An active implantable medical device with RF telemetry comprising subcutaneous ECG electrodes. The case ( 12 ) of the device comprises electrodes ( 20, 22, 24, 26 ) for collecting subcutaneous ECG signals coming into contact with the patient's tissues surrounding the case after implantation, as well as an RF telemetry antenna ( 30 ). These ECG electrodes are surface electrodes and the RF antenna is a surface antenna. The case ( 12 ) presents a significantly planar face ( 16 ) for mounting the ECG electrodes in an arrangement where these electrodes are significantly coplanar and spaced apart with each other, and receiving the surface RF antenna. A platelet ( 18 ) mounted onto the case comprises an insulating substrate comprising on its free face, conductive deposits ( 20, 22, 24, 26, 30 ) forming the ECG electrodes and the RF antenna.
