ABSTRACT:
A method of securing an electrode to the skin of a human body for treatment or diagnostic purposes includes the steps of positioning a surface of the electrode in contact with a desired skin area from which, or into which electrical energy is to be directed, and maintaining the electrode in its desired position by confining it within the periphery of a pliable, moldable and stretchable adhesive material conforming to the configuration of the electrode and having a peripheral region surrounding the periphery of the electrode and being secured to the skin. Preferably the electrode surface is adhered to the skin without interposing an adhesive polymer or an adhesive gel between them, and most preferably the pliable adhesive material is a putty including a silicone polymer.
