In this work, lead subcomponent performance is examined with a drop-in nitinol-silver composite wire system expected to deliver 50% improved flexibility, shape memory capability, and 50% improved strain-fatigue durability for next generation, extreme mechanical service, implantable leads. Leads produced from this advanced conductor could be useful in a variety of applications including service life extension of cardiac pacing, defibrillation, and nerve stimulation and sensing.
