  • Patent number: 4537198
    Abstract: An electrode cap for use in encephalographic analysis which includes a flexible head cover having a plurality of spaced electrode anchor tabs disposed on the inner side thereof. Flexible electrode lead wires extend through the head cover and are attached to electrodes inside the cover. Each electrode is mounted in an independently positionable engaging tab which is adapted to be selectively positioned by finely adjustable contact engagement with one of the anchor tabs at a pre-selected locus. The head cover is preferably of multi-panel construction, including a crown flap which can be folded between opened and closed positions, thereby facilitating ready access to the interior of the head cover and ease of replacement or repair of one or more of the electrodes and the respective lead. An electrode board adapter is provided for connecting the electrodes to the E.E.G. amplifier and readout instrument.
