Personalized Shoulder Reconstruction Implant
Your shoulder surgeons who repair extensive glenoid deficiencies now have another treatment option besides bone grafting or hemi-arthroplasties. This custom shoulder implant from Zimmer Biomet, called the Vault Reconstruction System (VRS), is the first patient-matched glenoid implant to treat patients with a severely deficient rotator cuff and extensive bone loss that precludes the use of a standard glenoid baseplate. The VRS uses CT imaging and advanced 3D reconstruction techniques to let surgeons personalize each patient's implant in the hope of more predictable outcomes and results that extend beyond pain relief, says the company.

Arm Sleeves For Your Reprocessors
Your reprocessing techs must cover their arms when preparing and packaging sterile items, but they might not want to wear a long-sleeved scrub top or jacket all shift long. These arm sleeves from Healthmark Industries could be the perfect slide-on alternative. The machine-washable, one-size-fits-all sleeves are made from a fast-drying and moisture-wicking polyester material, featuring an elastic gripper to prevent the sleeve from sliding down the user's arm. Fits a bicep of 10-14 inches. Available in blue, green and pink.

Simplify Complex Lens Exchanges
An intraocular lens exchange can be a challenge for cataract surgeons, especially in cases with absent or compromised capsular support. The Lens Exchange System from VisionCare extends the haptic loops, making it easier for surgeons to handle and maneuver IOLs during complex lens exchanges. The flexible cord and connector system of the LES act as an extension of the haptics, allowing for external manipulation of the new IOL.
