Abstract
Delivery of implantable active agent delivery components includes implanting a distal lead end of a lead into tissue at an implantation site. A delivery stylet is then inserted through a lead lumen of the lead. The delivery stylet includes a stylet body having a distal stylet end and an active agent delivery component detachably coupled to the distal stylet end. The active agent delivery component is inserted into the tissue at the implantation site by extending the distal stylet end of the delivery stylet from a distal lead end of the lead such that the active agent delivery component is inserted into the tissue at the implantation site. The active agent delivery component is then detached within the tissue at the implantation site and the delivery stylet may be retracted and removed from the lead lumen.
