摘要:
A medical implantable lead has a proximal end and a distal end, and a flexible flat elongate body. The elongate body includes a layer of strip conductors extending along the length of the flat elongate body, a top insulating layer, and a bottom insulating layer. The layer of strip conductors is sealingly enclosed between the top and bottom insulating layers, and at least a major portion of the flat elongate body is twisted into an elongate helical portion having a central cavity extending longitudinally of the helical portion.

For treatment of cardiac tissue of a heart of a patient with therapeutic light using an implantable medical device connectable to at least one medical lead carrying electrodes and at least one fixation element that fixes the lead at a fixation area of the cardiac tissue, therapeutic light is emitted toward the at least one fixation area of cardiac tissue and/or toward a contact area between the at least one electrode and cardiac tissue using an intracorporeal light emitter.
摘要:
A tissue stimulating device that provides biological stimulation of tissue has a release surface adapted for arrangement adjacent to a tissue to be stimulated. An agent reservoir of the device includes an ionic agent capable of causing a stimulation if present at sufficient high extracellular concentration close to the tissue. An agent releaser is provided in the device for releasing a selected amount of the ionic agent from the agent reservoir to an outside of the release surface at a stimulation occasion for stimulating the tissue. The ionic agent will cause a temporary change in ion permeability of the tissue cell membranes and a depolarization of the tissue cells.

摘要:
In an implantable medical device and a method for treating cardiac tissue of a heart of a patient with therapeutic light, a myocardial infarction is detected and a location the myocardial infarction is identified. A therapy session is initiated by selectively activating one or more of a number of light emitting units arranged in at least one medical lead connectable to the implantable medical device, to emit therapeutic light toward the detected location of the myocardial infarction upon detection of an occurrence of the myocardial infarction.
