SURGICAL SAW BLADE

A surgical saw blade (24, 24', 24") comprises a distal portion (38) including a cutting edge (42, 42') with a plurality of teeth (44, 449') substantially entirely formed of a first material having a first thermal conductivity, a proximal portion (34, 34', 34") including...

Summary:A surgical saw blade (24, 24', 24") comprises a distal portion (38) including a cutting edge (42, 42') with a plurality of teeth (44, 449') substantially entirely formed of a first material having a first thermal conductivity, a proximal portion (34, 34', 34") including a blade hub (30, 30'), and a body portion (46, 46', 46") disposed between and connecting the distal portion (38) and the proximal portion (34, 34', 34"). The body portion (46, 46', 46") includes a thermal transit core (56, 56') formed of a second material having a second thermal conductivity at least twice the first thermal conductivity and the core (56, 56') having at least two opposed longitudinally extending first core surfaces (57, 57A', 57B', 57") extending across a width of the core (56, 56'), and a pair of opposed vertical flanking members (60) made from a stiffer material than the second material of the thermal transit core (56, 56'), the vertical flanking members (60) extending longitudinally from the proximal portion (34) across the body portion (46, 46', 46") to the distal portion (38).
