ABSTRACT:
A disposable electrode set is provided in which a single pair of electrodes have the capability of transmitting signals for monitoring, stimulating and therapeutic applications. The electrodes have a metal-metal chloride (preferably tin-stannous chloride) structure to give suitable signals for monitoring, while also providing for the transfer of high energy stimulating and therapeutic signals. Transfer of the stimulating and therapeutic signals requires that the electrodes be formed with a suitable size and shape to accommodate the high energy signals. Each of the electrodes is connected to a plug, which is a part of the disposable set, by a suitable conducting line. The plug is standarized so that the disposable set can be connected to any one or any combination of the monitoring, stimulating and therapeutic devices. The plug is especially designed so that it can be used for any of the devices, while providing a cord fault test to verify engagement of the plug with its associated connector for use in connection with a therapeutic device. Capacitive coupling for the therapeutic device can be included in the plug, if desired.
