Patent ID: 7174220

Claim:
An implantable cardiac stimulation lead system for use with an implantable stimulation device, the lead system comprising: at least a pair of conductors, braided together and extending between proximal and distal ends and co-extruded with flexible resilient insulation material to form a lead body; wherein each of the conductors comprises: a solid core having multi-strand cable; and an outer peripheral surface coated with insulative material; an electrical connector coupled to the proximal end of the lead system for connection with a stimulation device and further comprising at least two terminals electrically connected to respective ones of the at least two conductors; a distal tip electrode; and at least one electrode proximally spaced from the distal tip electrode; a first of the pair of conductors connecting the proximal connector and the distal tip electrode; a second of the pair of conductors connecting the proximal connector and the electrode proximally spaced from the distal tip electrode.
