1. A sensor comprising:

  • a first substrate having a sensing portion configured to be percutaneously inserted into a patient and an extracorporeal circuit mounting portion, the sensing portion defining a sensor thereon and the circuit mounting portion having at least one electrically conductive pad formed thereon that is electrically connected to the sensor, the sensor configured to produce a signal indicative of a condition of the patient,an anisotropic medium disposed on the circuit mounting portion, the medium configured to be electrically conductive in a direction through the medium and electrically insulating in directions along the medium,an electrical circuit having at least one electrically conductive terminal, the circuit being mechanically mounted to the circuit mounting portion of the first substrate via the anisotropic medium with the at least one electrically conductive terminal juxtaposed over the at least one electrically conductive pad, the anisotropic medium establishing local electrical contact between the at least one electrically conductive terminal and the at least one electrically conductive pad.
