Abstract
An electrode includes a pad having a patient contact side and a connector side. The patient contact side includes a conductive layer, and the connector side includes a press stud. An eyelet interconnects the conductive layer with the press stud. The eyelet includes a conductive coating disposed on at least a portion of a surface of the eyelet that contacts the conductive layer, while other surfaces of the eyelet are substantially free of the conductive coating.
