Mit positiver Verankerung, zurückziehbarer, dreipoliger Katheter für endokardische Herzschrittmacherelektroden

A flexible tubular casing (1) is fitted at the end farthest from the pacemaker with a ventricular electrode (2) and ensheaths three mutually parallel spiral-wound conductors (3, 7, 11), the first (3) connected at one end by way of a first contact (5) to a first terminal of the pacemaker, and at the other to a helicoid point (6) that can be extended from its initial retracted position internally of the casing (1) by rotating the conductor (3), and corkscrewed into the ventricular cardiac muscle; the second and third conductors (7, 11) connect at one end by way of further contacts (9, 12) with second and third terminals of the pacemaker, and are coupled at their remaining ends to atrial ring electrodes (10, 13) positioned externally of the casing (1) and at dissimilar distances from the point (6); the first contact (5) is taken off separately from the casing (1) so as to permit of connecting the electrodes with the pacemaker by way of separate parallel leads (L, L1), one single core and the other twin core.
