Abstract
A biostimulator and a biostimulator system for septal pacing, is described. The biostimulator includes an articulation to allow an electrode axis of a pacing electrode to be directed differently than a housing axis of a housing. The housing contains electrical circuitry that is electrically connected to the pacing electrode. The differently directed axes allow the pacing electrode to affix to target tissue of an interventricular septal wall of a heart when the housing of the biostimulator is located near an apex of the heart. The articulation can include a flexible portion of an extension, a hinge, or a tether. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
