Abstract
The invention relates to a device for polarizing at least two spatially separated, at least partially electrically conductive implants. The device includes a coil having a first pole and a second pole, a first contact device associated with the first pole for electrically contacting a first implant, and a second contact device associated with the second pole for electrically contacting a second implant. The coil may be arranged directly or indirectly on or in the first implant and carried by the first implant. The second contact device may include a flexible electrical line which allows the second implant to be contacted in a manner such that the coil may be arranged in a spatially separated manner from the second implant.
