Neurostimulators and methods of using neurostimulators are provided. The neurostimulator is implanted within a tissue pocket of a patient, and electrical energy is conveyed from the neurostimulator to stimulate a target tissue site remote from the tissue pocket. The neurostimulator has a case with which one or more electrodes are associated. The electrical energy is returned to the electrode(s) in a manner that prevents, or at least reduces, pocket stimulation that may otherwise occur due to the return of electrical energy to the case of the neurostimulator.

L'invention porte sur des neurostimulateurs et des procédés d'utilisation de neurostimulateurs. Le neurostimulateur est implanté à l'intérieur d'une poche de tissu d'un patient, et de l'énergie électrique est transportée à partir du neurostimulateur pour stimuler un site de tissu cible éloigné de la poche de tissu. Le neurostimulateur possède un boîtier avec lequel une ou plusieurs électrodes sont associées. L'énergie électrique est renvoyée à l'électrode ou aux électrodes d'une manière qui empêche, ou au moins réduit, une stimulation de poche qui peut sinon se produire en raison du retour de l'énergie électrique au boîtier du neurostimulateur.
