Abstract
A lead for an implantable stimulation device for cardiac stimulation of a patient generally extends along a longitudinal axis. The lead comprises a body section, a distal lead section extending from the body section along the longitudinal axis and forming a distal end, a first electrode device arranged on the distal lead section for at least one of transmitting an electrical pacing signal and sensing an electrical sense signal, the first electrode device being configured for placement in or on intra-cardiac tissue, and a second electrode device arranged on the body section for emitting an electrical defibrillation signal. The distal lead section in at least one portion comprises a reduced bending stiffness with respect to at least a portion of said body section.
