The said invention (US11711643B2) was invented by Guobao Wei, Keyvan Behnam, Nanette Forsyth, John Winterbottom, James Beisser, Todd Boyce, Mohamed Attawia, Cristy J. Richards & Lawrence A. Shimp. It was patented by USPTO on July 24^th, 2018. Currently, it stands assigned to Warsaw Orthopedic Inc.

The current innovation presents a specialized delivery method for surgical areas, especially tailored for the administration of substances such as bone transplants. This device incorporates a protective layer that securely holds the substance until it is placed at the surgical site, where it then enables the transfer of the substance or adjacent materials. This technique has the ability to adapt to uneven surgical sites, maintain a cohesive mass of the material, and enable customization during implantation, unlike traditional bone transplants.

The covering may consist of one or more compartments, which hold compounds until they are required and help to release them in a regulated manner. In addition, the system has adaptable attachment methods that may be mechanical, physical, or chemical, guaranteeing a stable installation. This novel design overcomes the constraints of conventional bone grafts by offering improved conformance, support, and personalization at the surgical site.
