ABSTRACT:
An implantable lead having an elongated lead body that includes an electrical conductor extending between a distal end of the lead body and a proximal end of the lead body is disclosed. The lead further includes an electrode formed at the distal end of the lead body, the electrode being coupled to the electrical conductor and one or more passive fixation mesh sections coupled to the distal end of the lead body that promotes tissue over growth.
