Abstract:
A leadless cardiac pacemaker (LCP) may be deployed within a patient's vasculature at a location near the patient's heart in order to pace the patient's heart and/or to sense electrical activity within the patient's heart. In some cases, an LCP may be implanted within the patient's superior vena cava or inferior vena cava. The LCP may include an expandable anchoring mechanism configured to secure the LCP in place.
