Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Rechargeable implantable cardioverter defibrillator including a hermetically sealed can and at least one lead, coupled with the hermetically sealed can, the hermetically sealed can including at least one high voltage capacitor, an electronic circuit, coupled with the high voltage capacitor and a rechargeable battery, coupled with the electronic circuit and the high voltage capacitor, an outer surface of the hermetically sealed can including an active section and a non-active section, the non-active section being electrically insulated from the active section, wherein a surface area of the active section acts as at least one of an electrode with the lead for forming an electric shock vector for applying a high voltage shock and a sensor for sensing electrical activity and wherein a surface area of the non-active section acts as at least one antenna for transmitting and receiving information wirelessly while also receiving electromagnetic energy to inductively charge the rechargeable battery.
