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.

Passive fixation mechanism for epicardial sensing and stimulation lead placed through pericardial access

An implantable myocardial stimulation lead comprises a lead body having a distal end and a proximal end, and an electrical connector carried by the proximal end of the lead body. An electrode header carried by the distal end of the lead body has an axis and includes a helical fixation element extending along the axis, the electrode header having a surface configured to receive a driver for rotating the electrode header to screw the helical fixation element into the tissue of the heart. The lead body carries along its length a strain relief member resisting excessive bending of the lead body.
