anterior-posterior direction relative to the first cover plate. Mobility can also be provided in the lateral direction and rotational direction. The second type of prosthesis of the system may be the same as the first type of prosthesis or may be different, but in all examples of the second type of prosthesis the core is not movable relative to either cover plate.

Travel pillow for sleeping in a vertical or near-vertical reclined position

ActiveUS20130254998A1Prevents undesired slippagePrevent movementPillowsSofasEngineeringOccipital bone
The present invention is directed towards a travel pillow for sleeping in a vertical or near-vertical reclined position. When sleeping in these positions, gravity tends to pull the head forward of the shoulders causing it to droop. The current state of the art travel pillow does not provide a support means to counter this forward drooping tendency. Moreover, its rear support displaces the cervical spine forward, further increasing the tendency for the head to slump forward. The present invention holds a resting head in an upright and stable position to prevent forward head drooping and does so without forwardly displacing the cervical spine. The five novel elements of the present invention are integrally configured to maintain a healthy alignment between the occipital bone of the head, the cervical spine of the neck, and the thoracic spine of the upper back.

Cervical spine traction apparatus and method

InactiveUS20090306567A1Restores proper curvature of the cervical regionExtended range of motionChiropractic devicesNon-surgical orthopedic devicesCervical tractionRadiology
A cervical traction method and apparatus for treating irregularities in the lateral curvature of the cervical region of the spine involves the application of traction load to induce an axially elongated or extension posture in the cervical region of the patient's spine. The patient is placed in a supine or seated position, and a traction halter is fitted about the head of the patient, with a traction sling also being optionally positioned about the cervical region of the patient. A traction load, which may have an intermittently varying magnitude, is exerted on one or more of the sling or halter to induce an axially elongated and / or extension posture in the cervical region. The axially elongated posture at least partially diminishes the lateral curvature of the cervical region of the spine in the patient, and the extension posture at least partially restores the lateral curvature to the cervical region of the spine in the patient, thereby reducing symptoms such as neck pain, upper back pain, headaches, and other symptoms of mechanical origin that result from irregular lateral curvature of the spine.
