Abstract: Various embodiments of an implantable medical device and a method of implanting such device are disclosed. The device includes a housing having a first major surface, a second major surface, a sidewall that extends between the first major surface and the second major surface, and a port disposed in the sidewall. The sidewall defines a perimeter of the housing. The device further includes an electronic component disposed within the housing, and a cable electrically connected to the electronic component disposed within the housing, where the cable extends through the port. A portion of the cable is adapted to be removably connected to the housing adjacent an outer surface of the sidewall by a fastener such that the portion of the cable extends along at least a portion of the perimeter of the housing when the portion of the cable is removably connected to the housing.

Abstract: A controller implantable within the body of a patient as part of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) system and a method therefore are provided. According to one aspect, the controller includes processing circuitry configured to receive inputs from at least one of: at least one internal component of the LVAD system, at least one external component of the LVAD system, and at least one clinician's device, and determine a charging rate for charging a battery of the LVAD system internal to the patient based on at least one of the received inputs.
