Battery test circuit for a heart pacemaker
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A battery test circuit for a heart pacemaker which generates a plurality of successive stimulation pulses comprising:
- means for generating an electrical signal corresponding to the charge status of the battery;
means for generating at least one marking pulse; and
means for mixing said marking pulse with said stimulation pulses with the marking pulse disposed at a chronological position with respect to at least one of said stimulation pulses which corresponds to said charge status.

Abstract
A battery test circuit for a heart pacemaker generates a signal which corresponds to the charge status of the pacemaker battery which is displayable in a manner which does not interfere with the normal pacing frequency of the pacemaker. A marking pulse is generated by the circuit at a chronological position between successive stimulation pulses which is dependent upon the charge status of the battery at the time the marking pulse is generated.
