Abstract
A heart pacer in which the magnitude of the end-of-life test current source is programmable. This effectively allows the physician to program the condition which will control a switch-over to end-of-life operation. It also allows the physician to override end-of-life operation after it initially takes place following a failing of the end-of-life test. The pacer also includes an additional end-of-life test involving the continuous monitoring of the supply potential and a switch-over to end-of-life operation should the pacer powering potential momentarily fall below a threshold level.
