ACTIVE CARDIAC ELECTRICAL LEAD

摘要

An active bipolar cardiac electrical lead includes a distal electrode (108), an intermediate connection mount (109), a ring electrode (103), and a tip housing (110). The intermediate connection mount (109) defines a proximal fitting (370) and a distal fitting (374). The ring electrode (103) has an exposed section (356) that sleeves over and engages the proximal fitting (370) of the intermediate connection mount (109) with a snap-fit connection. The intermediate connection mount (109) may connect the ring electrode (103) to the tip housing (110) and provide electrical insulation between the ring electrode (103) and the distal electrode (108).
