Abstract
Improved methods, systems and tools for implanting cardiac leads associated with intravascular implantable devices (IID) within a patient's heart are disclosed. A method is described for implanting a cardiac lead within a patient's heart wherein the proximal end of the cardiac lead is not accessible for introduction of a steerable stylet. A delivery device is described for guiding a cardiac lead to a desired implant location, the delivery device including a grasper mechanism for releasably holding the cardiac lead. The grasper mechanism is on the distal end of an elongated flexible body, and is operated with a handle located on the proximal end of the flexible body.
