Patent ID: 8781605

Claim:
An assembly for introducing a leadless intra-cardiac medical device within a heart of a patient, said assembly comprising: a sheath having a first internal passage and a second internal passage, wherein the first internal passage and the second internal passage extend parallel to one another along a length of the sheath, wherein the sheath is configured to be maneuvered into the heart of the patient; a first body having a housing retained within the first internal passage, wherein the housing is configured to be pushed out of the sheath, the housing having a first anchoring member configured to anchor the housing to a first implant location within the heart; a second body having an electrode trailing the housing within the second internal passage, wherein the second body is discrete from the first body, wherein the electrode is also configured to be pushed out of the sheath, the electrode having a second anchoring member configured to anchor the electrode to a second implant location within the heart; and a conductive wire mechanically and electrically connecting the housing to the electrode, wherein movement of the housing out of the sheath causes the electrode to follow the movement to a distal end of the sheath due to the conductive wire.
