ABSTRACT:
An implant medical device system with an implant lead system e.g. a heart pacing probe system, connectable thereto provides for at least three implant leads to be connected by a single plug-socket assembly to the medical device system, e.g. a pacemaker. Two contacts on the outside of a connector of this invention form respective electrical contacts with contact areas on a socket made to acceptable medical industry approved structures for bipolar connection systems and feature identical outer diameters. The additional contacts are formed in a way that a pin is mounted in the socket and protrudes into the inner lumen of the connector making additional contacts on the inner side of the central lumen within the connector. Appropriate sealing means ensure the adequate insulation for the additional contacts. The total size of this multicontact connection system stays within the limits of a standard bipolar system, and is interchangable with standard bipolar connection means.
