Abstract
An electrical stimulation lead includes a lead body; a terminal disposed along the proximal end portion of the lead body; a single electrode disposed at the distal end of the lead body; a conductor extending along the lead body and electrically coupling the terminal to the single electrode; and an adjustable sheath disposed over a portion of the lead body to cover a selected portion of the single electrode by displacing the sheath forwards or backwards relative to the single electrode to control a size of a portion of the electrode exposed for stimulation of tissue. Another electrical stimulation lead has a low-profile distal portion that has a smaller lateral width in at least one direction than a remainder of the lead body. Yet another arrangement includes a guidewire with a mapping electrode to map a region around a peripheral nerve prior to implantation of an electrical stimulation lead.
