METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SHUNTING INDUCED CURRENTS IN AN ELECTRICAL LEAD
摘要
An electrical lead end cap includes a body defining a bore therein capable of receiving and retaining an end of an electrical lead and a connector capable of electrically coupling conductors leading to at least two electrodes. A method includes routing an electrical current induced in an electrical lead conductor disposed within body tissue to a plurality of electrodes, electrically coupled with the body tissue, via a circuit within an end cap attached to the electrical lead.
