1. An electrode for use with electromedical equipment and adapted for attachment to a person'"'"'s body, said electrode comprising:

  • a. a manually elastically, stretchable, electrically insulating cover sheet member having an inner surface for facing toward the body and an outer surface for facing away therefrom;

    b. an electrically conductive sheet member positioned with one surface thereof in juxta-position to the inner surface of the cover sheet member, a first minor area portion of the conductive sheet member adjacent one end thereof being fixedly secured to the cover sheet member, a second major area portion extending to the other end thereof remaining unsecured to said cover sheet member and thereby adapted to permit relative free movement between the cover sheet member and the electrically conductive sheet member, the electrically conductive sheet member being positioned within ther perimetric edge of the cover sheet member;

    c. terminal means connected in electrically conducting relation to said conductive sheet member;

    d. adhesive means disposed in fixed relation to said cover sheet member for removably attaching the electrode to the body, said adhesive means including first and second separate and distinct adhesive sections, said first section being positioned adjacent one end of the unsecured portion of the conductive sheet member, and the second section being positioned adjacent the opposite end of the unsecured portion of the conductive sheet member and in the vicinity of the secured portion of said conductive sheet member, whereby said elastically stretchable cover sheet member can be stretched between isolated locations of adhesive attachment of the electrode to the body and exert refractive force therebetween
