Insulator layers for leads of implantable electric stimulation systems and methods of making and using
Abstract:
An implantable lead includes a plurality of conductors disposed in an elongated member. At least one of the conductors includes at least one unit that includes a first conductor segment extending along the elongated member from a beginning point to a first position, a second conductor segment extending along the elongated member from the first position to a second position, and a third conductor segment extending from the second position to an endpoint. An inner insulator layer is disposed along at least a portion of the elongated member and is formed of a material that is flowable to fill in at least some open spaces between portions of at least one of the units. An outer insulator layer is disposed over at least a portion of the inner insulator layer. The outer insulator layer has at least one physical characteristic different from the inner insulator layer.
