ABSTRACT:
The pacing lead comprises an elongate lead body which is made of pliable insulation material, which has a generally circular cross-section, which has a proximal end and a distal end and which has at least one lumen therein extending substantially the length thereof. At least one distal electrode or sensor is mounted to the lead body at or adjacent the distal end of the lead body. At least one proximal connector is mounted to the lead body at or adjacent the proximal end of the lead body. At least one uninsulated, relaxed, uncoiled wire conductor is loosely and slidably received in the lumen and is made of a material having a high flexibility and bendability such as of a nickel and titanium alloy. The wire conductor has a diameter less than the diameter of the at least one lumen and is connected at each end, respectively, to the distal electrode and the proximal connector.
