Abstract: An electrode for application to the human skin, includes an electrically non-conductive support which on its upper side, facing away from the skin, has a protruding, electrically conductive connecting element with a terminal for removable connection of a signal conductor. A transverse conductor is provided which extends at least partially on the opposite, lower side of the support and is electrically coupled to the connecting element and to a contact medium facing the skin. The connecting element is made of a single piece, which on the one hand is connected to the transverse electrical conductor, and on the other hand has the terminal for releasable connection of a separate signal conductor.

Abstract: An electrode set is disclosed for a defibrillator, the set including at least two electrodes each having a carrier layer, a conductive contact layer, a conductive gel layer, and a non-conductive electrode cover. In the storage state of the electrode set, the electrode covers lie against each other in a planar relationship at least portion-wise, on the side that is remote from the gel layer of the at least two electrodes. The gel layers of the electrodes are directly in contact with each other in a portion-wise manner by way of two openings in the electrode covers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing medical electrodes, in particular, neutral electrodes. According to the inventive method, a web-shaped laminate, consisting of a non-conductive intermediate support (C) and a conductive layer (A) is coated on the side of said conductive layer with an electrically conductive, adhesive gel (E). The laminate-gel combination is formed to a specific contour, preferably punched out, before being fixed to a carrier (H) by the side opposite to the gel (E). The conductive layer is applied to the web-shaped intermediate support (C) during the production of the laminate, preferably having been previously punched out, as panels which do not cover the entire web-shaped intermediate support (C).

Abstract: A process and device for making an electrode to be applied to the skin in which a carrier provided with an opening is stuck, on the side remote from the skin, to a tag portion which covers the opening. Adhesive is applied to the tag and/or the carrier only on a locally restricted partial region of their facing surfaces and the tag is adhesively secured to the carrier.
