A device for manipulating a stylet unit for positioning a electrode cable in a body cavity has a handle supporting, at a distal portion thereof, a rotatable bracket member. A slide member carrying a screw for fixation of a proximal contact element of the electrode cable is displaceably mounted on the bracket member so as to be adjustable to variations in length of a central lumen of the electrode cable, into which the stylet unit is to be inserted.

An implantable heart stimulator has a connector for an electrode lead in the form of a self-contained tubular connector, which can be placed as a unit in one-half shell of a stimulator housing, together with a hybrid circuit and a power source. The other half shell of the stimulator housing can then simply be placed over these assembled components and joined thereto by welding, thereby considerably simplifying manufacture and assembly of the stimulator. When an even number of such self-contained connector tubes is employed, the two stimulator housing half shells can be identical.
