Abstract: An electrode assembly for a catheter having first and second conductors comprises an anode ring including an outer portion and an inner portion connected to the outer portion. The inner portion includes a solid member having a blind passage therein and a channel therethrough. One end of the first conductor is received in the blind passage and retained therein by a pair of crimps impressed into the solid member against the conductor end. The second conductor extends through the anode ring in the channel. Alternatively, the inner portion includes a post which is received in a passage in the end of the first conductor and is welded to the first conductor. The second conductor includes a lead portion and a tip portion spaced therefrom and the anode ring includes a feed-through tube extending therethrough and interconnecting the lead and tip portions of the second conductor.
