Zusammenfassung: | Medical devices include a housing that defines both a lead bore and a compartment. A separate housing may be inserted into the compartment where the separate housing may include the electrical circuitry of the medical device such as circuitry that provides stimulation and/or sensing. Electrical conductors interconnect terminals of the separate housing to electrical connectors within the lead bore. The two housings may have different shapes and may be constructed of different materials. The housing that defines the lead bore and compartment may be shaped and sized for a specific implantation site while providing the compartment that is shaped and sized for the separate housing. |
