    摘要: An extended reality (XR) visualization device worn by an orthopedic surgeon outputs a XR visualization for display. The XR visualization includes a set of one or more virtual checklist items. Each of the one or more virtual checklist items corresponds to an item in a checklist of steps of an orthopedic surgery. Additionally, the XR visualization device detects a command of the orthopedic surgeon to select a virtual checklist item in the set of virtual checklist items. In response to detecting the command, the XR visualization device updates the XR visualization to include additional information regarding a step of the orthopedic surgery corresponding to the selected virtual checklist item.

    摘要: Some embodiments of the present invention include a suture anchor with both knotless and knotted suture attachment capabilities, as well as methods for loading the suture in knotless and knotted configurations. Some embodiments of the present invention include a suture anchor with an inner implant body with a spreader that slides in relation to an outer expandable collar, such that pushing the expandable collar distally with an inserter causes the spreader to expand the collar against the surrounding bone to secure the suture anchor in place. Such embodiments may also include a detachment or breakaway feature between the inserter and the suture anchor to permit separation after anchor deployment. Some embodiments of the present invention include methods for deploying such suture anchors and expanding the expandable collars and/or detaching the inserter tools. Embodiments of the present invention may be used in various orthopedic applications such as, for example, shoulder repair.
