Abstract: A sensor holder to be applied on an appendage of a subject is disclosed herein. The sensor holder includes a substrate with at least a first location for a first sensor component, the substrate surrounding a hollow for receiving the appendage along a longitudinal axis of the hollow. The substrate is gradually thickening when drawing away at least a predetermined distance from the at least first location for the first sensor component along a perpendicular direction of the substrate in relation to the longitudinal axis of the hollow.

Abstract: Sensor arrangement for measuring anesthesia parameters from the head of a patient the sensor arrangement comprising a base element and an array of electrodes and an optical sensor for monitoring substances in tissues. In the sensor arrangement all electrodes and sensors are connected to a single connector or a series of connectors attached to the base element for connecting the sensor arrangement to a patient monitor.

Abstract: An electrode for obtaining a biopotential signal from the skin of a subject. The electrode comprises an adhesive element, an electrode body, an electrically conductive electrode pad, a sponge element, soaked with conductive gel, and means for skin abrasion. The means for skin abrasion comprises abrasion elements forming an integrated structure with the electrode pad, the abrasion elements being so dimensioned that the sponge element prevents the abrasion elements from touching the skin when biopotential signals are measured and enables mechanical contact between the skin and the abrasion elements when the electrode pad is pushed towards the skin. The electrode body is made flexible to enable intentional movement of the electrode pad relative to the adhesive element.
