Abstract
An implantable electrode lead excelling in workablity during the introduction and in fastness of fixing by ligation is provided. This implantable electrode lead comprises a lubricating coat layer provided on an insulating coat over a length of at least not less than 100 mm and to a position at a distance of not more than 300 mm from the distal end of the implantable electrode lead. When this lead further comprises on the more proximal end side of the lubricating coat layer a section having regions containing a lubricating coat layer and regions containing no lubricating coat layer formed alternately therein, the workablity during the introduction can be attained and the fastness of fixing by ligation can be also secured.
