ABSTRACT:
The multi-conductor lead assembly comprises a first lead, a second lead and a connector assembly for connecting the leads together. The first lead includes a lead body having a distal end portion with a plurality of electrodes thereon, a proximal end portion with a plurality of sleeve electrodes thereon and a plurality of insulated wire conductors within the lead body and electrically connecting the electrodes on the distal end portion with the sleeve electrodes on the proximal end portion. The second lead includes a lead body with a proximal end, a proximal end portion, a distal end and a distal end portion, and one wire conductor therein. The connector assembly includes a body, the distal end portion of the second lead being received in the body, a connector clip adapted to make electrical contact with a selected one of the plurality of sleeve electrodes on the first lead, an electrical connection between the wire conductor in the second lead and the connector clip, and a closure sleeve for insulating the connection between the connector clip and a selected sleeve electrode.
