Treatment of congestive heart failure

A method for treating congestive heart failure, comprising:

• providing a first stimulator that generates an infusion pulse in accordance with prescribed parameters;
• providing a catheter connected to the first stimulator, which catheter includes a discharge portion;
• providing a second stimulator that generates an electrical pulse in accordance with prescribed parameters;
• providing a lead connected to the second stimulator, which lead includes at least one electrode;
• implanting the catheter discharge portion and the at least one electrode near at least one cardiac tissue to be stimulated;
• implanting the first stimulator and the second stimulator at a location remote from the at least one tissue to be stimulated;
• tunneling the catheter subcutaneously to the first stimulator location;
• delivering via the first stimulator and catheter, infusion pulses of at least one drug as at least one treatment for congestive heart failure to the at least one cardiac tissue, which tissue comprises at least one of a coronary artery, a branch of a coronary artery, a coronary vein, a branch of a coronary vein, the aorta, the left ventricle, the right ventricle, the left atrium, the right atrium, a pulmonary vein, and a pulmonary artery;
• and
• delivering via the second stimulator and lead, at least one electrical stimulating pulse to tissue surrounding the at least one electrode.
