<p>Disclosed is a modular system for providing electrical stimulation, in which a first modular electrode section has a contoured back end configured to engage a contoured front end of another electrode section or a tool that may be used to place the first modular electrode section in the patient's body. The contours of the modular electrode section allow the two components to engage with one another so as to prevent their separation in the horizontal plane, and a lead extending from the first modular electrode is configured to engage keels on the top surface of the second electrode portion or tool, with such keels providing a snap-type attachment between the lead and the second electrode portion or tool, such that the two components may be joined together but easily separated from one another through the intentional separation of the lead from the keels on the second electrode portion or tool.</p> |
