  • Frames for implantable medical devices and methods
    Patent number: 10040021
    Abstract: Frame structures, assemblies and methods for use in implantable medical devices. The frames may include one or more first polymeric portions and one or more second polymeric portions coupled to the one or more first polymeric portions. The one or more first polymeric portions may have a higher durometer than the one or more second polymeric portions. The one or more second polymeric portions may provide an interference fit between the one or more second polymeric portions and the housing and/or between the one or more second polymeric portions and one or more components disposed in the housing.
    Type: Grant

  • Telemetry antenna for an implantable medical device
    Publication number: 20050203584
    Abstract: A telemetry antenna for an implantable medical device includes one or more portions having a non-linear configuration. In some embodiments, the non-linear configuration provides an antenna having a greater antenna length than the linear lengthwise dimension of the antenna structure. In some embodiments, the non-linear configuration is a serpentine pattern.
