Shoulder Innovations announced that the USPTO has granted nine new patents over the past 18 months that significantly expand the company’s intellectual property portfolio. The newly granted patents cover key areas within shoulder replacement and less invasive surgical techniques, including among others glenoid preparation in a single step, total reverse shoulder systems and methods, and a porous-coated convertible glenoid.
Specific patents among the newly granted awards adding to the Company’s existing strong IP foundation include:
Glenoid Preparation in a Single Step: a method of implanting a glenoid that involves reaming two cavities in the glenoid in a single step.
Total Reverse Shoulder Systems and Methods: features a reverse shoulder system with a scapular glenoid baseplate and humeral stem, where the baseplate’s axis is angled relative to the stem’s axis.
Porous Coated Convertible Glenoid: covers shoulder replacement components and methods utilizing porous fixation rings, enabling the switch from anatomic to reverse articulating surfaces without changing the fixation components.
Rob Ball, CEO of Shoulder Innovations, said, “This noteworthy expansion of our IP position represents the culmination of over 10 years of research and development, and we are proud of our team for their continued dedication to creating practical solutions for shoulder surgeons and advancing patient outcomes.”
