ABSTRACT:
A bipolar electrode lead for medical applications, such as for electrical stimulation of body tissue, has an elongated conductor extending from a source of electrical stimulation to a tissue location to which the electrical stimulation is to be delivered. The conductor is surrounded by electrical insulation. The lead has an exposed electrode tip at the tissue location. The electrical conductor is in the form of a braided hose. The electrical insulation has a gap, which exposes the braided hose conductor, at a location spaced from the electrode tip. The exposed braided conductor functions as the neutral electrode.
