Abstract
An implantable medical device includes a header body and a septum assembly. The header body includes a first welding surface and a septum bore extending inwardly from an outer surface to an inner cavity. The septum assembly is at least partially disposed within the septum bore of the header assembly and includes a septum configured to allow insertion of a tool through the septum into the inner cavity and to otherwise provide a seal. The septum assembly further includes a retainer within which at least a portion of the septum is retained. The retainer includes a welding feature coupled to the retainer body, the welding feature providing a second welding surface. The retainer is coupled to the header body by welding the first welding surface to the second welding surface.
