Abstract:
A medical electrical lead includes a tapered distal tip having a tapered drug-eluting component incorporated therein. The drug-eluting component can be an overmolded drug-eluting collar or a pre-molded drug eluting collar. The drug-eluting collar is disposed in a recess formed in the tapered distal tip and maintains the overall tapered profile of the distal tip.
