Auxiliary stimulation pole for heart stimulation lead and lead correspondingly equipped therewith

摘要

The auxiliary stimulation pole consists of a branch (3) with a spiral-wound mono- or multi-filament conductor (4), connected by one end to the main (1) or other conductor of a heart pacemaker probe, with a connector at its other end for an auxiliary stimulation source. The auxiliary stimulation pole consists of a branch (3) with a spiral-wound mono- or multi-filament conductor (4), connected by one end to the main (1) or other conductor of a heart pacemaker probe, with a connector at its other end for an auxiliary stimulation source. The branch is connected to the main or other conductor by a sleeve (2) of a conductive material that surrounds the main/other conductor and is welded to it, and the branch conductor is wound round the sleeve and also welded to it. The joint between the branch and main or other conductor is enclosed in a cover (6) of an electrically insulating material, and the connecting end of the branch comprises a tubular guide (5) of an insulating material with an inner plug of a substance that can be pierced while retaining its sealing capacity.
