摘要:Pacemaker is a medical device placed in chest to help control abnormal heart rhythms. Its maincomponents consist of pulse Generator, battery, leads and electrodes. The electrode is a non insulated termination of thelead which is in direct contact with the heart. The geometry of electrode is studied using COMSOL Tool based onFEM. FEM is a numerical method for solving the problems of engineering and mathematical physics. In this work wehave analyzed the effect on electric current density if the spacing between cathode and anode is changed. By modellingpacemaker electrode in COMSOL we can obtain the desired value of electric current density depending on the tissuetolerance.
