    Abstract:
    An electrode system is developed for temporary diaphragm pacing. It is divided into four parts: an electrode complex, a tube, a branch for a lead and a syringe. Stainless steel electrodes are put forward and pulled back by pressure produced by the syringe so that they can be easily attached to and detached from the phrenic nerve. Experiments show that the system works well, the nerve is successfully stimulated and no nerve damages are visually observed.
