Medical fluid delivery system
First Claim
1. A medical fluid delivery system, comprisingan implantable medical lead including a proximal port, a distal port, a lumen extending between the proximal port and the distal port and a distal fixation element adapted to secure the lead to a tissue site such that the distal port is in proximity to the tissue site;
- anda fluid delivery device adapted to pass through the lead proximal port, through the lead lumen and through the lead distal port, the device including a tissue piercing distal tip and a pre-formed curve in proximity to the distal tip such that the tip is directed away from the fixation element after passing beyond the distal port of the lead.

Abstract
A medical fluid delivery system includes an implantable medical lead and a fluid delivery device; the device is adapted to pass through a proximal port, a lumen and a distal port of the lead. The fluid delivery device includes a tissue piercing distal tip and a pre-formed curve in proximity to the distal tip such that the tip is directed away from a lead fixation element after passing beyond the distal port of the lead.
