摘要：
An implanted medical system includes a medical lead, an anchoring device and at least one suture secured circumferentially about the anchoring device to cause compression of the anchoring device on the medical lead. In particular, the anchoring device is received coaxially over the medical lead and includes an elastomeric sleeve and a compression governor. The elastomeric sleeve has a substantially elongate, hollow, and tubular body. The compression governor is substantially more rigid than the elastomeric sleeve and is coaxially secured to the elastomeric sleeve. The compression governor defines an inner bore having an effective diameter and is adapted to limit compression at a pre-selected minimum effective diameter to limit compressive forces exerted on the lead by the anchoring device.
