Abstract:
An anchor for an implantable medical device, anchor delivery tools, kits, and methods, all directed to securing a therapy delivery element at a target location in a patient. An anchor for a therapy delivery element having an outer surface about which the anchor is disposable. The anchor includes a body portion having elastomeric properties, a first opening, a second opening, and a non-linear lumen extending though the body portion from the first opening to the second opening in a relaxed state. The non-linear lumen becomes a linear lumen in a stretched state. The linear lumen of the body portion is adapted to receive the therapy delivery element and the non-linear lumen frictionally engages the outer surface of the therapy delivery element in the relaxed state.
