title: [Placing of implantable devices for electric stimulation].
abstract: Various electrical devices are implanted for cardiac-, diaphragma-, pain- and musclestimulation. The stimulator/pacemaker can be implanted in locations, different from that of ordinary cardiac pacemakers. All electric stimulation equipment containing batteries must be removed before cremation on account of the risk of explosion.
