ABSTRACT:
A patch electrode including a generally oval-shaped metallic mesh affixed to a polymer insulation backing and an insulation frame, and further including a plurality of specially designed lattices which divide the metallic mesh into a plurality of windows or apertures. The windows effectively act as smaller electrodes distributing the higher current densities inward from each of their own individual edges.
