摘要: The present invention is a myocardial lead attachment system and method for securing a distal end of a lead within the myocardium of a patient's heart. The system includes an anchor, a tether coupled at a distal end to the anchor and a lead body. The lead body has a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen extending therethrough for receiving the tether. A fixation mechanism is at the distal end of the lead body, and is adapted to collapse to a first configuration during implantation and deploy to a second configuration after implantation.

摘要: A lead for navigating small vessels and a catheter system for implantation of leads into small vessels. Veins that return blood to the heart against the force of gravity often have valves in them to prevent backflow of deoxygenated blood. Leads and catheter systems in accordance with embodiments of the invention allow cannulation and lead implantation in small, tortuous, obstructed, and difficult to access veins enabling a range of stimulation and sensing applications.

摘要: A myocardial lead attachment system for securing a distal end of a lead within a myocardium of a patient's heart. The system includes a lead body, an anchor mechanism formed of a bioabsorbable or biodegradable polymer for engaging a surface of the patient's heart and a surface feature formed on a portion of the lead body for promoting formation of scar tissue around said portion of the lead body.

摘要: An implantable tissue stimulator includes a polymer film capacitor adhered to an inside wall surface of the stimulator's case or housing in a way that minimizes the size and weight of the stimulator device. The energy storage capacitor for the tissue stimulator comprises a monolithic, multi-layer device and where the polymer is a suitable acrylate of a known formulation, over 1500 parallel plate capacitor electrodes can be built it with the height dimension of the resulting capacitor being less than about 3 mms. Instead of forming the capacitor on the inner surface of the stimulator's case in situ, such a capacitor can be formed on a mold member corresponding in shape to the inner surface of the stimulator's case and inserted into the stimulator's case following removal from the mold.
