Abstract
Methods for transcutaneous charging of an implanted device may include removably coupling a charging device with a carrier having adhesive tabs, the tabs being movable between a first position configured to be spaced away from a skin surface and a second position configured to be urged against the skin surface; engaging a bottom surface of the charging device at least partially against the skin surface with the tabs in the first position; positioning the charging device until it is at least partially positioned over or proximate the implanted medical device; and moving the tabs to the second position so that respective adhesive surfaces of the tabs contact and adhere to the skin of the patient sufficiently to support the charging device coupled with the carrier for a duration of time sufficient to charge the implanted device.
