Abstract :
A transcutaneous energy transmission is employed to supply electrical energy from outside the body to the interior of the body by using a transcutaneous transformer. The rechargeable will be continuously used to charge the battery with a transcutaneous energy transmission system for artificial organs cardiac pump. The technique would need a power supply that uses a transcutaneous transformer to charge the battery of the rechargeable artificial organs
