ABSTRACT:
A medical electrode device has a flat, flexible and electrically insulating electrode carrier, on which at least one electrode conductor is arranged in a predetermined pattern, the conductor being partially exposed to define an electrode surface through which electrical energy is delivered in vivo to tissue adjacent the surface. The electrode carrier insulates the passive side of the electrode from surrounding tissue. The electrode surface defined by the conductor has a relatively broad extent, such as for defibrillating a heart. The electrode carrier has at least one opening therein extending through the predetermined pattern of the electrode conductor, so as to reduce the insulative effect and to increase the flexibility and resilience of the electrode carrier.
