ABSTRACT:
The output or outputs of the subcutaneously implanted pulse generator of a cardiac pacemaker are accessible by introducing a cannula or the wire of a stylet through the skin and thereupon through a silicone membrane which is implanted beneath the skin and surrounds a portion of a chamber which contains the output or outputs or affords access to the output or outputs through a conduit or conductor. The cannula or the wire of the sylet can be used to test the pulse generator, the lead or leads and/or the connection or connections between the lead or leads and the pulse generator as well as to admit medicaments and/or to facilitate or carry out adjustments or repairs.
