Apparatus and methods for securing a therapy delivery device relative to a
burr hole. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a base that is
securable to bone, without the use of fasteners, either before or after
insertion of the therapy delivery device into the burr hole. The
apparatus may further include a stabilizer that may be engaged with both
the base and the therapy delivery device while the delivery device is
held with positioning apparatus. The base and/or stabilizer may
frictionally engage the delivery device, e.g., receive it with
interference, to secure the device in two or more non-parallel
directions. In some embodiments, at least the stabilizer may include a
surface coating or treatment operable to enhance frictional engagement
with the therapy delivery device.
