"Single pass" refers to a mode of operation in which an oscillating wedge osteotomy blade completes a full bone resection, cut, or wedge osteotomy in one continuous motion or stroke without requiring multiple sequential passes or repeated repositioning of the blade. A single pass may be facilitated by the geometry of the blade, including a progressively increasing thickness across the cut face, cutting teeth orientation, or oscillatory motion, allowing for controlled separation of bone segments in a single engagement. Effectiveness of a single pass may depend on factors such as blade design, oscillation amplitude, bone density, and applied force. Instruments or tools capable of performing a single pass osteotomy include, without limitation, oscillating wedge osteotomy blades, surgical saws, bone-cutting instruments, and similar surgical devices configured for precision bone modification.
