  • Fixation device for a subcutaneous electrode
    Patent number: 11253696
    Abstract: An illustrative anchoring mechanism is provided for attachment to an implantable subcutaneous lead to facilitate anchoring at the distal tip of the lead. The anchoring mechanism is attached to an opening in a distal portion of a subcutaneous lead prior to implantation. The anchoring mechanism may be designed to avoid covering the sensing electrode of the subcutaneous lead, to prevent interference with sensing. Use of such an apparatus may reduce the number of incisions needed to perform implantation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 24, 2019
    Date of Patent: February 22, 2022
    Assignee: CARDIAC PACEMAKERS, INC.
    Inventors: G. Shantanu Reddy, Andrew L. De Kock, Christopher Alan Fuhs, Jay Overcash, Garth Mindermann
