A carrying case for a portable cardiac pacer having physician-actuable controls on the top and front panels of its housing includes a body portion having front, rear, side and bottom panels forming an open-ended enclosure in which the pacer is received. A first hinge-mounted flap extending across the open-end of the enclosure and a second hinge-mounted flap extending across the front panel of the body portion are secured at their free ends by a snap-fastener to the front panel of the body portion so as to retain the pacer securely seated within the enclosure. each of the flap panels includes a rigid portion overlying the associated panel controls of the pacer to prevent inadvertent actuation of the controls by pressure applied externally to the carrying case.
