One aspect relates to an electrode-electrical conductor system for a medical device. The system includes one or more electrically insulated wire(s) or cable(s) wherein. The electrical insulation includes electrical conductor one or more partial opening(s), which is/are arranged on one side of the wire(s) or cable(s), and one or more electrode(s), which is/are mechanically and electrically connected to the wire(s) or cable(s) via the one or more partial opening(s) arranged on one side of the wire(s) or cable(s). The mechanical and electrical connections are made by welding, pressing, swaging, adhesives, brazing, soldering and/or dimples. One aspect also relates to a method for preparing such an electrode-electrical conductor system.

Electrode-electrical conductor system for a medical device

One aspect relates to a medical electrode, having a conductor, an insulation, which surrounds the conductor at least in some sections over its entire circumference, protrusions in the insulation, electrode segments arranged between the protrusions, and insulating areas arranged between the electrode segments, wherein the electrode segments have steps, wherein the steps engage with the insulating areas.

Micro lead for directional stimulation

One aspect is a system for reception or emission of an electrical signal from or into the human or animal body, comprising at least one insulated electrical conductor; a sleeve-shaped electrode that is electrically connected to the electrical conductor and includes an internal side, an external side, and a channel, wherein the channel defines a longitudinal axis along which the conductor is arranged. According to one embodiment, the conductor extends without interruption along the entire area of the electrode, and the electrode further includes a slit that extends from the internal side to the external side of the electrode and in which the conductor is appropriately arranged in the slit such that the electrode forms a direct durable mechanical and electrical connection to the conductor.

Contacting method and system

One aspect relates to a feedthrough system. The feedthrough system includes a feedthrough and a wire. At least a portion of the feedthrough is made of an insulator and at least one area forming an electrically conductive cermet pathway. The cermet pathway may include an electrically conductive metal. The wire may be at least partially connected to the cermet pathway so that the material of the wire forms a joint microstructure with the electrically conductive material in the cermet pathway.
