Abstract
The pacing lead assembly includes an electrical conductor, for example, a flexible conductive wire, a terminal electrically connected to one end of the conductor, an insulative coating extending over a major portion of the length of the conductor, and an electrode coupled to the other end of the conductor. The electrode includes a conductive substrate having a smooth surface and being of generally a spherical configuration. The substrate is preferably covered by two layers of woven mesh screen which are bound onto the smooth surface of the substrate to thereby provide an electrode to which tissue from an organ to be stimulated may bond.
