St Jude Medical Infinity DBS System 8CH Directional Lead - Brain electrical stimulation system, antitremor

Intended purpose

St. Jude Medical deep brain stimulation leads are intended to deliver stimulation to target areas in the brain. The device is MR conditional.

Functional description

Leads are designed for introduction into the brain using standard stereotactic neurosurgical techniques & feature electrodes on a stiff distal end with an inactive lead tip. The proximal end contains contact bands that correspond with each of the distal electrodes & an inactive band that functions as a contact for a set screw when connecting to a compatible extension. The leads contain segmented electrodes that can be activated independently to focus stimulation in one direction.
