Problems solved by technology

[0005] Since the pacemaker electrodes 11 in the prior art are made of platinum metal electrode wires, (1) the price is relatively expensive; (2) the elasticity is insufficient, and it is easy to cause damage to human tissues during activities; (3) the platinum metal wires are made of The thinner the wire is, the higher its resistivity will be, which will weaken the electrical pulse signal and affect the therapeutic effect; (4) Under the existing technology, the platinum metal wire cannot be made very th

Embodiment Construction

[0034] The pacemaker and pacemaker electrodes of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Please refer to figure 2 As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a pacemaker 2 , which includes a pulse generator 20 , a pacemaker electrode 21 and a connecting wire 22 . The connection wire 22 is used to electrically connect the pulse generator 20 and the pacemaker electrode 21 . The electric pulse signal sent by the pulse generator 20 acts on the human body through the connection wire 22 and the pacemaker electrode 21 .

[0036] The pulse generator 20 includes a casing, a power supply, an electric pulse generating circuit, a control circuit, an interface and the like. The shell material is titanium metal for its internal structure, the power supply is used to provide power for the pulse generator, the electric pulse generating circuit is used to generate electric pulse signals, and the con...

Abstract

The invention provides a pacemaker and a pacemaker electrode. The pacemaker electrode comprises a body and an insulation layer. The body comprises at least one carbon nano tube line which has a plurality of carbon nano tubes arranged axially along the body and connected end to end by a Van der Waals' force; and the insulation layer is coated on the outside surface of the body. The pacemaker comprises a pulse generator, a connecting wire and the pacemaker electrode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pacemaker and a pacemaker electrode thereof, in particular to a carbon nanotube-based pacemaker and a pacemaker electrode thereof. Background technique [0002] Parkinson's disease is a chronic disorder of the central nervous system. The cause is still unknown. It is speculated that it is related to the rapid degeneration of brain cells and the inability to produce enough neurotransmitter dopamine (Dopamine). Because dopamine substances are needed in the brain to command muscle activity, lack of dopamine will cause symptoms of movement disorders in patients, such as tremor, stiffness, slow movement, etc., which in turn affects the quality of life of patients. [0003] At present, in addition to drug treatment for Parkinson's disease, patients can also use surgical implantation of a brain pacemaker (brain pacemaker) to alleviate the patient's discomfort, and the brain pacemaker transmits electrical pulses to stimulate brain ce...
