SHIELDED ELECTRODE CONNECTOR

摘要

An ECG lead set is described which is shielded against electrostatic charge hazards. An electrical shield (12) is located at the end of each lead (20) of the lead set and electrically shields the connection (30) of the lead set to an ECG electrode (33). The electrical shield is covered by a nonconductive cover (14) and is electrically connected to the shield of the coaxial cable (26) of the lead set.
