摘要:
An adapter for coupling a pair of implantable neurostimulator lead extensions to a connector port of a neurostimulator device includes an elongate body, a connector including eight contacts coupled to a first end of the elongate body, and a housing, which includes two pairs of ports, coupled to a second end of the elongate body. A first pair of ports has openings located on a first face of the housing, and a second pair of ports has openings located on a second face of the housing, wherein the first face is opposite the second face. The adapter connector contacts provide for electrical coupling within the device port, and openings of each of the pairs of adapter housing ports are arranged to receive insertion of side-by-side connector terminals of a plug of each lead extension for electrical coupling within the ports.

摘要:
A low-cost temporary lead for pacing, sensing, monitoring, or defibrillating at least a portion of a human or animal organ, and methods for implanting and making same. The lead has at least two electrodes and distal and proximal ends, and a novel weakened zone disposed between the blunt end of a needle and at least two electrical connectors attached to the proximal end of the lead body. The novel weakened zone permits the needle to be separated from the connectors by application of a sufficiently large bending moment or pulling force thereto. Following separation of the connectors from the needle, the connectors may be attached directly and quickly to an external electrical apparatus.
摘要:
A medical electrical lead, which may be useful in coupling an implantable medical device, is comprised of a first and second lead. The first lead has a first electrode coupled adjacent a distal end portion thereof. The distal end portion of the first lead is anchorable in the coronary sinus of a patient. The second lead is coupled with and moveable along the first lead. The second lead has a second electrode located thereon wherein the position of the first and second electrodes may be varied relative to one another by movement of the second lead along the first lead. A rubber tip holds the relative position of each electrode.
