Abstract
An implantable medical lead comprising a lead body defining a lumen. The lead body includes one or more tines substantially at a distal end of the lead body. An inner member extending within the lead body lumen is configured to rotate relative to the lead body and configured to cause a rotation of a dilator. The dilator is configured such that the rotation causes or enables a lateral translation of the dilator from a first position proximal to a lead body opening to a second position distal to the lead body opening. The implantable medical lead may include a probe wire configured to slidably translate through an inner lumen of the dilator.
