Abstract: An implantable medical device housing has an outer surface and an inner surface that defines an interior cavity. A wire is coupled to the housing outer surface. The wire wholly defines an open aperture for receiving a fixation member. The wire includes a first wire end, a second wire end, and an annular loop between the first and second ends. A cover extends over at least the first end and the second end of the wire.
