Abstract:
1. A biomedical electrode comprising: a conductive polymeric sheet comprising an upper side and a lower side; a conductive undercoating attached to the lower side of the conductive polymeric sheet; an electrolyte layer attached to the conductive undercoating, wherein the conductive undercoating is located between the electrolyte layer and the lower side of the conductive polymeric sheet; a current spreading layer attached to the upper side of the conductive polymeric sheet, wherein the current spreading layer comprises a metallic layer on the upper side of the conductive polymeric sheet, and wherein the biomedical electrode is free of adhesive between the metallic layer and the conductive polymeric sheet; and an electrical connector attached to the biomedical electrode, the electrical connector in electrical communication with the conductive polymeric sheet through the current spreading layer.
