| 摘要 |
An electrode for laryngeal electromyography that is adhesively secured to an insert device, endotracheal tube or other similar device. The attachable surface electrode of this invention consists of a flexible substrate having an anterior and a posterior surface specifically for insertion along the human laryngopharynx and adjacent to the cricothyroideus muscles (the vocal cords). One or more electrically conductive structures are mounted on or formed on the anterior surface of the substrate to provide an electric contact with the cricothyroideus muscles. Insulated wires extend from the electrical conductive structures for transmitting electrical pulses to the cricothyroideus muscles. There is an adhesive material on the posterior surface of the flexible substrate for attachment to an endotracheal tube, insert device, postcricoid paddle or other such device of the attachable substrate so that the electrically conductive structures thereon are properly positioned for laryngeal electromyography.
