SUBDERMAL APPLICATOR

摘要

The disclosure is generally related to medical devices, systems, and methods. In particular embodiments, implant applicators may be provided for subdermally inserting an implant. In some aspects, an applicator may include a housing defining a body of the applicator, and a cannula coupled with the housing and extending distally from the body of the applicator. In some embodiments, a cannula guide may extend from the body of the applicator and may help a user align the applicator at a desired angle relative to the skin surface prior to insertion of the cannula into the skin. The applicator may further include a skin guide that limits skin buckling against the applicator housing during cannula insertion into the skin. The cannula may have an implant holding section where an inner surface of the cannula is inwardly indented such that the inner surface of the cannula friction fits with an implant.
