Patent ID: 8577438

Claim:
A sensor for in-vivo measurements, comprising: a substantially planar substrate, the substrate comprising a sensor shaft having multiple electrodes, a sensor head that is to be connected to a first electrical plug connector, the sensor head having metallized contact fields, and strip conductors connecting the contact fields to the electrodes, wherein, when there are no bending forces acting on the substrate in an unused sensor, the sensor head laterally protrudes from the sensor shaft such that the contact fields are arranged aside the sensor shaft; and a support part in which the sensor head is arranged, the support part and sensor head together forming a second electrical plug connector, wherein the first electrical plug connector is connectable to the second electrical plug connector in a connecting direction, the connecting direction extending crosswise to the longitudinal direction of the sensor shaft, wherein the longitudinal direction of the sensor shaft extends along the substrate from the electrodes to the sensor head.
