Abstract: Delivery devices, systems, and methods for delivering implantable leadless pacing devices are disclosed. An example delivery device may include an intermediate tubular member and an inner tubular member slidably disposed within a lumen of the intermediate tubular member. A distal holding section may extend distally of a distal end of the intermediate tubular member and define a cavity therein for receiving an implantable leadless pacing device. At least a portion of the lumen of the inner tubular member may be bifurcated to form a first lumen and a second lumen.

Abstract: Catheter and implantable leadless pacing devices, systems, and methods utilizing catheters and implantable leadless pacing devices are disclosed. An example catheter system may include a holding structure extending distally from a tubular member. An implantable device, such as a leadless pacing device, may be located within a cavity of the holding structure. The holding structure may include one or more electrical ports adjacent the proximal end of the holding structure and adjacent or proximal of the proximal end of the implantable device. The electrical ports may provide a conductive pathway extending through the distal structure to allow electrical signals to pass through the distal structure to and/or from the implantable device.

Abstract: Delivery devices, systems, and methods for delivering implantable leadless pacing devices are disclosed. An example delivery system may comprise a delivery device, an implantable leadless pacing device, and a tether. The tether may be made of a material which allows for a lubricious, strong, no stretch, no memory tether. The tether may releasably secure the implantable leadless pacing device to the delivery device.

Abstract: A method for producing an antimicrobial coating on a surface. The method includes mixing a parylene dimer and an antimicrobial agent to form a mixture, heating the mixture to sublimate the parylene dimer and suspend the antimicrobial agent within the sublimated parylene dimer, pyrolyzing the sublimated parylene dimer to form a parylene monomer while the antimicrobial agent is suspended within the parylene monomer, and condensing the parylene monomer and the antimicrobial agent together on the surface to polymerize the parylene monomer and form a coating containing a parylene polymer and the antimicrobial agent.
