Embodiment Construction

[0050] Implantable monitors can be configured to monitor various physiological parameters and / or provide therapy to a patient. Implantable monitors may be implanted subcutaneously in an implant site or pocket in the chest or abdominal cavity of a patient. An inappropriate implant location may result in poor acquisition of physiological parameters and / or inability to deliver therapy. Improper balloon formation may result in ejection of the implant device from the balloon. Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to facilitating placement of implantable monitors within a patient. For example, various aspects relate to facilitating an operative balloon forming configuration (eg, depth, width, length, and angle) and an operative balloon location for an implantable monitor.

[0051] figure 1 An example introducer 100 is shown for facilitating placement of an implantable monitor in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. Introducer 100 may include a bo...

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to Provisional Application No. 62 / 420,419, filed November 10, 2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to medical devices and methods of forming a balloon for an implantable monitor in a patient. According to some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to devices and methods for facilitating placement of implantable monitors. Background technique [0004] The medical device can be implanted subcutaneously under the patient's skin with minimal intervention and without positioning the device deeply within the patient's body. Improper positioning of functional aspects of the device may result in poor performance. This may include, for example, forming a balloon that is too large for the medical device, forming a balloon with an inappropriate size, and / or implanting the medical device in an inappropriate ...
