    • A medical lead having a diameter of no greater than 3 French and employing an insulation material that is substantially stiffer than would normally be employed in the context of a permanently implantable cardiac pacing lead is disclosed. A material having a Young's modulus of at least 25,000 pounds per square inch such as Pellethane 2363-75D, or an even stiffer polymer, is used to provide a lead body that does not exhibit a whip-like effect in response to such movement as would occur during a heart beat. In order to prevent the increased stiffness of the lead body from increasing the possibility that the distal lead tip will perforate the heart tissue, the lead is provided with a distal surface that is not reduced in size. This surface reduces the pressure exerted by the distal lead tip upon body tissue to no greater than 3.6 pounds per square inch. The distal tip may carry an electrode of the same or substantially smaller surface area, allowing the lead to retain desirable electrical characteristics for sensing of cardiac depolarizations and delivery of cardiac pacing pulses.
    • 公开了一种直径不大于3法国的医用引线,并且采用比通常在永久植入式心脏起搏引线的上下文中更加坚硬的绝缘材料。 使用具有至少25,000磅/平方英寸的杨氏模量的材料,例如Pellethane 2363-75D或甚至更硬的聚合物,以提供引线体,其不响应于这样的运动而呈现鞭状效应 发生在心跳期间。 为了防止引线体的增加的刚度增加远侧引线端头穿孔心脏组织的可能性,引线设置有未减小的远端表面。 该表面将远端引线尖端施加在身体组织上的压力降低至不大于3.6磅/平方英寸。 远侧末端可以携带相同或基本上较小的表面积的电极,允许引线保持用于感测心脏去极化和心脏起搏脉冲输送的期望的电特性。

    • An implantable lead for establishing electrical contact between a medical device and body tissue, in which an active fixation mechanism secures the lead in place while allowing a distal electrode on the lead to mechanically "float" with respect to the body tissue. In one embodiment, the active fixation mechanism comprises a curved hook disposed on the lead at a point spaced proximally back from the distal end of the lead. The curved hook defines a helix around at least a portion of the lead's circumference. A hollow introducer needle is slidably disposed on the lead. The hollow needle provided with a longitudinal slit in a distal section of is length, such that the distal section of the needle can be advanced over the distal end of the lead, past the fixation hook, which is received in the longitudinal slit. With the needle slid over the distal end of the lead, the needle is stabbed tangentially into an implant site, bringing the fixation hook proximal to the surface of the body tissue. Then, the needle is twisted (bringing about a twisting of the lead), causing the curved fixation hook to pierce and engage the body tissue, securing the lead in place. Then the needle is withdrawn from the body tissue and removed from the lead. In an alternative embodiment, the lead can be placed by an endocardial approach using a flexible cannula with a longitudinally slotted tip.
    • 一种用于在医疗装置和身体组织之间建立电接触的可植入引线,其中主动固定机构将引线固定在适当位置,同时允许引线上的远端电极相对于身体组织机械地“浮动”。 在一个实施例中,主动固定机构包括设置在引线上的远离引导件远端的近距离间隔的点的弯曲钩。 弯曲的钩子围绕引线的周边的至少一部分限定螺旋。 中空导引针可滑动地设置在引线上。 中空针在远端部分设置有长度方向的狭缝,使得针的远端部分能够超过引线的远端延伸穿过容纳在纵向狭缝中的固定钩。 当针滑过导线的远端时,针被切向地刺入植入部位,使固定钩靠近身体组织的表面。 然后,针头扭转(导致引线扭转),导致弯曲的固定钩刺穿并接合身体组织,将导线固定到位。 然后将针从身体组织中取出并从铅中取出。 在替代实施例中,引线可以通过使用具有纵向开口尖端的柔性套管的心内膜方式放置。

    • A single-pass body implantable lead for transvenous insertion through a single vein to simultaneously sense and/or stimulate the tissue of both the right atrium and right ventricle. The lead employs a single bifurcated connector at the proximal end. Insulated conductors for the ventricle and atrium are branched from a single outer sheath. The ventricular and atrial branches are established in fixed relation to one another. The ventricular branch is of sufficient length that it has excess length for the largest heart. The electrode of the ventricular branch is held within the right ventricular apex by tines. The atrial branch has a "J" shape imparted to the conductor coil. The atrial electrode is maintained in position within the right atrial appendage by tines. The ventricular branch is sufficiently flexible such that any excess length is merely coiled in some convenient position. The distal portion of the ventricular branch is made slightly more stiff than the proximal portion causing the excess length to loop within the atrium. Stylets are used to guide insertion.
    • 单通体植入式导线,用于通过单个静脉经静脉插入,以同时感测和/或刺激右心房和右心室的组织。 引线在近端使用单个分叉连接器。 用于心室和心房的绝缘导体从单个外护套分支。 心室和心房分支建立在彼此固定的关系上。 心室分支具有足够的长度,它对于最大的心脏具有多余的长度。 心室分支的电极通过尖齿保持在右心室顶点内。 心房分支具有赋予导体线圈的“J”形状。 心房电极通过尖齿保持在右心耳内的位置。 心室分支具有足够的弹性,使得任何多余的长度仅在一些方便的位置被卷起。 使心室分支的远侧部分比近端部分稍微更硬,导致过度长度在心房内循环。 样式用于指导插入。

    • A body implantable lead of the type having a lead body, at least one electrode carried by the lead body and tissue engaging tines extending at an acute angle from the lead body at a location adjacent the electrode. The present invention correlates the tensile stiffness of the lead body with the stiffness of the tines to optimize the tine holding force. The tines provide an adequate holding force to minimize unintentional lead dislodgements without requiring in an excessive force for intentional dislodgement of the lead for repositioning. Tine length and the angle at which they extend from the lead body are also discussed as affecting the probability of tine engagement with cardiac structure as well as having an effect on the holding force. In a preferred embodiment, the lead body has a spring constant (as defined herein) of 2.0 lb-in./10 in. or less and a tine stiffness (also defined herein) of less than 5.times.10.sup.-3 lb-in..sup.2. The tines are from two to six millimeters long and extend from the lead body at an angle from 30.degree. to 80.degree.. More preferably, the tine stiffness is 3.times.10.sup.-3 lb-in..sup.2 or less with the tines being from four to six millimeters long and forming an angle with the lead body from 45.degree. to 60.degree.. In the preferred embodiments, the exposed surface of the lead body and the tines are formed of a body compatible urethane. In the most preferred embodiment, the tine stiffness is approximately 2.5.times.10.sup.-3 lb-in..sup.2.
    • 具有引线主体的主体可植入引线,由引线主体承载的至少一个电极和在与电极相邻的位置处从引线主体以锐角延伸的组织接合齿。 本发明将引线体的拉伸刚度与齿的刚度相关联,以优化齿保持力。 齿提供足够的持力以最大限度地减少无意的引线移动,而不需要过度的力量有意导致重新定位的引线。 针脚长度和它们从引线体延伸的角度也被讨论为影响与心脏结构接合的可能性以及对保持力的影响。 在优选实施例中,引线本体具有2.0磅/英寸10英寸或更小的弹簧常数(如本文所定义)以及小于5×10 -3磅/英寸2的齿刚度(此处也定义)。 齿长为2〜6毫米,从铅体延伸30度至80度。 更优选的是,齿的刚度为3×10 -3 lb-in.2或更小,齿的长度为4至6毫米,与铅体形成45度至60度的角度。 在优选实施例中,引线体的暴露表面和尖齿由主体相容的聚氨酯形成。 在最优选的实施例中,齿的刚度约为2.5×10 -3 lb-in.2。
