Abstract

1419533 Heart pacemakers JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY 28 June 1973 [28 June 1972] 18130/74 Divided out of 1419531 Heading A5R The disclosure is identical to that in Specification 1419531 but the claims relate to an implantable cardiac pacemaker having a rechargable battery, means for coupling alternating magnetic input recharging energy to the battery from a source external to the patient's body, electronic circuitry powered by the battery for generating heart-stimulating pulses, and a telemetry device rendered effective when recharging energy is being coupled to the battery by said coupling means for providing an indication externally of the patient's body that recharging is taking place, the telemetry device including a means connected to said coupling means to receive operating energy only during battery recharging for generating an output telemetry signal indicative that said recharging is taking place.
