ABSTRACT:
A test device for use with a pacemaker to simulate the load of a heart. The device is designed for telemetering control and includes in its circuit a magnetic reed switch which opens and closes a load circuit in response to a remotely applied magnetic field. The device is intended to be disposable and is installed in circuit with the pacemaker terminals which normally connect to the heart leads. The device as thus installed is packaged in the sterile shipping package with the pacemaker and both permit the final checking of the pacemaker within its sterile pack prior to shipment and testing of the pacemaker in preparation for implantation without the necessity of opening the sterile package to conduct the test.
