    • An improved system and method that is capable of delivering multiple electrode assemblies to predetermined implant sites within a body is disclosed. The system includes an elongated member such as an introducer sheath. The introducer includes an elongated channel along at least a distal end portion of the introducer. The elongated channel opens to the exterior surface of the introducer through an elongated slot. One or more electrode assemblies may be retained within the elongated channel such that the leads exit the introducer via the elongated slot. The elongated introducer further includes a lumen that is in fluid communication with channel through openings, or gaps. The electrode assemblies are loaded within the channel at predetermined positions with respect to the openings. A distal end of a stiffening member such as a stylet may then be advanced within the lumen and through a selected one of the openings to engage an electrode assembly. The distal end of the stylet, along with the electrode assembly, is pushed in a distal direction within the channel until the electrode assembly exits the channel at a predetermined implant site. The stylet is then de-coupled from the electrode assembly, and the distal end is again retracted into the lumen. The distal end of the stiffening member may be re-directed into a different opening to engage a second electrode assembly. After the introducer is repositioned at a second implant site, the second electrode assembly may be deployed in a manner similar to that discussed above. The process may be repeated to deploy an array of electrodes. According to one aspect of the invention, the stylet distal end is canted to extend from the lumen of the introducer into the channel.
    • 公开了能够将多个电极组件递送到体内预定植入部位的改进的系统和方法。 该系统包括细长构件,例如导引器护套。 导引器包括沿导引器的至少远端部分的细长通道。 细长通道通过细长的槽向导引器的外表面开口。 一个或多个电极组件可以保持在细长通道内,使得引线经由细长槽离开导引器。 细长导引器还包括与通道通过开口或间隙流体连通的内腔。 电极组件相对于开口在预定位置处装载在通道内。 然后,诸如探针之类的加强构件的远端可以在内腔内并通过选定的一个开口进入以接合电极组件。 探针的远端与电极组件一起沿通道内的远端方向推动,直到电极组件在预定的植入部位离开通道。 然后将探针从电极组件脱耦合,并且远端再次缩回到内腔中。 加强构件的远端可以被重新引导到不同的开口中以接合第二电极组件。 在导引器在第二植入位置重新定位之后,第二电极组件可以以与上述相似的方式展开。 可以重复该过程以展开电极阵列。 根据本发明的一个方面,探针的远端倾斜以从导引器的内腔延伸到通道中。

    • Breakaway devices for use in a meter-pit environment that protect connections between components of an AMR system are described herein. In various embodiments, at least one cable is adapted to operably couple a first AMR device and a second AMR device, wherein at least one of the first AMR device and the second AMR device is disposed in a utility meter pit. In an embodiment, at least once connector adapted to operably couple the cable to the first AMR device or the second AMR device is constructed to be decoupleabe in response to a force that is less than the linear breaking strength of the cable. In another embodiment, the cable may be constructed to have a length equal to at least about twice the distance between the first AMR device and the second AMR device. A coupling member is provided that secures a portion of the cable in a generally coiled configuration, and the coupling member is constructed to be decouplable to release a portion of the length of the cable in the generally coiled configuration in response to a force that is less than the linear breaking strength of the cable. The systems and devices disclosed herein act to prevent overstress on system components and connections when force is applied to the cable connecting these components.

    • A method and apparatus for generating biphasic waveforms uses an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) system having a phase transition enhancing capacitor system in addition to the capacitor system(s) which deliver the first and second phase of the biphasic countershock. Preferably, the ICD system has at least three capacitor systems and a capacitor switching network. The three capacitor systems include two primary capacitor systems and a third high voltage phase transition enhancing capacitor system having a time constant shorter than the time constant of the two primary capacitor systems. A first phase of the biphasic waveform preferably is produced by configuring the two primary capacitor systems to selectively discharge first in a parallel combination, and then in a series combination. The second phase of the biphasic waveform preferably is produced by reconfiguring the two primary capacitor systems to discharge in a parallel combination with reversed polarity. The phase transition enhancing capacitor system is selectively switched into the discharge of the biphasic waveform so as to effectively increase the voltage differential seen by the heart during the transition between the first and second phases of the biphasic waveform.
