DIAGNOSTIC ELECTRODE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING AND USING SAME

摘要

A method of making diagnostic electrodes involves the coating of both conductive adhesive (15) and biocompatible pressure sensitive adhesive (16, 17) on a flexible non-conductive backing material (12) on a side that has at least a portion thereof covered with an electrically conductive surface (14). The method of coating the electrodes is very cost efficient and economical. The use of the electrode enjoys the advantage of controlled coating thicknesses such that both types of adhesive in their final thicknesses have contact with the skin of a patient.
