Abstract:
Electrode structures for transvascular nerve stimulation combine electrodes with an electrically-insulating backing layer. The backing layer increases the electrical impedance of electrical paths through blood in a lumen of a blood vessel and consequently increases the flow of electrical current through surrounding tissues. The electrode structures may be applied to stimulate nerves such as the phrenic, vagus, trigeminal, obturator or other nerves.

Claim (Index 30):
The method of  claim 27 , wherein the positioning step includes positioning the first electrodes along a line generally parallel to the phrenic nerve, and the stimulating step includes transmitting an electric current from only a portion of a circumference of the lead structure.
