Placement of a stimulation lead on the diaphragm — part of a system that stimulates that muscle to improve the pumping of a failing heart — through small cuts in the abdomen using a camera and slim instruments. The lead is anchored to the muscle and routed under the skin to connect to the battery-and-electronics unit, which is not placed as part of this service. A lead already in place may be replaced the same way.
