Abstract
A cardiac lead introducing apparatus, the cardiac lead introducing apparatus having a sleeve with a peripheral surface, a first end and a second end, where the sleeve includes an opening extending from the first end to the second end and adapted to hold at least a portion of a cardiac lead. The cardiac lead introducing apparatus further includes a first slit extending from the peripheral surface to the opening and from the first end to the second end which permits the sleeve to separate so the cardiac lead can pass through the cardiac lead introducing apparatus without any longitudinal motion of the device with respect to the cardiac lead. In one embodiment, the diameter of the opening is smaller than the outer diameter of the cardiac lead which permits the cardiac lead to be held static within the introducing apparatus as the lead connector of the cardiac lead is inserted into the socket of an implantable pulse generator connector block.
