摘要 |
The invention relates to an electrode apparatus, an intravascular or intracardiac pacemaker or defibrillation electrode with an electrode cable in particular, consisting of a sleeve of insulation enclosing a first elongated, flexible conductor, connected to a first electrode arranged on the electrode cable. The sleeve of insulation also encloses at least a second conductor, connected to a first conductive surface arranged on the electrode cable at a distance from the first electrode. In order to achieve an electrode apparatus with which the distance between the electrode on the electrode cable can be changed in a very simple manner and in which at least one electrode can be enlarged, reduced and even rotated around the electrode cable in certain instances, it is proposed according to the invention that the electrode apparatus (1, 9) be equipped with at least one sleeve-like body (19-23, 32, 35), insulated against the surroundings and slidable on the electrode cable (312), which at least partially covers the first conductive surface (6, 11) and with which a second electrode (6, 11, 37) can be formed whose position in relation to the first electrode (5, 10) and/or whose size can be varied. <IMAGE> |
