1. An apparatus used to fabricate a subcutaneous cardiac activity sensing device, comprising:

  • a mold having a cavity adapted to receive a biocompatible injection molding material said mold including at least one injection molding pathway coupling an exterior of the mold to said cavity,wherein said cavity comprises a substantially curve-shaped hollow portion and said cavity includes at least two electrode-receiving structures and a like number of elongated conductor-receiving structures, further wherein said structures cooperate to provide electrical communication between an electrode disposed in an electrode-receiving structure and an elongated conductor disposed in a conductor-receiving structure;

    at least two electrodes each configured to temporarily mechanically couple to the electrode-receiving structures;

    at least two elongated conductors configured to temporarily mechanically couple to the conductor-receiving structures;

    at least one fluid entrance port configured to receive an initial supply of a biocompatible injection molding material; and

    at least fluid exit port configured to receive an excess amount of the biocompatible injection molding material.
