Transcutaneous medical electrode

摘要

A transcutaneous medical electrode is provided for coupling electrical energy into nerves and/or muscles for the stimulation thereof. The electrode uses an array of conductive ink patterns in combination with a conductive adhesive to provide power coupling in which the current density across the electrode can be preselected by ink design for use on specific curvaceous areas of a body to transcutaneously stimulate muscle and/or nerves.
