An implantable medical device comprises a housing having a proximal end and a distal end and a longitudinal axis. A first set of anchoring members are operatively connected to the proximal end of the housing. A second set of anchoring members are operatively connected to the distal end of the housing. The first set of anchoring members and the second set of anchoring members are movable between a collapsed position and a deployed position. The collapsed position is defined as a position whereby the first set of anchoring members and the second set of anchoring members are substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing. The deployed position is defined as a position whereby the first set of anchoring members and the second set of anchoring members are substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing. Each anchoring member of the first set of anchoring members and the second set of anchoring members comprise a ring member wherein each ring member has a tissue engaging surface thereon.
