1. Packaged medical electrodes for use with an electromedical device comprising:
- a first electrode having;
a base layer;
a gel layer disposed on the base layer;
a conductive connector communicatively coupled to the gel layer;
a second electrode having;
a base layer;
a gel layer disposed on the base layer;
at least one conductive connector communicatively coupled to the gel layer;
the gel layers of the first and second electrodes being disposed in a facing relationship and having a liner interposed therebetween, the liner physically separating the gel layers of the first and second electrodes and conductively coupling the gel layers of the first and second electrodes; and
a package enclosing the first and second electrodes.

Abstract
The invention provides a sealed package system for housing at least two medical electrode devices and for enabling the periodic testing thereof, comprising a thin, generally flat flexible envelope constructed and arranged to form an interior cavity for enclosing a conductive gel contact surface of each of the electrode devices. A conductive liner is disposed between conductive gel contact surface of each of the electrode devices.

18. Sealed package medical electrodes for use with an electromedical device comprising:
-
a first electrode, having; a nonconductive base layer having a first and second side; a conductive gel layer disposed on the first side of the base layer; a snap type connector mounted to the base layer wherein the snap type connector has a connection member projecting through the base layer and a current dispersion layer in contact with the gel layer; a second electrode, having; a nonconductive base layer having a first and second side; a conductive gel layer disposed on the first side of the base layer; a snap type connector mounted to the base layer wherein the snap type connector has a connection member projecting through the base layer and a current dispersion layer in contact with the gel layer; and an envelope arranged to form an interior cavity wherein the current dispersion member of the first and second electrodes lies in the interior cavity and the connection member of the first and second electrodes projects from the interior to a point exterior the envelope. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)
