Zusammenfassung:An implantable medical device may include a plurality of electrical components connected to form operational circuitry, a canister shaped for housing the operational circuitry, and a dampening layer configured to reduce internal motion between the operational circuitry and at least one of a plurality of additional component within the canister, the dampening layer selectively disposed over the operational circuitry but not over the at least one additional component, the dampening layer providing electrical isolation to the operational circuitry, the dampening layer comprising a moldable material in direct contact with an inner surface of the canister. Methods of manufacturing such a medical device are also disclosed.
