PACING LEAD TOOL

Abstract

Embodiments are disclosed of a pacing lead tool. The pacing lead tool has a tool body with a proximal body end, a distal body end, and a lumen extending from the proximal body end to the distal body end. The lumen is adapted to receive a proximal lead end of a pacing lead, and is also adapted to receive a stylet therein. A retainer is coupled to, or formed in, the tool body and adapted to engage the stylet when the stylet is inserted in the lumen. The retainer substantially prevents proximal movement of the stylet until a proximal force applied to the stylet exceeds a threshold force.
