Abstract

A leadless pacing device may include a housing having a proximal end and a distal end, and one or more electrodes supported by the housing. The housing may include a body portion and a header. A distal extension may extend distally from the header of the housing, the distal extension including one or more electrodes. The header may include a guide wire port and a guide wire lumen may extend from the guide wire port through the header of the housing and through the distal extension. A fixation member may extend from the header of the housing. The header may be formed from an over mold process.

Dependent claims

A leadless pacing device for delivering electrical stimulation to a heart of a patient, the leadless pacing device comprising:

a housing having a central longitudinal axis, the housing comprising:
a body portion;
and
a header extending distally from the body portion;
a fixation member extending from the header;
a distal extension fixedly connected to the header and extending distally of a distal end of the header, the distal extension extending from the distal end of the header at an oblique angle relative to the central longitudinal axis;
and
a guidewire lumen extending from a guidewire port in a side of the housing to a distal end of the distal extension, wherein a guidewire lumen portion of the distal extension extending at the oblique angle is aligned with a guidewire lumen portion in the housing.
