  • Publication number: 20220323014
    Abstract: A body electrode unit includes a body electrode and a release sheet to which the body electrode is attached. The body electrode includes a first electrode configured to stimulate a muscle of a body, a second electrode, and a third electrode. The second electrode and the third electrode are configured to detect a physiological signal from the muscle that is stimulated by the first electrode. The body electrode also includes a first connection portion arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a second connection portion arranged between the third electrode and one of the first electrode and the second electrode. The first connection portion has at least one first direction changing part configured to change a direction in which the first connection portion extends, such that at least one of a distance and an angle between the first electrode and the second electrode is adjustable.

  • Publication number: 20220323013
    Abstract: A body electrode unit includes a body electrode configured to be attached to a body, and a release sheet to which the body electrode is attached. The body electrode includes at least a first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode and the second electrode are put together to form a single continuous shape. The release sheet includes a first processed part configured to facilitate at least one of a separation and a bending of the release sheet, the first processed part being provided in a first area between a position at which the first electrode is attached and a position at which the second electrode is attached.

  • Patent number: 10232166
    Abstract: A defibrillation pad for a defibrillator, includes: a pair of electrode pads (10) each including a gel portion (12); lead wires (21, 22); a pair of nonconductive release liners (30A, 30B) each detachably stuck to the corresponding gel portion (12) and each having a through hole (32A, 32B) opposed to the corresponding gel portion; and a connecting member (40) comprising an electric connecting pattern (41) having a predetermined electrical resistance, wherein the pair of gel portions (12), each of which is exposed from the corresponding through hole (32A, 32B), are electrically connected to each other through the electric connecting pattern (41) in a state where each of the pair of release liners (30A, 30B) are stuck to the corresponding gel portion. The connecting member (40) has a cut region (45) by which the pair of gel portions are electrically disconnected to each other when the pair of electrode pads are stuck to a living body.
