Abstract

The rechargeable body tissue stimulator is a heart pacemaker for partial implantation in the body of a patient, with electrical stimulating impulses directed on selected areas of body tissue. The pacemaker comprises an implanted impulse generator (10) to produce the stimulating impulses and an implanted rechargeable battery (13) supplying the impulse generator (10). An externally applied energy source, which is rechargeable, is also provided, this energy is stored in an implanted energy accumulator (14) for transmission as a recharging current to the battery (13). Recharge regulating elements (28, 25, 26, 27and partially external to interact with the scanning elements (22) to regulate the recharging rate of the battery when the scanning elements (22) detect that the battery has reached a predetermined charge.
