In one embodiment, the implantation techniques and instruments of the present invention are adapted for implanting an IID having only a single anchoring arrangement positioned proximate a distal portion of the device for anchoring within a vessel located superior to the heart, i.e. above the heart in a direction toward the head of a patient. Other embodiments of the invention include various methods and tools for delivering and implanting an IID, delivering and securing an anchor, and delivering and implanting one or more leads.
