ELECTRODE FOR ACQUIRING PHYSIOLOGICAL SIGNALS OF A RECIPIENT

摘要

The present invention relates to an electrode for acquiring physiological signals of a recipient. Furthermore the present invention relates to a textile fabric for use in a garment to be worn by a recipient, and to a monitoring system for monitoring of physiological parameters of a recipient. In order to provide an electrode for acquiring physiological signals of a recipient, which on the one hand provides a soft, and comfortable skin contact, whilst on the other hand assures a high signal quality, an electrode (1) for acquiring physiological signals of a recipient is suggested, which comprises at least two conductive textile layers (2, 3) positioned on top of each other, wherein the first layer (2) is made of a woven material, and the second layer (3) having a working surface (4) to be brought into contact with the recipient's skin is made of a knitted material.
