Abstract: One aspect provides a housing for an implantable medical device, the housing including a metal substrate having an external surface, and a polymer coating disposed on the external surface of the metal housing, the polymer coating comprising at least one layer of polymer material.

Abstract: One aspect is a method of fabricating a housing for an implantable medical device, including forming a first housing portion of metal using an additive manufacturing process such that features are integrated into the first portion. A second housing portion of metal is also formed. The first and second housing portions are joining thereby sealing an internal space of the housing within first and second portions and fully containing the features such that they are hermetically sealed relative to an external space outside the housing.

Abstract: One aspect is a housing for an implantable medical device, including first housing portion of metal, an intermediate portion of metal and having first and second sides opposite one another and having integrated features, and a second housing portion of metal. The first housing portion is sealed to the first side of the intermediate portion and the second housing portion is sealed to the second side of the intermediate portion thereby forming an housing internal space within first and second housing portions and containing the intermediate portion and its features, such that the features are hermetically sealed within the housing relative to an external space that is outside the housing.

Abstract: On aspect is a housing for an implantable medical device, including a first portion of metal and having integrated features and a second portion also of metal. The first and second portions are sealed together thereby forming the housing with an internal space that is within first and second portions and that fully contains the features such that they are hermetically sealed relative to an external space outside the housing.
