The bone, being living tissue, bleeds into the work site and often hampers the surgeon&#8217;s vision. Bone wax is used to block the bleeding. Current wax application methods are rather crude, so the team has designed and created a minimally invasive bone wax applicator to facilitate this process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Insight Surgical Instruments, LLC Engineering, 2010-11 Liaison(s): Ajay Shah &#8217;06, Jeff Manassero &#8217;07 Advisor(s): Elizabeth Orwin Students(s): Cassie Nguyen (TL-S), [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[164],"tags":[378],"class_list":["post-12453","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-engineering","tag-insight-surgical-instruments-llc"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12453"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12453\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12453"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hmc.edu\/clinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
