PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To dispense with cell replacement of a cardiac pacemaker device since it is necessary to periodically replace a cell of an implantable-type cardiac pacemaker device, which causes suffering to a patient as often as a cell is replaced. SOLUTION: The cardiac pacemaker device has an antenna and a battery built-in, and an electric power is transmitted to the built-in antenna from the outside of a body by an electromagnetic wave to store the electric power in the battery. With the use of the electric power stored in the battery, a main body of the pacemaker device can operate. If necessary, the electric power can be supplied wirelessly from outside and a surgery for exchanging a cell becomes unnecessary; therefore, a patient's suffering can be relieved.
