DELIVERY OF ELECTRODE GEL USING CPR PUCK

摘要

An electrode assembly includes a first surface to be placed adjacent a person's skin and a second surface including a plurality of reservoirs of conductive gel. The plurality of reservoirs of conductive gel are disposed on sections of the electrode assembly that are at least partially physically separated and may move at least partially independently of one another to conform to contours of a body of a patient. The electrode assembly is configured to dispense an amount of the electrically conductive gel onto the first surface in response to an activation signal and to provide for a defibrillating shock to be applied to the patient through the amount of the to electrically conductive gel.

1. An electrode system comprising:
a compression device including a first gel reservoir, the first gel reservoir configured to retain a conductive gel and to release the conductive gel responsive to compression of the compression device; a first therapy pad configured to deliver a defibrillation pulse; and a first conduit fluidly connecting the first gel reservoir to the first therapy pad.
