Abstract: An implantable medical device having a housing that encloses a pulse generator and a sensing module includes a housing-based cathode electrode electrically coupled to the pulse generator and to the sensing module. A sensing extension extending from the housing proximal end includes an anode electrode electrically coupled to the sensing module for sensing cardiac electrical signals. The sensing extension includes a flotation member that causes the sensing extension to extend away from the housing along a direction of flowing blood when the implantable medical device is deployed within a cardiovascular system of a patient.

Abstract: Various fixation techniques for implantable medical device (IMDs) are described. In one example, an assembly comprises an IMD; and a set of active fixation tines attached to the IMD. The active fixation tines in the set are deployable from a spring-loaded position in which distal ends of the active fixation tines point away from the IMD to a hooked position in which the active fixation tines bend back towards the IMD. The active fixation tines are configured to secure the IMD to a patient tissue when deployed while the distal ends of the active fixation tines are positioned adjacent to the patient tissue.

Abstract: An inner member of an improved assembly for a delivery system includes a first segment formed by a multi-lumen tubing surrounded by a braided tubing, and a second segment formed by a single-lumen tubing that extends within a distal portion of the braided tubing. The single-lumen tubing accommodates an antenna of a medical device, is in fluid communication with three lumens of the multi-lumen tubing, and opens into a flared distal end of the inner member. A distal-most portion of an outer tube of the system contains the flared distal end and an enclosure of the medical device abutting the distal end. A pull wire of the assembly extends within another lumen of the multi-lumen tubing and between the single-lumen tubing and the distal extent of the braided tubing, and is coupled to a pull band mounted in a cone member that forms the flared distal end.

Abstract: A leadless pacing system includes a leadless pacing device and a sensing extension extending from a housing of the leadless pacing device. The sensing extension includes one or more electrodes with which the leadless pacing device may sense electrical cardiac activity. The one or more electrodes of the sensing extension may be carried by a self-supporting body that is configured to passively position the one or more electrodes proximate or within a chamber of the heart other than the chamber in which the LPD is implanted.

Abstract: Delivery tools of interventional medical systems facilitate deployment of relatively compact implantable medical devices that include extensions, for example, cardiac pacing devices that include an extension for atrial sensing, wherein an entirety of the device is contained within the delivery tool while a distal-most portion of the tool is navigated to a target implant site. Once at the implant site, a device fixation member may be exposed out from a distal opening of the tool, for initial deployment, while the extension remains contained within the delivery tool. The tool includes a grasping mechanism, operable, within and without a lumen of the tool, to alternately grip and release the device extension, for example, to position a distal end of the extension after the tool has been withdrawn from over an entirety of the initially deployed device.

Abstract: An implantable medical device assembly includes a mounting structure, an electrode, and fixation tines. The electrode protrudes from a surface of the structure, offset proximally from a distal end of the structure, and approximately centered between first and second sides of the structure. Each tine extends away from the surface—a first adjacent the first side, and a second adjacent the second side. Each tine is elastically deformable from a relaxed condition, in which the tine extends toward a proximal end of the structure, to an extended condition, in which the tine extends away from the distal end of the structure. A delivery tool has first and second longitudinally extending sidewalls to receive passage of the structure therebetween. When the structure distal end is located between proximal ends of the sidewalls, a rail-like edge of each sidewall receives, and elastically deforms to the extended condition, a corresponding tine.
