Abstract: An implant delivery device may include a handle, an elongate shaft extending distally from the handle, and a support frame coupled to a distal end of the shaft. The shaft includes a lumen extending along an entire length of the shaft. The lumen opens to a proximal end of the handle and is configured to receive a bone anchor insertion device having a bone anchor thereon. A medical device system includes the implant delivery device and a bone anchor insertion device advanceable through the lumen of the shaft to secure an implant coupled to the support frame to a bone. A method may include advancing the implant to a treatment site with the implant delivery device, deploying the implant with the support frame, and advancing the bone anchor through the shaft to secure the implant to bone while the support frame remains coupled to the shaft and the implant.

Abstract: An implant delivery system for delivering an implant to the body. The implant delivery system may comprise a delivery shaft including a proximal portion and a distal portion and a detachable frame coupled to the distal portion of the delivery shaft. The detachable frame may include a body portion and a plurality of attachment arms extending away from the body portion. At least one soft tissue anchor may be releasably secured to a free end of at least one of the plurality of attachment arms and may be configured to releasably secure an implant to the detachable frame.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to wearable accessory carriers for mechanical circulatory support systems, and more specifically relates to belts for carrying peripheral components of a VAD. Such wearable accessory carriers may be suitable for carrying and retaining peripheral components of the VAD in a safe, comfortable, and convenient manner. In certain aspects, the invention provides a wearable accessory carrier configured as an elastic belt with several pockets for holding peripheral components. In other aspects, a wearable accessory carrier may be configured as a belt with a magnetic strip configured to carry one or more modular compartments or pockets for holding peripheral components via magnetic attachment. The wearable accessory carriers disclosed herein may be sized to fit around or configured to be worn on a patient's waist, lower or upper torso, thigh, calf, arm, or other limb.
