This invention relates to an electrically active implant with a plurality of energy-consuming components and an activation device designed to activate the implant. The electrically active implant is characterized by a deactivation device designed to deactivate the energy-consuming components of the implant, where the energy-consuming components of the implant can be deactivated during the implant's storage by means of the deactivation device, and, furthermore, characterized by a device for permanent storage of the implant-specific data.

Electrically activated implant

A stimulation apparatus, in particular for a human heart, has a stimulation unit, a signal detector and a control unit. The stimulation unit is adapted to deliver a stimulation pulse having a pulse duration, a pulse strength and a stimulation intensity. The signal detector is adapted to detect stimulation success on the basis of a picked-up signal. The control unit is connected to the stimulation unit and to the signal detector. It is designed such that the stimulation intensity varies depending upon the picked-up signal. A time-determining unit is provided that is at least indirectly connected to the control unit and with which a time difference between the delivery of a stimulation pulse and the pick-up of the picked-up signal or a signal feature of the picked-up signal can be detected.

Stimulation apparatus

A method of applying a marker element () to an implant (), in particular a stent, intended for implantation in the human or animal body, comprising a main body and an opening () provided in said main body () for receiving the marker element (), wherein to form at least a part of the marker element () a hardenable material or material mix is introduced into the opening and hardened therein.
