    Abstract: A lead construction includes a lead body, an electrically conductive element disposed therein, and a shield layer disposed over the conductive element formed from a composite material comprising a polymer material and a non-ferrous particulate material. The non-ferrous material can include gold, platinum, iridium, nickel, cobalt, chromium, molybdenum, carbon/graphite powders, and alloys thereof. The composite material has a non-ferrous particulate content of from about 40 to 90 volume percent, and the shield layer has a thickness of from about 0.1 to 1 mm. The composite material forms an electrically conductive layer when exposed to RF having a frequency of greater than about 64 MHz. A layer of insulating material may be interposed between the shield layer and the conductive element. The shield layer can be part of the lead body, can be an intermediate layer within the lead body, or can be an outer surface of the lead body.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates in some aspects to an implantable pressure sensor and a method of measuring pressure. In some embodiments pressure may be measured through the use of an implantable lead incorporating one or more pressure sensors. In some aspects a pressure sensor is implemented in a micro-electromechanical system (“MEMS”) that employs direct mechanical sensing. A biocompatible material is attached to one or more portions of the MEMS sensor to facilitate implant in a body of a patient. The MEMS sensor may thus be incorporated into an implantable lead for measuring blood pressure in, for example, one or more chambers of the patient's heart.

    Abstract: Implantable medical leads have reduced diameter while providing for optimized mechanical and electrical properties, by reducing the diameters of the conducting cables used within the leads for sensing and delivery of therapeutic electrical stimulation. In an embodiment, conducting filaments within a cable have oval cross-sectional areas. Suitably orienting the oval filaments increases the contact surface between adjacent filaments, broadly distributing the pressure between filaments and reducing fretting fatigue, while the oval cross-sectional area also increases conductivity. In an embodiment, non-conducting coatings around filaments within a cable, or around groups of filaments organized into cable-layers, reduce fretting fatigue. In an embodiment, the cross-sectional area of filaments decreases as the filaments are positioned at increasing radial distances from the center of the cable. In an embodiment, the relative composition of various filament metals and/or alloys is varied in filaments at different radial distances from the center of the cable.
