Abstract
The disclosure describes a medical lead system that includes a first lead portion and a second lead portion. The first lead portion includes a first elongate body extending along a longitudinal axis from a distal end to a proximal end and defining a coupling recess. The second lead portion includes a second elongate body extending along the longitudinal axis from a distal end to a proximal end and a connector defining a channel configured to receive the proximal end of the first lead portion. The connector includes a coupling member configured to, when the first lead portion is inserted into the channel, mechanically engage the coupling recess to secure the first lead portion to the second lead portion at least in an axial direction relative to the longitudinal axis.
