Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An implantable lead for placement by means of a guide wire passing therethrough. The lead has an elongated insulative lead body with an axially extending lumen through at least a distal portion of the lead body. A conductor is mounted within and extends to an electrode assembly mounted to a distal portion of the lead body. A seal housing with a seal located therein located at a distal end of the lead body. The seal is located generally perpendicular to the axis of the lead body and is concave on both its proximal and distal sides. The housing is provided with a cavity adjacent each of the seal's proximal and distal sides, into which the seal may be deflected. The electrode assembly may be mounted to the seal housing.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
In conjunction with the above, we claim: 1. An implantable lead, comprising: an elongated insulative lead body having an axially extending lumen through at least a distal portion of the lead body; an elongated conductor mounted within the lead body and extending along the lead body; an electrode assembly mounted to a distal portion of the lead body and coupled to the elongated conductor; and a seal housing located at a distal end of the lead body, having a distal opening and…
