A temporary pacemaker combines technologies of the implantable pacemaker, the waterproof watch, with a separate remote-control programming unit that communicates with the pacemaker via IR radiation. An LCD readout on the temporary pacemaker continuously reports on current settings, and is monitored periodically, as well as during the setting process. The programming unit is aimed at an IR sensor on the pacemaker, and its dedicated controls are used for setting, with the aid of prompting messages on its own LCD panel. Battery life is about 6-9 months, while that for the lithium battery in the sealed and sterilizable pacemaker approaches five years.
