Zusammenfassung:	A catheter for delivering a medical electrical lead to a bundle of His from within a right atrium of a heart. The catheter includes a straight portion and a hook portion projecting from a distal end of the straight portion. The hook portion includes a first curved portion, a second curved portion, and a third curved portion. The straight portion and the first curved portion define a plane. The second curved portion extends from a distal end of the first curved portion. The second curved portion curves away from the plane. The third curved portion extends from a distal end of the second curved portion. The third curved portion curves toward the plane. The catheter forms a lumen extending from a proximal end of the straight portion to an opening at a distal end of the third curved portion.
