Abstract

An active bipolar cardiac electrical is assembled by coupling an inner conductor coil to a connector pin to form an inner conductor assembly. The inner conductor assembly is threaded through a connector insulator. An insulating tubing is placed over the inner coil. A proximal end of the insulating tubing is sleeved over the distal extension of the connector insulator. An outer conductor coil is coupled to a ring connector to form an outer conductor assembly. The inner conductor assembly is threaded through the outer conductor assembly. The ring connector is sleeved on the distal extension of the connector insulator and over the insulator tubing. A proximal seal is sleeved over a socket end of the connector pin. The proximal seal is seated on the proximal extension of the connector insulator.
