Abstract
Casings for retaining adapter connector modules and implantable electrical devices, and adapter assemblies for retaining implantable medical devices, include first and second opposing plates spaced apart by a gap configured to retain the devices such that sides of the devices are in confronting engagement with the first and second plates when placed the device is held in the gap. The first and second plates may be biased towards one another to assist in retaining the device in the gap. The device and adapter connector module may be arranged such that their thicknesses do not overlap. For example, the device and adapter connector module may be arranged such that a bottom perimeter edge of the adapter connector module abuts or is spaced apart from a top perimeter edge of the device.
