Patent abstract
The present invention is directed to a cardiac lead for delivery to the left side of a patient's heart including a self-expanding fixation method positioned over the distal portion of the lead. The self-expanding fixation member is capable of automatically expanding from a collapsed state to an expanded state upon deployment at a target site in a cardiac vessel. The fixation member is configured such that in the expanded state it is biased to a side of the lead body.
