  • positioning a lead having a distal end and a shaft so that the distal end is positioned at a target location and the shaft extends along a first path;

    advancing a sheath having a curved distal end over the shaft;

    manipulating the sheath so that the curved distal end directs a portion of the shaft lateral to the first path; and
