Publication number: 20240041496Abstract: Subcutaneous implantation tools and methods of implanting a subcutaneous device using the same. The tool may include a tool body having a longitudinally extending recess having a distal opening and having a tunneler at a distal end of the tool body extending from the distal opening of the recess. The tool may include a plunger slidably fitting within at least a portion of the tool body recess. The recess may be configured to receive an implantable device and the tunneler preferably extends distally from the recess at a position laterally displaced from the device when the device is so located in the recess. Movement of the plunger distally within the recess advances the device distally out of the recess and alongside of and exterior to the tunneler.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Inventors: Matthew T. Vanderpool, Michael R. Klardie, Kris A. Peterson

Publication number: 20230248982Abstract: Various embodiments of a feedthrough assembly are disclosed. The assembly includes a header and a test fanout layer electrically connected to the header. A first major surface of the test fanout layer faces an inner surface of the header. The assembly further includes a test via extending between the first major surface and a second major surface of the test fanout layer, and a test pad disposed on the first major surface of the test fanout layer and electrically connected to the test via. At least a portion of the test pad is disposed between the outer surface of the header and a perimeter of the test fanout layer as viewed in a plane parallel to the first major surface of the test fanout layer such that the at least a portion of the test pad is exposed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2023Publication date: August 10, 2023Inventors: Andrew J. Ries, Mark E. Henschel, James R. Wasson, Chunho Kim, Walter E. Benecke, Kris A. Peterson, Jeff M. Wheeler, Songhua Shi

Publication number: 20230218911Abstract: Various embodiments of a feedthrough header assembly and a device including such assembly are disclosed. The assembly includes a header having an inner surface and an outer surface; a dielectric substrate having a first major surface and a second major surface, where the second major surface of the dielectric substrate is disposed adjacent to the inner surface of the header; and a patterned conductive layer disposed on the first major surface of the dielectric substrate, where the patterned conductive layer includes a first conductive portion and a second conductive portion electrically isolated from the first conductive portion. The assembly further includes a feedthrough pin electrically connected to the second conductive portion of the patterned conductive layer and disposed within a via that extends through the dielectric substrate and the header. The feedthrough pin extends beyond the outer surface of the header.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2023Publication date: July 13, 2023Inventors: Andrew J. Ries, Chunho Kim, Robert A. Munoz, Christopher T. Kinsey, Jeffrey Voss, Kris A. Peterson, Mark E. Henschel
