摘要： A lead has a flexible lead body which extends from a proximal end to a distal end. The lead body has a conductor coupled with an electrode. At least a portion of the flexible lead body includes a polymer of vinylidene fluoride, or a polymer of vinylidene fluoride and silicone rubber. The polymer of vinylidene fluoride includes, but is not limited to, a homopolymer, a copolymer, or a terpolymer.

摘要： An apparatus includes a lead body extending from a proximal end to a distal end and having an intermediate portion therebetween. The lead body includes two or more individually insulated conductors, where a first conductor traverses along less than an entire length of the lead body and a second conductor traverses from the proximal end to the distal end of the lead body. Optionally, the first conductor has a different material than the second conductor, for instance having differing electrical properties and/or differing stiffnesses. A method includes varying the stiffness of a coiled conductor assembly including winding a plurality of conductors to form the coiled conductor assembly, and pulling at least one loop of a first conductor away from the coiled conductor assembly.

摘要翻译： 一种装置包括从近端延伸到远端并且在其间具有中间部分的引线体。 引线体包括两个或更多个单独绝缘的导体，其中第一导体沿着引线主体的小于整个长度横穿，并且第二导体从引线主体的近端穿过远端。 可选地，第一导体具有与第二导体不同的材料，例如具有不同的电特性和/或不同的刚度。 一种方法包括改变线圈导体组件的刚度，包括缠绕多个导体以形成线圈导体组件，以及将第一导体的至少一个环拉离线圈导体组件。
