摘要： Medical devices and methods for making and using medical devices are disclosed. An example medical device may include an implantable medical device. The implantable medical device may include an implantable pacing member having a housing and a lead input. A lead may be coupled to the lead input. The lead may be designed to extend along a pericardial space, epicardium, or both and engage a heart chamber. A passageway may be defined along a portion of the length of the lead.

摘要： A catheter for delivering a medical electrical lead to a bundle of His from within a right atrium of a heart. The catheter includes a straight portion and a hook portion projecting from a distal end of the straight portion. The hook portion includes a first curved portion, a second curved portion, and a third curved portion. The straight portion and the first curved portion define a plane. The second curved portion extends from a distal end of the first curved portion. The second curved portion curves away from the plane. The third curved portion extends from a distal end of the second curved portion. The third curved portion curves toward the plane. The catheter forms a lumen extending from a proximal end of the straight portion to an opening at a distal end of the third curved portion.

摘要： A terminal tool includes a main body, an electrical connector body, and an electrical connector. The main body includes a distal clamping section and a shaft. The shaft includes a window and a first lumen extending through the shaft for receiving a terminal end of an implantable lead. The electrical connector body includes a second lumen and is independently rotatable with respect to the main body. The shaft at least partially extends through the second lumen. The electrical connector is coupled to the electrical connector body and extends at least partially through the window of the shaft.

摘要： Implantable devices and systems include one or more leads adapted to be emplaced in the internal thoracic vein (ITV) of a patient. The lead may include features to adapt the lead for such placement. An associated device for use with the lead may include operational circuitry adapted for use with a lead having an electrode for sensing and/or therapy purposes coupled thereto. Methods for implantation and use of such devices and systems are disclosed as well.

摘要： Implantation of a cardiac stimulus system using the ITV. Access to the ITV may be performed using the intercostal vein as an access point, and entering the ITV through an ostium therebetween. The intercostal vein may be located on a costal groove on an inferior portion of a rib. Advancement from the intercostal vein to the ITV may then be performed in a superior direction, an inferior direction, or both.
