Batteries designed as a power source for implantable pacemakers, defibrillators, or pacemaker/defibrillators. Most of these batteries consist of nonrechargeable (e.g., lithium/iodine) cells. Implantable cardiac pacemaker batteries are usually packed together with a pulse generator in a container; they are typically placed in a surgical pocket in the patient\'s chest or abdomen.
