MEDICAL ELECTRICAL LEAD CONNECTION SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

An electrical connection assembly (20) of a medical device (100) includes a base (27) mounted to the device, a cap (26) reversibly engagable with the base, and a plurality of electrical contact surfaces (24) held within a cavity (275) of the base; each contact surface forms a portion of a perimeter of an area for receiving a lead connector (140) . The assembly further includes a sealing member (25) , which is also held in the base cavity and surrounds the plurality of contact surfaces,- the sealing member includes at least one interior surface (210) that forms another portion of the perimeter of the area for receiving the lead connector, and opposing outer tapered surfaces (259) that interface with opposing tapering sidewalls (29) of the base cavity. When the cap is engaged with the base, the at least one interior surface (210) of the sealing member is compressed about the lead connector inserted within the area.
