Abstract

Physiological frequency control of a heart pacemaker having a stimulating electrode is accomplished by providing an oxygen measuring electrode and placing it in the body tissue, loading the oxygen measuring electrode with stimulating pulses in parallel with the stimulating electrode, measuring the potential of the oxygen measuring electrode relative to another electrode between stimulating pulses, and controlling the frequency of the pacemaker as a function of the measured potential.
