1. A biomedical electrode, comprising:

  • an electrically non-conductive backing;

    two conductive plates required for Contact Quality Monitoring circuitry separated from each other along a longitudinal axis of the backing, each conductive plate contacting the electrically non-conductive backing, and each conductive dilate having a curvilinear interior edge adjoining the longitudinal axis which edge is also symmetrical about an axis orthogonal to the longitudinal exit; and

    optionally,a field of conductive adhesive in contact with both the conductive plates, whereinthe minimum distance separating the conductive plates along the longitudinal axis at a first point distal from an outside edge of the biomedical electrode intersecting the longitudinal axis is substantially greater than the minimum distance separating the conductive plates at a second point more proximal to the outside edge of the biomedical electrode.
