摘要:
An electrical stimulation lead includes at least one lead body and at least one thin, elongate anchoring element. The lead body defines at least one anchoring lumen extending longitudinally along at least a portion of the lead body and at least one open slot in the lead body where each anchoring lumen is open at one of the at least one open slot. For each anchoring element, the first end of the anchoring element is disposed in one of the at least one anchoring lumen and the second end of the anchoring element is configured and arranged preferentially to extend out of the open slot associated with the anchoring lumen and away from the lead body in a deployed configuration unless the second end is constrained in a constrained configuration adjacent or within the lead body.
