ABSTRACT:
Medical electrode arrangements are provided for electrotherapy and monitoring applications. In one embodiment, each electrode arrangement includes a smaller electrode that is releasably attached to the back of a larger electrode. For adult applications, the larger electrode is applied to the patient. For pediatric applications, the larger electrode is preferably removed, and the smaller electrode is applied to the patient. Face-to-face and back-to-back electrode arrangement configurations are also provided. In another embodiment, an electrode arrangement is comprised of first and second conductive regions that are separable from each other. In yet further embodiments, an electrode arrangement is comprised of two or more electrodes that are not physically or electrically connected to each other. At least one electrode from each electrode arrangement is placed on the patient. A sensor is also provided to sense which electrodes in each electrode arrangement have been placed on the patient.
