What is the meaning of VVI mode pacemaker?
pacemaker is a pacemaker
If someone has a pacemaker, is it safe for them to talk on the phone - landline or cell?

How do pacemaker batteries recharge?
First of all a pacemaker is a combination of two parts: the generator which contains the battery and logic, as well as the leads which connect to the heart. The batteries are not 'recharged'. When a pacemaker's battery is nearing the end of it's life (roughly 5-8 years) the patient schedules surgery, where the generator but not the leads are completely replaced. This isn't as drastic as it sounds and not usually as complicated as the initial fitting of a pacemaker. This operation is sometimes colloquially called 'recharging' but in reality the entire generator (battery and all) is replaced with a new one while the old is discarded.
