A medical device implant carrier for fragile medical implants

Abstract

A medical implant device (100) is disclosed that can protect and shield an implant (101) as the implant (101) moves through body tissue. The medical implant device (100) can comprise a main body portion (110) having a payload opening (111) to receive a payload (i.e., an implant). The medical implant device (100) can also comprise a tapered nose portion (120) at a front end (103a) of the medical implant device (100) extending from the main body portion (110) and configured to penetrate body tissue. In addition, the medical implant device (100) can comprise a payload coupling interface (130) configured to couple the implant (101) to the main body portion (110).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
