The present invention relates to an implantable lead comprising at least one conductive wire and one electrical connector, the electrical connector configured to be connected to an implantable medical device such as a cardiac stimulation, defibrillation and/or neuromodulation device, wherein the electrical connection between the conductive wire and the connector is effected by a first hypotube welded to the conductive wire and welded to a second hypotube of the electrical connector. The present invention also relates to a method for electrically connecting the at least one conductive wire of the implantable lead to the electrical connector.

Implantable lead

The present invention relates to an implantable lead comprising at least one conductive wire and a connector. The connector is configured to be connected to an implantable medical device, such as a cardiac stimulation, a defibrillation or/and a neuromodulation device, and further comprising a strain relief device extending longitudinally along an axis from one end of the connector and essentially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the connector. The conductive wire is deflected by a deflection wall of the strain relief device such that the deflection wall of the strain relief device blocks the conductive wire against the deflection wall when the conductive wire is stressed in tension, and the deflection wall extends along an axis which is misaligned with the longitudinal axis of the strain relief device.

Implantable medical lead with strain relief device

The present invention relates to a method for connecting a strand of a multi-strand cable to an electrode of an implantable medical device. The method includes cutting a strand of the multi-strand cable lifting at least one of the free ends, stripping the end of the lifted strand, placing an electrode around the multi-strand cable to partially cover the end of the lifted and stripped stand, and connecting at least one portion of the stripped end of the strand to the electrode.
