ABSTRACT:
A case for an implantation in a human or animal body. The case comprises a rigid plastics substrate which defines a chamber and a platinum skin arranged to overlie the substrate, the skin being formed in two or more pieces welded together--for instance by electron beam welding--to form a hermetically sealed case. The platinum skin should be from 0.1875 mm to 0.5 mm thick and is biocompatible, rendering the case suitable for implanting and containing a power pack and electronic package for a cardiac pacemaker.
