摘要:
Devices or methods such as for stimulating excitable tissue or sensing physiologic response or other signals are described. An implantable apparatus can comprise an electrostimulation electrode assembly that can include an electrostimulation unit, at least first and second electrodes, and a fixation guide. The electrostimulation unit can generate electrostimulation for stimulating excitable tissue to achieve desired diagnostic or therapeutic effects. The first and second electrodes, coupled to the electrostimulation unit, can deliver the electrostimulation to two or more stimulation sites such as inside two or more heart chambers or on the surface of the heart. The fixation guide can engage and retain a maneuvering device used for steerably positioning and securing the first and second electrostimulation electrodes at respective stimulation site.
