Abstract
A subcutaneously implantable device includes a housing, a clip attached to a top side of the housing that is configured to anchor the device to a bone, and an electrode that is configured to contact an organ. The clip includes a top portion that is rigid, a bottom portion that is rigid, and an intermediate portion between the top portion and the bottom portion that is configured to permit movement of the top portion with respect to the bottom portion and thereby apply force onto the bone between the top portion and the bottom portion.
Claims20
A subcutaneously implantable device comprising:
- a housing;
- a clip attached to a top side of the housing that is configured to anchor the device to a muscle, a bone, and/or a first tissue;
- a first electrode electrically coupled to the housing and configured to contact a left ventricle of a heart of a patient;
- a second electrode electrically coupled to the housing and configured to contact a right ventricle of the heart of the patient;
- and
- circuitry in the housing in electrical communication with the first electrode that is configured to deliver electrical stimulation to the left ventricle and in electrical communication with the second electrode that is configured to deliver electrical stimulation to the right ventricle of the heart.
A subcutaneously implantable device comprising:
- a housing;
- a clip attached to a top side of the housing that is configured to anchor the device to a xiphoid process and/or a sternum of a patient;
- a first electrode electrically coupled to the housing and configured to contact a left ventricle or a right ventricle of a heart of the patient;
