Abstract: An implantable medical electrical lead connectable to an electrical header of an implantable medical device includes a lead body extending from a proximal end to a distal end, a lead terminal disposed at the proximal end of the lead body and configured to couple the lead to the electrical header, and a lead boot disposed at the lead terminal. The lead boot includes a strain relief portion and a seal portion. The strain relief portion is formed of a first elastic polymer and the seal portion is formed of a second elastic polymer. The first elastic polymer is different from the second elastic polymer.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to implantable medical devices. According to an exemplary embodiment, a method for forming an electrode on an implantable medical device (IMD), comprises forming a nonconductive body comprising a well having a bottom surface and at least one side surface extending from the bottom surface. The method further comprises forming a conduit through the bottom surface and inserting the nonconductive body into an opening in an external surface of the IMD. The method also comprises depositing conductive material into the well and coupling the conductive material to a circuit of the IMD via the conduit through the bottom surface of the well.

Abstract: A method includes providing a mold defining a mold cavity for receiving material to be molded into a molded part, positioning an insert at least partially in the mold such that a portion of the insert defines a portion of the mold cavity, and injecting the material into the mold cavity to substantially fill the mold cavity to form the molded part. The molded par can then be removed from the mold and the insert can be removed from the molded part. The mold can include silicone and the insert can include polyoxymethylene.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to implantable medical device (IMD) enclosures. In an exemplary embodiment, an IMD comprises: a housing comprising an open end and a header defining a cavity and comprising at least one conduit through a wall of the header, wherein the header is formed from a non-conductive material. Further, the IMD comprises a coupling member comprising a flange, wherein the flange is configured to be received by the open end of the housing and wherein the flange and the open end of the housing at least partially overlap along an axial direction of the IMD when the flange is received by the open end. Additionally, the IMD comprises an electrode arranged on an outer surface of the header and a feedthrough coupled to the electrode and extending through the conduit of the header, wherein the feedthrough is configured to be coupled to internal circuitry housed within the IMD. Further, the IMD comprises a ring forming a hermetic seal between the coupling member and the header.
