A MEDICAL IMPLANTABLE LEAD AND A METHOD FOR ATTACHING THE SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a medical implantable lead of the type being adapted to be implanted into a human or animal body and attached with a distal end to an organ inside the body, comprising a helix (1 ) of a helical wire in the distal end which is adapted to be screwed into the organ. In addition to the first helix, the lead also comprises a second helix (2) of a helical wire, the second helix having the same diameter, the same pitch and being intertwined with the helical wire of the first helix and which, upon rotation of the first helix, will be rotated and screwed into the tissue. The first helix is electrically non-conductive whereas the second helix is electrically conductive. The invention also relates to a method for attaching a medical implantable lead to an organ inside a human or animal body.
