Abstract
A heat dissipating housing to be positioned at a distal end of a stimulation/defibrillation lead, the housing including a housing body having a distal contact face at a distal end, an inner wall, and an outer wall. The housing further includes an anchoring screw, wherein at least a portion of the anchoring screw extends axially from the distal end of the housing body. The anchoring screw is configured to secure the distal contact face in contact with tissue of a patient to form a thermal bridge between the tissue and the housing body. The housing body is electrically insulated and thermally conductive to dissipate heat transferred through the thermal bridge to the outer wall of the housing body.
