ABSTRACT:
A heart pacemaker including a two wave length reflectance oximeter for determining oxygen saturation. The pacing rate is increased or decreased in response to the measured oxygen saturation. By appropriate multiplexing and timing functions, the two wave length reflectance oximeter is included in a pacing lead coupled to the pacemaker which requires only three conductors.
