Abstract


In recent years, there has been an increasing use pacemaker electrode that is placed inside the heart and helps the patient's heart to keep a normal rhythm. In this paper, performance of pacemaker electrode and electric resistance are investigated. These structures are modelled and numerically tested by using Finite Element Method (FEM) by using Comsol Multiphysics. The created virtual models using 3D simulation and computation software proved that used shield around the heart body for reduce the effects of EM fields. In this model deals with the current and potential distribution around one pair of electrodes and study the position of the counter electrode affects the electric resistance of the pacemaker electrode.
