ABSTRACT:
Electrode catheters for rapid endocardial insertion and for interconnection with a pacemaker include a flexible conductor having an outer, electrically insulating sheath about the conductor with a curve, bend or other portion at the distal end of the catheter. A wing extends laterally from the catheter at the proximal end, and has an established relationship between the lateral direction of the wing and the curve, bend or other portion allowing the physician to control the orientation of the distal end after insertion to permit the desired positioning of the curve, bend or other portion within the heart. The wing may then be used to stabilize the electrode by taping to the patient's skin.
