Abstract

Distributed electrode lead configurations for providing electrical therapy, and associated systems and methods. A representative patient therapy system includes at least one implantable signal delivery device having a proximal portion and a distal portion. The proximal portion is configured to be coupled with an implantable pulse generator to direct a pulsed electrical signal at a frequency from about 1.5 kHz to about 100 kHz. The distal portion includes multiple electrical contacts for delivering the pulsed electrical signal to a target neural population of a patient when implanted. At least three neighboring electrical contacts of the multiple electrical contacts are electrically connected together and have equal lengths less than 3 mm. The at least three neighboring electrical contacts are uniformly spaced apart by a distance from about 1 mm to about 8 mm.
