note = "A combined pacemaker and defibrillator includes a heart sensor (18) to provide signals through amplifier (36) to the logic control circuit (34) which provides pacing pulses from generator (38) at a variable level depending on the action of capture detector (42), and when fibrillation is detected or the pacer pulses have reached maximum amplitude without overcoming the heart problem, the logic control (34) signals defibrillator control (40) which causes the defibrillator output (44) to supply high energy shocks to the heart electrodes (26, 28).",
