Abstract

See full text

Physiological electrodes are provided for use with a magnetic connector to complete an electrical circuit between the body of a patient and an electrical instrument. These electrodes contain a ferromagnetic material to complete a magnetic circuit with a magnetic member on an associated lead wire. This ferromagnetic material is included in an electrically conductive electrode element that contains an electrically conductive material, such as a saline gel, and the ferromagnetic material is isolated from the electrically conductive medium to prevent corrosion. The electrodes are provided with an arrangement for securing the electrode element to the body of a patient, and a separating member is provided to prevent the electrically conductive electrode element from contacting the skin of the patient in certain applications. In some embodiments, an appropriate restraining structure is provided to minimize the possibility of accidental disconnect.
