Abstract: A lead tie-down for limiting movement of an electrical lead from an implantable medical device is disclosed. Some system embodiments include a lead assembly having an electrical lead and a stimulating electrode and a lead tie-down coupled to the electrical lead and configured for coupling to surrounding tissue. The lead tie-down permits rotational movement of the electrical lead relative to the lead tie-down. In some embodiments, the lead tie-down includes a clamping member having a bore therethrough. The bore is configured to receive an electrical lead extending from an implantable medical device and to permit rotation of the lead within the clamping member.
