manufacturing method of an implantable medical director

摘要

An implantable medical device lead having an integral biostable in-situ grown oxide insulation and process for forming that includes a lead body extending from a proximal end to a distal end, and a plurality of conductor wires electrically coupling the proximal end and the distal end of the lead body, with one or more of the plurality of conductor wires being formed of a material having a chemically modifiable surface for producing an insulating oxide layer thereon. An insulation layer corresponding to the native oxide layer is formed about the one or more of the plurality of conductor wires.
