Methods of stimulating a nerve may include inserting a lead structure into one or more blood vessels. The lead structure may include an insulating member, first electrodes and second electrodes supported on the insulating member, and at least one metal lead. The first electrodes and second electrodes may be positioned in one or more blood vessels. The methods of stimulating a nerve may further include the lead structures being applied to stimulate nerves such as the phrenic, vagus, trigeminal, obturator or other nerves.
