ABSTRACT:
A finishing wire with a ball nose tip is used to secure an implantable device such as a cardiac pacing lead during implantation procedures. The finishing wire includes a proximal shaft, and a ball-nosed distal end. The ball-nosed distal end of the finishing wire is sized to interface with an implantable device having a narrowed distal tip. The length of the finishing wire is greater than the length of the implantable device.
