Medshape’s Morphix is a disposable handheld orthopedic bone anchor delivery system for use in rotator cuff repair surgery.
Work Summary
Worked on the engineering team at Enginuity Works to develop mechanical design of delivery system including:
- Research of surgical procedures,
- Concept generation, mechanical sketches and development of handle,
- Handle master model from Creature‘s orthogonal sketches,
- Clam shell plastic part design for crush rib or bonded assembly,
- Overmolded plastic part design for concentric cannulas,
- Tolerance stack analysis of assembly,
- Supporting documentation for compliance with QSR design controls in support of 510(k) submission, and
- Engineering drawings and vendor coordination.

Disposable handheld orthopedic bone anchor delivery system for use in rotator cuff repair surgery.

Concentric stainless steel cannulas with overmolded ends, a injection molded plastic knob, and clamshell housing.

Device is originally locked allowing insertion into site. When knob is twisted the mechanism is free to drive forward deploying bone anchor. Unscrew handle to separate and remove .
