CS lead with single site sensing and dual site pacing

Year	Description
1999	Invention patented by Mary Elizabeth Bush and Mae-Mae Shieh on August 19th, 1999. Abstract: A system for providing medical electrical stimulation includes a pulse generator coupled to a lead having two electrodes for placement in the right atrium or for placement of one in the right atrium and one in the coronary sinus or coronary vein. In the preferred embodiment the surface area of the first electrode is smaller than that of the second electrode so that the sensed signal from the first electrode is less than that from the second. The system provides dual site pacing with essentially single site sensing without the use of extra switches, connectors, or adaptors.
