ABSTRACT:
A body implantable lead and insertion tool for attaching the lead to an internal body organ. The lead carries an electrode having first and second spaced organ engaging pincers. The insertion tool comprises jaws for firmly grasping the first and second spaced organ engaging pincers for facilitating the attachment thereof to a fold of the internal organ between the pincers. The pincers may be mechanically deformed to a closed position through opposing sides of the body organ fold by the application of a mechanical deforming force to and through the insertion tool. The tool also has a stop member for limiting the deformation of the first and second spaced organ engaging pincers to a predetermined extent.
