In a method, an electrode lead is provided that includes a tubular lead body, an electrode supported by the lead body, a rotatable member, a deployable member and a deployment mechanism. The rotatable member is contained within a distal end of the tubular lead body. The deployable member is attached to the rotatable member and comprises a tissue anchor that includes mesh. Also in the method, the distal end of the tubular lead body is positioned proximate target tissue of a patient. The rotatable member is rotated relative to the tubular lead body. The deployable member is driven along the central axis, out the distal end of the tubular lead body, and into the target tissue using the deployment mechanism responsive to the rotation of the rotatable member. The deployment member does not rotate about the central axis with the rotation of the rotatable member.
