摘要 |
The temporary pacing lead assembly (10) includes an electrically conductive flexible wire (14), a terminal member (16) electrically connected to one end of the conductive wire (14), an insulative coating or sheath (24) extending over substantially the entire length of the wire (14) and an electrode (12) electrically connected to the other end of the conductive wire (14). An arrow-shaped anchoring device (34) is carried by the electrode (12) for attaching the electrode (12) to the endocavitary wall of an organ to be stimulated. An anchor release mechanism (62, 60, 90) is coupled to the arrow-shaped anchoring device (34) for subsequent removal of the anchoring device (34) from the endocavitary wall.
