ABSTRACT:
A disposable skin conducting electrode assembly and electrode is disclosed for use on a patient wherein the electrode assembly comprises a gel pad, an electrode and an adhesive pad. The electrode is a thin conductive plate containing an interior area or aperture. In one particular embodiment, the electrode is doughnut shaped. The gel pad covers one side of the conductive plate and is similarly shaped. The adhesive pad covers the other side of the electrode and extends over the aperture and beyond the periphery of the gel pad. The adhesive provides good contact around the external edges of the gel pad, and due to the aperture, the adhesive pad provides good adhesive contact to the patient around internal edges of the gel pad as well. An external conductor is connectable to a conductive, single piece solid metal stud or post attached to the electrode and extending through an orifice in the adhesive pad.
