Abstract

Methods and systems for securing electrode leads are disclosed An electrode system in accordance with one embodiment includes an electrode contact a connector attached to the electrode contact and an electrical lead The electrical lead can be received in an opening of the contact with an inner surface of the opening applying a generally uniform radial pressure around a circumference of the electrical lead For example the contact can have a tubular shape optionally with an elongated slit, and can be crimped around the lead to apply the generally uniform radial pressure.
