Zusammenfassung:The present technology is generally directed to delivery systems for injected neurostimulation devices, and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, a delivery system includes a body having an at least partially hollow interior; an adjustable sheath defining a lumen, the adjustable sheath including (i) a first portion positioned within the interior of the body and (ii) a second portion extending beyond the interior; and an actuation mechanism operably coupled to the body and the adjustable sheath. The actuation mechanism can be operable to move the adjustable sheath to change a length of the second portion. A user can operate the delivery system to position an implantable device at or near a target location within a patient. In some instances, the user may use image-based navigation and/or stimulation-based navigation to identify the position of the delivery system and/or the implantable device relative to target location.
