Multi-conductor lead configurations useful with medical device systems and methods for making and using them

摘要: A multiple-conductor electrical lead for use with medical device systems and a method of manufacture is disclosed. The comprises central core has at least one conductor, typically in the form ribbon cable, coiled around it along its length. Typically or more cables each comprise plurality separate conductors both coupled together their lengths series electrically insulated from another an insulating material. material core, e.g. polyester, stainless steel, nickel titanium, structural configuration, wrapping pitch cable number cables, are selected based on desired mechanical characteristics. Such leads useful, example, analyte sensor such as amperometric glucose used management diabetes.
