Abstract: A sensing insert device (100) is disclosed for measuring a parameter of the muscular-skeletal system. The sensing insert device (100) can be temporary or permanent. Used intra-operatively, the sensing insert device (100) comprises an insert dock (202) and a sensing module (200). The sensing module (200) is a self-contained encapsulated measurement device having at least one contacting surface that couples to the muscular-skeletal system. The sensing module (200) comprises one or more sensors (303), electronic circuitry (307), a capacitor (1410), and communication circuitry (320). The capacitor (1410) powers the sensing module during a measurement process. An application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) increases power efficiency while reducing a form factor of the sensing module (200). The ASIC comprises power management circuitry (1412) and operational circuitry (1414). The power management circuitry (1412) couples a low-power energy source (1400) and operational circuitry (1414) to operate in one or more power conservation modes.

Abstract: A load balance and alignment system is provided to assess load forces on the vertebra in conjunction with overall spinal alignment. The system includes a spine instrument having an electronic assembly and a sensorized head. The sensorized head can be inserted between vertebra and report vertebral conditions such as force, pressure, orientation and edge loading. A GUI is therewith provided to show where the spine instrument is positioned relative to vertebral bodies as the instrument is placed in the inter-vertebral space. The system can report optimal prosthetic size and placement in view of the sensed load and location parameters including optional orientation, rotation and insertion angle along a determined insert trajectory.

Abstract: A dual-mode closed-loop measurement system (100) for capturing a transit time, phase, or frequency of energy waves propagating through a medium (122) is disclosed. A first device comprises an inductor drive circuit (102), an inductor (104), a transducer (106), and a filter (110). A second circuit comprises an inductor (114) and a transducer (116). A parameter to be measured is applied to the medium (122). The medium (122) is coupled between the first device and the second device. The first device initiates the transmit inductor (104) to query via inductive coupling to a receive inductor (114) on the second device via a first path. The inductor (114) triggers a transducer (116) on the second device to emit an energy wave that is propagated in the medium (122) and detected by the first device. The transit time of energy waves is affected by the parameter by known relationship.
