ABSTRACT:
A snapless, tabless, disposable medical electrode having a low profile for transmitting electrical signals between the skin of a patient and external monitoring equipment. The electrode has an adhesive substrate with a central opening and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer on its bottom (which faces the patient); a symmetrical, electrically conductive disk secured to the substrate, formed without a tab and without a snap, and positioned over and projecting above the central opening of the substrate; a conductive medium substantially filling the opening of the substrate and electrically contacting the skin of the patient, the substrate, and the disk; a lead wire, attached to the disk without regard to orientation, for connecting the disk to the external monitoring equipment; and a release liner covering the bottom of the substrate and gel before the electrode is secured to the skin of the patient.
