An introducer for facilitating implantation of a therapy element into a patient defines a lumen configured to receive the therapy element. At least a portion of the introducer is configured to preferentially flex in at least a first direction over at least a second direction. That is, at least a portion of the introducer is predisposed to bend in a particular direction. In some embodiments, the introducer may also resist bending in one or more directions. |
