Biotelemetry, or medical telemetry is being developed more and more recently. Biotelemetry has enormous opportunities to make health care more efficient and safe while reducing costs. However, the currently existing implantable devices must be periodically removed from the body of the object of observation to replace the source of energy, and then re-install into the body. Power sources have become the main limiting factor for increasing the life of the implant. They are an obstacle to the further miniaturization of implantable devices. The development and further application of this work will lead to a significant improvement in the use of implantable medical devices, thanks to the improvement of a number of indicators, including those associated with charging an implantable device. Analysis results of similar works and predictive research in the field of energy supply of implanted devices, the most efficient and safe method to reduce the battery recharge time suggests the use of pulsed current or pulsed voltage.
