    摘要: An implantable lead including a lead body including an outer surface, a proximal end, a distal end, and at least one electrode; an electrically insulating member that extends axially over a first portion of the outer surface of the lead body between the proximal end and distal end, the electrically insulating member defining at least one aperture that exposes a first portion of the at least one electrode when in a first position over the lead body; and a reinforcement member formed at least partially of a different material than the insulating member and coupled to the insulating member, the reinforcement member extending axially over the outer surface of the lead body between the insulating member and proximal end. The reinforcement member may be configured to transfer at least one of a radial or axial force from a proximal portion of the reinforcement member to the insulating member, wherein the at least one of radial or axial force transferred to the insulating member is sufficient to move the insulating member over the outer surface of the lead body. In some examples, the lead may further include a deployable lobe member configured to anchor the reinforcement member and insulating member adjacent a tissue site within a patient.

    摘要: An implantable medical device system and associated method monitor changes in transimpedance in a body tissue due to changes in cardiac pulsatility. A first dipole is used to deliver a non-stimulating electrical current. The first dipole includes a first electrode and a second electrode adapted to be deployed along a first body location. A second dipole is used to measure a voltage resulting from the non-stimulating electrical current being conducted through a portion of a patient's body. The second dipole includes a third electrode and a fourth electrode different than the first electrode and the second electrode and adapted to be deployed along a second body location spaced apart from the first body location.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for positioning a lead within an anatomy is disclosed. The apparatus can be tracked relative to the anatomy to determine the position of selected portions of the anatomy. The positions of the portions of the anatomy can be used in determining an appropriate lead length to be positioned within the anatomy. Additionally, a determination of a lead length can be based upon statistical or acquired data of a selected population, according to an appropriate method.

    摘要: Aspects of the present disclosure include a medical device system including an implantable medical device and an external device with three or more electrodes configured to contact a patient's skin. The external device either transmits or receives a test signal to or from the implantable medical device using a plurality of possible receive dipoles, where each possible receive dipole is formed by a pair of electrodes. A signal quality monitor, either at the implantable medical device or at the external device, measures a signal quality for the possible receive dipoles.
