ABSTRACT:
The anchoring device is used to grip and anchor a suture sleeve received around a pacing lead body to underlying tissue. The anchoring device comprises a unitary body having an upper clip formation adapted to be received around a suture sleeve and a lower staple formation having opposed prongs. When the clip formation is closed about a suture sleeve to grasp the suture sleeve to cause the sleeve to grasp a pacing lead body therein, the prongs will pierce and grasp underlying tissue.
