A cardiac lead (10) having a joint assembly for connecting a polymeric sleeve (12) to a tubular metallic structure, such as the tubular metallic connector that connects to the header of a cardiac stimulator. The joint assembly includes a tubular metallic member (24, 25, 26, 27), which may be the tubular connector, an electrode, or some other structure in the lead. The tubular metallic member has an annular groove (36) formed on the exterior surface thereof. A polymeric annular member (38) is disposed around the tubular metallic member and is seated in the annular groove. The polymeric sleeve is disposed over a portion of the tubular metallic member and is secured to the polymeric annular member by an adhesive. The joint assembly provides a polymer- to-polymer interface for adhesive bonding.
L'invention concerne une dérivation cardiaque comprenant un ensemble joint permettant de raccorder un manchon (12) polymère à une structure métallique tubulaire telle que le raccord tubulaire métallique du tube collecteur d'un stimulateur cardiaque. L'ensemble joint comprend un élément (24, 25, 26, 27) métallique tubulaire qui peut être un raccord tubulaire, une électrode ou une autre structure comprise dans la dérivation. L'élément tubulaire métallique présente un sillon (36) annulaire formé sur sa surface externe. Un élément (38) annulaire polymère est disposé autour de l'élément métallique tubulaire et vient se placer dans ce sillon annulaire. Le manchon polymère est disposé sur une partie de l'élément métallique tubulaire et est assemblé à l'élément polymère annulaire par un adhésif. L'ensemble joint comporte une interface polymère-polymère permettant un assemblage adhésif.
