摘要:
A polymer device configured to be implanted into a subcutaneous pocket to prevent infection, the pocket formed to contain an implantable medical device housing. The polymer device includes a structure made of a bioresorbable polymer, and an antimicrobial agent configured to elute from the structure. The polymer device is configured to cover less than about 20% of the surface area of the implantable medical device housing when implanted into the subcutaneous pocket.
