ABSTRACT:
An electrode glove with a flexible, elastomeric, electrically-insulating shell, an optional moisture absorbant fabric liner, and a single, flexible, elastomeric, easily-cleaned or disposable, electro-chemically inert electrode is described for applying TENS and massage or acupressure to patients. In the preferred embodiment, the electrode glove is formed on a porcelain or metal hand-shaped form by coagulating a layer of conductive rubber over a layer of insulating rubber and attaching a connector, such as a carbon-rubber TENS electrode, to the conductive surface of the glove in the manufacturing process or prior to use by the clinician. In an alternate embodiment, the insulating and conductive layers are coagulated separately and a connector, such as a disposable electrocardiographic electrode, is affixed to the electrode glove so that the glove can be attached to a TENS unit, worn over the insulating glove, or any glove capable of insulating the hand against a TENS current, and removed for disposal after use.
