Abstract

A probe is provided for a pacemaker which is associated by one of its end portions with the pacemaker and by its opposite end portion with the auricle and the ventricle of the heart. It comprises two conductors which form a one-piece assembly and which are associated with each other by means allowing them to slide axially with respect to each other, namely two tubes or sleeves fitting one into the other and movable with respect to each other. An annular space is provided between said tubes.
