ABSTRACT:
The one-piece electro-catheter disclosed is intended for use with artificial pacemakers which reproduce the auriculo-ventricular rhythmic sequence (normally defined as `physiological`). An electrocatheter according to the invention affords highly dependable contact with the cardiac muscle, being anchored thereto by an active type of mechanism in each one of the auricular and ventricular chambers. The implanted electrodes thus permit sensing and stimulation in both of the chambers, and there is the added advantage of having only one catheter to insert.
