Abstract

See full text

This document discusses, among other things, a medical device including an implantable medical device casing including an opening having an inner surface, a screw, and a non-conductive sleeve configured to fit within the opening, the non-conductive sleeve having an outer surface and an inner surface. An example screw includes a top portion including a driver interface, and a threaded bottom portion, at least one of the top portion and the bottom portion being non-conductive. The sleeve and implantable medical device casing are adapted to sealingly engage with the screw when assembled. In another example, a screw includes a compressible rib that forms a seal with a medical device. In an example method, a screw is pressed against a compressible component such as a sleeve or rib to form a seal against a medical device.
